Abstract


The present study was conducted with the purpose to assess effectiveness of computer assisted teaching programmne on knowledge regarding care of patient on mechanical ventilator among staff nurses. The conceptual framework of the study is based on Modified Imogene M. King Goal Attainment Theory (1981). Pilot study was conducted in the month of March 2016, on 10 subjects (5 in experimental group and 5 in control group). This procedure was done to ensure the reliability of tool and feasibility of the study. The actual data collection was carried out in the month of March 2016. Sixty subjects (30 in experimental group and 30 in control group) were selected by convenience sampling technique. The samples were taken from two different hospitals of District Mohali, Punjab. The tool comprised of demographic profile and computer assisted teaching programme to assess the knowledge of staff nurses regarding care of patient on Mechanical ventilator. After obtaining formal permission from higher authorities and written informed consent from subjects, pretest was conducted from both groups and computer teaching programme regarding care of patient on mechanical ventilator was administered to each subject in experimental group only. After 7 days, posttest was conducted from both groups to assess the posttest knowledge to evaluate the effectiveness of computer assisted teaching programme regarding care of patient on mechanical ventilator among staff nurses. After posttest CAT programmer was administered to control group also. The gathered data were analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics in term of calculating mean, standard deviation, frequency and percentage, Chi square, t-test, and ANOVA. Study findings depicted that in control group, majority of subjects in pretest (57%) had average knowledge and in posttest (63%) had average knowledge, whereas in experimental group, majority of subjects (63%) had average knowledge in pre- but in posttest mostly had good (83%) knowledge regarding care of patient on mechanical ventilator. The significant level was checked on p-value 0.001,0.01 and <0.05. Hence, it can be concluded that the computer assisted teaching programme Regarding care of patient on mechanical ventilator was effective in enhancing the knowledge in experimental group. The study findings concluded that the computer assisted teaching programme regarding care of patient on mechanical ventilator was effective in increasing the knowledge level in experimental group.al group.
