Brief Summary:
Bystander CPR improves survival from Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest. This study examines the efficacy of ultra-brief video training for Hands-Only CPR. Subjects were randomized to one of four training conditions, then assessed for CPR skills retention.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Cardiac Arrest Behavioral: No training, assessed within 60 mins Behavioral: Ultra-brief video; assessed in 60 mins Behavioral: Brief video; assessed in 60 mins Behavioral: Brief video + hands-on; ass'd in 60 mins Behavioral: Ultra-brief video; assessed at 2 months Behavioral: Brief video; assessed 2 months later Behavioral: Brief video + hands-on; ass'd 2 ms later Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
Bystander CPR improves survival from Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest. This study is the first of its kind to examine the efficacy of ultra-brief video training for Hands-Only CPR without the use of a manikin. The results will inform future efforts to mass train citizens in CPR. Subjects were randomized to one of four training conditions, then assessed for CPR skills retention. The four groups were 1) no training; 2) ultra-brief training video (90 seconds); 3) short training video (5 minutes) with no practice; and 4) short training video with hands-on practice. The subjects were then evaluated for CPR skills retention. One half of the subjects were evaluated on the training day, and the other half were evaluated two months later.
