The level of knowledge about COVID-19 was gathered using a standardised Da-In Park tool. After arranging and analysing the data, the results of the pre-test showed that 43.63% of the samples did not have sufficient knowledge, 56.36% had moderate knowledge and no sample had good knowledge. The researchers examined the values after the COVID-19 structured curriculum test, which showed that the structured curriculum had a positive effect on improving participants’ knowledge of COVID-19 (t value was 14.07 with a p value of 0.001) and the result was significant at p < 0.5. The study deduces that though the country has been through a lot of changes and methods in imparting health educational knowledge on COVID-19 from the first hit of COVID infection in India, still there is a great amount of lag among the people, even healthcare professional students, on knowledge related to COVID-19. The study clearly shows us that improvement in education through all media and social media might have a great impact on improving knowledge.","PeriodicalId":408166,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Holistic Nursing","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126653391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many types of research have been done to prove that early ambulation improves postoperative recovery, reduces the incidence of postoperative complications and promotes early discharge. Modified early ambulation is a non-pharmacological method of postoperative management and has the advantage of being cost-effective, easy to provide, and safe. Methodology: A quasi-experimental post-test-only control group design was adopted for the study. The study was carried out on 50 abdominal surgery patients (25 in the experimental group and 25 in the control group) who were admitted to the surgical wards of the Sher-i-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences, Soura Kashmir. Results: The findings of the study revealed that there was a significant (p=0.05) increase in scores of functional activity of patients in the experimental group than in the control group. At 40 hours, 64 hours and 88 hours, the (Mean ± SD) functional activity scores of experimental group were (5.76 ± 1.508, 2.12 ± 0.927, 8.16 ± 0.624) and control group (5.80 ± 2.121, 8.80 ± 0.500 and 8.16 ± 1.248) with the p-value of 0.00, 0.00 and 0.0213 respectively. There was statistically no significant association between functional activity among patients after abdominal surgery in control group with any of the demographic and clinical variables i.e., age (p = 0.065), Gender (p = 0.132), Pre hospitalization levels of activity (p = 0.588), Previous abdominal surgery (p = 0.692), Previous knowledge about postoperative ambulation (p = 0.692) and Comorbidity (p = 0.238).

The data was collected from selected hospitals of Jabalpur city using purposive sampling technique. The sample comprised 40 postnatal mothers. The tools used for collecting demographic data were an interview along with the analogue pain scale and Hill & Humenic breast engorgement scale. Application of cabbage leaves was done for 20 minutes after breastfeeding for reduction of breast engorgement. Result: The assessment of the breast engorgement scale in this study was done in control and experimental groups. The pre and post interventional scores of the experimental group were compared. Findings related to the comparison of severity of the breast engorgement score with and without application of cabbage leaves in the control and experimental groups by the unpaired t-test showed t = 3.90 at the 0.05 level of significance, which proved that cabbage leaves are beneficial for the reduction of breast engorgement.
