Resumo:Aims: Analyse the compliance of criteria recommended by the European Resuscitation Council (ERC) in the layperson First Aid (FA) and Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) books published in Spanish.Methods: A review of FA literature published in Spain, carried out through a systematic literature search procedure.We drew up a checklist with clarifications, based on different responses to twenty categories published in November 2015 by the ERC. The validity of the questions was analysed using the Fleiss’ Kappa measure of interrater reliability, with a value >0.7 being deemed valid and questions displaying the lowest level of agreement being excluded.Results: Eight texts obtained from the limited search of materials published between 2016–2020 in the ISBN 13 database were analysed. Evaluation of eight texts ranging from 47 to 328 pages in length showed that only three included the upgraded 2015 CPR recommendations. Twenty categories/items were analysed, after exclusion of categories/items that displayed a low consistency.None of the handbooks was in total compliance with the new CPR recommendations, and only one included 70% of the recommendations. Seven categories were included in more than 50% of the texts, and nine categories were not included in any of them.Conclusions: There is a gap between the 2015 CPR recommendations and those published in Spanish FA handbooks.The ERC Guidelines should serve to standardise FA and CPR training materials. Systematic analysis of compliance with scientific societies’ recommendations for FA handbooks enables detection of guidelines and patterns ndations for FA handbooks enables detection of guidelines and patterns that need to be updated and adapted.
