Skill decay following Basic Life Support training: a systematic review protocol by Andrew Owen, Joseph Alderman, Emily Beesley, Jonathan Hulme, Benjamin Stanley, Thomas Burton, Harriet Percival, Nicholas Coffin

“…Bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is associated with increased rates of survival to hospital discharge following OHCA, prompting the introduction of several initiatives by the UK government to increase rates of bystander CPR, including the inclusion of Basic Life Support (BLS) teaching within the English national curriculum. While there is clear benefit in this, increasing evidence suggests poor retention of skills following BLS teaching. …”
