Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Not Applicable: Resuscitation |
Intervention | Pilot RCT. Staff randomised to: [A] Experimental e-technology education in basic life-support (BLS) with automated external defibrillator (AED) use. [B] Traditional face-to-face nationally approved training in basic life support (BLS) with automated external defibrillator (AED) use. |
