    Lešnik, Damjan ...
    Aim. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of additional (two versus one session) basic life support (BLS) training of university students on knowledge and attitude concerning the ... performance of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Methods. A total of 439 students in three separate groups were tested: those with no prior BLS training; BLS training in high school (part of the driver's education course); and BLS training in high school (in the driver's education course) and additional BLS training at the university.Results. Our study showed the best results of BLS education in a group of university students who took an additional BLS module approximately half a year after the driver's education BLS course. In our study we observed equal levels of knowledge between the group with BLS training in high school and the group without any formal BLS education. The questionnaire revealed a disappointing level of knowledge about BLS in both groups. Conclusion. Additional basic life support training (two BLS training sessions: high schooland university) improves retention of knowledge and attitudes concerningperforming CPR in first year university students.
