Introduction: CPR is a rescue procedure to be used when the heart and lungs have stopped working. There is a wide variation in the reported incidence and outcome for out of hospital cardiac arrest. Several authors described the problem of poor performance in CPR. Even when provided by medical professionals. Numerous investigations have reported the problem of poor skills retention after various CPR courses. Studies reporting the need for improvement of resuscitation techniques led to the recent changes in BLS and ALS algorithms.

Objectives: 1. to assess the knowledge regarding CPR technique among nursing students.2.  To evaluate the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge regarding CPR technique.3.  To find out the association between pre-test knowledge score with their selected socio-demographic variables.

Methodology: A pre experimental one group pre test, post test quantitative research design was used for the study.60 samples were selected by using convenience sampling technique from Rama Nursing College, Kanpur. The data collection was done using 20 structured knowledge questions and 07 demographic characteristics. Data was analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics.

Result: Result revealed that Majority of the subjects (75.40%) were in the age group of 20-22 years. 100% subjects were female. Majority of subjects 91.66% belonged to Hindu religion, 71.66% Subjects were got information from other sources. The pre-test mean score of knowledge was (8.68±2.78) and post-test knowledge score was (12.76±2.59). The students had good knowledge about the importance of CPR in clinical practice. There is significance association with only one variable as source of information. (X2 =0.034).

Conclusion: Study Conclude that structured knowledge questions demonstrated that up-to-date CPR skills in nursing students were insufficient, which could be improved by demonstration training programs on CPR. At least, Demonstration training basic skills of CPR should be a mandatory component in the all health-associated fields like medical, paramedical, and nursing colleges and faculties.
