Summary

This study aims to evaluate the change in attitudes and knowledge about basic cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR-B) in football professionals following a training intervention and to examine its correlation with sociodemographic variables. The study consists of two phases. The first phase involves an observational cross-sectional study to assess the level of attitude and knowledge in cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The second phase includes an educational intervention consisting of a training and practical session on CPR-B, with a pre-post intra-subject control. The questionnaire was completed by football professionals from the Spanish first division and their coaches, with N=206 in the first phase and N=70 30 days after the training intervention in the second phase.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	PCR Trainning	A two-hour training intervention was conducted by a CPR-B instructor. The first 30 minutes were dedicated to explaining how to recognize a cardiopulmonary arrest, the correct technique for chest compressions, ventilations, and AED use. The remaining 90 minutes were for practical application of the intervention. This was conducted with five CPR-B training torsos (Little Anne QCPR training mannequin, Laerdal) and a simulated AED for CPR training (AED Practi-Trainer - Bilingual, WNL). Both theoretical and practical training were provided by a basic life support instructor from the Spanish Society of Intensive Care Medicine and Coronary Units (SEMICYUC), instructing participants under the 2021 European Resuscitation Council (ERC) recommendations.
