Abstract

abstractHypertensive conditions during pregnancy contribute greatly to maternal morbidity and mortality around the world. Hypertension complicates approximately one out of every ten pregnancies. Ten million women develop pre-eclampsia each year around the world. Worldwide about 76,000 pregnant women die each year from pre-eclampsia and related hypertensive disorders. In developing countries, a woman is seven times as likely to develop preeclampsia as a woman in a developed country. The increasing prevalence of the disease and hereby also increasing social costs combined with the fact that the disease is associated with increased morbidity and mortality of antenatal mothers emphasizes the importance of effective care. This study is aimed at assessing the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on self-care management of antenatal mothers with mild pregnancy induced hypertension.Title of the study:“A Study To Assess The Effectiveness Of Structured Teaching Programme on Knowledge Regarding Self-Care Management Of Pregnancy Induced Hypertension Among Antenatal Mothers Attending The Antenatal Clinic In Selected Hospital Of Srinagar Kashmir. Objectives: 1) To assess the existing knowledge of antenatal mothers regarding self-care management of pregnancy induced hypertension.2) To assess the knowledge regarding self-care management of pregnancy induced hypertension among antenatal mothers after the implementation of structured teaching programme.3) To compare the pre-test and post-test knowledge scores regarding self-care management of pregnancy induced hypertension among antenatal mothers. 4) To determine the association of pre-test knowledge score regarding self-care management of pregnancy induced hypertension among antenatal mothers with their selected demographic variables i.e., age, education, occupation, type of family, residence, Family Income per month, gravidity. Hypothesis:The Hypotheses are tested at a 0.05 level of significance: 1) Research hypothesis (H1): There is significant difference between the mean pre-test and post- test knowledge scores of antenatal mothers regarding self-care management of pregnancy induced hypertension at p≤0.05% level of significance. 2) Research hypothesis (H2): There is significant association of pre-test knowledge scores of antenatal mothers with their selected demographic variables i.e. age, education, occupation, type of family, residence, gravidity, at p≤0.05% level of significance.Methods: A quantitative approach with pre-experimental one group pretest post-test design was used for the study. Sample size was 60 subjects with pregnancy induced hypertension, who attended the Antenatal clinic of Obstetric and Gynaecological of Sheri-I-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences Srinagar, were selected by using Purposive Sampling technique. Pre-test was conducted to assess the existing knowledge of the subjects by structured interview schedule, followed by structured teaching programme. Post test was conducted on 7th day by using same structured interview schedule. The data collected were analysed by descriptive ORIGINAL ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS Tabasum, A. R.
