Abstract: Background of the study: Instruments designed to aid in the delivery of the foetus by applying traction to the foetal head. Many different types of forceps consist of two mirror image metal instruments that are measured cradle the foetal head and are articulate after which traction is applied to effect delivery. Objective: Objectives of the study to evaluate the effectiveness of Planned Teaching Programme on knowledge regarding complications of instrumental delivery and their management among staff nurses. Setting and Design: Quasi-experimental research design was adopted. The study was conducted among 50 staff nurses working in labour room of selected maternity hospital. lottery method of convenient sampling technique was adopted. Result: The chi-square values of selected demographic variables age, education status (, experience in hospital, experience in labour room and exposure to in-service education were significant at 0.05 level of significance. Hence, research hypothesis was accepted. The chi-square value of sex, religion, position were not significant at 0.05 level. Hence research hypothesis was rejected. These results are consistent with the study findings where there was no association found between the variable's sex, religion, and designation and pre-test knowledge scores among staff nurses working in labour room regarding complications of instrumental delivery and their management. Conclusion: The subjects showed inadequate knowledge in pre-test (mean percentage = 40.5) and maximum number of subjects has adequate knowledge in post-test as evidenced by the overall mean percentage of 71.4. There has been significant improvement in the level of knowledge of staff nurses.
