Brief Summary

Basic Life Support (BLS) is the practice performed to ensure oxygenation of the lungs and pumping of blood from the heart without medication or medical intervention in a person whose breathing and/or heart has stopped (Tiryaki and Doğu, 2018). In the vast majority of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest cases, the chance of survival is very low. Therefore, early, accurate and effective first aid application is vital (Shahrakivahed et al. 2015). The low survival rates after cardiac arrest indicate that basic life support skills still need to be developed and proficiency maintained during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (Everett-Thomas et al. 2016).

Detailed Description

Nowadays, with technological developments, the use of new presentation techniques in addition to the methods used to develop knowledge, skills and practices in health sciences education is becoming increasingly widespread .Pecha kucha (PK) is an innovative form of presentation used around the world. PK, derived from the Japanese word meaning "chat", helps present creative works with visual images. Pecha kucha is a compact and effective presentation method consisting of 20 slides, each presented in 20 seconds This "20×20" format, which requires careful editing and develops the use of critical communication skills, serves as an innovative and valuable tool that allows the presenter to dynamically and systematically present important information worth sharing to the audience. Thanks to Pecha Kucha, the presenter conveys the topic quickly and clearly without deviating from the essence of the topic. PK may be superior to traditional PowerPoint presentations in terms of learning function. PK is as effective as traditional PowerPoint presentations in retaining information. It is stated that with the pecha kucha method, information can be presented in a more concise way, without any difference in quality, compared to a longer PowerPoint presentation. PK presentation, including visual and narrative presentation, does not take more than 7-8 minutes. It is stated that teachers and students prefer this technique due to its good presentation quality, increased eye contact and visual appeal, and attractiveness. In the literature, there is a lack of studies examining the knowledge and application skills of students regarding BLS education given using the Pecha Kucha method. In addition to contributing to the existing literature, this research will also contribute to determining the effect of basic life support training given with Pecha Kucha, a current presentation technique, on the learning and practice level of students studying in the field of health services.
