Objetivo: Evaluar los conocimientos de los estudiantes de educación secundaria sobre soporte vital básico y analizar las asociaciones entre el nivel de conocimiento y las variables sociodemográficas y académicas. Método: Estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo, transversal y correlacional. Muestra constituida por 59 estudiantes de educación secundaria de una Escuela Secundaria del área metropolitana de Porto - Portugal. Se recurrieron análisis descriptivos, coeficiente de correlación de Pearson y prueba t (o pruebas no paramétricas cuando no se verificaban los supuestos). Resultados: 35 (59,3%) tenían formación en soporte vital básico y 52 (88,1%) tenían interés en realizar la formación. Solo siete (11,9%) tenían conocimiento sobre un desfibrilador externo automático y 14 (23,7%) identificaron en qué momento se debe pedir ayuda diferenciada. Conclusión: El conocimiento sobre soporte vital básico puede contribuir a obtener mejores resultados en situaciones de paro cardiorrespiratorio, debiendo los estudiantes aumentar las competencias en esta área, con recurso a la formación en el contexto escolar.

Introducción. La reanimación cardiopulmonar (RCP) tiene una baja tasa de supervivencia tras la parada cardíaca. Según el Registro Español de Parada Cardiaca Extrahospitalaria (OHSCAR), su incidencia es de 24,2 por cada 1.000.000 habitantes, con solo un 9.8% de supervivencia al alta. Desde 2005, los organismos internacionales de reanimación han recomendado enfocarse en realizar una RCP de calidad y en nuevas herramientas para optimizarla. Objetivo. Evaluar la utilidad de la capnografia y la oximetría cerebral para mejorar la calidad de la RCP y predecir los resultados clínicos y neurológicos. Metodología. Se revisaron artículos en Science Direct, Medline y Cochrane Library, seleccionando investigaciones primarias y revisiones sistemáticas publicadas entre 2011 y 2024. La búsqueda incluyó términos relacionados con el dióxido de carbono al final de la espiración y la oximetría cerebral en RCP. Resultados. La capnografía permite monitorear en tiempo real la ventilación y el rendimiento cardíaco, siendo un predictor clave de la restauración de la circulación espontánea (RCE). Valores superiores a 10 mmHg se asocian con una mayor probabilidad de RCE. La oximetría cerebral mide la saturación de oxígeno cerebral e indica la eficacia de la RCP, con valores superiores al 40% correlacionados con mejores resultados. Discusión. La capnografía y la oximetría cerebral son herramientas esenciales en la RCP. Aunque la oximetría cerebral muestra potencial en la predicción del daño neurológico, se requieren más estudios para su implementación. Integrar estas mediciones puede mejorar los resultados de la RCP. ABSTRACT Introduction. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) has a low survival rate after cardiac arrest. According to the Spanish Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest Registry (OHSCAR), the incidence is 24.2 per 1,000,000 inhabitants, with only a 9.8% survival rate at discharge. Since 2005, international resuscitation organizations have recommended focusing on performing high-quality CPR and developing new tools to optimize it. Objective. To evaluate the usefulness of capnography and cerebral oximetry in improving the quality of CPR and predicting clinical and neurological outcomes. Methodology. Articles were reviewed in Science Direct, Medline, and the Cochrane Library, selecting primary research and systematic reviews published between 2011 and 2024. The search included terms related to end-tidal carbon dioxide and cerebral oximetry in CPR. Results. Capnography allows real-time monitoring of ventilation and cardiac performance, serving as a key predictor of the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Values above 10 mmHg are associated with a higher probability of ROSC. Cerebral oximetry measures brain oxygen saturation and indicates CPR effectiveness, with values above 40% correlated with better outcomes. Discussion. Capnography and cerebral oximetry are essential tools in CPR. Although cerebral oximetry shows potential in predicting neurological damage, more studies are needed for its implementation. Integrating these measurements could improve CPR outcomes.

