The project was coordinated through the National League

for Nursing. Funding was provided by the American

Heart Association and Laerdal Medical Corporation.

Need for CPR Skills

• Required before clinical experiences

• Nurses most likely to find patient

in need of CPR• Ability to perform is critical• Patient survival improves with

high quality and immediate CPR

Page 5: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Research with student nurses

• Madden 2006 in IrelandN=55Tested after instructor led courseCould not pass CPR skill assessment at any point in studySignificant skill deterioration at 10 weeks

Video- Self-instruction

• Batchellor et al. (2002) findingsincreased accuracy with ventilations and compressions with video self-instruction

• Einspruch et al. (2007) findingsCPR retention equal between IL and video course

Page 8: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Voice Activated Manikin (VAM)

• Immediate verbal feedbackCompress fasterVentilate more slowly

Page 9: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Instructor-led courses

• Preset course pace• Instructors cannot accurately assess

performance or correct errors• Lynch, Einspruch, Nichol, &

Aufderheide (2008)13 instructorsaccurately rated ventilations skills but not chest compressions or hand placement

Page 10: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Purpose of this study

• Evaluate effectiveness of Heartcode BLS with VAM for nursing students

• One arm of larger four arm study

Page 11: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Methods

• Experimental design• Schools randomly assigned to IL or

Heartcode BLS• 10 programs around the US• Site coordinators trained at WISER

Center• Site coordinators could not instruct• Power analysis completed to ensure

proper sample size

Site coordinators

• Hired instructors• Managed students• Maintained manikins• Managed data• Uploaded data

Page 15: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Heartcode BLS: Part 1

• Computer-based didactic component

• Video lessons teach BLS• Case scenarios

Student assesses and decides on treatmentPatient responds accordinglyAdaptive computer cognitive testing

Page 16: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Heartcode BLS Part 1

• Debriefing screens• Must pass with 84%• Students took between

30-75 minutes to complete

Page 17: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Back story

• All completed at school for this study• Print completion form with number• Tremendous backups and angst for

students, instructors, and faculty• Training site concerns…something

new• Instructors wary…

Page 18: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

In reality…you can do Part 1 at home…

Page 19: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Heartcode Part 2

• Practice on VAM manikin• Upon cycle completion, practice or

test• Must pass psychomotor portion of

BLS course

Page 20: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...
Page 21: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Back story

• Baby manikins very difficult• Prior experience folks did not

listen• English as Second Language

students difficulty• Older, very heavy or very light• Reality is…some cannot do it

Page 22: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Assessment of CPRPsychomotor Skills Post Course Completion

• Immediately post certification• Assessed using Laerdal PC Skill

Reporting System• 3-minutes each of

compressions, ventilations, and single rescuer CPR

Page 23: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Laerdal PC SkillReporter system

• Ongoing logs and study• Monitor display of

compression, ventilation, hand compression

• Visible to site coordinators• Data uploaded electronically

to statistician

Measures

• Numbers of ventilations performed correctlyVolume between 500-800 mlInflation flow rate <800 ml/secondAirway open during inflation/ventilation

• # Compressions performed correctlyDepth between 38-51 mmComplete releaseCorrect hand position

Page 29: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Study Findings

• Heartcode and VAM students had better CPR skills than students from IL course

Page 30: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Differences between CoursesType of CPR Course

CPR Skills HeartCode IL

M (SD) M (SD) p

Ventilations with no errors 16.1 (14.2) 7.6 (11.8) 0.03

Compressions with no errors 147.0 (108.3) 83.8 (108.3) 0.004Incorrect hand position during compressions 25.1 (68.8) 51.5(100.2) 0.03

Ventilations with no errors during single rescuer CPR

5.2 (4.9) 3.0 (3.6)0.001

Page 31: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Heartcode BLS group

• More ventilations without errors (p=.03)

• More correct compressions (p=.002)

• More accuracy with single rescuer CPR (p<.001)

Page 32: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Heartcode with VAM

• Significantly more effective• More ventilations, compressions,

and singular rescuer CPR without errors than students who had standard IL course

Page 33: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Advantages of Heartcode BLS

• Self paced and interactive• Concept review till mastery• Convenience• Case studies for concept

application• Extensive debriefing and feedback• Could review throughout nursing

program…• Faculty can use!

Page 34: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Disadvantages of Heartcode BLS

• Cost?• Use of IL traditionally

Page 35: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Every school needs a VAM

Page 36: Building Competency with Blended Learning: A Multi-site Pre ...

Managing this multi-site study

• 14 site coordinators• Managing randomization• Technology rich• Complexity of study and

length of time• Use of WIKI to

communicate• Discovery of data

management system

But wait…there’s more!

• Study continues for 12 months• Continuous vs biennial

certification• 2 manuscripts in submission…• Stand by…
