A Study to Assess the Effectiveness of Plan Teaching Programme on Level of Knowledge Regarding Advance Nursing Intervention of Myocardial Infarction Patient’s Care Among Staff Nurses at NH MMI Hospital, Lalpur, Raipur, Chhattisgarh

Abstract

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Incidence rates of myocardial infarction (MI) in rural West Texas signify a lack of effective, risk-specific prevention programs. Hospital patient data for those with and without a history of MI were obtained from the Project FRONTIER database for rural West Texas counties. Aim: the present study aims to Advance Nursing Intervention of Myocardial Infarction. Setting and Design: a quantitative approach with pre-experimental one group pretest post test design was used. The study was conducted at NH MMI Superspeciality Hospital, Lalpur, Raipur, Chhattisgarh. The sample selected by Non-Probability Purposive Sampling Technique. Method: consisted of 60 samples at NH MMI Super speciality Hospital, Lalpur, Raipur, Chhattisgarh. Formal permission for data collection was obtained. After obtaining a written consent from the samples for main study using a pre test data was collected through Self Structured Questionnaire level of knowledge was assessed. Results: The results of the study based on the pre test results indicated that a significant majority of staff nurses, 56(93.3%), had inadequate knowledge. The t-value of 54.346 indicated a highly significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores. With 59 degrees of freedom, the correlation between the pre-test and post-test scores is 0.818. The p-value of 0.001 (Significant at p < 0.05) indicated that the improvement in knowledge scores from the pre-test to the post-test was statistically significant. Hence the Research Hypothesis (H1) was Accepted. Association between pre test level of knowledge with socio demographic variables like qualification of staff nurse, the calculated value i.e., 16.896 was greater than the table value (12.592) at 0.05 level of significance and years of working experience the calculated value i.e., 24.563 was greater than the table value of chi square (12.592) at 0.05 level of significance. Hence, the proposed Research hypothesis (H2) was accepted.
