Background: The study’s objectives were to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and relationship between rural and urban school-aged children’s knowledge and attitudes about personal hygiene. Methods: The study used a comparative research design. A stratified random sample selection procedure was utilized. One hundred samples (50 from rural areas and 50 from cities) were selected. The population of the study was rural and urban school going children 9–11 years. To examine the data, descriptive and inferential statistics were employed. Results: The survey concluded that 40% (20) of rural schoolchildren and 44% (22) of urban schoolchildren had strong knowledge. About 96% (48) urban and 88% (44) rural schoolchildren valued personal cleanliness. The mean knowledge score of urban schoolchildren was 19.48, higher than rural children 16.52, and their mean attitude score was 74.18, much higher than rural children 68.10. The mean knowledge score of rural and urban children was statistically significant for age, mother’s education, and source of information, but not for household type or monthly income. In rural children, class was significant while gender was non-significant. The mean attitude score of rural and urban school children was statistically significant for age, gender, class, but not for mother education, type of family, family monthly income, or source of information. Based on the study, rural and urban school children received personal hygiene advice. When feasible, guidelines should be flexible. Conclusion: Children attending schools in urban areas had better knowledge than those attending schools in rural areas, but both groups of students shared a favorable outlook on the value of good personal hygiene.

Background: Due to their rapid, children’s growth and development more exposed to the acute and long-term health consequences of pollutants in their surroundings, which can result in illnesses including diarrhea and respiratory tract infections. Objectives: The study’s objectives were to determine if balloon-blowing exercise has an impact on the lower respiratory tract characteristics in children aged 6–12 infections. Need: This study was to determine if balloon-blowing exercise has an impact on the lower respiratory tract characteristics in children aged 6–12. Nearly 1.0% of children had respiratory illness in 2019–2020 in Gujarat. Methods: The study used a quasi-experimental research design. Sample size: The sample comprises 60 kids who were hospitalized in a pediatric unit. They were diagnosed between the ages of 6 and 12 with lower respiratory tract infections. The research group received 30 of them, while the control group received 30. Sampling technique: For individuals who met the inclusion requirements for the study, the researcher chose a purposeful non-randomized sampling approach. Results: Pre-test and post-test mean values for the study group were 20.63 and 34.43, respectively. At P = 0.05, the paired t value of 15.76 is significant. It demonstrates that balloon-blowing activity was successful in easing respiratory discomfort. Hence, H1 was approved. While in the control group, children’s pre-test and post-test mean values for respiratory distress were 21 and 32.13, respectively. At the significance level of 0.05, the paired t value was 12.77 and was significant. Conclusion : According to the findings of the study, it was concluded that engaging in balloon blowing activities could have a positive impact on the respiratory parameters of children with lower respiratory tract infections.

Aims: The aim of the study was to access the knowledge and practice of student nurses toward nebulization therapy. Introduction: Nebulization is an important tool in the treatment of respiratory conditions. Nurses are primary health-care providers for using the nebulizers in a hospital setting. The examination of nurse’s knowledge and performance regarding the nebulizer therapy is of almost importance for proper nebulization. Methodology: The pre-experimental research design was conducted in this study. The total sample was 60 in this study. Purposive sample technique was used. The target population is student nurses. The area of setting is Government Medical College Hospital of Ambikapur (c.g.). Result: The data show that analysis of the knowledge score pre-test mean score was 9.75, mean percentage score was 1.66% and SD was 2.71, analysis of post-test knowledge mean score was 14.51, mean percentage 2% and SD was 1.76, and standard error was 0.412, paired “t” value was 6.85 that was found to significant at 0.05 level. Practice score and pre-test mean score was 13.08, mean percentage score was 54.5%, and SD was 2.37, analysis of post-test knowledge mean score was 17.08, mean percentage 71.16 and SD was1.42, and standard error was 0.35, paired “t” value was 11.42 that was found to significant at 0.05 level. Conclusion: After the detailed analysis, this study leads to following conclusion that is more effective in improving knowledge and practice on regarding nebulization therapy

Aim: The aim of this study was to reduce the unpleasant and uncomfortable sensations experienced by patients and to monitor the pain management satisfaction level of the patient. This study aims to have a dedicated pain nurse to provide continuous training to the staffs and recognize all patients suffering due to the unsatisfactory pain management and need to use more evidence-based approaches in post-operative pain assessment supported by validated pain assessment tools. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental, one-group post-intervention-only design. The total study was done in three phases with phase 1 for assessing pain management satisfaction score, phase 2 for early identification and training, and last phase 3 for daily corrective action on pain management with enhancing the use of pain pamphlet in educating patient and family. Discharge patient, post OP patients, and patient admitted with pain their data were gathered using the checklist and through the Bitly link for the satisfaction score. Results: It was found that the patient satisfaction score had increased beyond the benchmark. The percentage of pain management satisfaction score improved from 77.5% to 90% and above. From the data collected in post-intervention phase majority of the samples, 96.6% stated that the pain management done by the nurses was excellent. About 95.5% of compliance was found toward pain management in each shift by nurses and doctors. Conclusion: The patients’ rating of their satisfaction and the compliance toward pain assessment has increased significantly following the nurse-led pain management program as compared to the levels before the intervention. Furthermore, the program will improve nurses’ knowledge and attitude toward the pain perception and the delivery of the pain management through meaningful patient-nurse interactions.
