Basic resuscitation skills of medical students – a monocenter randomized simulation trial

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate resuscitation skills, defined as recognition of resuscitation situations and performance of Basic Life Support (BLS) in students at the Brandenburg Model Medical School (BMM). Methods: Participating students (n=102) were randomized to different simula...
