External Cardiac Massage Training of Medical Students: A Randomized Comparison of Two Feedback Methods to Standard Training.
The most recent recommendations support learning of external cardiac massage (ECM) through feedback devices. ⋯ The use of a feedback device used for ECM training improves the quality of immediate retention of technical ECM skills compared with traditional teaching in medical students. At 3 months, the 2 groups with feedback retained a high level of performance. No significant difference could be demonstrated between the 2 feedback methods.
