Resuscitation Quality Improvement (RQI)

Maximizing lifesaving outcomes

RQI programs provides a high-reliability platform for simulation-based mastery learning, implemented through low-dose, high-frequency quality improvement sessions that measure and verify competence, to help healthcare providers retain life-saving skills.

Innovative competency-based program for high-quality CPR and improved patient outcomes

Many healthcare providers do not perform CPR as a normal part of their daily practice, and some may rarely perform CPR after their bi-annual training. As CPR compression and ventilation skills degrade from lack of use and practice, so does the overall effectiveness of CPR. As the quality of CPR degrades, this can literally become a matter of life and death for your patients.

Fortunately, you don’t have to invest hours every day to improve and maintain your proficiency. Brief and regular practice in CPR – low-dose/high-frequency education – has been shown to lead to better skills. The American Heart Association’s Resuscitation Quality Improvement (RQI) Program is a groundbreaking new approach to maintaining competence in CPR.

"Quando abbiamo iniziato, il programma è stato motivato da dati che mostravano che solo il 25% del nostro personale era in grado di effettuare compressioni toraciche e ventilazioni alle frequenze richieste. Ci costava 500.000 dollari in più all'anno ed era difficile monitorare la conformità. Attualmente più del 90% del personale supera lo standard e sappiamo che il 100% del personale ha completato il training."
