These infections may involve patients, health care worker and visitors. In spite of increase morbidity, they also account for a considerable financial and personal burden. Though its prevention is extremely simple and easy to practice, yet it is often over looked. This is leading to distressing consequences for both health care workers and their patients, so minimum standard safety precaution therefore needed to adopt to ensure compliance with the guidelines of the infection control programme and awareness need to be created among the staff nurses about infection control1. The present study aimed at assessing the effectiveness of Structural Teaching Programme (STP) on CLABSI in terms of knowledge and skill among staff nurses. OBJECTIVES: 1. To assess the level of knowledge of staff nurses regarding prevention of central line associated blood stream infection. 2. To identify the skill of staff nurses regarding prevention of central line associated blood stream infection. 3. To evaluate the effectiveness ofstructured teaching programme (STP) on prevention of central line associated blood stream infection. 4. To find out the relationship between the following. Pre-test knowledge score and pre-test skill scores. Post-test knowledge score and post-test skill scores. 5. To find out the association between the following: (a) Post test knowledge score and year of experience of the staff nurses. (b) Post test skill score and year of experience of the staff nurses. HYPOTHESES: All hypotheses will be tested at 0.05 level of significance. H1-Mean post test knowledge score of staff nurses who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI will be significantly higher than the mean pre-test knowledge score. H2- Mean post test skill score of staff nurses who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI will be significantly higher than the mean pre-test skill score. H3- (a) There will be significant relationship between pre-test knowledge score and pre-test skill score among staff nurses, who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI. (b) There will be significant relationship between post-test knowledge score and post-test skill score among staff nurses, who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI H4 (a) There will be significant association between post-test knowledge score and selected demographic variables among staff nurses, who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI . (b) There will be significant association between post-test skill score and selected demographic variables among staff nurses who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI.

Sampling Technique: Sampling refers to the process of selecting a portion of population to represent the entire population. In this study purposive sampling technique has been used to select the sample. Purposive sampling is based on the belief that a researcher’s knowledge about the population can be used to handpick the cases to be included in the sample.

MAJOR FINDINGS OF THE STUDY: H1. Mean post-test knowledge score of staff nurses who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI will be significantly higher than the mean pre-test knowledge score. H2. Mean post-test skill score of staff nurses who received structured teaching programme (STP) regarding CLABSI will be higher than the mean pre-test skill score. H3. (a) There will be a significant relationship between pre-test knowledge score and pre-test skill score among staff nurses, who received STP regarding CLABSI. (b) There will be a significant relationship between post-test knowledge score and post-test skill score among staff nurses who received STP regarding CLABSI. H4. (a) There will be a significant association between the post-test knowledge score and selected demographic variables among staff nurses who received STP regarding CLABSI. (b) There will be a significant association between the post-test skill scores and selected demographic variables, among staff nurses who received CLABSI. CONCLUSIONS: The present study assessed the knowledge of staff nurses on CLABSI and found that maximum number of staff nurses 15 (50%) had average knowledge and 6 (20%) had inadequate knowledge and only remaining 9 (30%) had adequate knowledge.
