Summary

This study compares three ways to help untrained bystanders perform CPR: a paper guide, a first aid app, and a small device (CorPatch®) that gives real-time feedback on chest compressions. 150 adults aged 18-70 who took a CPR course in the last 10 years will practice on a mannequin in a public place. The goal is to see which tool helps start effective chest compressions fastest.
