Abstract: Objective To investigate the level of damage control resuscitation (DCR) related knowledge as well as the approach and attitude to learning such knowledge in emergency service nurses, and to provide reference for future training. Methods Totally 203 emergency service nurses who worked in 4 Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals in Nanjing from July 2017 to April 2018 were selected by convenient sampling and investigated with the DCR-related knowledge questionnaire designed for emergency service nurses. Results Emergency service nurses showed a poor mastery of DCR-related knowledge; 64.5% of the nurses acquired the knowledge via the training of their department; and 59.1% of the nurses never read relevant articles. Conclusions Emergency service has no complete and thorough knowledge related to DCR, and their passion for such knowledge should be enhanced. Therefore, hospitals and departments shall provide training in various forms.
