    Area of Science:

    • Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a critical skill for healthcare providers, essential for patient survival and positive health outcomes.

    Background:

    • Studies indicate that cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills among health professionals are often inadequate and outdated.
    • There is a need to assess and improve the current understanding and application of CPR guidelines.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate nurses' awareness of current cardiopulmonary resuscitation (UK) recommendations.
    • To identify knowledge gaps in CPR guidelines among hospital nurses.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey was conducted in a district general hospital.
    • The survey assessed nurses' knowledge of the Resuscitation Council of the UK's CPR guidelines.

    Main Results:

    • The study revealed a poor level of knowledge regarding current CPR recommendations among nurses.
    • Significant gaps were identified in nurses' awareness of established CPR protocols.

    Conclusions:

    • Nurses demonstrated inadequate knowledge of current cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) guidelines.
    • Recommendations are provided to improve CPR training and adherence to UK standards.
