Abstract

Introduction: Breast self-examination is a crucial screening method, especially for detecting cancer in women who test negative on mammograms or clinical breast exams. It also helps in identifying cancer in women who haven’t been screened. This self-examination involves checking for lumps in the breast at home. Results: The pre-test results showed that 46.67% (28) had an inadequate level of knowledge, 53.33% (32) had a moderate level of knowledge,   and none had an adequate level of knowledge about Breast Self- Examination. However, the post-test results revealed that 25% (15) had a moderate level of knowledge, 75% (45) had an adequate level of knowledge, and none had an inadequate level of knowledge regarding breast self-examination. Conclusion: The results demonstrated that the video-assisted teaching program was highly effective, as evidenced by the significant improvement in post-test knowledge scores among the study subjects.