Introduction: Every year, five million people around the world experience an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and less than 40 % receive any assistance before the arrival of the Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Ambulance operators (AO) take care of people experiencing an OHCA, stabilize and then transfer them. In Medellín, Colombia, there is a public AO and several private providers, but the information about an OHCA and the operational characteristics during the response to the event are limited. Objective: To estimate the incidence of OHCA and to explore the factors associated with survival after the event in Medellín city. Methods: Retrospective, population-based cohort study. All the medical records of patients experiencing an OHCA who were assessed and treated by ambulance operators, (AO) of the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and private agencies in Medellin city were reviewed. Descriptive statistics were used for data analysis and the annual incidence of the event standardized for the general population was estimated. Potential survival-associated factors reported as OR with their corresponding 95% CI were explored. Results: A total of 1,447 patient records with OHCA between 2018 and 2019 were analyzed. The event incidence rate for the number of cases assessed was 28.1 (95 % CI 26.0-30.3) and 26.9 (95 % CI 24.9- 29.1) cases per 100,000 inhabitants/year for 2018 and 2019, respectively; the incidence rate of treated OHCA was 2.6 (95 % CI 2.0-3.3) and 3.2 (95 % CI 2.5-4.0) per 100,000 inhabitants/year, for 2018 and 2019. Survival on arrival at hospitals of treated cases was 14.2 % (95 % CI 5.5-22.8) and 15.5 % (95 % CI 7.4-23.5) for 2018 and 2019, respectively. Conclusions: This study portrays the operating and care characteristics of the population experiencing OHCA in Medellín city. The incidence rate of the event and the survival were lower than those reported in the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Sudden cardiac death is a common occurrence. Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest is a global public health problem suffered by ≈3.8 million people annually. Progress has been made in the knowledge of this disease, its prevention, and treatment; however, most events occur in people without a previous diagnosis of heart disease. Due to its multifactorial and complex nature, it represents a challenge in public health, so it led us to work in a consensus to achieve the implementation of cardioprotected areas in Mexico as a priority mechanism to treat these events. Public access cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and early defibrillation require training of non-medical personnel, who are usually the first responders in the chain of survival. They should be able to establish a basic and efficient CPR and use of the automatic external defibrillator (AED) until the emergency services arrive at the scene of the incident. Some of the current problems in Mexico and alternative solutions for them are addressed in the present work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Los primeros auxilios están presentes en el sistema educativo español desde hace más de 30 años, adquiriendo importancia en las dos últimas leyes educativas. En este trabajo se analiza su presencia en la legislación educativa vigente. Se ha realizado un análisis de la presencia de los contenidos de primeros auxilios y soporte vital básico (SVB) presentes en los currículos autonómicos de educación secundaria obligatoria (ESO) en España. Todas las comunidades autónomas incorporan los primeros auxilios de manera similar a lo establecido en el Real Decreto que establece los contenidos mínimos. En el primer ciclo de la ESO los contenidos están enfocados a aprender el protocolo de SVB, el número de emergencias y el protocolo PAS (Proteger, Alertar y Socorrer). En el segundo ciclo, estos son más complejos, incluyendo las maniobras RCP, Heimlich y el uso del desfibrilador externo automático (DEA). Existen investigaciones que recomiendan comenzar el aprendizaje de los primeros auxilios con contenidos sencillos en educación primaria e ir aumentando la complejidad a lo largo de toda la etapa educativa, por lo que, aunque los contenidos planteados en la educación secundaria no son inadecuados, quizás algunos de ellos son propios de la etapa anterior, la Educación Primaria. Palabras Clave: Soporte vital básico, educación física, accidentes, emergencias, reanimación cardiopulmonar, currículo. Abstract. First aid has been part of the Spanish educational system for over 30 years, gaining prominence in the last two educational laws. This study examines its presence in the current educational legislation. An analysis has been conducted on the inclusion of first aid and basic life support (BLS) content in the autonomous curricula of compulsory secondary education (ESO) in Spain. All autonomous communities incorporate first aid in a manner similar to that stipulated in the Royal Decree that establishes the minimum contents. In the first cycle of ESO, the contents focus on learning the BLS protocol, the emergency number, and the PAS protocol (Protect, Alert, and Assist). In the second cycle, these become more complex, including CPR maneuvers, the Heimlich maneuver, and the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED). There are studies that recommend initiating the learning of first aid with simple content in primary education and gradually increasing the complexity throughout the entire educational stage. Therefore, while the contents proposed in secondary education are not inappropriate, some of them might be more suitable for the previous stage, namely, Primary Education. Keywords: Basic life support, physical education, accidents, emergencies, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, curriculum.

