Background: Cardiovascular disease is the world’s leading reason for death. In 2019, 17.9 million individuals passed on from CVDs, containing 32% of worldwide mortality. (World health Association, 2021) An exhaustive, deliberate patient evaluation is vital in the administration and care of a patient with cardiovascular illness. Evaluation can be portrayed as ‘an organized assortment of data concerning the patient’s wellbeing status which plans to recognize the patient’s ongoing wellbeing status, genuine and potential medical conditions and regions for wellbeing improvement.
AIM: The current study is aimed to assess the effectiveness of educational package on knowledge and practice regarding cardiac assessment among selected BSc nursing students.
Objective:
1. To Assess the Pre-Post Test Level of Knowledge Regarding Cardiac Assessment among Selected BSc Nursing Students of Kheda and Anand District.
2. To Assess the Pre-Post Test Level Practice Regarding Cardiac Assessment among BSc Nursing Students of Kheda and Anand District
3. To Assess the Effectiveness of Educational Package Regarding Cardiac Assessment of Selected BSc Nursing Students of Kheda and Anand District.
4. To Find out Association of Demographical Variable Between Knowledge and Practice Regarding Cardiac Assessment among Selected BSc Nursing Students of Kheda and Anand District.
Methodology Design and Setting: A Quasi-Experimental research design were used and convenient sampling method was used to drawn samples. The tool validation from various subject experts, all questions were given to the students and inform consent form also has been conducted for data collection from the samples. Prior to data collection written setting permission obtain from Principals of various college, for the data collection researcher were selected colleges at Nadiad,
Anand district. The total sample size was 100 students. The tool consists of following
Section A: Sociodemographic variables.,
Section B: Knowledge questionnaire related to cardiac
assessment.
Section C: Practice checklist related to cardiac assessment.
Result: Information uncovers that the pre-test knowledge mean score of samples was 15.79 and SD was 3.790, posttest knowledge mean score was 22.06 and SD 2. 915.The pre-test Practice mean score of samples was 15.12 and SD was 3.406 and post-test practice mean score was 21.38 and SD was 2.915. The comparison between pre interventional knowledge and practice among BSc nursing students had significant difference with the ‘t’ value. The paired t test value knowledge (20.68) and practice (22.03). hence there
exits significance effectiveness on level of knowledge and practice before and after administration of education package among nursing students.
Conclusion: The study concluded that educational package was effective in increasing the knowledge and practice regarding cardiac health assessment among selected
nursing students. The choice of learning strategies in nursing education seems to have great impact on nursing students use of cardiac assessment skills while in clinical rotation. There is a need to explore nursing students learning processes related to the use of cardiac assessment.
