Ghana Heart Initiative Training for Cardiac Arrest Management Among Health Care Professionals: Outcomes Evaluation Study (2019-2024) Background: Health care professionals must stay updated with the latest guidelines for basic life support (BLS) and advanced cardiac life support (ACLS) to effectively assist patients during cardiac emergencies. Since its launch in 2018, the Ghana Heart Initiative has significantly enhanced the skills and knowledge of health care professionals in managing cardiovascular diseases, including cardiac emergencies. Objective: This study aims to assess the knowledge and skills of BLS and ACLS among health care professionals immediately after training in Ghana. Methods: This cross-sectional, training-based study involved 541 and 302 health care professionals trained in BLS and ACLS, respectively. Among them, 229 BLS and 124 ACLS-trained participants completed the questionnaires immediately after the training, and their data were included in the final analysis. Knowledge was assessed using a standardized questionnaire and an instructor-led skills evaluation based on the updated 2018 and 2020 American Heart Association guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation and emergency cardiovascular care. Results: This study shows that 74.6% (171/229) of the health care professionals had adequate knowledge and skills in BLS. Those working in tertiary health care facilities were 80% less likely (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 0.20, 95% CI 0.07-0.59; P=.003) to have adequate BLS knowledge and skills than those in primary health care facilities. Health care professionals from regions such as Volta and Oti were 4.94 times more likely to have adequate BLS knowledge and skills compared to those from Bono East (AOR 4.94, 95% CI 1.17-20.80; P=.03). Over 73.3% (91/124) of health care professionals had adequate knowledge and skills in ACLS. Males were 7.05 times more likely (AOR 7.05, 95% CI 2.69-18.46; P

Didactic and Content Quality of Basic Life Support Videos on YouTube: Cross-Sectional Study Background: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is vital for improving patient outcomes in medical emergencies. Both laypersons and healthcare professionals often seek guidance on performing CPR. In today's digital age, many turn to easily accessible platforms like YouTube for practical skills. Objective: This study evaluates the didactic and content quality of CPR videos on YouTube using comprehensive checklists and investigates the association between the assigned quality scores and type of publisher, view count, and video rankings. Methods: Videos were included based on defined search terms and exclusion criteria. Two emergency physicians rated each video independently using validated checklists concerning content and didactic quality. Linear regression analysis was performed to assess the relationships between video quality scores and view counts, as well as video rankings. Results: Of the 250 videos identified, 74 met the inclusion criteria. On the content checklist, videos scored an average of 56.5%, and on the didactic checklist, they scored 66.6%. None achieved the maximum score. Videos from official medical institutions scored significantly higher in content quality compared to non-official sources (P = .04). Interestingly, video quality scores showed no association with video rankings or view counts. Conclusions: Our study highlights substantial variability in the didactic and content quality of CPR-related videos on YouTube, making it difficult to predict video quality based on likes or search rankings alone. Medical educators should offer clear recommendations for valuable videos, and the creation of new videos should adhere to didactic and content checklists to ensure accuracy and effectiveness.
