Pendidikan dan pelatihan bantuan hidup dasar (BHD) untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan remaja: A literature review
Full text linkBackground: Basic Life Support (BLS) is a crucial skill for managing emergencies such as sudden cardiac arrest. BLS, initiated in adolescence, is believed to improve individual and community preparedness in responding to emergencies. However, the effectiveness of various training methods remains debated.
Purpose: To examine the effectiveness of BLS education and training in improving adolescent knowledge and skills.
Method: This literature review examined 19 articles published between 2012 and 2025. Articles were obtained from Scopus, the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), and Google Scholar. Data were analyzed descriptively and qualitatively based on intervention methods, learning outcomes, and the sustainability and limitations of BLS training.
Results: Lectures and simulations were effective in improving student knowledge and skills. Innovative approaches, such as audiovisual media, flipped classrooms, and virtual reality, also demonstrated positive results, particularly in psychomotor and affective aspects. However, skill retention tends to decline 3–6 months post-training if there is no further reinforcement. General limitations of the study include a narrow sample size, lack of long-term evaluation, and limited practical tools.
Conclusion: Basic Life Support (BLS) education and training have proven effective, but its success is greatly influenced by program sustainability, infrastructure support, and active participant engagement. Curriculum integration, regular retraining, and further research with longitudinal designs are needed to ensure the long-term impact of BLS training on adolescents.
