Teaching Children Basic Life Support: Randomized Clinical Trial

A controlled clinical trial will be performed.

School children from the age of 10 to 11 will be selected to learn basic life support (BLS) in a primary school of Zaragoza.

One of the groups will learn BLS in two consecutive years and the other group will learn BLS only the first year.

The investigators think that the knowledge will be better in the group that receives two interventions.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: SUPPORTIVE_CARE
  • Allocation: RANDOMIZED
  • Interventional Model: PARALLEL
  • Masking: DOUBLE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Control group
One year basic life support training
Other: One year training

At first, children will make a test to evaluate their pre- intervention basic support life knowledge.

Secondly, they will receive a theoretical class about BLS, based on European Resuscitation Council Guide 2015.

After that, they will make a practical workshop on BLS. Finally they will repeat the initial test. The second year, this group will only make the test, they won't receive any theory or practice.

Other Names:
  • One year basic life support training
SHAM_COMPARATOR: Experimental group
Two years basic life support training
Other: Two years training