Introducción: La capacitación en reanimación cardiopulmonar (RCP) y uso correcto del desfibrilador externo automático (DEA) permite la intervención de los ciudadanos legos en situaciones de paro cardíaco extrahospitalario (PCEH). En Paraguay, la Ley n° 5.578/2016 establece el uso obligatorio del DEA en centros de concurrencia masiva (CCM). Objetivo: Evaluar la efectividad de un programa de capacitación intensiva en reanimación cardiopulmonar y uso del desfibrilador externo automático entre representantes de centros de concurrencia masiva en Asunción julio-setiembre 2023. Metodología: Estudio cuasiexperimental antes/después en representantes de CCM (Universidades, Shoppings, Clubes sociales/deportivos Gimnasios, Consecionario Automotríz, Complejos residenciales y Supermercados). Se obtuvieron datos de universidades del Ministerio de Educación y Ciencias, de fuentes municipales y la Cámara de Comercio. Se capacitó entre 1-3 representantes/CCM mediante talleres teórico-práctico sobre RCP básico y uso correcto del DEA en PCEH con un cuestionario validado (alfa de Cronbach: 0,75). Se compararon datos con ?² y prueba t o U de Mann-Whitney (p-valor significativo =

Introducción. La parada cardiorrespiratoria consiste en la interrupción brusca, inesperada y potencialmente reversible de la respiración y circulación espontánea. Representa el extremo más grave de situaciones de emergencia con elevadas tasas de mortalidad. Objetivo. Determinar el nivel de conocimiento acerca de reanimación cardiopulmonar (RCP) en el personal de enfermería de las especialidades troncales del Hospital Nacional de Itauguá en julio de 2023. Materiales y métodos. Estudio observacional descriptivo y analítico en el que se incluyó al personal de enfermería de las especialidades troncales del Hospital Nacional de Itauguá en julio de 2023. Las variables estudiadas fueron sexo, edad, especialidad troncal y nivel de conocimientos en RCP. Se utilizó el cuestionario de conocimientos para enfermeros sobre reanimación cardio-pulmonar. Para la comparación de conocimientos entre las especialidades se utilizó la prueba chi cuadrado a un nivel de significancia de 0,05. Resultados. Se incluyeron 122 enfermeros/as, 36 de ginecología/obstetricia, 33 de medicina interna, 30 de pediatría y 23 de cirugía general. La edad media fue 37,63 ± 7,75 años, 69,7% de sexo femenino y 54,9% del departamento Central. El puntaje promedio global fue 5,55±2,72, significativamente (p = 0,001) mayor en la especialidad de cirugía general (6,61±2,39) comparado a la de pediatría (3,40±2,59). El nivel de conocimientos fue insuficiente en el 56,6% de los participantes, 83% de la especialidad de pediatría y 43,5% de cirugía general. Conclusión. El nivel de conocimiento del personal de enfermería sobre reanimación cardiopulmonar es deficiente y sobre todo en la especialidad de pediatría.

In clinical practice, it is not rare to encounter situations in which parents and families are asked to leave the child alone with the health care team in rooms full of devices throughout the performance of procedures, which at times may give rise not only to conflicts but, more importantly, emotional sequelae in children or adolescents.We conducted a narrative review of the literature by searching the digital library of the public health care system of Andalusia for articles concerning the experiences of health care professionals and families with the accompaniment of paediatric patients during health care procedures. We restricted the search to studies published in Spanish or English and conducted in humans.The review evinced the need to humanise care in order to improve care quality. The need to accompany minors is supported by the evidence from works that have analysed the factors involved in the persistence of these behaviours and attitudes in both professionals and parents. We consider it necessary to develop institutional policies and appoint mediators to compile the statements of different national and international societies, taking into account legal aspects but, above all, the pertinent values from a health care ethics perspective, and in pursuit of the best interests of the child. Resumen: En la práctica clínica no es infrecuente observar situaciones asistenciales en los cuales se invita a progenitores y familia a dejar a los menores en soledad junto al equipo asistencial en estancias repletas de tecnología durante la realización de procedimientos, dando lugar en ocasiones a conflictos, pero sobre todo con consecuencias emocionales en los niños o adolescentes.Se ha realizado una revisión narrativa de la literatura mediante búsqueda bibliográfica en la biblioteca virtual del sistema sanitario público de Andalucía siendo los criterios de inclusión utilizados, estudios que conciernen a las experiencias de profesionales sanitarios y familiares sobre el acompañamiento de la población pediátrica en los procedimientos asistenciales. El resultado de la búsqueda se limitó a estudios en español, inglés y en humanos.Esta revisión, pone de manifiesto la necesidad de humanizar la asistencia sanitaria para mejorar la calidad de la atención. Se justifica la necesidad de acompañamiento de los menores, a través de trabajos que han analizado los factores que intervienen en la permanencia de estas conductas y actitudes tanto por profesionales como padres. Se recomienda la necesidad de políticas institucionales y figuras mediadoras que recojan las declaraciones de algunas sociedades nacionales e internacionales teniendo en cuenta aspectos legales pero sobre todo los valores en juego desde una ética del cuidado y búsqueda del interés superior del menor.

