A pre-experimental study was carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of planned teaching programme on knowledge and attitude regarding safety measures against sexual harassment among adolescent girls. A pre- experimental one group per test post-test design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of planned teaching programme. The sample consists of 80 adolescent girls of Government girls inter college Dehradun, Uttarakhand. Consecutive sampling technique was used for the selection of samples. The data was collected through self-structured questionnaire. Result shows the major findings indicated that 90% were having average knowledge while only 3.75% were having adequate knowledge regarding safety measures against sexual harassment. The data also suggested that 17.5% girls were having negative attitude, while merely 21.25% girls were holding positive attitude towards safety measure against sexual harassment. Structured teaching programme is found to be very effective method to improve knowledge regarding safety measures against sexual harassment but there is little difference in change in attitude towards the safety measure against sexual harassment. The mean post-test level of knowledge was significantly higher than the mean pre-test knowledge score that is 12.11 in pre-test and 17.42 in post- test with paired “t” =14.85, which was significant at p<0.05 level. The mean pre-test attitude score was 28.86 and post test score is 30.15 with paired “t” = 2.19 at P= 0.05 significance. On finding the association of knowledge and attitude with their demographic variable, there was no association estimated by yates corelation and chi square test. On the basis of findings, it is recommended that a similar study may be replicated using a large number of participants. More intervention studies should be carried out for improving the knowledge and attitude regarding safety measures against sexual harassment.

Spirometry is the most common type of pulmonary function or breathing test. It is one of the most readily available and useful tests for pulmonary function. It measures the volume of air exhaled at specific time points during complete exhalation by force, which is preceded by a maximal inhalation. The most important variables reported include total exhaled volume, known as the forced vital capacity (FVC), the volume exhaled in the first second, known as the forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), and their ratio (FEV1/FVC).The test can play an important role in diagnosing and managing many lung problems. It can help distinguish between diseases with similar symptoms and determine whether the condition is obstructive and/or restrictive.

Back ground: A good resuscitation after cardiac arrest require an integrated coordinated actions. CPR traditionally has an integrated chest compressions and rescue breathing with the goal of optimizing circulation and oxygenation. Every human being can be a life-saving rescuer for a cardiac arrest victim. CPR skills and their application depends on the rescuer’s training, experience and confidence. Chest compression are the foundation of the CPR. So, training knowledge regarding CPR among community people is to be provided as a basic life support measures. Because of the importance of CPR, chest compression should be the initial CPR actions for all victim regardless of age. Objectives: The objectives of the study were to assess the pre-test knowledge regarding child CPR among selected people, assess the effectiveness of video assisted teaching programme on child CPR among selected people, assess the post-test knowledge regarding child CPR among selected people, and find out the association between knowledge on child CPR among selected people with selected demographic variables. Methods: An experimental study was aimed to assess the effectiveness of video assisted teaching programme on knowledge regarding child CPR among selected people. One group pre-test post-test design was used for the study. The sample consisted of 50parents of under-five children from Olavanna Panchayath, Kozhikkode who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The tool used were structured questionnaire to assess sociodemographic data, structured questionnaire on cardiopulmonary resuscitation and on cardiopulmonary resuscitation in children. Descriptive and inferential statistics was used for analysis. Result: The obtained “t” value is 5.06, which is greater than the table value 2.043. Hence the null hypothesis was rejected. There was significant association found between level of knowledge of selected people regarding child CPR with their demographic variables such as education and type of profession. No significant association was found between level of knowledge of selected peoples regarding CPR with their demographic variables such as age, gender, participation in NCC, Scout and Guide (previous knowledge regarding CPR).

CPR traditionally has an integrated chest compressions and rescue breathing with the goal of optimizing circulation and oxygenation. Every human being can be a life-saving rescuer for a cardiac arrest victim. CPR skills and their application depends on the rescuer’s training, experience and confidence. Chest compression are the foundation of the CPR. So, training knowledge regarding CPR among community people is to be provided as a basic life support measures. Because of the importance of CPR, chest compression should be the initial CPR actions for all victim regardless of age. Objectives: The objectives of the study were to assess the pre-test knowledge regarding child CPR among selected people, assess the effectiveness of video assisted teaching programme on child CPR among selected people, assess the post-test knowledge regarding child CPR among selected people, and find out the association between knowledge on child CPR among selected people with selected demographic variables. Methods: An experimental study was aimed to assess the effectiveness of video assisted teaching programme on knowledge regarding child CPR among selected people. One group pre-test post-test design was used for the study. The sample consisted of 50parents of under-five children from Olavanna Panchayath, Kozhikkode who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The tool used were structured questionnaire to assess sociodemographic data, structured questionnaire on cardiopulmonary resuscitation and on cardiopulmonary resuscitation in children. Descriptive and inferential statistics was used for analysis. Result: The obtained “t” value is 5.06, which is greater than the table value 2.043. Hence the null hypothesis was rejected. There was significant association found between level of knowledge of selected people regarding child CPR with their demographic variables such as education and type of profession. No significant association was found between level of knowledge of selected peoples regarding CPR with their demographic variables such as age, gender, participation in NCC, Scout and Guide (previous knowledge regarding CPR).

Background: The stroke burden in India is very high, and its incidence has been rising over the past few decades. Acute stroke is a time-sensitive emergency and requires identifying warning signs and seeking medical attention to prevent mortality and morbidity. Knowing its risk factors, accurately identifying warning signs, and seeking medical attention within a timeline is challenging to avoid secondary complications. Objective: To assess the knowledge of risk factors, warning signs, and immediate response to stroke among patients attending the general outpatient department (OPD) and find out the relationship of knowledge with selected socio-demographic and clinical variables of the patients. Material and Methods: A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted on 200 patients attending the general outpatient department (OPD) recruited consecutively after meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Demographic profile, clinical profile, and knowledge questionnaire on risk factors, warning signs, and response to stroke were used to gather the data. Consent was taken from the patient after obtaining the ethical clearance. Results: Nearly half of the patients (43.5%) had very good knowledge, and almost the same number (43%) had good knowledge about stroke risk factors. The participants identified the most common risk factors for stroke: hypertension (77%) and excessive alcohol consumption (73%). Most patients (92.5%) have poor knowledge about warning signs, and only 7% had adequate knowledge. The most common stroke warning sign described by participants was 'confusion and slurred speech' identified by 17%. All patients were aware of seeking medical attention within 72 hours. Still, none of them knew about the golden timeline (3 hours), its importance, and thrombolytic therapy as a selective stroke treatment during the golden timeline. There is no association between participants' knowledge of stroke risk factors and warning signs and socioeconomic, clinical, and source of information variables (p<.05). Conclusion: Most patients have better knowledge about risk factors but lack warning signs and immediate response to stroke irrespective of their socioeconomic, clinical, and source of receiving stroke-related information. Hospitals must galvanize the efforts to disseminate stroke-related information involving nursing staff to organize different educational strategies in OPDs.
