Impact of a short training on the recognition of excessively deep chest compressions during video-assisted cardiopulmonary resuscitation: a randomized controlled simulation trial.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The early commencement of effective resuscitation is of fundamental importance for the survival of individuals experiencing out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. In such circumstances, video-assisted guidance by the dispatcher has been demonstrated to be advantageous for the recognition of cardiac arrest and the improvement of CPR quality. The present study investigates the effectiveness of a brief training program for control center dispatchers in the recognition of common errors during simulated resuscitation.

Methods

The study was approved by the local ethics committee and registered at the German Clinical Trial Register on 27th of February 2024 (Registration number: DRKS00032661) prior to inclusion of the first participant. Within a two-armed group study design, p