La escuela es el lugar óptimo para iniciar la formación en Soporte Vital Básico y los docentes pueden tener un papel muy relevante para este propósito. Sin embargo, no se conoce los conocimientos y la disposición de este colectivo para impartir esta materia a sus alumnos. Tampoco se ha demostrado la actitud de las familias a que sus hijos o tutelados reciban estos conocimientos dentro del currículo escolar. El objetivo de nuestro estudio fue evaluar de forma cuantitativa la sensibilización, actitud y disposición de la inclusión de esta materia en el currículo escolar de tres figuras clave en el entorno educativo: docentes, familias y alumnos de los grados en ciencias de la educación. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal mediante un cuestionario ad hoc autoadministrable. Resultados: Participaron en el estudio 484 familias, 137 docentes y 42 alumnos de los grados en ciencias de la educación. Los tres grupos coincidieron en que el aprendizaje del soporte vital básico debería formar parte del currículo escolar, con carácter obligatorio y considerando la educación primaria como la etapa más adecuada para su inicio. Respecto a quién debe impartir esta materia, destaca que únicamente el 30,7% (n=42) de los docentes considera que esta tarea debe ser realizada por los propios docentes de los centros escolares. Tanto docentes en activo como alumnos de grado de ciencias de la educación afirman como estrategia eficiente para difundir estos conocimientos entre los docentes el incluir estos conocimientos en el plan de estudios de los Grados de Educación.Conclusiones: En base a los resultados se concluye la necesidad de sensibilizar y formar de manera prioritaria a los docentes con objetivo de aumentar además de sus conocimientos en la materia, su autoconfianza, hecho imprescindible para incrementar su disposición para poder instruir a sus alumnos. Palabras clave: Soporte vital básico; Reanimación Cardiopulmonar; Desfibrilador Externo Semiautomático; enseñanza; Formación del Profesorado Abstract. School is the optimal place to begin training in Basic Life Support and teachers can play a very relevant role for this purpose. However, the knowledge and willingness of this group to teach this subject to their students is not known. Nor has the attitude of families towards their children or guardians receiving this knowledge within the school curriculum been demonstrated. The objective of our study was to quantitatively evaluate the awareness, attitude and willingness to include this subject in the school curriculum of three key figures in the educational environment: teachers, families and students of degrees in educational sciences. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out using a self-administered ad hoc questionnaire. Results: 484 families, 137 teachers and 42 students of degrees in educational sciences participated in the study. The three groups agreed that learning basic life support should be part of the school curriculum, on a mandatory basis and considering primary education as the most appropriate stage for its initiation. Regarding who should teach this subject, it stands out that only 30.7% (n=42) of teachers consider that this task should be carried out by the school teachers themselves. Both active teachers and undergraduate students of educational sciences affirm that including this knowledge in the curriculum of the Degrees of Education is an efficient strategy to disseminate this knowledge among teachers. Conclusions: Based on the results, the need is concluded. to raise awareness and train teachers as a priority with the aim of increasing, in addition to their knowledge on the subject, their self-confidence, an essential fact to increase their willingness to be able to instruct their students. Key words: Basic life support; Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation; Automated External Defibrillator; teaching; teacher training

Introduction: The objective is to describe the utility of the Critical Administration Threshold (CAT) as a tool in hemostatic resuscitation in patients with severe trauma and REBOA. Methods: Retrospective review between January 2015 and June 2020 of adult patients with hemorrhage secondary to trauma with or without REBOA in a level I trauma center in Cali, Colombia. Demographic variables, trauma severity, clinical status, transfusion needs, time to CAT+ and number of CAT achieved (1, 2 or 3) were recorded. Results: Ninety-three patients were included, in which REBOA was used in 36 and traditional management in 57. The REBOA group had a higher bleeding volume (3000 ml), IQR: 1950-3625 ml vs the control group (1500 ml, IQR: 700-2975 ml) (p<0.001) and a higher rate of PRBC units transfused in the first 6 hours (median 5, IQR: 4-9); p=0.015 and in the first 24 hours (median 6, IQR: 4-11); p=0.005. There were no statistically significant differences in the number of CAT+ patients between groups or time to CAT+. However, CAT+ status during the first 30 minutes of surgery was higher in the REBOA Group (24/36, 66.7%) vs. the control group (17/57, 29.8%; p=0.001), having this group a higher in-hospital mortality rate vs. CAT-patients. Conclusion: CAT is a useful tool in the hemostatic resuscitation of patients with trauma and REBOA that could predict early mortality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Advanced heart failure is becoming more frequent and, in this population, left ventricular assist devices have emerged in the last thirty years as bridge-to-transplant or destination therapy for those with a contraindication for transplant. These devices are continuous flow, contrary to normal hemodynamic physiology, which leads to associated complications with the interaction between the device and the patient, a phenomenon known as “haemocompatibility”. One of its implications is the absence of a central pulse and the need to measure blood pressure through infrequent methods such as Doppler. Various complications are frequently associated with this and can be grouped under the mnemonic A2B2C2D2, including those specific and related to the device. Each of these must be recognized for early and prompt diagnosis and treatment, including prompt cardiopulmonary resuscitation, if indicated, to impact the survival of these patients.

