Efficacy of Community-Based Intervention on Cognizance and Perception among Nursing Students Regarding Organ Donation in Selected Nursing Colleges of Madhya Pradesh with a View to Develop Video Assisted Teaching

Sushma Yohan ^[2]

Abstract: Organ transplantation is the moving of an organ from one body to another, or from a donor site on the patient's own body, for the purpose of replacing the recipient's damaged or absent organ. The emerging field of Regenerative medicine is allowing scientists and engineers to create organs to be re-grown from the patient's own cells (stem cells, or cells extracted from the failing organs). Organs and/or tissues that are transplanted within the same person's body are called auto grafts. Transplants that are performed between two subjects of the same species are called allograft. Allograft can either be from a living or cadaveric source. Mean total score rated on cognizance scale studied nursing students found to be 10.95?4.77 points and perception scale 32.88?8.28 points prior (pre-test). But, the mean score 22.67?5.51 points of cognizance & 51.68?10.29 points of perception at post-test stage found to be significantly higher after administration of video assisted teaching.
