Optimization of Quality in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Through Monitor-defibrillator With Feedback System

AIM: To verify the effect of a feedback system on optimizing quality during CPR on mannequins.

Hypothesis: The quality of CPR performed by healthcare professionals through a defibrillator monitor with a feedback system is higher than those that do not use a feedback system on a manikin.

METHOD Type of study: Pre-experimental with pretest-postest design. Sample: Health professionals of the General Emergency Service of the Virgen de la Arrixaca University Hospital (HCUVA).

Sampling type: Non-probabilistic for convenience. Variables: sex, age, profession, years of experience, last CPR training received, last time performing CPR, depth, frequency, quality CPR, perception of the quality of CPR.

Statistical analysis: Student's t for related samples and McNemar.
