Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Choking Management Education for Caregivers of Infants Under 1 Year: Comparison Between Practical Workshop and Informational Leaflet

Spain63 participantsStarted 2025-11-20

Plain-language summary

Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of an educational workshop versus standard information in improving knowledge and perceived self-efficacy in basic life support. Study Design: randomized crossover clinical trial with two intervention periods and a one-month washout. Methods: * Participants: Parents, caregivers, or legal guardians of infants under 6 months of age attending well-child check-ups at three primary care centers in Cantabria. * Interventions: Participants will be randomly assigned to two sequences: group AB will first receive intervention A (an explained information leaflet) followed by intervention B (a theoretical-practical workshop); group BA will follow the reverse order. * Randomization: Allocation sequence concealed using sequentially numbered, opaque sealed envelopes. * Blinding: Outcome assessors were blinded to group allocation; participants and those delivering the interventions were not. * Implications for practice: Planned implementation of practical workshops in childcare to enhance family responses to life-threatening pediatric emergencies.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

What they're measuring

Change in the score of theoretical knowledge on pediatric basic life support (BLS) and choking management.

Timeframe: Immediately after each intervention and 1 month after the second intervention.
