q2 i? Real-time feedback devices improved pediatric resuscitation quality while increasing subjective workload and shifting visual attention from the manikin to the device. → Sabery Mahdieh 2026

Evidence¶

Sabery Mahdieh, Batooli Zahra, Sabbarifard Ebrahim, Ghaffari Faezeh. (2026). Simulation-based feedback systems in cardiopulmonary resuscitation training: a scoping review. BMC Emergency Medicine. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12873-026-01553-4

q2 · i? · review · r3

Narrative synthesis citing Wagner et al. (2022), which investigated the effect of feedback devices on visual attention and pediatric resuscitation quality; the review states the workload increase was small and did not interfere with resuscitation quality.

"Moreover, feedback improved team coordination and reduced compression gaps, although it slightly increased workload and caused some visual attention to shift from the patient to the device [41]."
