| Abstract | ||
| Background: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation training is mandatory for nursing staff, whereas the ability to respond quickly and effectively to a cardiac arrest situation rests on nursing competence. Aim: to evaluate the effectiveness of structured cardiopulmonary resuscitation training program on nursing’ competence. Subjects& Methods: A quasiexperimental design was used to fulfil the aim of the study. Subjects: A convenience sample of 60 critical care nurses who were recruited from critical care units. Study setting: This study was carried out at five critical care units affiliated to Minia University Hospitals, Egypt. Tools of data collection: were; First Tool: “Structured Questionnaire” it consists of (two parts): Part I: Nurses’ personal data such as age, and gender; Part II: Nurses’ knowledge assessment about resuscitation process and its role in resuscitation, Second Tool: Observational checklist for assessment nurses' performance of resuscitation. Results: There was a highly statistically significant difference in critical care nurses' knowledge and performance pre- and post- structured cardiopulmonary resuscitation training program. also, there was no statistically significant correlation between all personal characteristics for studied nurses and their total performance score pre- and post- structured cardiopulmonary resuscitation training program except in a studied sample's age categories. Conclusion: Improvement was obvious in the level of knowledge and performance of CPR of critical care nurses under study after attending structured cardiopulmonary resuscitation training program. Recommendation: Structured CPR training program should be available to train critical care nurses. | ||
