Assess the effectiveness of video-assisted teaching programs on knowledge of neonatal resuscitation among B.Sc. Nursing 3rd-year students of selected nursing colleges of Rewa

Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of video-assisted teaching on neonatal resuscitation of knowledge among B.Sc. Nursing 3rd-year students of the Government Nursing College of Rewa. Materials and Methods: A quasi-experimental research design, which consists of one group pre-test and post-test, was used for the study. This consists of 60 samples that were selected based on the sampling criteria set for the study. Purposive sample techniques are used in the study. Results: The majority of B.Sc. Nursing 3rd-year students (41.66%) were in the age group of 21 years; 85% were female, and 28.34% of them had previous experience related to neonatal resuscitation. Most students, having experience, were exposed to seminars, and the rest of them were exposed to literature. In the pre-test, 46.34% of students had average knowledge, 43.66% had poor knowledge, and 10% had good knowledge. In the post-test, 71.66% had good knowledge, and 28.34% had average knowledge. The pre-test score mean was 12±3.91, while the post-test mean was 22.04±4 showing a significant difference in knowledge level before and after the video-assisted teaching program (t-test=7.032, p≤0.05%). Conclusion: This study indicates that video-assisted teaching is effective in increasing the knowledge of the samples regarding neonatal care.
