Abstract
This study aimed to identify the effects of Basic Life Support course for healthcare providers on the knowledge and attitude of the health science college students. The study was a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent pre-post test. The subjects included 140 health science college students from a D college in D city. BLS course for healthcare providers was given to the experimental group from August 3 to August 29, 2010. The knowledge and attitude of cardiopulmonary resuscitation were measured. The data were analyzed with ${\chi}^2$ test, Fisher's exact test, independent t-test, paired t-test and ANCOVA using the SPSS/PC 12.0 win. For the CPR knowledge, a significant increase was observed in the experimental group (F=47.227, p<.001). For the CPR attitude, the experimental group were significantly increased compared to the control group (F=40.204, p<.001). The study showed that BLS Course for Healthcare Providers has positive effects on CPR knowledge and attitude for the health science college students. Subject related to CPR through the division of health science needs to be recommended and systemic and standard educational programs should be developed.
