Pedagogical Implementation of Directive Feedback Manikins on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Competencies: Expert Versus Peer Coaching

Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Clinical Trial
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Directive feedback manikins in resuscitation training evolved faster than the pedagogical evidence. Educators and learning systems must seek clarification on the efficacy of this technology to have evidence-based practices. This project explores directive feedback device use in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) education for laypersons. METHODS: A prospective nonrandomized-controlled design assessed two pedagogical approaches of directive feedback manikins in adult CPR lessons. The 230 participants were distributed between three groups: a control group without directive feedback manikins (no lights, NL), an expert coaching (EC) group with directive feedback and educator interpretation, and a peer coaching (PC) group with directive feedback, peer interpretation, and expert quality assurance. RESULTS: = .249). A chi-square test showed no significant association between groups and CPR skill feedback, or between groups and "recommending the course to a friend or family member." The PC group was more likely to agree that they could "coach someone to do CPR skills" than the NL or EC. CONCLUSIONS: This study expands the knowledge base of directive feedback manikins in a pedagogical setting to improve CPR competencies. Training organizations may consider any of these practices effective, choosing those that align with desired outcomes. CPR educators need orientation to feedback devices as well as professional development on educational options for their use. Considerations for further research include technology costs, access, and cultural aspects of implementing these tools.
