Abstract

This article reports a secondary data analysis of a year-long study with 606 nursing students involving brief monthly CPR practice with voice-activated manikins versus no practice. Findings indicate that even with monthly practice and accurate voice-activated manikin feedback, some students could not perform CPR correctly. Implications of these findings for staff educators are discussed.
