Notes: The correlation analysis in Table 6 reveals significant positive relationships between knowledge, attitudes, and practices among anesthesia providers regarding CPR. Higher levels of knowledge are strongly correlated with better CPR practices (r = 0.365, p < 0.01) and moderately correlated with a positive attitude (r = 0.312, p < 0.01). Additionally, a positive attitude moderately correlates with better CPR practices (r = 0.289, p < 0.01). These findings emphasize the critical role of continuous education and hands-on training in improving both the attitudes and practices of anesthesia providers. Well-designed training programs that blend theoretical knowledge with practical simulations are crucial in fostering positive attitudes and enhancing CPR practices, leading to improved patient outcomes during cardiac emergencies. *Statistically significant at p ≤ 0.05.
