Implication

Randomized trial demonstrates enhanced performance and confidence in CPR, highlighting improved patient survival outcomes.

Key Points

  • To assess the effectiveness of simulation-based CPR training on medical students' performance and confidence, and its impact on patient outcomes.
  • Single-center, prospective observational study with 1000 medical students.
  • Participants underwent AHA-certified BLS and ACLS training with performance evaluated using standardized checklists.
  • Confidence measured via structured surveys, analyzed alongside patient outcome data from 103 resuscitation cases.
  • Mean BLS and ACLS scores improved from 65% to 85% and 60% to 80%, respectively.
  • Chest compression, ventilation, and defibrillation performances significantly increased, with ROSC rates rising from 60% to 78%.
  • Student confidence increased from 40% to 85%.
