ABSTRACT:
The study was conducted to assess the effect of planned teaching programme on the knowledge on DASH diet among hypertensive patients of selected wards of JMMC & RI, Thrissur. The objectives of the study were to assess the level of knowledge on DASH diet, to determine the effect of planned teaching programme on DASH diet and to associate socio demographic and clinical data variables with pre-test level knowledge on DASH diet among hypertensive patients in selected wards of JMMC & RI, Thrissur. Quantitative research approach with quasi experimental one group pre-test post-test design was used in the study. The study was conducted in selected wards (cardiology and nephrology) of JMMC &RI, Thrissur. The study population included hypertensive patients above the age of 40 years. Teaching was provided and data collected from 40 samples were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Major findings of the study were that the overall mean post-test score (26.88) was significantly higher than the mean pre-test knowledge score (16.10). This showed the effectiveness of the planned teaching programme on DASH diet. This finding is supported by a study by Suneesh PM in Unicare hospital at Rajkot. The study was to assess the effectiveness of STP on knowledge regarding DASH diet in controlling blood pressure among hypertensive patients. The mean pre-test knowledge score is 6.63 and the post-test knowledge score is 15. Statistically, there was significant association between the age of the hypertensive patients with the level of knowledge on DASH diet.
