Abstract
Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the knowledge and attitude toward cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) in some dental hygienists. Methods : A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 207 dental hygienists in Gwangju from February to March, 2014. The questionnaire consisted of knowledge and attitude toward CPR dental hygienists. The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS 19.0 program for chi-square test, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA and multiple regression analysis. Results : Dental hygienists having basic life support(BLS) provider accounted for 16.9%. CPR knowledge was 8.40 and attitude was 3.59 points. There were positive correlations between CPR knowledge and attitude including education, performance, and confidence(r=.231, r=.207, r=.377). In the regression analysis, attitude toward CPR confidence were positively associated with BLS provider certificate within two years. Conclusions : Dental hygienists had low level of knowledge and confidence toward CPR. It is important to educate BLS provider course to the dental hygienists.
