The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of “mosque lifesaver training” for the laypersons’ knowledge and willingness to perform basic life support.Methods: There are 247 people from twelve mosques that participated in this research. The participants were given fifteen multiple-choice preposttest questioners in basic life support knowledge, one full day two-direction training, one-by-one practicing in small group for adult and pediatric CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation), and CPR skill test. Data was collected and statistically analyzed with SPSS 24 Software by IBM.Results and discussion: From 247 participants, 32 were excluded due to lack of data. For rest of 215 participants, 32.1% was housewife, mean value of age was 39.1 ± 0.9 SD years, educational background was bachelor in 44.7% participants. Mean value of pre-test and post-test were 28.70 ± 16.8 SD and 55.73 ± 19.30 SD, respectively. The post-test result has significant correlation of profession (p=0.003), but no significant correlation of age (p=0.08) and educational background (0.51). Marginal homogeneity test for pre and post test data brought p<0.001 significance. Before the training, only 57.2% participants had willingness to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation. After the training, 91.2% participants have willingness to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation if witness sudden cardiac arrest of unknown people.Conclusion: Participants who enrolled the training were predominantly by housewife, productive age with bachelor educational background.
