Abstract

Accidental injuries are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality
worldwide. Approximately 1.25 million lives are cut short because of road traffic
accident every year. As the incidences of emergencies is steadily increasing in recent
years, it is important to ensure that individuals are adequately trained to deal with such
events including university students. First aid is given to preserve life and minimize the
consequences of injury and illness until help is obtained from health care practitioners.
This study aimed to assess the level of knowledge, awareness and attitude related to
first aid among IIUM Kuantan campus students. (Copied from article).
