At the inaugural RQI2020 Event, Keynote speaker, Brian Eigel, PhD, RQI Partners COO, referenced several studies, including a paper written by Beth Mancini and William Kaye, illustrating that the traditional two-year training regimen is not optimal. CPR skills decay too rapidly for this long-standing cycle of training to be effective.
Instead, low-dose, high-frequency learning practices like those provided by the Resuscitation Quality Improvement program are significantly more effective at increasing competency. A shift from a traditional compliance mindset to one of resuscitation skills competency – centered on patient safety – will set a new standard of care.