Introduction: Satisfactory performance in Neonatal Resuscitation requires continuous training, and several technologies can enhance its scope. This study was carried out to evaluate the use of an educational platform by medical students in a Neonatal Resuscitation virtual course. Materials and methods: Descriptive study with the data available on the Neonatal Resuscitation virtual course platform, evaluating the use of a population corresponding to the total number of undergraduate Medicine students from the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (UNMSM) who enrolled as students to take the Paediatrics course in the last year of their studies during the years 2018 and 2019 in Lima, Peru. Results: Data from 379 sixth-year medical students in the 2018-I, 2019-I, and 2019-II semesters were included. Students entered the virtual course an average of 23 days before taking their online exam, and the average theory review time in the virtual system was 120 min. Students with outstanding performance in their scores completed 2 virtual exams, but there was no difference in the other characteristics. Conclusions: The sequence developed in the Neonatal Resuscitation virtual course, which begins with ''learn, see, and practice'', offers a greater capacity to retain the knowledge and skills acquired. The virtual offer of the theoretical component of Neonatal Resuscitation allows the use of innovative tools that make it possible to achieve a high performance of medical students when completing the virtual course of Neonatal Resuscitation. Resumen: Introducción: El desempeño satisfactorio en reanimación neonatal requiere entrenamiento continuo y diversas tecnologías pueden potenciar su alcance. Este estudio se realizó con el objetivo de evaluar el uso de una plataforma educativa por estudiantes de medicina en un curso virtual de Reanimación Neonatal. Material y Métodos: Estudio descriptivo con los datos disponibles en la plataforma de cursos virtuales de Reanimación Neonatal, evaluando el uso de una población correspondiente al total de estudiantes de pregrado de Medicina de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (UNMSM) que se inscribieron como estudiantes para cursar el curso de Pediatría en el último año de sus estudios durante los años 2018 y 2019 en Lima, Perú. Resultados: Se incluyeron datos de 379 estudiantes de 6to año de Medicina en los semestres 2018-I, 2019-I y 2019-II. Los estudiantes ingresaron al curso virtual un promedio de 23 días antes de realizar su examen en línea, y el tiempo promedio de revisión de teoría en el curso virtual fue de 120 minutos. Los estudiantes con desempeño sobresaliente es sus puntajes completaron dos exámenes virtuales, pero no hubo diferencia en las otras características. Conclusiones: La secuencia desarrollada en el curso virtual de Reanimación Neonatal, que inicia con “aprender, ver y practicar”, ofrece una mayor capacidad para retener los conocimientos y habilidades adquiridas. La oferta virtual del componente teórico de reanimación neonatal permite continuar con el uso de herramientas innovadoras que posibilitan lograr un alto desempeño de los estudiantes de medicina al completar el curso virtual de Reanimación Neonatal.

Introduction: Basic life support training in school age is a topical issue because, with adequate training, any person can help save a life. Methods: Cluster clinical trial with data collection through an ad hoc self-administered, semi-structured questionnaire. The target population encompassed the students aged 4–6 years enrolled in 49 educational centres. The centres were randomly allocated to the intervention or control group. The intervention group was trained with the RCParvulari® methodology, consisting of theoretical and practical training on the first link of the chain of survival. The control group only received theoretical training. We evaluated participants before and immediately after the intervention and between 3 and 12 months post intervention by means of the questionnaire. We assessed the acquisition and retention over time of the knowledge and skills covered in the training compared to previous trainings in both groups. Results: A total of 1327 schoolchildren (79% of the target population) participated. The level of knowledge acquired immediately after training and after 3–12 months compared to baseline was significantly better (P

