Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS)
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of large language model (LLM)-based refresher education and video-based refresher education for maintaining knowledge and performance after simulation-based Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) training. Healthcare professionals will be randomly assigned to either an LLM-based refresher education group or a video-based refresher education group. After randomization, all participants will receive simulation-based PALS training. Three months after the initial training, participants will receive refresher education according to their assigned group. The LLM-based group will use a generative AI and virtual reality-based educational platform that allows interactive practice of pediatric emergency scenarios, while the video-based group will receive video-based refresher education. At six months after the initial training, knowledge retention, simulation-based PALS performance, and self-efficacy will be assessed. The primary objective is to compare simulation-based performance between the two groups at six months. Secondary outcomes include knowledge test scores, self-efficacy, and measures related to completion of the refresher education.
Interventions
Participants receive large language model-based refresher education following simulation-based pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation training.
Participants receive video-based refresher education following simulation-based pediatric cardiopulmonary resuscitation training.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Simulation-Based PALS Performance Assessment Score | 6 months after the initial simulation-based PALS training | PALS performance will be assessed using a predefined checklist during a simulation-based PALS performance assessment. Performance scores will be compared between the LLM-based refresher education group and the video-based refresher education group. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in PALS Knowledge Test Score From Baseline to 6 Months | Baseline and 6 months after the initial simulation-based PALS training | PALS knowledge will be assessed using the same 25-item knowledge test at baseline and 6 months after the initial simulation-based PALS training. The change in knowledge test score from baseline to 6 months will be compared between the two groups. |
| PALS Knowledge Test Score at 6 Months | 6 months after the initial simulation-based PALS training | PALS knowledge will be assessed using a 25-item knowledge test. Knowledge test scores at 6 months after the initial simulation-based PALS training will be compared between the two groups. |
| Pediatric Resuscitation Self-Efficacy Score at 6 Months | 6 months after the initial simulation-based PALS training | Self-efficacy related to pediatric resuscitation will be assessed using the Pediatric Resuscitation Self-Efficacy Scale (PRSES). PRSES scores at 6 months after the initial simulation-based PALS training will be compared between the two groups. |
