Interventions

A non-blinded randomized clinical trial was conducted based on two training strategies: with or without the use of a feedback device. It was carried out between 2019 and 2021 at the University Hospita
(2) debriefing of the results obtained in the previous phase and theoretical training in basic life support, followed by a post-test
(3) a second simulation of a cardiac arrest scenario, with randomized use of the feedback device by participants. The participants were divided into four groups: (1) nurses from critical care units wh

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Expected outcome1: to evaluate whether the use of the cardiopulmonary resuscitation feedback device by nurses contributes to improving the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, regardless of the professional's work unit;Found outcome 1: An improvement in cardiopulmonaru resuscitation metrics and learning was observed among nurses from both critical and non-critical units who used the feedback device during the simulation, regardless of the unit in which they work

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The scope of this study was limited to primary outcome and no secondary outcome were assessed
