Every human being has his own understanding of stress. Stress is a natural human response that prompts us to address challenges and threats in our lives. The types of Stress are Acute Stress and Chronic Stress. Acute Stress is the body’s quick reaction to a new and challenging situation whereas chronic stress is Long-term stress experienced for an extended period which can create a negative impact on a person’s health. Things that cause stress are “stressors,” and stress is the personal reaction to that stressors. A number of scientists classified stressors as Biological Stressors, Psychological Stressors, Acute Stressors, Chronic Stressors, Environmental Stressors, Internal Stressors and Psychosocial Stressors. Stress is influenced by internal and external factors of a person. Stress causes different types of impacts on the physical body. Stress has negative consequences on various aspects of quality of life. Chronic stress can lead to or exacerbate mood disorders such as depression and anxiety, bipolar disorder, cognitive (thinking) problems, personality changes, and problem behaviours. Stress management techniques help to reduce stress. Understanding the sources of stress provides opportunities for planning interventions that would reduce the stressors.","PeriodicalId":72313,"journal":{"name":"Asian journal of nursing education and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135165137","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}

Purpose: To assess and evaluate the intensity of pain and behavioural distress among children during invasive intravenous procedures with and without distraction technique and to determine the association between the intensity of pain, behavioural distress in children undergoing invasive intravenous procedures and selected variables. Method: An experimental approach with post test only control group design was used for the study. The sample for the study comprised of 24 children with age group of 3 - 12 years; 12 children for each experimental group and control group selected by purposive sampling with random assignment.

Jigsaw Technique is one of the cooperative learning technique in which students equally participates, prepares and leads a group thus learning for themselves as well as preparing for their group. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of jigsaw learning technique on nursing students in learning a concept of Preeclampsia, as it is found beneficial in teaching. The technique also helps to revolve the learning material for peers in learning process and thereby help to build interpersonal and interactive skills among students. 50 B.Sc nursing students were selected and their pre-knowledge level on the concepts of preeclapmpsia was assessed. The same group was taught the Jigsaw Technique of learning to study the concept and the students were divided into 5 groups. A day was fixed to organize the Jigsaw classroom. After one week, their post knowledge was assessed. There was a significant difference in the performance of the students on the self-administered questionnaire before and after the intervention.

Objectives of The Study: 1 To assess the Knowledge of nurses regarding Biomedical waste management. 2 To assess the Attitude of nurses regarding Biomedical waste management. 3 To correlate the knowledge and attitude of nurses regarding Biomedical waste management. 4 To find out the association between the Knowledge and Attitude of nurses regarding Biomedical waste management and selected socio-demographic variables. Method: A descriptive approach with descriptive survey design was used for this study. The study was carried out in selected hospitals of Gulbarga. The sample comprised of 100 nurses who met the inclusion criteria from the selected hospitals were chosen by purposive sampling technique. Data was collected by administering a structured knowledge questionnaire and Likert’s Attitude scale. The data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics Results: Mean percentage of knowledge score was 57.3%. Majority 66% had moderate knowledge regarding biomedical waste management. Mean percentage of attitude score was 73.49%. Majority 60% had moderately favourable attitude regarding biomedical waste management. The correlation between knowledge and attitude was found to be significant (r- 0.617). No significant association was found between the knowledge and selected demographic variables such as gender, designation, previous information and working area (χ2 =1.846, 3.375, 11.237 and 11.647).
