The goal of this study was to determine the intensity of pain experienced by primiparturient women during the first stage of labour. To see how beneficial a warm compress is on the lumbar area. To see if there's a link between labour discomfort and certain demographic factors. At the 0.05 level of significance, the post-test pain score will be lower than the pre-test pain score. The research method chosen was quantitative, and the study design was pre-experimental, pre-test, and post-test. Purposive sampling was used to collect data from 60 primiparturient moms in the early stages of labour. The research was carried out at Amravati's Dayasagar Hospital. A pre-test was done using a numerical pain scale to determine pain levels among primiparturient moms who met the inclusion criteria. In the initial stage of labour, a warm compress on the lumbar area is applied for 15 minutes every half hour for four hours. The numerical pain scale is used to measure post-test pain levels. In the current study, 53.3 percent of primigravida moms in the control group reported moderate pain (scoring 4-6) and 46.6 percent had severe pain in post-test 1. (score 7-10). 36.6 percent had moderate pain (scoring 4-6) and 63.3 percent had severe pain (7-10) in post-test 2, while 13.3 percent had moderate pain (4-6) and 86.6 percent had severe pain in post-test 3. (score 7-10). In post-test 1, 70% of the experimental group experienced moderate pain (scoring 4-6) and 30% had severe pain (score 7-10). In post-test 2, 66.6 percent of participants reported moderate pain, while 33.3 percent reported severe pain. In post-test 3, 56.6 percent of participants reported moderate pain, while 43.3 percent reported severe pain. As a result, it may be stated that using a warm compress to relieve pain was successful.

A quasi experimental study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of music playback on intravenous cannulation pain among children in a selected hospital. Objectives: to assess the mean posttest pain score among children in the experimental and control group, to find out the effectiveness of music playback on intravenous cannulation pain among children and to find out the association between posttest pain score and selected socio demo graphic variables of children in control group. Quasi experimental posttest only controls group design and convenience sampling technique was used to select 60 children in a selected hospital at Alappuzha district. Conceptual framework: Ernestine Wiedenbach’s Helping Art of Clinical Nursing Theory (1969). Posttest was conducted in the control and the experimental group by using FLACC Behavioral Pain Scale and Socio demographic proforma. Music playback was played to the experimental group for 10 minutes during intravenous cannulation. The data were tabulated and analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The mean posttest pain score of children in the experimental group was 4.1 with SD 1.33 which was significantly lower than the mean posttest pain score of children in the control group which was 7.8 with SD 1.27 with a mean difference of 3.6. The calculated ‘t’ value 10.910 was greater than the table value 2.00, is significant at p<0.05 level with degree of freedom 58. Hence, we can conclude that the music playback was effective in reducing the pain level of children during intravenous cannulation. The analysis showed that the calculated chi square value for family monthly income, number of previous hospitalisations, previous exposure of cannulation were greater than that of the table value at p < 0.05 level of significance. Hence null hypothesis (H02) can be rejected and research hypothesis (H2) can be accepted. So, it can be concluded that there was significant association between posttest pain score an

This research was intended to investigate the effect of a culture-based approach in improving students’ reading comprehension on spoof text. For that purpose, a true experimental study was applied to the eleventh-grade students of SMAN 1 Soreang. The sample of this study was 88 students from that school. These students were divided equally into the control and experimental group. The experimental group was given the Culture-Based Approach (CBA) as the treatment in comprehending the text.  The students’ scores of pre-test and post-test from both groups were statistically analyzed and compared by the T-test. The findings could be summarized that generally, students from the experimental group gained better achievement than from the control group on their post-test scores. The data analysis also showed that there was a significant difference between the mean score of the pre-test (53.45) and the post-test (58.39.). Furthermore, the result of the t-test (5.707) was relatively higher than the t- table (2.018) for a 0.5 percent level of significance. It indicated that the students’ achievement was significantly improved after the treatment of using a Culture-Based Approach. Thus, it is recommended that a Culture-Based Approach should be considered as an alternative choice for English teachers in teaching spoof text.
