Summary

This study tested three ways to teach basic life support (CPR) to people who are not medical professionals: virtual reality, high-tech mannequins, and simple mannequins. Sixty-three volunteers took part, and researchers measured their knowledge, skills, confidence, and satisfaction right after training and again three months later. The goal was to find out which method helps laypeople learn and remember life-saving skills best.
