Optimization of Quality in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Through Monitor-defibrillator With Feedback System

AIM: To verify the effect of a feedback system on optimizing quality during CPR on mannequins.

Hypothesis: The quality of CPR performed by healthcare professionals through a defibrillator monitor with a feedback system is higher than those that do not use a feedback system on a manikin.

METHOD Type of study: Pre-experimental with pretest-postest design. Sample: Health professionals of the General Emergency Service of the Virgen de la Arrixaca University Hospital (HCUVA).

Sampling type: Non-probabilistic for convenience. Variables: sex, age, profession, years of experience, last CPR training received, last time performing CPR, depth, frequency, quality CPR, perception of the quality of CPR.

Statistical analysis: Student's t for related samples and McNemar.

Treatment and study plan

FEEDBACK

Device

Once the sample was selected, a test was performed in which the professionals performed 2 minutes of CPR on the dummy without any feedback system, after 5 minutes they performed 2 minutes of CPR with feedback system through the Zoll® monitor with CPR patch -D padz training, to later compare the pretest-posttest results.
