Sažetak
Aim. To assess football referees´ cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills and automated external defbrillator (AED) use
in a simulated sport incident scenario, afer a brief training program.
Material and Methods. Quasi-experimental study with 35 amateur league football referees. A test – retest of related samples
was carried out afer the training program. Teoretical and hands-on session lasted 30 minutes, with 1/10 instructor/participant ratio. CPR skills were measured using Wireless Skill Report sofware and AED
use by means of a specifc check list. Results. A third of sample knew what an AED is but only 8% knew how to use it. After training, all participants achieved 70% or higher CPR quality scores and were able
to use AED properly (54.2% without any incidence). Mean time to discharge was shorter for participants who accomplished
the quality goal (p=0.022). Conclusions. Afer a very brief and simple
training program, football referees were able to perform a potentially efective CPR and use an AED correctly in a simulated
scenario. Basic life support training should be implemented in football referees´ formative curriculum.