Fundamentos: La formación de escolares es un tema importante en la promoción de la participación del público lego en la mejora supervivencia después de paro cardiaco extrahospitalario. Para esta formación de calidad, es necesario conocer qué es lo que saben los escolares de cara a establecer qué necesitan aprender al respecto. Por ello, el objetivo de esta investigación fue evaluar los conocimientos en SVB de escolares de 5º y 6º de Educación Primaria y alumnado de 1º, 2º y 3º de Educación Secundaria. Métodos: Durante el primer trimestre del curso 2021/2022 se realizó una encuesta a 947 escolares de Educación Primaria (n=308) y Secundaria (n=639) de entre 10 y 17 años de cuatro centros escolares sostenidos con fondos públicos de la Xunta de Galicia. Resultados: El 62,81% de los escolares encuestados recibió formación previa. El 92,30% respondió incorrectamente a la secuencia correcta de actuación ante una persona con posible parada cardiaca y el 93,14% lo hizo al orden correcto de ejecución de DEA para una descarga eficaz. El 82,40% de los escolares conocen el teléfono de emergencias. El alumnado de Educación Secundaria y los que recibieron formación previa poseen mejores conocimientos que los de Primaria (p < 0,001) y los que no la recibieron (p < 0,001), aunque en ambos casos no llegan a 5 puntos sobre 10. Conclusiones: Los escolares gallegos de Educación Primaria y Educación Secundaria poseen unos bajos conocimientos en Soporte Vital Básico por lo que no se está contribuyendo a la iniciativa “Kids Save Lives”. Palabras clave: Estudiantes; Reanimación Cardiopulmonar; Desfibrilador Externo Automatizado; Encuesta. Abstract. Background: Education of schoolchildren is an important issue in promoting the involvement of the lay public in improving survival after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. For this quality training it is necessary to know what schoolchildren know to establish what they need to learn about it. For this reason, the objective of this research was to evaluate the knowledge in SVB of schoolchildren in the 5th and 6th grades of Primary Education and students in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd grades of Secondary Education. Methods: During the first quarter of the 2021/2022 academic year, a survey was conducted of 947 Primary (n=308) and Secondary (n=639) schoolchildren between the ages of 10 and 17 from four schools supported with public funds from the Xunta de Galicia. Results: 62.81% of the students surveyed received prior training. 92.30% responded incorrectly to the correct sequence of action before a person with possible cardiac arrest and 93.14% did so to the correct order of execution of the AED for an effective shock. 82.40% of schoolchildren know the emergency telephone number. Secondary Education students and those who received prior training have better knowledge than Primary Education students (p < 0.001) and those who do not (p < 0.001), although in both cases they do not reach 5 points out of 10. Conclusions: Galician schoolchildren in Primary and Secondary Education have little knowledge of Basic Life Support, so they do not contribute to the “Children Save Lives” initiative. Keywords: Students; Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation; Automated External Defibrillator; Survey.

Objetivos: construir y validar un escenario simulado y una lista de verificación para evaluar las habilidades en la atención de pacientes hemodinámicamente inestables con evolución a Parada Cardiorrespiratoria; y probar la aplicabilidad a la población objetivo, evaluando las habilidades y la satisfacción/autoconfianza con el aprendizaje.

Participaron 14 jueces y 24 estudiantes de enfermería. Resultados: el escenario y la lista de verificación alcanzaron un Coeficiente de Validez de Contenido superior a 90. Las habilidades se desarrollaron adecuadamente, con una media de 4,71 ± 0,24 en la escala de satisfacción-autoconfianza, y de 4,83 ± 0,25 para el diseño de la simulación. Conclusión: el escenario puede contribuir a: mejorar las actividades educativas de pregrado y formación sanitaria; y subvencionar futuros estudios para aumentar la calidad de la atención y asistencia a pacientes hemodinámicamente inestables con evolución a parada cardiaca.

Background: the correct application of life support for cardiorespiratory arrest (CPR) creates a short gap between the life or death of a person, hence the importance of having the necessary preparation to perform it. Objective: to explore the training and criteria of professionals about the management of basic and advanced life support in the event of cardiorespiratory arrest, at the Canoa Health Center, Ecuador, between July 2022 and February 2023. Methods: a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out in the health center and during the time period declared. The study population consisted of 15 professionals, and included medical, nursing, obstetric and dental personnel. The information was collected through an anonymous questionnaire. The results were analyzed according to descriptive statistics. Results: almost half of the professionals were doctors (46.7 %), followed by nursing graduates (33.3 %). 66.66 % have taken basic or advanced life support courses, 86.7 % have witnessed CPR, but only 40 % have participated in resuscitation. All respondents replied that they do not have the necessary equipment to act in case of a CPR. For the most part, 66.66 % reflected a high degree of knowledge compared to knowing how to act in CPR cases, declaring confidence in acting. Conclusions: the human talent of the operating unit meets high levels of knowledge regarding basic and advanced life support.

