Popis: The aim of the study is to evaluate how nurses are trained to deal with in-hospital emergencies . Cardiocirculatory arrest represents the epitome of extreme emergency since lack of perfusion to vital organs can cause death in a few minutes and immediate life-saving measures are necessary. Hence, all health workers , and nurses in particular , must be specifically trained. The study was performed in a central Italian hospital to assess the level of knowledge regarding these techniques, the relative equipment and their practical application.
