About this trial
Life-threatening conditions such as respiratory failure, shock, and cardiac arrest require rapid recognition and timely intervention in pediatric emergency settings. Pediatric emergency nurses play a critical role in initiating and supporting cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, the low frequency of CPR events may limit skill practice and lead to a decline in knowledge and performance over time.
Low-dose, high-frequency (LDHF) training, which involves brief and repeated practice sessions, has been proposed as an effective approach to improve skill retention.
This study aims to evaluate the effect of LDHF CPR training on the knowledge and skill levels of pediatric emergency nurses and to compare its effectiveness with the massed training (MT) model.

Treatments tested in this trial
Low-Dose High-Frequency CPR Training
BehavioralThis intervention consists of a low-dose, high-frequency CPR training approach, including 1 hour of theoretical and 30 minutes of practical training, followed by monthly brief (approximately 20-minute) reinforcement sessions over a three-month period to enhance knowledge retention and skill performance.
Massed CPR Training
BehavioralThis intervention consists of a massed CPR training approach, including 1 hour of theoretical and 90 minutes of practical training delivered in a single session, without additional reinforcement during the three-month follow-up period.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
CPR Knowledge Score
CPR knowledge will be assessed using a standardized 25-item knowledge test. Scores will be compared between the low-dose, high-frequency and massed training groups and evaluated over time.
Time frame
Baseline, immediately post-training, and 3 months post-trainingSecondary outcomes
1
CPR Skill Performance Score
CPR skills will be evaluated using an Objective Structured Practical Examination (OSPE) based on a standardized clinical scenario. Performance scores will be compared between groups and over time.
