Effect of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Education on the knowledge, attitude and self-efficacy of elementary and middle school teachers

The Effect of Applying Basic CPR Training by 2010 HA Guideline to Nursing Students

“…Therefore, a group with training experience showed higher basic CPR-related knowledge than that of a group without such an experience, showing consistency with the study result [10] of a significant difference depending on training experience. Whereas, there was a difference in the result [23] which was not significant in training experience.…”

“…There have been many studies concerning the effect of CPR training on knowledge, attitude, and performance confidence [12], performance capability [13], knowledge and skills [14], knowledge, self-efficacy, and performance capability [15], knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy [7] for nursing students; however, It is confirmed that there are differences in study results on the report of deterrent factors to implement CPR depending on researchers, such as lack of knowledge and self-confidence [7,8], attitude, and self-efficacy [9][10][11].…”

“…The self-efficacy points of the target group prior to training were 63.73 points, which is 53.11 points when converted it into 100 points; the point is lower than that of the elementary and middle school students at 67.5 points (56.25 points when converted into 100 points) [10] conducted by Choi using the same tool, nursing students at 67.73 points (56.44 points when converted into 100 points) [7] by Oh, the nursing students at 65.80 points (54.83 points when converted into 100 points) [18] by Lee. Although used a different tool, the target group's point was lower than students of early childhood education at 66.85 points [21] when converted it into 100 points.…”

“…However, since there is no study that measured points using the same tool making it difficult to conduct a direct point comparison. While the target group showed higher points than that of students of early childhood education at 63.00 points [21] when converted the points into 100 points although used a different tool, there was a significant difference with female nursing students at 74.80 points [17] and nursing students at 75.81 points [7], but lower points than that of elementary and middle school teachers [10] at 75.71 points. This is due to higher positive attitude points for CPR because there are more health teachers (52%) in the teacher group.…”

“…According to previous research findings, factors that inhibit CPR performance include lack of knowledge and self-confidence and while there are reports [7] and [8] that it would be difficult to provide appropriate treatment in the event of cardiac arrest, there is a close relation between self-efficacy and attitude when performing CPR with selfefficacy having the biggest influence on attitude formation that helps in the ability to perform CPR [9][10][11]. Hence, it is necessary to check the effect of CPR training on knowledge, attitude, and self-efficacy that are reported to be factors inhibiting the performance of CPR.…”
