The aim of this study was to compare the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) knowledge of hospital nurses and emergency medical personnel in Kermanshah, Iran.
This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 330 hospital nurses and 159 emergency medical personnel working in educational hospitals and emergency medical centers in Kermanshah. Data were collected using a validated and reliable ( = 0.74) researcher-made questionnaire consisting of a demographic characteristics questionnaire and the 2010 CPR knowledge questionnaire.
Based on the most recent CPR guidelines, the knowledge of 19.5%, 78.6%, and 1.9% of the emergency medical staff was excellent, good, and moderate, respectively. None of the participants had poor knowledge. In addition, the knowledge of 20.2%, 65.4%, 14%, and 0.4% of the nurses in this study was excellent, good, moderate, and poor, respectively. There was no significant difference in CPR knowledge between hospital nurses and emergency medical staff. Moreover, no significant association was found between CPR knowledge and gender, age, work experience, field of study, previous occupation, and advanced resuscitation courses. However, CPR knowledge of individuals with training in basic CPR courses was higher than participants without training in these courses ( < 0.05).
Based on the findings of this study, CPR knowledge among Iranian nurses and emergency medical personnel was in an acceptable range. Nevertheless, it is strongly recommended that nurses and emergency staff receive training according to the most recent CPR guidelines.
本研究旨在比较伊朗克尔曼沙阿医院护士和急救医疗人员的心肺复苏（CPR）知识。
本描述性横断面研究对克尔曼沙阿教育医院和急救医疗中心的330名医院护士和159名急救医疗人员进行。数据收集采用经验证且可靠（=0.74）的研究者自编问卷，该问卷包括人口统计学特征问卷和2010年CPR知识问卷。
根据最新的CPR指南，急救医疗人员中19.5%、78.6%和1.9%的人的知识水平分别为优秀、良好和中等。没有参与者知识水平差。此外，本研究中护士的知识水平分别为优秀、良好、中等和差的比例为20.2%、65.4%、14%和0.4%。医院护士和急救医疗人员的CPR知识没有显著差异。此外，未发现CPR知识与性别、年龄、工作经验、研究领域、以前的职业和高级复苏课程之间存在显著关联。然而，接受过基本CPR课程培训的个体的CPR知识高于未接受这些课程培训的参与者（<0.05）。
根据本研究结果，伊朗护士和急救医疗人员的CPR知识处于可接受范围内。尽管如此，强烈建议护士和急救人员根据最新的CPR指南接受培训。
