Article Synopsis
- The study investigates whether the age recommendations for CPR training are suitable for East Asian students, similar to those for Caucasian students.
- A total of 360 students from six schools participated in a 60-minute CPR training session, and their compression skills were assessed shortly after.
- Results show that while adequate compression skills could be achieved by age 12, younger students, as young as six, were also able to demonstrate effective CPR techniques, suggesting that training can be beneficial at a younger age.
