Abstract

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a critical intervention that can significantly impact patient outcomes in emergency situations. A cross-sectional study was conducted among critical care nurses at HUSM using a structured questionnaire. A total of n=125 critical care nurses participated in the study. The research location will be at 7 ward in Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia (HUSM), which are 2 Delima, ICU Trauma, 4 Timur Depan, 1 Kristal, 2 Kristal, SICU and 1 Mutiara. These wards are the critical care ward in Hospital USM. This study was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire. Data were analyzed with descriptive frequencies and Chi-Square test by using Statistical Package Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27.0 software. Most of the participants in this study (n=75, 60%) have good knowledge on CPR, (n=78, 62.4%) have poor attitude on performing CPR and (n=104, 83.2%) have perform good practice on CPR. Age and Level of Knowledge, the chi-square test result (χ² = 33.685, p < 0.001) indicates a significant association between the age of nurses and their level of knowledge. Age and Level of Attitude. The chi-square test result (χ² = 9.554, p = 0.023) suggests a significant association between the age of nurses and their attitude towards CPR. Education Level and Level of Knowledge. The chi-square test result (χ² = 12.228, p = 0.002) shows a significant association between the education level of nurses and their level of knowledge. Education Level and Level of Attitude. The chi-square test result (χ² = 16.332, p < 0.001) indicates a significant association between the education level of nurses and their attitude towards CPR. Working Experience and Level of Knowledge. The chi-square test result (χ² = 22.609, p < 0.001) suggests a significant association between the years of working experience in critical care and the level of knowledge.
