ABSTRACT:
A quasi experimental study was carried out to assess the effectiveness of video assisted demonstration program regarding body mechanics in caring helpless patient on knowledge and practice among nursing students from a selected college in bhilai. One group pre test, post test was used for the study. Fifty nursing students was taken as sample, self structured questionnaire for knowledge and checklist for practice was taken as tool. Pre test knowledge mean was 15.2 and post test score was 20.42, mean percentage of pre test was 50.6 and post test was 68.06 and standard deviation of pre test knowledge was 4.35 and post test was 4.03, coefficient of variance of pre test is 28.6 and post test is 19.7, The paired t test value is 6.22 greater than table value 2.45 at 0.05 level of significance which proved the effectiveness of video assisted demonstration programme. Pre test practice mean was 6.02 and post test score was 7.86, mean percentage of pre test was 12.04 and post test was 15.72 and standard deviation of pre test practice was 1.156 and post test was 0.97, coefficient of variance of pre test is 19.2 and post test is 12.21, The paired t test value is 6.34 greater than table value 2.45 at 0.05 level of significance which proved the effectiveness of video assisted demonstration programme.
