Objective assessment of cardiopulmonary resuscitation skills of 10-11 year-old schoolchildren using two different external chest compression to ventilation ratios

Study which shows that 10-11 yr olds are capable of effective CPR after a single 2 hour training session using the ABC for Life programme. However they perfrom more effective CPR when using a ratio of 15:2 rather than 30:2 chest compressions : ventilations

Is there a place for e-learning in clinical skills? A survey of undergradute medical students experiences and attitudes

e-learning is established in many medical schools. However the effectiveness of e-learning has been difficult to quantify and there have been concerns that such educational activities may be driven more by novelty, than pedagogical evidence. Where some domains may lend themselves well to e-learning, clinical skills has been considered a challenging area for online learning.

Assessment of resuscitation skills of Foundation Year 1 hospital doctors

An objective and subjective assessment of performance of CPR by 38 foundation year 1 doctors in a major teaching hospital. The study clearly demonstrated that males are more effective than females, BMI has a significant effect on chest compression depth and that females, especially those with a BMI of <24 are more effective at CPR when using a 15:2 rather than a 30:2 ratio of chest compressions to ventilations.
