“…The majority had one to three years of work experience [10]. The work experience of the majority of the participants (51.7%) in our study was one to five years, which is similar to the study by Gulista et al [8] where 53.33% had 0-5 years of work experience.…”

“…Paired t-tests and 't' values for pre-and post-test of knowledge and expressed practices showed that the planned teaching program on obstetrical emergencies led to a significant and positive change in their knowledge and expressed practices. The coefficient of correlation between knowledge and expressed practice scores of training on MCH held at NSTC -"Daksh" is 0.46, showing a positive correlation between knowledge and expressed practice [8].…”

“…In our study, 46.7%, 45%, and 8.3% had good (score: 21-30), average (score: 11-20), and poor (score: 0-10) pre-test knowledge, respectively. Regarding the pre-test, 20% and 80% of participants had inadequate (<68%) and adequate (≥68%) knowledge, respectively in the study by Saifi et al [8]. In the study by Kabi et al, a feedback assessment was done, which showed that 58% and 52% of participants did agree that the module had a high impact on their knowledge and competence, respectively [9].…”

“…There was a significant difference between the post-test knowledge scores on the last day of training (K1) and knowledge scores assessed during the study (K2), which infers that the participants need more refresher training, in order to retain their knowledge and skills [8]. Motamed-Jahromi et al ( 2011) suggested that more advocacy was needed by Iranian nurses (sample size: 385) through educational programs and support from responsible employers [11].…”

Background and objectiveGood health and well-being occupy the third position among 17 sustainable development goals designed by the United Nations. The key to reducing maternal and newborn morbidity and mortality is competent and skilled birth attendance. The objectives of this study were to assess and compare the pre-test and post-test knowledge and expressed practices regarding selected obstetrical emergencies among staff nurses; to develop and determine the effectiveness of planned teaching programs on selected obstetrical emergencies among staff nurses; and to find out the correlation between knowledge and expressed practices regarding selected obstetrical emergencies. Materials and methodsA pre-experimental study was conducted for a period of one month in 2019 among 60 staff nurses in selected hospitals through a validated tool/questionnaire, which was piloted on six staff nurses prior to starting the study. Data were collected using a structured knowledge questionnaire and expressed practices checklist. ResultsOf note, 70% of participants had General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) as a professional qualification. The majority (51.7%) had one to five years of work experience; 46.7% of staff nurses had good knowledge in the pre-test assessment and 95% had good knowledge in the post-test evaluation. Significantly, 80% showed good expressed practices in the pre-test and 96.7% revealed good expressed practices in the post-test regarding selected obstetrical emergencies. In the pre-test, there was a significant association between the sociodemographic variables (age and work experience) with expressed practices, while that was not the case with post-test expressed practices. No significant association was found between pre-and post-test knowledge and selected demographic variables. There was a significant difference between pre-test and post-test knowledge and expressed practices score (mean pre-and post-test knowledge score: 18.82 vs. 25.43, p<0.001; mean pre-and post-test expressed practices score: 14.43 vs. 16.30, p<0.001). ConclusionBased on our findings, the planned teaching program is effective in improving the knowledge and expressed practices of staff nurses regarding selected obstetrical emergencies.
