The purpose of this study was to study the emergency department (ED) nurse's opinion about family presence during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). One- hundred and seventy-nine nurse were selected from those who worked or had previously worked in ED of 17 governmental general hospital in Thailand. The study showed that 81% of this sample perceived that family members had a right to remain with the patient during CPR. 95% suggested that the family members should be first-degree relatives (parents, spouse and/or children) with good mental health. 65.4% would allow only 2 family members at a time. 65.9% would loke family members' signed informed consent, 58.6% suggested nurse as the family facilitator, and 46.4% felt that family members would be in a location outside the CPR area a but to see the patient. Ninety-six percent thought that family presence would interfere the CPR, but 82.1% thought witnessing the efforts of the CPR team would benefit the team, and 71.5% would satisfy the emotional and spiritual needs of the family. This study showed that ED nurse supported the rights of patient's familu members to ramain with the patient during CPR. Therefore, health care providers in ED should develop work instruction for family presence during CPR by consulting various parties concerned, to satisfy the biopsychosocial and spiritual needs of the patients, their families and the community.
