Mechanical ventilation refers to the use of life-support technology to perform the work of breathing for patients who are unable to do so with their own. The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge regarding Mechanical Ventilator among B.SC.(N) 3rd year students studying in SGRR College of Nursing , Patel Nagar, Dehradun Methods: The research design selected for this study was pre- experimental one group pre-test post- test design; 50 students of B.SC. (N) 3rd year of SGRR College of Nursing at Patel Nagar, Dehradun, were enrolled in the study by using a Non- probability convenient sampling technique .The data were analyzed and interpreted by using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The study depicts that the findings related to pre-test level of knowledge of 84% of students have inadequate knowledge, after structured teaching programme , 70% students have moderate knowledge in their posttest about Mechanical ventilator. The mean pre – test knowledge score was 11.48 with standard deviation 4.001, after structured teaching mean post –test knowledge score increased to 21.16 and with standard deviation 2.713, It was significantly higher than mean pre – test level of knowledge score at 0.05 level of significantly. Conclusion: Finding of the study shows that the difference between pre- test and post – test score was statistically significant. Hence it can be concluded that there was an increase in the level of knowledge after structured teaching programme regarding Mechanical ventilator.

Background and objective: Factors significantly associated with the occurrence of phlebitis are underlying risk for any nosocomial infection. A study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme regarding phlebitis associated with peripheral intra venous cannulation among nurses working in Selected Wards of BPKIHS,“a tertiary level medical university in Nepal” Methods: The research design used for this study was one group pre-test and one post-test design. Fifty nurses were selected by non-probability convenient sampling technique. The data were collected in before and after educational intervention to assess the pretest and posttest knowledge about the phlebitis associated with peripheral intravenous cannulation. The data were analyzed and interpreted by descriptive and inferential statistics. Results and Conclusion: Findings of the study shows that the highest percentage of respondents was in age group < 35 (70%). The mean score of pretest knowledge was found to be 19.80 with Standard Deviation is 3.24 and mean score of posttest knowledge was found to 24.12 with SD 2.63. The difference on knowledge of pretest and posttest was found to be significant (p= 0.001).Pretest knowledge score of nurses was less regarding phlebitis associated with peripheral intravenous cannulation. After implementation of structural teaching programme the knowledge score of Nursing Staffs was improved. So it can be concluded that educational intervention was effective.
