Abstract
Cardiac catheterization is a valuable diagnostic procedure which does a comprehensive examination of how the heart and its blood vessels function. One or more catheters is inserted through a peripheral blood vessel in the antecubital artery or vein or femoral artery or vein with x-ray guidance. This procedure gathers information such as adequacy of blood supply through the coronary arteries, blood pressures, blood flow throughout chambers of the heart, collection of blood samples, and x rays of the heart's ventricles or arteries. Patient safety is defined as being free from accidental harm as a result of a health care encounter. It is the responsibility of the cardiac catheterization team to make that commitment to every patient and to each other. A well-functioning unit with a culture of safety, demonstrated clinical quality outcomes, and high internal/external customer satisfaction scores can avoid the risks associated with a less reliable unit. OBJECTVE: The main objective of the study is to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge and practice regarding patient safety after cardiac catheterization at Sudha Institute of Medical Sciences, Erode. METHODS: One group pre test and post test design was used for this study. The independent variable in this study was structured teaching programme on patient safety after cardiac catheterization. The dependent variable in this study was knowledge and practice. The study was conducted at Sudha Institute of Medical Sciences, Erode which is a 300 bedded hospital. Sample included cardiac nurses at Sudha Institute of Medical Sciences, Erode who fulfils the inclusion criteria were selected by non probability purposive sampling technique. FINDINGS: The findings depicts that the pretest mean score of knowledge was 17.57±7.24 and the post test mean score was 32.23±3.37. The mean improvement score was 14.67 i.e., 36.67%. The calculated paired‘t’ test value of t = 9.376 was found to be statistically highly significant at p < 0.001 level. The findings also depict that, the pretest mean score of practice was 8.07±3.87 and the post test mean score was 15.77±2.09. The mean improvement score was 7.70 i.e., 38.5%. The calculated paired‘t’ test value of t = 10.342 was found to be statistically highly significant at p < 0.001 level. From the above findings it is clearly indicated that structured teaching programme administered to cardiac nurses on knowledge and practice regarding patient safety after cardiac catheterization was found to be effective to improve the post test level of knowledge and practice among cardiac nurses. The present study conducted by the investigator, mainly focused on the structured teaching programme to improve the knowledge and practice on patient safety after cardiac catheterization and was found effective and also the researcher insisted the cardiac nurses to follow the skills in practical set up.
