Summary

This is a prospective study of 7th grade students participating in the CPR Anytime® program. After consent, participants will be asked to complete the program with their parent(s)/legal guardian(s) and encouraged to include other friends and family members in the program. After completing the program, the participant and their parent(s) will be evaluated for adequacy of chest compressions/CPR. The student participants will be evaluated again at 6 months for adequacy of chest compressions/CPR

Objectives:

1. To evaluate 7th grade students for adequacy of CPR and chest compressions after completing a take home CPR course
2. To evaluate the multiplier effect of students training in CPR with their parents/family members using a take home CPR instructional kit
3. To evaluate the participating parent for adequacy of CPR and chest compressions after completing a take home CPR course

Research Hypothesis:

1. 7th grade students can be trained, using CPR Anytime®, to perform adequate chest compressions/CPR and their skills will be maintained at 6 months
2. As part of the multiplier effect, an additional 1.5 family members per participant will be trained to perform adequate chest compressions/CPR
