Summary

Prompt delivery of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) can double a victims chance of survival from cardiac arrest (CA), yet it is provided in less than 1/3 of witnessed events. Studies indicate that video-based education methods can effectively train bystanders in CPR. Using the education and evaluation methods of an existing in-hospital training program, the investigators will assess the CPR skills of students taught with video-only methods, with and without psychomotor skills practice, and compare them to those using a video self-instruction (VSI) kit.
