Effects of a Simulation-Based CPR Training Program on Knowledge, Performance, and Stress in Clinical Nurses
Background:
Rapid and accurate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) performed by clinical nurses plays an important role in increasing the survival rate of cardiac arrest patients in the hospital.
Purpose:
This study examined the effects of a simulation-based CPR training program on knowledge, performance, and stress of CPR in clinical nurses.
Method:
A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design was used. Study participants included 60 clinical nurses (experimental group, n = 30, and control group, n = 30) in a general hospital in Seoul, South Korea. A 4-hour simulation-based CPR training program was conducted. Measures included the knowledge scale and performance scale from the Korean Association of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and the Post Code Stress Scale in Korean.
Results:
The simulation-based CPR training program significantly improved CPR knowledge (t = 4.664, p < .001) and performance (t = 4.940, p < .001), and decreased stress (t = -5.832, p < .001) in clinical nurses.
Conclusion:
These findings indicate a simulation-based CPR training program was effective in improving knowledge and performing CPR, as well as in decreasing stress of CPR in clinical nurses. [J Contin Educ Nurs. 2020;51(5):225-232.].
