Effectiveness of the VDO Interactive CPR Game on Retention of Knowledge and Skills in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation of Public Health Volunteers
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effectiveness of interactive video CPR games and examine the effects on the retention of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) knowledge and skills among public health volunteers. The sample was 50 public health volunteers who were selected and equally divided into the experimental group (25 cases) and the control group (25 cases). The experimental group received basic life support (BLS) training, a BLS manual, and interactive video CPR games. The control group received BLS training along with additional self-study resources. Instruments were 1) interactive video CPR games, 2) a BLS manual, 3) an assessment questionnaire on BLS knowledge and skills, and 4) a satisfaction assessment of interactive video CPR game usage form. The content validity of the interactive video CPR games was .88. The video performance assessed by the expert was 3.36 and the video efficiency criteria was 80/80. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitey U test and Wilcoxon signed ranks test.
The results revealed that the interactive video CPR games were highly effective. The highest level of satisfaction was 60% of the video viewers. After one month of training, the group of public health volunteers who played the interactive video CPR games achieved a significantly higher score of CPR knowledge and skill than the control group (p-value < .05). Research results indicated that the interactive video CPR games were highly effective, delivered user satisfaction, and impacted the retention of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) knowledge and abilities among public health volunteers.
