Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Percutaneous Transluminal coronary Angioplasty (PTCA) is an increasingly important revascularization strategy in coronary artery disease management and can be an emergent planned or rescue procedure. Nurses play a critical role in delivering care both in the independent and collaborative contexts of PTCA management. To improve the care given to patients, it is important to base practice on high level evidence. The study was carried out to assess the knowledge regarding percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty among nursing staffs and to evaluate the effectiveness of video assisted teaching programme.

MATERIAL AND METHODS:  Quasi experimental one group pre-test post-test research was done. The target population for the study were nursing staffs working in Universal College of Medical Sciences (UCMS), Bhairahawa and those who were willing to participate were included in the study and non-willing staffs were excluded. The total duration of study was three months from 25/07/2018 to 22/10/2018.Convenient sampling technique was used for the study. Among 102 nursing staffs, 62 nursing staffs were participated in the study. The time taken to complete the demographic data and questionnaire was 20-30 minutes. On the same day after the pre-test video assisted teaching programme was administered to the subject to assess the knowledge regarding Percutaneous Transluminal coronary angioplasty. Post-test was conducted with the same questionnaire on the seventh day of pre-test.  Data was collected using structured questionnaire. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 20.0.

RESULTS: The findings of the study revealed that only 1.6% of the nurses had adequate level of knowledge before video assisted teaching programme which increased to 64.5% in post-test.

CONCLUSION: The knowledge score of most of the nurses on PTCA was moderate before the administration of video assisted teaching programme whereas as most of the nurses had adequate knowledge score after the teaching. There was overall gain in knowledge score following the video assisted teaching programme
