The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge regarding cardiopulmonary resuscitation technique, to evaluate the effectiveness of demonstration and to find out the association between pre-test knowledge score on cardio pulmonary Resuscitation techniques among GNM 2nd year students with their selected demographic Variables. An Evaluator approach with Quasi Experimental Non- Randomized control group design was used. 60 students from GNM 2nd year was selected by Purposive Sampling technique 30 in control group and 30 in experimental group. The result of the study shows In pre test in Experimental group highest (60%) were Inadequate followed by (33.33%) Moderate adequate, (6.67%) adequate. It can be interrelated that a majority GNM 2nd year student belongs to inadequate knowledge. In Control group highest (70%) were Inadequate followed by (20%) Moderate adequate, (10%) adequate. It can be interoperated that majority GNM 2nd year students belong to Inadequate Knowledge. In Post Test, Experimental group highest (73.34%) were adequate followed by (26.66%) Moderate adequate, (00%) inadequate. It can be interrelated that majority GNM 2nd year students belong to adequate knowledge. Control group highest (63.33%) were Inadequate followed by (26.67%) Moderate adequate, (10%) adequate. It can be interrelated that majority GNM 2nd year students belong to Inadequate Knowledge. Effectiveness of demonstration score of GNM 2nd year students on CPR of Calculative value is (8.24) , D.F. is (29), Table value is (1.699) and inference is (significant).
