Introducción: el nivel de conocimiento en legos y personal médico incide en la calidad y eficacia de la Reanimación Cardiopulmonar (RCP).
Objetivo: comparar el nivel de conocimiento y técnicas de RCP en legos y personal médico de una universidad y un hospital de Santo Domingo, República Dominicana, durante el período febrero-abril 2015.
Material y métodos: fue un estudio prospectivo, experimental y de corte longitudinal en el que se evaluaron 30 legos de una universi dad de Santo Domingo y 17 residentes de emergenciología de un hospital de la misma ciudad.
Resultados: sin ninguna intervención 12 de 30 legos evaluados (40 %), tuvieron dominio del conocimiento básico de RCP. 12 de 17 (70.58 %), tuvieron un conocimiento básico de RCP. Por otra parte, tanto el 100 % de los residentes como de los legos presentaron un conocimiento acertado de RCP luego de la intervención.
Conclusiones: el nivel de conocimiento en una población estudiantil antes de una intervención presentó valores menores en relación con un personal médico ya entrenado. Sin embargo, estos valores sufrieron un cambio luego de la intervención realizada a la población estudiantil provocando un aumento de los valores en la comparación con legos y personal médico.
Introduction: The level of knowledge in laymen and medical personnel affects the quality and efficacy of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). Objective: Is to compare the level of knowledge and techniques of CPR in laymen and medical personnel of a university and a hospital in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, during the period February-April 2015. Material and Methods: This was a prospective, experimental and longitudinal cutting study in which 30 laymen from a university in Santo Domingo and 17 emergency residents from a hospital were evaluated. Results: Without intervention, 12 of 30 laypersons (40 %) had basic knowledge of CPR. 12 of 17 (70.58 %) had a basic understanding of CPR. On the other hand, both 100 % of the residents and the laymen, presented an accurate knowledge of CPR after the intervention. Conclusions: The level of knowledge in a student population before an intervention presented lower values in relation to a medical staff already trained. However, these values underwent a change after the intervention made to the student population causing an increase in the values in comparison with laymen and medical personnel.
