“…This result aligns with ndings from pre-test surveys conducted by 11 − 10 where the majority of respondents provided incorrect responses regarding the frequency of chest compressions in CPR, indicating a lack of knowledge in CPR. It is also consistent with other studies that have revealed concerning knowledge gaps and skill de ciencies among nurses 10,11 . The prevalent misconception among nurses regarding the recommended compression frequency in CPR underscores the urgent need for targeted training interventions.…”

“…Proper hand placement is crucial for the effectiveness of CPR, and an incorrect approach can signi cantly impact the survival rate of cardiac arrest patients. This nding aligns with previous studies that emphasize the importance of continuous training and periodic refresher courses in CPR 10,11 . The signi cant number of emergency department nurses with inconsistent knowledge about the initiation and correct technique of CPR highlights the need for targeted training programs.…”

“…The signi cant knowledge gap among nurses regarding the algorithm for basic resuscitation in adults underscores the urgent need for ongoing and reinforced training programs. Insu cient education in BLS may impede nurses' ability to respond effectively in emergency situations, highlighting the importance of consistent and accessible training 10,11 to enhance their skills and retain knowledge. The majority of nurses (n = 47) correctly identi ed the carotid artery as the location to check for the pulse in adults.…”

Background Road traffic accidents represent a global health challenge, with approximately 1.3 million fatalities annually, and a staggering 93% of these incidents occurring in low- and middle-income countries. Purpose This research focuses on evaluating the level of emergency preparedness in trauma management in the Central Region of Ghana, considering the high prevalence of road traffic accidents in low- and middle-income countries. Methods The study utilized a quantitative research design, specifically a cross-sectional survey, to collect data from three public health facilities in the Central Region. All 65 nurses working in the emergency departments of these hospitals were included in the study using a census approach. A structured questionnaire consisting of checklists, true/false items, and multiple-choice questions (MCQs) was used for data collection. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression. Results The results revealed that nurses in the Accident and Emergency department had moderate knowledge in the initial assessment and resuscitation of patients, including CPR. However, the study also identified gaps in CPR knowledge among nurses working in the emergency department. Conclusion The findings highlight the need for further study and training in triaging for nurses, as well as regular refresher courses and hands-on training opportunities to enhance their skills.

“…While it is ideal for everyone to know BLS and CPR, medical professionals should be required to have this knowledge in order to work in this sector (9) . Several studies were conducted to assess and improve basic knowledge of medical and para-medical personnel about BLS (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16) .…”

Background: Pediatric cardiac arrest in the out-of-hospital setting is a traumatic event for family, friends, classmates, and school personnel. Children who receive immediate bystander cardiopulmonary resuscitation showed improved survival dramatically. Aim: to improve the baseline knowledge and practice of pediatric basic life support among university students who will be responsible for children during their work. Subjects and methods: This is a cross sectional study of representative sample of students in the first year from the Faculties of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry and Education at Suez Canal University. After and before efficacy study of training program assessing knowledge and practice of Pediatric Basic Life Support (PBLS) was done through online questionnaire to prevent grouping during the time of COVID19 pandemic. Results: The main outcome of the study was that the overall knowledge score increased significantly after the workshop 6.07±1.7 comparing with before the workshop 4.67±1.6 (P <0.001) and the overall practice score increased significantly after the workshop 5.65±1.7 comparing with before the workshop 3.97±1.5 proving that the web-based learning and video-based self-learning are successful in improving the knowledge and practice of the trainee. Conclusion: Overall, there was a significantly improvement of all participants regarding the knowledge and practice of the pediatric life support (PBLS).
