The questionnaire consisted of 12 questions based on epidemiology data and cardiopulmonary resuscitation training and 26 multiple choice questions on cardiopulmonary resuscitation knowledge. Hospitals in Switzerland scored highest on basic life support ( P=0.005) while Belgium hospitals scored highest on advanced life support ( P&lt;0.001) and total score in cardiopulmonary resuscitation knowledge ( P=0.01). The Swiss hospitals scored highest in cardiopulmonary resuscitation training ( P&lt;0.001). Correlation between cardiopulmonary resuscitation knowledge and return of spontaneous circulation rates of patients with in-hospital cardiac arrest demonstrated that each additional correct answer on the advanced life support score results in a further increase in return of spontaneous circulation rates (odds ratio 3.94; 95% confidence interval 2.78 to 5.57; P&lt;0.001). <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p> Differences in knowledge about resuscitation and course attendance were found between university hospitals in 12 European countries.
