  • Purpose
    This study was done to identify the effectiveness of CPR training for nurses in the 6-sigma course.
  • Method
    The participants were nurses and doctors who worked in the medical center. For data analysis, the SPSS/PC14.0 program was used.
  • Result
    The total 11 categories of the primary problems were revealed on the recognition of carrying out CPR by nurses and doctors. After understanding the nurses' CPR knowledge and the practical ability, the survey showed 14.97 points and 67.12 points. After the education, the scores were increased from 14.87 to 23.25 in knowledge and from 67.12 to 93.43 in practical ability. The 6-sigma problem was ended as worked up the management plan and understood the changes over the management improving team.
  • Conclusion
    This study carries an emphasis on understanding of various CPR performance problems applied with 6-sigma in ward. In addition, improvement activities in relation to policy of hospitals suggest the high possibilities that the application of the improvement activities could be extended into the entire hospitals.
