Abstract
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPU) skills are fundamental to the function of health professionals, hut studies have shown them to be inadequate and outdated. This week, Nursing Standard launches a three- part weekly series on resuscitation. Parts two and three will address the associated ethical issues and measures of outcomes and accountability. The series begins with a survey in a district general hospital which aimed to establish nurses’ levels of awareness on tlx current recommendations for CPR laid down by the Resuscitation Council of the UK. The results show a poor knowledge level and recommendations are offered.
