摘要：

Objectives The aim of this study was to determine the first aid knowledge levels of prisoners. Methods The study group consisted of 482 prisoners incarcerated in the Mersin E Type Prison. The first aid knowledge levels of prisoners were evaluated using a questionnaire. Results A total of 482 prisoners were surveyed (age range: 18-67 years, median age: 31.4 years). Presentations were secondary to syncope (17.9%), fractures/dislocation/sprains (13.4%) and lacerations (12.5%). The average number of correct answers on the questionnaire was 42.42 +/- 16.44. Of the prisoners, approximately 50% failed the test. Conclusions The level of first aid knowledge among the prisoners was low. First aid knowledge can be improved by providing first aid training to prison inmates.
