Abstract

A comparative study was conducted to assess the knowledge regarding ECG among second year and third year B.Sc. Nursing students attending classroom teaching method with those attending video assisted teaching method in Apollo institute of nursing. A quantitative approach with comparative study design with quasi experimental approach was used to achieve the objectives of the study. The samples consisted of 60 students from second and third year of Apollo Institute of Nursing, Bhat, Gandhinagar. Simple random sampling technique was used to collect the sample. A structured questionnaire was used to assess the knowledge regarding ECG among the students. The tool was validated by the experts. Cronbach alpha was used to establish the reliability of the tools. The tool was found to be valid and reliable. Data gathered was analyzed and interpreted using both descriptive and inferential statistic. The study shows that the majority (100%) were in the age group of 18-20 years in both groups I and II. In group I, 1% was male and 99% were females and in group II, majority (100%) was females. In classroom teaching method majority (60%) of the students had average knowledge and in the video assisted teaching method majority (100%) of the students had good knowledge on ECG. The post test mean score of group I was 28+ 2.46 with the mean percentage of 66.67% after the classroom teaching and the post test mean score group II were 39.23+ 1.41 with the mean percentage of 93.41% after the video assisted teaching method. The calculated t-value was higher than the table value (t59=2.00, p<0.05). hence the null hypothesis was rejected. So it is inferred that in the present study, there was significant difference between the post test score after classroom teaching method and video assisted teaching method on ECG among second and third year BSc. Nursing students. Therefore, it can be concluded that the video assisted teaching method was effective. Based on the finding the following recommendations were proposed for future research: Similar study can be replicated on a large sample with similar baseline characteristics. A similar study can be replicated in more than one college of Nursing.
