Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? Follow-up periods of 6 months and 1 year post-intervention showed participants' CPR knowledge and technical acquisition remained at a sufficient level. → Zenani 2022
q3 i? The review recommends refresher courses at more frequent, shorter intervals for optimal retention of CPR skills and knowledge. → Zenani 2022

Discussion of follow-up evidence across included studies. The shortest follow-up (Tsai et al., 3 months) showed a slight drop of 1% in CPR knowledge; the review states "it is recommended to have refresher courses more frequently and in shorter intervals for optimal retention".
"Other follow-up periods of 6 months and 1 year post-intervention showed that overall, the participants' CPR knowledge and CPR technical acquisition remained at a sufficient level."
