简要总结
Basic life support (BLS) skills are crucial not only for healthcare workers but for all lay people as well. Timely recognition of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and the initiation of BLS by bystanders before the arrival of healthcare personnel can improve survival.
There are several methods of spreading BLS skills and improve BLS skill retention among lay people. One of these methods can be educating school children. The introduction of mandatory BLS education in schools was very effective in some European countries to increase the rate of bystander BLS.
The current study aims to investigate the efficacy of a BLS training and BLS curriculum among high school children in Hungary. Moreover, the investigators would like to optimise factors influencing skill retention in this first responder group and aim to compare two types of teaching methods: feedback given by the instructor or software-based feedback on the efficacy of chest compressions during the course.

研究组 & 干预措施
Instructor feedback
BLS training participants will receive feedback from an experienced instructor certified by European Resuscitation Council on the depth and frequency of chest compressions, duty cycle, chest recoil and the quality of ventilation.
干预措施: Instructor feedback (Other)
Software feedback
BLS training participants will receive feedback based on a software (InnoMed CardioAid-1 Trainer AED, Innomed Inc., Budapest, Hungary) on the quality of chest compression (exact frequency, depth of chest compression, chest recoil and duty cycle) and tidal volume during ventilation.
干预措施: Software based feedback (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
End of training BLS skill assessment based on a checklist
时间窗: up to two hours
BLS skills measured right after the training based on a checklist including the most important steps of BLS and quality of chest compression. The assessment will be performed by two instructors and the software of InnoMed CardioAid-1 Trainer AED, Innomed Inc., Budapest, Hungary.
