ABSTRACT
Background: It is very crucial for Nurse working in Hospital environment to acquire the knowledge
of Electrocardiogram for the prompt action during the changes of rhythm or heart arrest and save
more lives and reduce the global burden of cardiovascular disease.
Objectives:- The study was Aimed to find knowledge regarding Electrocardiogram among internship
students. Find out effectiveness of structured teaching program on level of knowledge regarding
Electrocardiogram among internship students. To determine association between pre-test knowledge
score regarding Electrocardiogram with demographic variables.
Material and Method: The selection of design depends upon the purpose of the study, research
approach and variable to be studied. One group pre-test, post-test research design, which belongs to
pre-experimental design, was selected to assess effectiveness of structured teaching program
regarding ECG among internship nursing students. The evaluation of structured teaching program was
done through post-test on the 8th day of implementation of structured teaching program.
Results: The results shows that obtained chi square value in the variables such as, year of study
(X2=6.8182), age (X2=11.0155) The obtained value is greater than the table value at 0.05 level of
significance thus it is considered as significant. Education of parents (X2=1.7), occupation of
parents(X2=0.399) and gender(X2=1.7816). The obtained value is lesser than the table value at 0.05
level of significance thus it is considered as non- significant. Publication date: 15/12/2023 https://ijbpas.com/pdf/2023/December/MS_IJBPAS_2023_DECEMBER_SPCL_1042.pdfDownload PDFhttps://doi.org/10.31032/IJBPAS/2023/12.12.1042
