Background: Different life-threatening accidents can happen anywhere at any time in our daily livings. In this study, the knowledge about basic life support was below average among the non-medical population. Objective: The aim of the study was to assess basic life support knowledge and its associated factors among non-medical population attending the outpatient department. Methods: An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted from January 15/2020 to February 30/2020. Systematic random sampling was employed to get representative samples. Data were collected by using a structured interviewer-administered questionnaire. The data were analyzed by using a binary logistic regression model. Crude and adjusted odds ratios with the corresponding 95% confidence intervals were computed. Those variables with P-values of ≤0.05 were considered significantly associated with the outcome variable. Results: A total of 412 participants took part in the study with a response rate of 97.4%. Among the participants, 183 (44.4%) [95% CI (39.8-49.5)] were knowledgeable about basic life support. Age of 30-40 years was 50% [AOR=1.50, 95% CI (1.15-1.97)], the age of >40 years was 2.45 [AOR=2.45, 95 CI (1.53-3.91)], being male [AOR=2.22, 95% CI (1.41-3.49)], lived in the urban [AOR=1.66, 95% CI (1.25-3.56)], being trained [AOR=4.65, 95% CI (1.85-11.67)], ever heard about BLS and having exposure with the person in need of BLS [AOR=3.02, 95% CI (2.05-4.74)], and [AOR=2.59, 95% CI (1.69-3.98)] times more to be knowledgeable as compared with their counterparts. Conclusion: The finding of this study demonstrated that knowledge score of the participants was below average. Therefore, there has to be more to do so as to scale up the knowledge of the community for reducing preventable deaths from unexpected emergency situations.

ResumoAcidentes na infância são comuns de acontecer no ambiente escolar havendo a necessidade de conhecimentos prévios sobre primeiros socorros pelos professores da educação básica. A falta de conhecimento técnico-científico adequado pode levar a condutas inapropriadas no atendimento de crianças vítimas de acidentes, acarretando em sequelas e podendo evoluir para a morte. Esse estudo tem como objetivo identificar os conhecimentos sobre primeiros socorros de professores que atuam no ambiente escolar frente a situações de urgência e emergência. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura. A pesquisa foi realizada no período de novembro de 2019, nas bases de dados: Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe Ciências da Saúde, Banco de Dados em Enfermagem e Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online, por meio da Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde., utilizando-se os descritores em ciências da saúde: “Knowledge”, “School teachers” e “First aid”. Foram incluídos oito estudos, publicados no período de 2014-2019. Os educadores apresentam conhecimento inadequado sobre primeiros socorros diminuindo a chance dos alunos receberem assistência adequada em caso de acidente na escola.

AbstractAccidents in childhood are common to happen in the school environment with the need for prior knowledge about first aid by teachers of basic education. The lack of adequate technical-scientific knowledge can lead to inappropriate conduct in the care of children who are victims of accidents, resulting in sequelae and can evolve to death. This study aims to identify the knowledge about first aid by teachers who work in the school environment in the face of urgent and emergency situations. It is an integrative literature review. The research was carried out in the period of November 2019, in the databases: Latin American and Caribbean Literature Health Sciences, Nursing Database and Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online, through the Virtual Health Library., using the health science descriptors: “Knowledge”, “School teachers” and “First aid”. Eight studies, published in the period 2014-2019, were included. Educators have inadequate knowledge of first aid, decreasing the chance of students receiving adequate assistance in the event of an accident at school. It is important to train school teachers in first aid practices, as well as to recognize actions aimed at preventing and promoting health problems in schoolchildren, aiming at a better quality of life for children.
