Effect of Self-instructional Module on Cardiac Drugs and Its Management among People with Cardiac Diseases at Palakkad District
Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in many countries worldwide. The world Health Organization estimated action is taken 20 million people would die from cardiovascular disease in every year. Drug that affects the function of heart and blood vessel are among the most widely used medicine. The patient who is taking cardiac medication has to understand the side effects. The research is based on the effect of self-instructional module on knowledge of side effects on cardiac drugs and its management among people with cardiac disease at Palakkad. Most of the people doesn’t know the side effects of these medication. The education about drugs and their side effects aim to improve patient’s long-term survival and recovery. Statement of the Study: The effect of self-instructional module on knowledge of side effects on cardiac drugs and its management among people with cardiac disease at Palakkad district. Aim: The study is to find out the knowledge on side effect of cardiac drugs on regular use and administering self-instructional module to the cardiac patients after that reassessing the knowledge on side effects of cardiac drugs Methodology: The quantitative research approach, pre-experimental one group pretest and posttest research design adopted to assess the knowledge of side effects of cardiac drugs and its management among people with cardiac diseases. The population of the study consists of people with cardiac diseases in community area of Palakkad district. Purposive sampling technique was used to select 30 people with cardiac diseases in the community area. The samples pre-test knowledge assessed by using structured knowledge questionnaire. Administered the self-instructional module on side effects of cardiac drugs. Reassessed the knowledge by using the same structured knowledge questionnaire The collected data was analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Result: According to the analysis the pre-test mean value is 9.76 and the post-test mean value is increased to 13.6 after the administration of self-instructional module on side effects of cardiac drugs and its management. It indicates the increased level of knowledge on side effects of cardiac drugs in the post-test. The obtained t’ value 9.12 (table value 2.045) was significant at 0.05 level at 29 (df). Conclusion: It is concluded that the self-instructional module on side effects of cardiac drugs improved the knowledge and helped to take precautions and manage the side effects as early.
