Abstract Objective To explore the more effective teaching method in training general practitioners with the basic knowledge and operational skills of cardiopulmonary resuscitation ( CPR). Methods 128 general practitioners were assigned to one of the odd and even number groups based on their student number. The odd number group, referred to as traditional teaching group, accepted the traditional teaching style with an initial lecture and then practiced in sub - groups, while the even number group received an additional skills assessment and corrective feedback on the basis of the traditional teaching mode, so named as teaching followed by test group. To assess the impacts of the modified teaching style on the CPR training effects, the mastery of basic knowledge and the operation skills of CPR were compared between the two groups. Results There were no statistical difference of the age and working life between two groups; the teaching followed by test group was better than the traditional teaching group with respect to the mastery of knowledge, skills assessment scores and one - time passed rate (P < 0. 05). Conclusionhe method of teaching combined with examination appears to be more advantageous to promote the general practitioners mastering the basic knowledge and operating essentials of CPR.
