Audiovisual feedback devices can be classified as integrated (eg, Zoll AED Plus defibrillator) or standalone (eg, CPRmeter). This study aimed to explore users' needs and factors affecting the acceptability of audiovisual feedback devices.

This review aimed to evaluate the effect of standalone AVF devices on the quality of chest compressions during laypersons' CPR training.
Method And Result: Randomized controlled trials of simulation studies recruiting participants without actual patient CPR experience were included.
Early implementation of interventions at a young age fosters behaviour changes and helps to adopt behaviours that promote health. Digital technologies may help to promote the hand hygiene behaviour of children. However, there is a lack of digital feedback interventions focusing on the hand hygiene behaviour of preschool children in childhood education and care settings.

Design: A qualitative descriptive study.
Methods: A retrospective electronic health record review was done using manual semantic annotation.
