Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcome will be the measurement of the acquisition of basic life support (BLS) knowledge in school-age children through a basic life support learning program. This measurement will be made by comparing the grades (scores) of the previously mentioned theoretical assessment instrument. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The secondary outcomes will be: (a) measurement of the acquisition of BLS skills for responsiveness in opening the airway and initiating/quality of chest compressions for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The instrument used for this stage is a checklist with guidelines from the European Council on Education. The instrument is made up of 13 questions that will be marked by the evaluating trainer, in their respective rooms during the collection. This instrument consists of evaluating the BLS sequence using a rubric confirming whether all BLS stages were collected and the time from the beginning of the simulation to the beginning of compressions; (b) quality of CPR - to measure the quality of chest compressions, the PRESTAN certified CPR manikin (Ultralite Manikin Single Medium Skin/Monitor) will be used, which is realistic to the eye and touch, unlike any other training manikin. CPR. Equipped with a revolutionary CPR rate monitor that allows instant rate and depth feedback for both the instructor and student. Configured according to ERC 2015 recommendations. Children are assessed according to compression depth (50 to 60 mm) and compression rate (100 to 120 compressions/min). | — |
