| Descripción: | Introduction: To evaluate knowledge about first aid (FA) in students of the Physical Education program at the University of Tarapacá, Chile, comparing the study center of origin and the gender of the students. Methodology: A mixed study was conducted, with qualitative and quantitative variables, inquiring about knowledge of first aid in students of the Physical Education Program at the University of Tarapacá. The study evaluated 169 students, 99 from the Tarapacá Technical Training Center and 70 who passed the entrance examination. First, an expert-validated survey was administered, inquiring about knowledge concerning first aid. Then, a pre-test was applied, and a theoretical-practical training course in first aid was given. At the end of the course, a post-test was conducted to verify the knowledge acquired on first aid. Results: It was observed that the men showed greater knowledge during the pre-test and the post-test, with 95.1% and 100%, respectively, while the women showed 75% in the pre-test and 90.1% in the post-test. On the other hand, students from the Technical Training Center maintained higher indicators in both analyses. Conclusions: The knowledge acquired in secondary school, as well as the completion of initial courses in first aid, favor the preparation of future Physical Education teachers; this leads to better actions in emergency situations, both in schools and in everyday life. |
