ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the influence of elective course of emergency treatment for medical students on the cultivation of first aid knowledge and skills of cardio-pulmonary resuscitation.METHODS:
Senior students major in medicine of our university were randomly divided into observation group and contrast group with 30 students in each group according to whether an elective course of emergency treatment was given or not. All of them then received a test of first aid knowledge and cardio-pulmonary resuscitation skills.RESULTS:
The theoretical exam scores in observation group and contrast group were respectively 78.5+/-9.1 and 46.7+/-15.6. The scores in observation group were significantly higher than that in contrast group (P < 0.01). Cardio-pulmonary resuscitation skills scores in observation group and contrast group were respectively 7.32+/-0.83 and 6.63+/-0.91. The scores in observation group were significantly higher than that in contrast group (P < 0.01). The number of failure for closed cardiac massage in 60 times in observation group and contrast group was respectively 5.06+/-0.58 and 5.77+/-0.63. The number of mouth to mouth artificial respiration in 4 times in observation group and contrast group was 0.92+/-0.16 and 1.10+/-0.17, respectively. There were notable differences in the number of failure in resuscitation maneuvers between two groups (both P < 0.01), observation group being obviously poorer than contrast group.CONCLUSION:
An elective course of emergency treatment given to medical students plays an important role in the cultivation of first aid knowledge and skills in cardio-pulmonary resuscitation. It is therefore necessary that emergency medicine is included as a required course in medical college.
