About this study

This study aims to compare the effect of conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training and CPR training with added virtual reality (VR) on trainee self-efficacy.

Read the detailed description

This study aims to compare the conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training program (HEROS CPR training program) with the HEROS VR (virtual reality) CPR training program to which the newly developed VR curriculum was added. The experimental group is the HEROS VR training group, and CPR training is conducted for approximately 60 minutes for 6 to 8 trainees per training. At the start and the end of the training, students are taught about cardiac arrest, recognition of emergency situations, and reporting to 119 by watching VR, and in the middle part, they practice chest compressions by watching conventional HEROS video. The control group is the existing HEROS training group. To control variables, the number of trainees per training was limited to 6 to 8, and the existing video-based CPR training was implemented. The investigators will conduct a Modified Basic Resuscitation Skills Self-Efficacy scale survey before and after training to compare the difference in the improvement of trainees' self-efficacy evaluation of CPR after CPR training in the HEROS VR curriculum and the existing HEROS curriculum.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Modified Basic Resuscitation Skills Self-Efficacy scale

    Modified Basic Resuscitation Skills Self-Efficacy scale (Modified BRS-SES):

    The scale consists of 8 questionnaires with a 5-point Likert scale. After aggregating the scores, the score is converted to a scale of 100 points, with a minimum score of 20 and a maximum of 100. A higher score indicates a higher level of self-efficacy.

    Measured: Immediately before training and immediately after the training program

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. System Usability Scale

    System Usability Scale for VR device:

    The scale consists of 10 item questionnaire with five response options from strongly agree to strongly disagree. The results of the 10 questions are aggregated and converted to a score out of 100. The higher the score the higher the usability.

    Measured: Immediately after the VR training program
