BACKGROUND: Women face a physiological and psychological struggle during labor. When labor approaches, it may be a time of contrasting feelings, with anxiety and anticipation coexisting with optimism and pleasure. AIM: To assess the effectiveness of acupressure on Labor pain during the rst stage of Labor among expectant mothers among experimental and control group. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The researcher adopted the evaluative research approach. Quasi experimental research design was used by the investigator. The accessible population for the study was mothers during rst stage of labor admitted in Medical College Jabalpur M.P. selected through purposive sampling technique. RESULTS: The majority of participants in the study sample had a mild level of pain, 44 percent had extreme pain, and 4 percent had very severe pain, according to the pretest score anger of pain level. The majority of participants in the control group have a moderate level of pain, 32% have an extreme level of pain, and 12% have slight pain. CONCLUSION: The ndings of this study indicate that non-pharmacologic interventions such as acupressure are successful in promoting relaxing and enhancing forces, allowing women to face the demands of labor. Acupressure is also an accurate, convenient, non-invasive, and cost-effective procedure that can be used in labor without causing harm to the mother or the baby, according to this report

Background: Immunization is one of the most cost-effective public health interventions to reduce child mortality and morbidity associated with infectious diseases. The objective of this study was to determine the perceptions of caregivers on immunization in Ntungamo district.Methods: Quasi-experimental study was used with health centres assigned to intervention and control groups. Purposive sampling was used to select the two counties where the study was done. Proportional sampling was done to get study samples from each health facility, while systematic sampling was done to get study participants. A total of 787 children from twelve health facilities provided the study sample. A post intervention evaluation was conducted to determine the effect of these interventions. Association of variables was tested using Mann Whitney U-test and Chi-square.Results: On benefits, most caregivers in the intervention group (85.3%) and in the control group (54.3%) regarded immunization as very highly and moderately beneficial to their children respectively. On risks, most caregivers in the intervention group (85.5%) and control group (43.1%) regarded the risk factor associated with immunization as very low and moderate respectively. From hypothesis testing, there was a significant difference on the perceived benefits and risks of immunization between the intervention and control group.Conclusions: Most caregivers in the intervention and control group regarded immunization as very highly beneficial and moderately to their children respectively. Most of the caregivers in the intervention and control group regarded the risk factor associated with immunization as very low and moderate respectively.

Objective: To determine the effect of paired formative assessment on students’ learning. Study Design: Quasi experimental study. Place and Duration of Study: Islamic International Medical College Rawalpindi, from Jan 2018 to Jun 2018. Methodology: A total of 160 students who attended otolaryngology module were included in the study. Randomized allocation was done by computerized software programme and students were divided into 2 groups i.e. experimental (group A) and control group (group B). Later on in group A, pairing of students was done by lottery method. Group A and B were dealt with paired and individual formative assessment respectively. Effectiveness of both methods of learning was calculated on the basis of academic scores obtained in tests consisting of 20 MCQs from predefined and taught syllabus. A p-value were obtained by applying independent sample t-test and considered statistically significant at 0.05. Results: Out of 160 participants, 94 (58.7%) were females and 66 (41.3%) were males. In individual testing phase mean scores of group A was 13.36 ± 2.22 and mean scores of group B was 13.24 ± 2.5 (p 0.861). In paired formative assessment phase, mean scores of group A was 16.70 ± 1.94 (CI 95% 2.16-4.55) and mean of scores of group B was 13.40 ± 2.23 (CI 95% 2.16-4.55) p=0.001. Conclusion: The effectiveness of paired formative assessment. This method provides students a conducive environment to achieve learning objectives.
