The study aimed at assessing the knowledge and skill of 4 medial related majors regard to CPR. Using a the descriptive - analytical design, the knowledge and skill of 320 senior students in medicine and nursing (clinical) disciplines with special education about CPR and health management & public health students (non-clinical) with potential related education about CPR during educational course, were assessed by a self-report questionnaire. Collected data were analyzed by Chi 2 orFisher, Student t and ANOVA tests in SPSS software. Most of participants were female. The mean age of sample was 22.5±2.92. Students which receive special education about CPR, compared to other disciplines that receive only related education about CPR, have more knowledge about it (p< 0.001) but their knowledge has a considerable gap to ideal situation. The score related to reported skills by most of student was higher than their knowledge score. The findings of this study indicate although the most of clinical participants versus non clinicians have relatively good knowledge about CPR but there is an over estimation between knowledge and skills related to CPR among them. This needs to more assess as well as the need to revision in special related education.

Review articles are divided by two categories including narrative and systematic reviews. Systematic review assesses related studies using a scientific planned method to answer a relevant research question. The overall structure of a systematic review is comprised of seeking and finding related studies, apprising them according to clear criteria, combining the results and presenting them Obviously and succinctly. This type of review helps decision makers to decide correctly regard to a topic which has been examined in various studies. Systematic review needs achieving experience and having enough time and the authors should have sufficient authority on the topic. Relatively identical processes have been suggested by different authors that usually include formulating the research question, setting the research protocol, literature search, extracting data, quality assessment, data analysis and presenting the data, and results interpretation. Performing these stages needs to consider the protocol or plan that usually has developed by the authors before beginning the study and following it may avoid any bios and deviation from the research line. The sections that are in a research article such as abstract, introduction, methods, results and discussion should also be considered in a systematic review article.
