About this study

The study hypothesis is that both laypersons and health-care providers will have difficulty estimating length and depth. The study will enroll 100 laypersons and 100 health-care providers. The participants will be asked to draw a 5cm line without assistance an estimate 5cm depth to measure accurateness of length and depth estimation.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Laypersons: adult laypersons without cardiopulmonary resuscitation training within 2 years
  • Health-care providers: adult health-care providers (doctors, nurses and emergency medical technicians)

Exclusion criteria

  • Laypersons: laypersons with cardiopulmonary resuscitation training within 2 years.
  • Health-care providers: health-care providers who are inactive (not currently working at medical facilities)

Treatment and study plan
