Data

Summary of Data

The collected data emphasize the urgent need for accessible CPR and First Aid education and demonstrate how innovative, mobile training models can significantly improve participation, confidence, and survival outcomes.

Bystander Response and Survival Rates

  • Approximately 70% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur at home, yet fewer than half of victims receive bystander CPR.

  • Performing immediate CPR can double or even triple a person’s chance of survival before emergency medical help arrives.

  • These statistics highlight the importance of expanding CPR training to reach individuals outside of healthcare settings and urban centers.

Barriers to Traditional CPR Training

  • 60% of surveyed individuals reported barriers to training, including cost, transportation, and scheduling conflicts.

  • Many potential learners expressed that class availability and location accessibility were the primary factors preventing certification.

  • This data supports the implementation of a mobile training model designed to bring affordable instruction directly to communities.

Equity and Access Disparities

  • Populations in low-income and minority communities are 40% less likely to receive CPR training than those in higher-income areas.

  • These disparities contribute to lower survival rates and demonstrate the need for equitable, locally based outreach programs.

  • Addressing these inequities ensures that every individual—regardless of location or resources—has the opportunity to learn life-saving skills.

Training Effectiveness and Confidence Outcomes

  • Participants in community-based or technology-enhanced CPR programs demonstrated 30–55% higher confidence and retention rates compared to traditional classroom learners.

  • Data from recent pilot programs show confidence levels increasing from 30% before training to 85% after training, indicating strong improvement in readiness to perform CPR.

  • The inclusion of digital tools and interactive instruction further strengthens engagement and skill retention.

Community Impact and Program Outcomes

  • Mobile and community-based CPR training programs achieved participation rates 40% higher than fixed-site sessions.

  • Trainees from these programs were twice as likely to intervene in real emergencies compared to those trained in traditional settings.

  • These results confirm that accessible, flexible training models not only expand reach but also create lasting behavioral change.

Key Insights

  • Accessibility Barriers: Cost, transportation, and scheduling remain the most significant challenges to participation.

  • Equity Gap: Underserved communities continue to show the lowest training and survival rates.

  • Confidence Growth: Confidence levels can increase by more than 50% following hands-on, mobile training.

  • Program Success: Mobile CPR initiatives lead to higher completion rates and greater community preparedness.
