Description
Summary:An abstract of a study by Lyman et al comparing the quality of compression-only cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) among students who declared majors in allied health care professions and were currently certified in CPR to students who identified as non-allied health care majors is presented. The omnibus MANOVA was significant, Wilks' Lambda = .006, F (5, 53) = 999.660 P < 0.001. Univariate tests showed overall score mean differences between groups were significant [F (2, 57) = 32.645, P < 0.001]. Tukey post hoc adjustments were applied; examining between group differences for overall score. Mean differences (MD) between groups are as follows: Groups 1 and 2 (MD = .268, P = 0.006), Groups 1 and 3 (MD = .3995, P < 0.001), Groups 2 and 3 (MD = .6675 P < 0.001).
