ABSTRACT:
A study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of video assisted teaching on knowledge regarding IV fluid therapy among registered nurses at selected private hospital. One group pre-test post-test research design has been adapted in this study. Convenient sampling technique was used to select 30 samples. The data were gathered and analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistical method. The findings revealed that during pre-test 28(93.33%) had inadequate knowledge and 2(6.67%) had moderately adequate knowledge on IV fluid therapy whereas in the post test, majority 26(96.67%) had adequate knowledge and 4(13.33%) had moderately adequate knowledge on IV fluid therapy. In pretest, the mean score of knowledge was 20.30 with S.D 6.59 and in the post test the mean score of knowledge was 61.13 with S.D 4.75. The mean improvement score was 40.83. The calculated paired ‘t’ value of t = 24.136 was found to be statistically significant at p<0.001 level. This clearly indicates that the video assisted teaching on IV fluid therapy among registered nurses had significant improvement in their level of knowledge on IV fluid therapy in the post test. It shows that video assisted programme was effective in improving the knowledge on IV fluid therapy among registered nurses. Hence Hypothesis H1 is accepted. The demographic variable “experience” had shown statistically significant association with post-test level of knowledge on IV fluid therapy among registered nurses at p<0.05 level. Hence the hypothesis H2 is accepted. So thereby video assisted teaching was effective in improving the knowledge of registered nurses regarding IV fluid therapy.
