Continuing with their widespread efforts to reach as many people as possible, the World Federation of Societies of Anesthesiologists (WFSA) has once again organized a massive Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Workshop. The workshop entailed a short presentation on how to perform CPR. The presentation was followed by a live coordinated practical through the use of the QCPR Classroom mobile phone application which tracked the rhythm and pace of each participant and assessed their accuracy. This year, the event had massive success, with over 950 participants from 104 countries simultaneously participating, breaking last years’ Guinness World Record. One of the participating teams was our lab, represented by Dr. Georgia Mitrou, Elisavet Efthymiou and Virginia Smixioti, all of which are involved in the course Safe Exercise and First Aid.
