All parents completed a questionnaire based on 4 parameters: 1. clarity of the content presented; 2. anxiety felt while watching the movie clip 3. reassurance related to their ability to review other times the movie; 4. the perception of its usefulness.


RESULTS

On the possibility of being able to have at home, 277 parents (90% of subjects) believed it would be very reassuring to see it back Home. According to 231 parents (75% of the sample) the vision of the movie does not convey anxiety, while 77 of them (25% of subjects) felt slightly concerned in relation to vision. With regard to the overall assessment of the movie, all parents (308, 100% of the sample) agreed about its extreme usefulness.


CONCLUSIONS
Our study opens the way for further prospective studies regarding the appropriateness and usefulness of the movie. It's also important to consider the release of the movie to all new parents and the possibility of giving first aid courses open to all those who want to be able to act with promptness and expertise if and when necessary.
