Key result
Remote asynchronous video curriculum introduces medical professionals to defibrillation mechanics, indications, and troubleshooting.
Why the study?
The shift to virtual medical education often omitted live rapid-response and code training, an area where learner confidence and retention are historically poor.
Provides a remote, asynchronous curriculum for rapid-response and code scenario management to address gaps in medical education caused by the shift to virtual platforms.
May address virtual education gaps in defibrillation; leaves open prospective validation of skill acquisition and retention.
VIDEO ONEThe recent global pandemic necessitated a remodeling of the medical education system, with many curricula converting to primarily virtual platforms.Often omitted in this transformation to remote learning were rapid-response and code training live instructional opportunities, a critical absence given that learners' confidence with and retention of these critical educational materials is historically poor (1).To address these gaps, these videos provide a remote, asynchronous curriculum for rapid-response and code scenario management accessible by medical professionals at all levels at will.This curriculum may benefit learners as stand-alone modules or as an adjunct to current teaching methods.This series begins with an introduction to defibrillation (Video 1).

Maqsood et al. (2022) studied Cardiac arrest and defibrillation education. Video-based defibrillation curriculum was evaluated. A remote, asynchronous video curriculum was developed to provide medical professionals with an evidence-based introduction to the mechanics, indications, and troubleshooting of defibrillation.
