“Effectiveness Of Structured Teaching Program On Knowledge Regarding Post Covid-19 Complications Among People In Selected Area.”A Pre-Experimental Study

Abstract

When a respiratory infections illness in farmed chickens swept over North America in the late 1920s, animals initially contracted the coronavirus. The first comprehensive study describing a novel respiratory illness in chickens in North Dakota was written in 1931 by Arthur Schalk and M.C. Hawn. With significant death rates of 40–90%, the infection of newborn chicks was characterized evident gasping and listlessness.
Material & Method: The pre experimental design was used 60 people residing in selected area. To gather data, non-probability practical sampling techniques were utilized. Knowledge was evaluated using a self-structured questionnaire and a semi-structured questionnaire on demographic information. Combining descriptive and inferential statistics were used in the data collection and analysis in accordance with the purpose.
Results: According to the research, the majority of participants (48.30% of those surveyed) were between the ages of 18 and 28. Males made up 53.30 percent of the population. The majority of the population, 43.30%, lived in a rural region, while the majority of the population, 48.30%, was married. Majority of the people 21.70% of people were educated up to primary standard, Majority of the people 5% of people were government employees, Majority of the people 91.70% of people heard about post COVID-19 Majority of the people 18.30% of people heard about post Covid-19 and it’s complications from family. The results demonstrate that, in the pre-test, 16.67% of the population from the chosen region had low levels of knowledge, 50% had medium levels, and 33.33% had good levels, but none of them scored very well or very well. In the post-test, 46.67% of the participants from the chosen region scored at the good level of knowledge, 48.33% at the very excellent level of knowledge, and 5% at the exceptional level of knowledge. However, none of them scored poorly or had an average level of knowledge on the post-test. Showed that the post-test mean scores was greater than the mean knowledge score, at 18.20 with a standard deviation of 3.41. Knowledge score is correlated with age, parental status, educational attainment, employment, and heard about the difficulties with Covid-19.
Conclusion: It's crucial to gauge how well a structured training program is working to increase people's awareness of post-COVID-19 problems in the targeted population.