Background: The multidisciplinary team caring for at-risk newborns should identify the risk factors for asphyxia early on. The team should be prepared for cardiopulmonary resuscitation and post-resuscitation care and have theoretical knowledge, practical skills, and ethical behaviors to minimize adverse events and provide safe care. Objective: To assess the knowledge of the multidisciplinary team about neonatal post-resuscitation care. Methodology: Cross-sectional study in a neonatal unit in Fortaleza-CE-Brazil. A questionnaire was administered to the multidisciplinary team, selected by convenience, and analyzed using the positivity index. Results: The team consisted mostly of women, aged 30 to 40 years, with a postgraduate degree, who had witnessed neonatal cardiorespiratory arrest and had attended a training course. They had an adequate knowledge positivity index (99.1%) regarding vital signs and oxygen saturation; borderline knowledge of blood gas dosage (71.8%), and poor knowledge (20.9% to 60.0%) about monitoring central venous pressure, urine output, blood glucose, and cardiac enzymes. Participants suggested using hard technologies, with only one professional recommending soft/relational technologies. Conclusion: There is a need for effective professional training, continuing education, and awareness-raising interventions to promote a holistic approach to newborn care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introducción y objetivo: La parada cardiorrespiratoria extrahospitalaria (PCREH) es una de las principales causas de muerte en los países desarrollados y un problema importante de salud pública. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática ha sido determinar si la reanimación cardiopulmonar (RCP) mecánica es más eficaz que la RCP manual en adultos en PCREH durante su traslado en ambulancia. Metodología: Revisión sistemática en base a las disposiciones PRISMA. Se elaboró un protocolo de búsqueda que se empleó en tres bases de datos (Medline, ScienceDirect y Web of Science). Se incluyeron ensayos clínicos y estudios observacionales publicados entre enero del 2008 y diciembre del 2020. Resultados: Se seleccionaron un total de 9 estudios, 5 llevados a cabo en pacientes, 3 realizados en maniquíes y 1 realizado en animales. La RCP mecánica no aumenta la supervivencia en adultos a los 30 días y disminuye la situación neurológica favorable al año. En cambio, esta última aumenta a los 6 meses, presenta mejor calidad de compresión, es independiente de los movimientos del vehículo y aporta mayor seguridad durante el traslado. Conclusiones: No existe evidencia suficiente para apoyar el uso rutinario de los dispositivos mecánicos puesto que no mejoran la supervivencia de los adultos en PCREH en comparación con la RCP manual durante su traslado en ambulancia. Por último, se destaca la necesidad de investigación acerca de esta cuestión sanitaria.

Purpose: To validate the content and adequacy of the «Rescube» training material that includes adapted information from the chain of survival. Material and methods: The study included three steps: (i) material development by 7 experts, following Delphi method; (ii) assessment of training material by 11 experts by means of a Likert score and calculation of content validity; and (iii) pilot study in two groups of 5–8 years-old: Rescube group (GR; n = 60) and Traditional group (GT; n = 60). GR was trained with Rescube and a Teddy bear, while GT was traditionally trained with a pediatric manikin. Participants were individually assessed at baseline, and one week and one month after training. Results: All content validity indexes calculated are above the recommended cut-off for analysis with more than 9 experts (≥0,80). Children’s learning results were positive, with percentages equal or higher than 80% in all registered variables at the first (one week) evaluation and equal or higher than 67% when evaluated one month after training. No significant differences were detected between groups. Conclusion: The Rescube training tool based on infantile pictures is valid and useful to train young schoolchildren in the chain of survival. Resumen: Objetivo: Validar el contenido y la adecuación del material desplegable «Rescube» con la información adaptada de la «cadena de supervivencia». Material y métodos: La investigación fue realizada en tres etapas: 1) Desarrollo del material desplegable por 7 profesionales, utilizando los pasos de un método Delphi; 2) Evaluación del material desplegable por 11 expertos mediante una escala Likert y posterior cálculo de índices de validez de contenido, y 3) estudio piloto en dos grupos de niños entre 5 y 8 años: grupo Rescube (GR; n = 60) y grupo Tradicional (GT; n = 60). El GR recibió la formación con el Rescube y un peluche mientras que en el GT se utilizó un maniquí pediátrico. Los participantes fueron evaluados individualmente antes de la formación, y una semana y un mes después. Resultados: Todos los índices calculados de validez de contenido superan el punto de corte aconsejado para los análisis con más de 9 expertos (≥0,80). Los resultados de aprendizaje de los niños fueron positivos, observándose porcentajes iguales o superiores al 80% en todas las variables registradas tras una semana e iguales o superiores al 67% tras un mes. No se observaron diferencias significativas entre los grupos. Conclusión: La herramienta docente basada en imágenes infantiles en un cubo desplegable Rescube es válida y útil para formar a los escolares más jóvenes en la «cadena de supervivencia».

