	abstract = {The aim of this study is to assess the knowledge and attitude regarding basic life support among undergraduate dental students. A self-administered validated questionnaire of 24 questions, regarding the basic knowledge and attitude towards basic life support was distributed among 100 students randomly belonging to Final year, and internship (fifth year trainee) of undergraduate dental program in Saveetha Dental College and Hospital, Saveetha university, Chennai. The data extracted were tabulated, statistically analyzed and results obtained.60\% of them were aware that EMS should be activated during an emergency. 55\% of dental students knew about the depth of chest compressions to be given in adults. 50\% of students were aware of the rate of chest compressions in adults and children during CPR, but 60\% of students did not know about the compression ventilation ratio for CPR in adults and in infants. 50\% were aware of the correct sequence of BLS and only 33\% knew how to recognize and help a patient with acute coronary syndrome. It is concluded that the overall Knowledge about basic life support among the dental students is inadequate and there is need for improving the technical skills in performing Cardiopulmonary resuscitation. However they have positive attitude towards it. In order to improve quality of patient care, annual Basic life support courses should be made mandatory in dental teaching curriculum. Repeated training, hands-on practice and practical demonstrations are equally necessary for acquiring practical knowledge. Copyright © 2017, Global Research Online. All rights reserved.},
