Brief summary
The objective of the study is to measure accurateness of length and depth estimation of laypersons and health-care providers.
Detailed description
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.
Interventions
OTHERLaypersons
1. Participants will be asked to draw a 5cm line. 2. Participants will be asked to press a depth measuring device and resuscitation training manikin to depth of 5cm without and with assistance.
