Filter by:The aim of the study is to determine the effect of first aid training for injuries given to secondary school students through serious game simulation and comic books on knowledge, skills and motivation. Hypotheses: H1: First aid training given through simulation applications affects the level of knowledge. H2: First aid training given through simulation applications affects the skill level. H3: First aid training given with simulation application affects motivation. H4: First aid training given with comics affects the level of knowledge. H5: First aid training given with comic books affects the skill level. H6: First aid training given with comics affects motivation. METHOD: The research will be conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study with a pre-test-post-test design with children studying in the 5th and 6th grades of schools in the central district of Aksaray. One group will be given first aid training for injuries prepared with serious games, the other group will be given first aid training for injuries prepared with comic books. No intervention will be made to the control group. Serious game scenario software prepared based on the literature will be integrated into the computer. Appropriate statistics will be made after the research by applying the prepared data collection tools. With this research, the gap in the literature will be filled, children's first aid knowledge and skills in injuries will be increased, and school health nurses will be provided with up-to-date teaching material.
Aim: The aim of this study, evaluating the effects of different simulation methods (virtual reality assisted simulation, high reality simulation, low reality simulation) used in Adult Basic Life Support (BLS) training on knowledge, skills, self-efficacy and satisfaction characteristics in Layperson First Aider
The aim of this project was to determine the effect of the burn prevention and first aid mobile application developed for families living in tent cities and container houses after the earthquake on the burn prevention and first aid knowledge of families and the development of burns in the first two months after the mobile application. The research was planned as a prospective, two-arm (1:1), randomized controlled trial. The study population will consist of families living in tent cities and container houses in Şanlıurfa. As a result of the power analysis performed in the G*Power program, the sample group will consist of 30 families from the tent city and 30 families from the container city, taking into account the losses with a power of 90% and a maximum bidirectional 5% type error. All of the families (30 mobile application-study group; 30 control group) who make up the sample of the research will be given a training (powerpoint presentation) prepared by the researcher in line with the literature, and burn prevention and first aid practices will be explained and their questions will be answered. Then, the training to be given with the mobile application will be downloaded to the phones of the families in the experimental group and the training will continue through the application. In the study, data will be collected with the "Descriptive Characteristics Form", "Information Form on Burn Prevention and First Aid" and "Burn Development Follow-up Form", which include the descriptive information of the families. The data obtained from the study will be analyzed in computer environment.
Background: First aid skills are clinical performance ability requiring a higher level of skills for new nurses. At present, the focus of first aid-related teaching materials and methods remain on books and physical courses. E-books have not yet been applied to first aid skills training for new nurses despite their advantage of making reading, learning, and reviewing available at any time. Objective: To assess the effect of receiving interactive first aid e-book interventions on new nurses in a medical center in southern Taiwan in respect of first aid knowledge, self-efficacy, and first aid skills. Methods: A two-group three-time repeated measures experimental design was adopted. 70 qualified new nurses were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group, each composed of 35 nurses. The experimental group received a one-hour e-book course plus one month of first aid e-book intervention and regular training, whereas the control group only received one month of regular training. Performance indicators included administering the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) on first aid skills, and questionnaires for knowledge and self-efficacy related to first aid skills. The experimental group received qualitative interviews and filled out the system usability scale one month after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the independent samples t-test, chi-squared test, paired samples t-test, and generalized estimating equations (GEE).
The investigators will evaluate the effect of simulation-based education in First Aid practice on knowledge and skills retention.
This research is a response to problems with Cardiovascular Disease in Colombia, where circulatory system diseases are the first cause of mortality in the adult population, making them a critical issue for the country. It is known that around 70% of cardiac arrests occur outside health institutions, generally at home or on public roads. To reduce these high mortality rates, international recommendations were issued to establish strategies to train the general population in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, especially school-age children. This constitutes a key stage for initiating learning. This condition significantly favors learning and preserving the acquired knowledge for the rest of their life. Based on the reasons above, this pilot project seeks to be the first approach at the national level to train second-grade elementary school children in Basic Life Support. This training will describing the step by step experiences of the participants, focusing on: project viability related to recruitment and follow-up, acceptability, the experience of participation from the educational community, and the effects of implementing the intervention on the knowledge and skills in the child population. A virtual protocol will be implemented (adapted to the current situation generated by the Coronavirus pandemic), and will be developed through didactic methodologies in three 60-minute educational sessions, during regular class hours.
The study aims to assess the effect of first aid from bystanders on survival, admission length, and need of ICU-stay for trauma victims.
