Keywords:

This Research and Development--R & D study aimed to (1) create and develop an innovative anti-choking training vest for practicing choking first aid skills, (2) assess the efficiency of the choking simulation vest innovation on the training of choking first aid skills, and (3) determine the satisfaction of Bangkok health volunteers in the Thonburi district regarding the use of the vest. The study was conducted in six stages: (1) reviewing relevant concepts and theories, (2) developing prototype innovation, (3) testing its efficiency, (4) refining the prototype innovation, (5) pilot testing, and (6) finalizing the innovation prototype according to established quality standards. The sample was 32 public health volunteers in the Thonburi district of Bangkok. The research instruments included an effectiveness evaluation form for the anti-choking vest and a satisfaction assessment developed by the researcher. Content validity was assessed by 3 experts, yielding values of 0.90 and 0.86, while reliability, as measured by Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, was 0.93 and 0.88, respectively. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, including mean, frequency, and standard deviation. The result revealed that (1) the anti-choking training vest was successfully developed with appropriate features for practicing both self-aid and assisting others during choking situations; (2) the overall effectiveness of the vest in improving choking response skills was rated at the highest level (X=4.64 SD=0.51); and (3) the average satisfaction score was also at the highest level (X=4.58 SD=0.42). Therefore, the anti-choking training vest is an effective educational tool for realistic simulation of choking incidents, allowing users to visualize choking scenarios and responses, thus promoting safe and effective first aid for choking situations.
