Objective:
to compare the knowledge of basic education students about first aid before and after an educational intervention on the subject. Method:
quasi-experimental study, conducted with 67 eighth-grade students of a public school, during 2015, in a city of Minas Gerais. Pre- and post-test instruments were applied for data collection, which were later compiled in Epi InfoTM software version 7 and analyzed by Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. Results:
there was a statistically significant improvement (P<0.05) in the participants’ knowledge after the educational intervention for most of the topics addressed. Conclusion:
the educational intervention in first aid for schoolchildren was effective and demonstrated the emerging need to implement subjects that address these contents in the basic education curriculum.
