    Abstract:
    We surveyed the knowledge of the 66 nursing staffs on cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and compared the results with that of 53 students of the Department of Nursing of the Asahikawa Medical College. The average scores of the test among the nursing staffs and the student nurses were 61 points and 54 points, respectively. Although a significant difference in the percentage of total correct answers was demonstrated between the two groups, the rate of correct answers of the observation items was high, whereas that of skill items was comparatively low in each group. The "Ability" defined as an indicator of capability of practicing CPR of the nursing staffs was 17% and that of the student nurses was 0%. Our results show that the CPR knowledge of both the nursing staffs and the student nurses was not sufficient, indicating the necessity of CPR education for both nursing staffs and student nurses.
