The rst conrmed antenatal case of COVID-19 was reported on 21st January 2020 in Qingdao, china who was a 31 years old at 30 weeks of gestation presented with mild diarrhea (2-3 times a day) for one day. To nd out effectiveness of structured Aim: teaching programme on knowledge regarding management of COVID-19 in pregnancy and childbirth among nurses in selected Hospitals, Goalpara, Assam. Quantitative research approach was used, and pre-experimental Method: one group pre-test post-test design was adopted in the study. The samples were collected using non-probability purposive sampling technique from 100 nurses, who were doing government job in selected Hospitals, Goalpara, Assam and who fullls the inclusive criteria. Structured questionnaire was used to explore the effectiveness of Structured Teaching Programme on knowledge regarding management of COVID-19 in pregnancy and childbirth Data analysis was Result: done by calculating mean, standard deviation, chi square test and t-test. A total of 100 nurses, It was found that in the pre-test, majority i.e. 77(77%), 21(21%), only two (2%) had moderate, inadequate and adequate knowledge respectively. In post-test, majority i.e. 56(56%), 44(44%), 0% had adequate, moderate and inadequate knowledge respectively. The mean knowledge score in pre-test and post-test was 17.15 and 23.29 with Standard deviation of 2.79 and 2.69 respectively. The calculated paired 't' test value is 20.960 was found to be statistically highly signicant at p<0.001 level. This shows that there was signicant difference between the pretest and posttest scores of knowledge, which clearly infers that structured teaching programme on knowledge regarding management of COVID-19 in pregnancy and childbirth was found to be effective in improving the level of knowledge among nurses in the post-test.

ABSTRACTBackground: Cardiac arrest is a health problem that is increasing to be the leading cause of death in the world. The main action to save cardiac arrest aims to maintain optimal myocardial and cerebral oxygenation so that death does not occur. Providing Basic Life Support (BLS) is an effort to save and restore this function. Knowledge about cardiac arrest among health students is still a neglected problem due to a lack of awareness in seeking basic knowledge.Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of basic life support-based simulation training on knowledge of nursing students in the city of Bengkulu.Methods: This study used a pre-experimental design with a pre-test post-test approach. The population in this study were all 61 students of the fourth semester of STIKES Tri Mandiri Sakti Bengkulu nursing students. Samples were taken using total sampling technique. Data were collected using a knowledge questionnaire containing 10 question items which were adopted from the questionnaire Yunanto et al., (2017). Data were analyzed using paired sample t-test.Result: Based on the results of the study, it was found that there was a significant effect of BLS training based on manikin simulation on nursing student knowledge with a value of t test = -15.169, p = value = 0.000 <α = 0.05.Conclusion: Nursing students need to provide knowledge about BLS from the start so that they are more confident and able to apply it in case of cardiac arrest outside the hospital. Higher education institutions should provide health education about BLS from the beginning of the academic year, so that in the following semester students are better able to improve the quality of the skills they have formed.Keywords: Basic Life Support, Knowledge, Simulation.
