This finding comes from the thematic synthesis of a mixed-method systematic review that included 160 studies (154 quantitative, 3 qualitative, 3 mixed method) on feedback in cardiac arrest simulation education. The review's first theme states that "All feedback, whether human or device-based, improves performance." No pooled effect size is reported for this theme.

"All feedback, whether human or device-based, improves performance."

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Objective, device-based feedback is preferred in cardiac arrest simulation education — reports the opposite
• Feedback and debriefing are the most important educational components of simulation-based learning in cardiac arrest education — a broader claim this one bears on
• Feedback from trained humans was in some settings as effective as mechanical feedback devices for CPR quality — related
• Current cardiac arrest simulation feedback literature primarily focuses on technical skills measured quantitatively, with limited research on non-technical aspects — related
