Effect of Integrated Behavior Modification with Learning Media On Motivation to Perform Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

Abstract

Cardiac arrest is an emergency condition that is life-threatening if not treated immediately. One of the causes of the increasing death rate among out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) victims is the lack of understanding by lay helpers about providing appropriate assistance. This requires an increase in the number of CPR/RJP bystanders in the community. This study aims to determine the effect of behavior modification integrated with learning media on motivation to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This research is quantitative with pre-experimental methods; there were 75 respondents involved. The research results showed that the intervention influenced respondents' motivation to carry out RJP (p = 0.000). In conclusion, it is important to increase the knowledge, skills, and motivation of ordinary people to carry out RJP, which can be increased not only through providing information but also by considering interventions to strengthen behavior.
