Effectiveness of Planned Teaching Programme on Knowledge Regarding Safe Handling of Chemotherapeutic Drugs among Intern Nursing Students of Selected Nursing Colleges: A Quasi Experimental Study
Abstract: Aim of the study: The study aims to find the Effectiveness of planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding safe handling of chemotherapeutic drugs among intern nursing students of selected nursing colleges. Objectives of study: Primary objectives 1) To assess the knowledge regarding safe handling of chemotherapeutic drugs among intern nursing students of selected nursing colleges.2) To evaluate the effectiveness of planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding safe handling of chemotherapeutic drugs among Intern nursing students of selected nursing colleges. Secondary objectives 1) To associate the post-test knowledge score with selected demographic variables. Method: One group pre-test post-test research design and based on quantitative approach carried out on 100 intern nursing students selected by simple random sampling technique. Results: The presents study evaluates and found that demographic variables, The study reveals that pre-test 20 (20%) were poor level of knowledge, 60 (60%) were fair level of knowledge, 18 (18%) had good level of knowledge and 2(2%) had very good knowledge. Minimum score was 6 and maximum score 20. Mean knowledge score 12.02±1.45 and mean percentage score was 32.12±12.51 and post-test 07 (07%) had good level of knowledge, and 24(24%) had very good level of knowledge and 69(69%) had excellent knowledge. Minimum score was 15 and maximum score 28. Mean knowledge score 25.68±1.75 and mean percentage score was 69.15±5.585. Interpretation and conclusion: Mean, standard deviation and mean difference values are compared and student's paired 't' test is applied at 5% level of significance. The tabulated value for n = 100 i.e., 99 degrees of freedom. The calculated 't' value i.e., 36.22 are much higher than the tabulated value at 5% level of significance for overall knowledge score of population which is statistically acceptable level of significance. Hence it is statistically interpreted that the knowledge score in pre and post-test of regarding safe handling of chemotherapeutic drugs among intern nursing students of selected nursing colleges.
