Summary

The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of telephone assistance and standardized basic life support courses on the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the use of automated external defibrillator (AED).

The investigators hypothesize that bystanders can provide compressions in correct frequency and use an AED correctly as well as safely from telephone instructions but that correct and successful ventilations including correct open airway require training on a course.
