Overview

The cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the hospital is basic knowledge and duty for every physician. Because of intensive advancement in thisarea the physicians can’t do without regular renewal of their knowledge. Unfortunately there is no system of regular cyclic training in CPR in the mostof our hospitals. Technical equipment of hospitals is outdated and hospital staff uses old methods. The University Hospital Olomouc has started regularcompulsoryCPRtraining in 2000. The training courses run in theCPRpostgraduate training centre in the Department of Anaesthesiology and IntensiveCare. The test in the beginning of the courses showed insufficient physicians’ knowledge in this area (the average number of incorrect answers in thetest was 20%) and this is foundation for these courses. In the training centre we use Ambu® MegaCode Trainer System. Apart from physicians the CPRtraining centre has focused on amateurs, cardiacs and the members of alpine rescue service.

Key words:
cardiopulmonary resuscitation – training – postgraduate training centre – test
