Obstacles to teaching basic life support in secondary education: teachers' beliefs and knowledge
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the beliefs and knowledge of secondary school teachers regarding the teaching of resuscitation, since in Spain, in the context of health education in secondary schools, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the use of the external defibrillator (AED) are not systematically trained, despite the fact that cardiac arrest is a very relevant health problem. The ex post facto research was carried out which 48 teachers participated. A complexity hypothesis was defined for each of the categories: conceptualization of basic life support (BLS), identification of the target population, didactic transposition, and the role of teachers. Univariate and multivariate statistical analysis was performed. Only 20% of the participants considered that semiautomatic external defibrillation is a technique that must be included in the BLS and the areas of knowledge of the teaching staff was related to this conception, according to the multiple regression analysis; 76.1% of the participants considered that the training should be mandatory by law (median 5, IQR 1), but it is the health professionals who should provide the training (median 5, IQR 0). In conclusion, conception expressed by teachers about BLS could be an obstacle to the development of these competencies in the classroom and, therefore, it could hinder the universalization of these techniques.
