Resuscitation Quality Improvement Evidence for Colleges
I. RQI-Based: Nursing Students
Undergraduate nursing students’ acquisition and retention of CPR knowledge and skills
Madden. Nurse Education Today. 2005
- Undergraduate nursing students demonstrated a significant decay of both CPR knowledge and skill 10 weeks following CPR training.
- When assessed on CPR cognitive knowledge via an exam, only 6% of learners could pass post 1-year of a CPR training course. 72% were able to immediately pass a post-test of CPR training and only 44% were able to pass a re-test 10 weeks post CPR training.
- None of the nursing students were able to demonstrate a passing score of CPR skills post 1-year of CPR training. Learners showed significant improvement in CPR scores immediately post a CPR training but showed a significant decrease in CPR skills 10 weeks following CPR training.
- The study supports existing research on the need for CPR skill acquisition and maintenance of competency over time with increased frequency of training.

The study examined the effects of brief monthly practice on nursing students’ CPR psychomotor skill performance at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months compared to a control group with no practice, and of repeating the initial BLS course at 12 months.

This article reports the results of baseline cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills performance measurements from 467 nursing students. All participants had completed a CPR course. Baseline measurements were compared to performance after one 10-minute refresher training session on the Resuscitation Quality Improvement system.
