Abstract
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a critical skill for veterinarians, but the most effective training methods and techniques are still unknown. In human medicine, simulation training enhances both knowledge and performance of basic life support CPR. This study evaluated the comparative effectiveness of didactic versus a combination of didactic and simulation training on performance and understanding of basic life support techniques in second-year veterinary medical students.
