Abstract

Numerous studies have shown that student nurses do not have enough understanding of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Because of this, the researcher made the decision to investigate the real reason for these gaps in knowledge. It's possible that a lack of quality instruction contributed to their development as well. As a result, the investigator made the decision to find out how much nursing professors in Uttar Pradesh knew about the American Heart Association (AHA) Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Emergency Cardiovascular Care. This was done at a few different nursing schools and colleges in Uttar Pradesh (ECC). The researcher decided to go with a descriptive study design, and the survey technique was the one that was employed to evaluate the participants' levels of knowledge. In this particular research, a method known as purposive sampling was used. The number of nursing instructors in the sample was 200. The demographic proforma and the knowledge questionnaire are the devices that were used for the gathering of data. Age, gender, qualifications, designation, and years of teaching experience are some of the components that make up demographic data.
