Teaching Methodologies for First Aid in Physical Education in Secondary Schools: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT: Background: First aid training in secondary education enhances emergency preparedness and supports public health. Despite its inclusion in many school curricula, there is no consensus on the most effective teaching methodologies. This systematic review aims to compare instructional strategies used in first aid training during Physical Education and evaluate their impact on students' knowledge, practical skills, and confidence. Methods: A systematic review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA 2020 guidelines. Six databases (SCOPUS, Web of Science, ERIC, DIALNET, MEDLINE, and PsycINFO) were searched up to December 2024. Eligible studies were quasi-experimental or observational, involved students aged 11-18, and focused on first aid instruction within Physical Education. Meth
