ABSTRACT:
Basic Cardiac life support refers to set of medical procedures used to assist individuals who are experiencing a life-threatening cardiac emergency, such as cardiac arrest. Nurses are playing one of the major roles in health care settings. Hence the study was conducted entitled “A study to evaluate the Effectiveness of Video Assisted teaching programme on Knowledge regarding Basic Cardiac Life Support among nursing students from selected colleges, Madurai.” The objectives of the study are to assess the knowledge of nursing students regarding Basic Cardiac Life Support, evaluate the effectiveness of VAT, and to find the association between pre-test knowledge score of nursing students with the selected demographic variables. Methods: An evaluative approach with quasi experimental- one group pre-test and post-test design and convenient sampling technique was used to select 59 first year nursing students. Results: The overall improvement mean score of knowledge is 3.4 and SD is 0.2. The statistical paired ‘t’ test value 4.786 indicates there is a statistical significance in terms of knowledge between pre and post-test.
