Abstract(s)
Health organizations must have nurses qualified to respond to people’s different problems, which also include advanced skills in approaching people in cardiac arrest. Early and adequate intervention by nurses in emergency situations prevent health complications in adults and the older adult, as well as guarantees better future conditions for their well-being and for a healthier aging process. Aims: To evaluate nurses’ perception of the difficulties in assisting people with Cardiorespiratory Arrest; evaluate the effectiveness of continuous training to overcome difficulties in assisting people with Cardiorespiratory Arrest. Methodology: A descriptive, correlational and longitudinal study was performed, using a quantitative approach. Data collection was performed trough questionnaire was applied to 21 nurses from a Surgery Service. Results: The results of the study indicated that the training had an impact on improving the performance of the nursing team. The performance in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation was highlighted through the consolidation of knowledge by the sample, improving the training of nurses. Conclusions: We conclude that in-service training is an essential contribution to the training of nurses in Cardiorespiratory Arrest contexts, cooperating to update knowledge and develop skills adapted to increasingly technological and complex environments. Considering that nurses are the professionals who detect Cardiorespiratory Arrest earlier, there is an indisputable need to carry out continuous training and implement strategies based on scientific evidence to improve the skills of clinical practice. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
