Introduction: Mortality from cardiopulmonar arrest depends on the effectiveness of care. The success of resuscitation increases if initiated early in the site. Uninformed and untrained individuals can provide inadequate care increasing damage. Objective: Register if sex, age, graduation and profession influence the knowledge and the attitudes of the rescuer. Method: Applied research, with open and closed questionnaire, qualitative and quantitative. Cross-sectional study by convenience sample, used as a reflection of a population, not probabilistic. Result: There were 319 questionnaires applied in August 2015. Men 36%. Mean age 34.3 + 14.7 years. University level 55% and middle school 40%. Men and Women say they know how to recognize an event, but men feel more fit (36% x 21.6% p = 0.01), know what to do (51.2% x 38.2% p = 0, 02), ask for less help (27.9% x 40.4%) and check more vital signs (27.9% x 12.5%). Regarding the age group, there was no difference in knowing what to do, but those between 20 and 60 years recognized fewer events (40% x 24% p = 0.02) and few knew how to ask for help correctly. People with higher graduation time had a greater capacity to recognize a situation (45%), but this did not differentiate them in other steps. Health professionals call less for help, but half of them do not know the number to call. Conclusion: Men, older people and younger people are better prepared to attend a arrest, regardless of graduation. And health professionals have a better knowledge than the lay person.
