Can a game make learning CPR stick? nursing students put web app to the test
NCT ID NCT07689422
First seen Jul 08, 2026 · Last updated Jul 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study explores whether a web-based gamification app can improve nursing students' knowledge and skills in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). About 86 students will use the app, which includes practice questions, a timer, and a leaderboard to track scores. Researchers will measure knowledge before and after the training, and assess skill retention later. The goal is to see if gamified learning leads to better long-term recall and practical ability compared to traditional methods.
