Objective: To envaluate the effect of public cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training in Ningnan Mountain area.
Methods: Using the method of convenient sampling, 775 people in Ningnan Mountain area were investigated about CPR and first aid knowledge by questionnaire from January to December 2019. The awareness rate of CPR, operation score, and operation qualification rate of the public before and after CPR training in the primary trauma treatment (PTC) mode were observed.
Results: After PTC training, the public's CPR knowledge score, operation score and operation qualification rate, in terms of first aid telephone, consciousness judgment method, identification of respiratory arrest, artificial respiration implementation method, effective CPR indication and extrathoracic cardiac compression position were significantly improved [first aid telephone score: 82.68±8.54 vs. 60.25±10.38, consciousness judgment method score: 79.46±10.82 vs. 58.35±9.26, identification of respiratory arrest score: 80.85±9.64 vs. 59.26±11.45, artificial respiration implementation method score: 81.54±9.48 vs. 56.47±10.54, extrathoracic cardiac compression site score: 80.35±10.48 vs. 59.56±9.85, effective indication of CPR score: 81.02±9.45 vs. 58.21±8.69, operation assessment score: 60.25±10.45 vs. 50.38±9.68, operation assessment qualified rate: 60.39% (468/775) vs. 12.13% (94/775), all P < 0.05].
Conclusions: PTC mode is helpful to improve the effect of public CPR training, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
