This study aimed to compare the education effect of easily accessible cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) applications on smart-phones. The differences of performance and accuracy of CPR between animation CPR group and modified Pocket CPR group in Reserve Officers' Training Corps students of K university were evaluated by 2010 AHA guidelines. Data were collected from May 19, 2012 to May 20, 2012. There was no statistically significant difference between both of group in the performance and accuracy of CPR. However, the modified Pocket CPR group showed significant increase in the accuracy of chest compression depth (26.4%, p<.05), while the animation CPR group showed significant increase in the accuracy of chest compression location after the education (25.2%, p<.01). In conclusion, the methods using advantage and complementing disadvantage of animation CPR application and Pocket CPR application could help that people could easily access and perform to CPR.

The purpose of this study was to examine the understanding of contents and the convenience of use of the DNR animation mobile electronic informed consent. The subjects in this study were inpatients of long-term care hospital. As for data analysis, a statistical package SPSS 21.0K was employed. The findings of the study were as follows: First, DNR choice was 33.0%, CPR choice was 54.0% in case of the outbreak of cardiac arrest. Their principal diagnosis made statistically significant differences to their choice of DNR and CPR. Second, they got 2.50 in the understanding of the content of the DNR electronic informed consent, and got 2.37 in the convenience of use. Given the findings of the study, the DNR animation electronic informed consent is expected to help patients to have a better understanding of contents, to make their decision to choose DNR or CPR, and to sign the DNR informed consent forms themselves.
