Sponsor's own description
Cardio vascular disease (CVD) including out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is still the leading cause of death in a global perspective. Start of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with automated external defibrillator (AED) may double or quadruple survival. Scientific research on education in Basic Life Support (BLS) in the society is active in different part of Europe but low in Sweden. The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and retention after different training interventions in BLS and willingness to act in a real-life cardiac arrest situation in the society of Sweden, based on European Resuscitation Council (ERC) guidelines. This is an experimental cluster randomized trial, including participants from a BLS education project in Sweden.
