Abstract

Age and physical development were stronger determinants of CPR quality than socioeconomic factors. The game-based intervention effectively improved BLS knowledge and skills across all participants, demonstrating its potential as an equitable training tool. These findings support the scalability of gamified BLS programs in resource-limited settings.
