Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: Poor knowledge of Basic Life Support (BLS) can lead to hesitation in delivering prompt intervention, thus increasing mortality in people with cardiac arrest. We set out to determine level of knowledge of Basic Life Support among doctors and nurses working in a teaching hospital in Nigeria.
UNASSIGNED: Self-administered questionnaires were employed in a descriptive, cross-sectional study to assess knowledge of doctors and nurses. The overall knowledge score and, separate scores for doctors and nurses were calculated. Data was analyzed using IBM SPSS version 20.
UNASSIGNED: Two hundred and fifty participants (18-59) years were evaluated. There were more females (153, 61.2%) and more nurses (149, 59.8%). Sixty (24%) of the participants had received at least one previous BLS training. One hundred and one (40.4%) participants scored ≥50%. The overall average score was 43.6%. The average score for doctors and nurses were 45.1% and 42.7% respectively. Knowledge in some domains were very low viz: sequence in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (2.8%), compression-to-breath ratio (2.8%) and compression rate (32.3%). There was no significant difference in knowledge score by profession, gender, previous exposure to BLS training, number of years post-qualified and number of years in service.
UNASSIGNED: Healthcare workers in Nigeria have poor knowledge of BLS. They require training and re-training in BLS via creative and innovative means that are best suited for resource poor countries.

摘要：
■缺乏基本生命支持（BLS）知识会导致在提供及时干预方面犹豫不决，从而增加心脏骤停患者的死亡率。我们着手确定在尼日利亚教学医院工作的医生和护士的基本生命支持知识水平。
■自我管理问卷采用描述性问卷，横断面研究，以评估医生和护士的知识。总体知识得分和，分别计算医生和护士的分数.使用IBMSPSS版本20分析数据。
■对250名参与者（18-59岁）进行了评估。女性较多（153，61.2％），护士较多（149，59.8％）。60（24％）的参与者接受过至少一次BLS培训。101名（40.4%）参与者得分≥50%。总体平均得分为43.6%。医生和护士的平均得分分别为45.1％和42.7％。在某些领域的知识非常低，即：心肺复苏的顺序（2.8％），压缩呼吸比（2.8%）和压缩率（32.3%）。各专业知识得分无显著差异,性别,以前接触过BLS培训，合格后的年数和服务年数。
■尼日利亚的医护人员对BLS的了解不足。他们需要通过最适合资源贫乏国家的创造性和创新手段在BLS中进行培训和再培训。
