A randomized, prospective, multisite comparison of pediatric prehospital training methods.

Objective: Results of prehospital pediatric continuing education using train-the-trainer and CD-ROM training methods were compared to each other and to a control group. The null hypothesis was that no differences would be found in pretraining and posttraining measurements of knowledge and performance by either training method.

Methods: This was a prospective trial involving 12 sites.
