Teaching CPR in Schools: the RCP-KNOW Project
This study tests a new way to teach schoolchildren how to perform CPR (a life-saving technique for when someone stops breathing or their heart stops). It aims to find the best approach to teach these skills in schools.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- The child must be in 1st through 6th grade of primary school.
- The child must understand spoken and written Spanish.
- The child cannot have any physical, mental, or learning issue that would prevent them from taking part.
- A parent or guardian must sign a consent form.
- The school's council must have approved the study.

This study tests whether a training program improves parents' ability to help a choking infant or perform CPR. It may be a good fit if you are willing to learn first aid for your baby.
This trial tests whether mixed reality (a blend of real and virtual worlds) can teach cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) to adults. It may help people who haven't taken a CPR class in the last year learn this lifesaving skill in a new way.
This study tests a special pillow designed to help with CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation, the lifesaving chest compressions used when someone's heart stops). It looks at whether the pillow makes CPR more effective for adults who are trained to use it.
This trial tests whether a class about CPR can help children aged 7 to 8 learn and remember important lifesaving skills. It may help young students become more prepared to help in an emergency.
This study compares best ways to train lay rescuers (people without prior CPR experience) to do CPR. You may be enrolled as a student from participating schools, and your performance may be used to improve future training methods.
This trial looks at whether using a required CPR training approach (through instruction and an app) improves learning among high school students. You may be asked to complete a short survey to help researchers understand how well the training is working.
