Abstract

Purpose: This research was carried out to determine the knowledge of pre-hospital emergency health care personnel about peri-arrest and arrest rhythms. Material and Methods: The present research is designed as a descriptive study. The sample of the research was formed by 80 health personnel working in the Sivas 112 Emergency Health Services unit. In collecting research datai "Individual Information Form" and "Pre-Hospital Emergency Health Services Personnel's Information on Peri-arrest and Arrest Rhythms Evaluation Form" were used. Number, percentage, mean and independent samples t test were used in the statistical evaluation of the data. Results: It was determined that 63.75% of the emergency health services personnel participating in the study were male, their average age was 24.00 ± 5.12, their tenure in emergency health services was 2.90 ± 4.37 and 51.25% did not receive in-service training. It was found that pre-hospital emergency health care personnel who received in-service training had significantly higher scores with correct answers and treatment choices on peri-arrest and arrest rhythms and their related treatments compared to the group who did not receive in-service training (p = 0.03). Conclusion: Regular in-service training for pre-hospital emergency health care personnel is of great importance in increasing the knowledge about fatal rhythms and related treatments.
