AB The acquisition of competencies in basic life support (BLS) among university studentsof health sciences requires specific and updated training; therefore, the aim of this review wasto identify, evaluate, and synthesise the available scientific knowledge on the effect of training incardiorespiratory resuscitation in this population. A comprehensive literature search was conductedin MEDLINE, CUIDEN, Web of Science, Wiley Online Library, CINAHL, and Cochrane, including allrandomised clinical trials published in the last ten years that evaluated basic life support trainingmethods among these students. We selected a total of 11 randomissed clinical trials that met theinclusion criteria. Participants were nursing and medicine students who received theoretical andpractical training in basic life support. The studies showed a great heterogeneity in training methodsand evaluators, as did the feedback devices used in the practical evaluations and in the measurementof quality of cardiorespiratory resuscitation. In spite of the variety of information resulting from thetraining methods in basic life support, we conclude that mannequins with voice-guided feedbackproved to be more effective than the other resources analysed for learning.
