Subject: all nurses available in trauma intensive care unit and general intensive care unit (85nurses) at Assiut University. Tools: One tool was utilized to collect the relevant data, A self-administered questionnaire that examined nurses’ perception and divided into four parts, Personal characteristics, nurses’ perception toward importance of CPR, nurses’ roles and team performance regarding CPR. Results: More than two third (75.41%) of nurses had a great perception about CPR With (58.8%) Satisfactory level of nursing CPR Perception. Nurses agreed that Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is important in clinical practice, identified perception of roles and perceptions towards team performance during CPR. Conclusion: The nurses had a great perception regarding CPR but they feel that CPR is complex, time consuming, energy consuming and a stressful situation and nurses in CPR team have limited knowledge about DNR (Don’t resuscitate). Recommendations: Adequately planned in-service training programs related to CPR should be established for improving nurses’ knowledge, practice and nurses’ ability to think critically during the performance of CPR.