La pandemia de COVID-19 se ha asociado con un incremento en el número de casos de paro cardiorrespiratorio y con ello han aumentado las inquietudes éticas en torno a la exigencia de la reanimación cardiopulmonar, así como sobre las condiciones para realizarla. El riesgo de contagio por aerosoles y las incertidumbres clínicas sobre la eficacia, las potenciales secuelas y las circunstancias que podrían justificar la limitación del procedimiento durante la pandemia, han multiplicado las dudas éticas sobre cómo proceder en estos casos. Con base en fundamentos éticos y jurídicos, en el presente artículo se ofrece una guía práctica sobre cómo proceder en los casos de paro cardiopulmonar en el contexto de la pandemia. Los criterios de justicia, beneficio, no daño, respeto a la autonomía, precaución, integridad y transparencia, se presentan de forma organizada y práctica para la adopción de decisiones en materia de reanimación cardiopulmonar.

With this work it is intended to supplement the general norms imposed by the Cuban sanitary authorities as for the cardiopulmonary resuscitation, where it is necessary to make stress, from the individual point of view, to achieve a correct performance in front of COVID-19. The cardiopulmonary resuscitation is a practice that generates particles in aerosol coming from the air ways, which increases the infection risk by the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. For the present work, the international recommendations were consulted on the topic about compressions, ventilation, electric and even pharmacological therapy in patients with cardiac arrest and diagnosis of COVID-19, in order to achieve not only the patient's well-being, but also the security of the health staff.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge of first aid (FA) of primary and pre-school teachers and the parents of children in these education stages. Methods: A questionnaire already used in previous publications was employed and consisted of 4 sections: (1) general information; (2) assessment of FA knowledge; (3) questions about FA, and (4) attitudes about FA. The questionnaire was sent by e-mail in Google Forms format to different education centres of the Autonomous Community of Galicia. The centres were asked to send them to the school staff and parents of the pupils so that they could be completed. Results: A total of 470 questionnaires were analysed (177 teachers; 242 parents and 51 teachers with children). More than half (268, 57%) of the participants stated to have knowledge of FA. In the case of the school teachers, associations were found between having undertaken some kind of FA training and teaching these contents (P = .008). Only 4 participants were able to put in the correct order the steps of the basic life support sequence, and nobody answered correctly all the questions about cardiopulmonary resuscitation. More than 95% of the sample were in favour to include FA in the school curriculum and in the study plans of university degrees aimed to train school/high school teachers. Conclusions: The majority of teachers and parents had training in FA, although they did not respond correctly to the questions related to basic life support. The inclusion of these contents in school curricula would be recommendable, but it would require training of the teaching staff beforehand. The inclusion of these contents in university study plans should be a measure to take into account. Resumen: Objetivo: El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar los conocimientos en primeros auxilios (PP. AA.) de profesorado de educación infantil y primaria y de progenitores de niños en estas etapas educativas. Métodos: Se utilizó un cuestionario ya usado en publicaciones previas compuesto por 4 secciones: 1) información general; 2) valoración de los conocimientos en PP. AA.; 3) preguntas sobre PP. AA., y 4) consideraciones sobre los PP. AA. El cuestionario fue enviado a diferentes centros educativos de la Comunidad Autónoma de Galicia vía correo electrónico en formato Google Formularios. Se les solicitaba a los centros que los enviasen al claustro de profesores y progenitores del alumnado para su cumplimentación. Resultados: El número total de cuestionarios analizados fue 470 (177 docentes; 242 progenitores; 51 docentes con hijos). Doscientos sesenta y ocho (57%) participantes afirmaron poseer conocimientos en PP. AA. En el caso de los docentes, se encontró asociación entre tener formación e impartir estos contenidos en el aula (p = 0,008). Solamente 4 participantes supieron ordenar la secuencia de soporte vital básico y ninguno respondió correctamente a a todas las preguntas sobre reanimación cardiopulmonar. Más del 95% de la muestra consideraba necesario incluir formación en PP. AA. En el currículo escolar y en los planes de estudios de carreras destinadas a formar al profesorado. Conclusiones: La mayoría de los docentes y progenitores tenían formación en PP. AA., aunque no supieron responder correctamente a preguntas relacionadas con el soporte vital básico. Sería recomendable la inclusión de estos contenidos en los currículos escolares, pero para ello sería preciso formar previamente al profesorado. La inclusión de estos contenidos en los planes de estudios universitarios debería ser una medida a tener en cuenta.
