Effectiveness of Video Assisted Teaching Programme on Knowledge and Skill Regarding Successful Ventilation with I-Gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway among Paramedical Students at Selected Colleges, Salem

Prof. Mr. A. Sanjaikumar

Abstract: BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY, Supraglottic airway devices are now widely used for surgery requiring general anesthesia, so as to avoid the complications associated with tracheal intubation. LMA-classic is the gold standard for supraglottic airway devices and in use since 1981. I-gel Being the newer Supraglottic airway device has potential advantages including easier insertion, minimal risk of tissue compression, stability after insertion and an inbuilt bite block. Hence, the researcher has decided to assess the effectiveness of a teaching programme on knowledge and skill with two supraglottic airway devices I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway. OBJECTIVES, To assess the knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and laryngeal mask airway among paramedical students. To evaluate the effectiveness of video assisted teaching programme on knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and laryngeal mask airway among the paramedical students. To determine the relationship between knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and laryngeal mask airway among the paramedical students. To associate the pretest score on knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and laryngeal mask airway among the paramedical students and their selected demographic variables. HYPOTHESIS, There will be a significant difference between pretest and post test score on knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway among paramedical students, There will be a significant relationship between knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway among paramedical students, There will be a significant association between the pretest score on knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway among paramedical students and their selected demographic variables. METHODOLOGY, one group pretest-posttest design (pre-experimental design) was used for the study. Non probability convenience sampling technique was used for the study. FINAL RESULT AND CONCLUSION, In the pretest the level of knowledge among 50 paramedical students selected 34 (68 %) paramedical students have inadequate knowledge, 16 (32 %) paramedical students have moderately adequate knowledge and none of them have adequate knowledge regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway in their pretest, Where as in post test, 42 (84 %) paramedical students have adequate knowledge and 8 (16 %) of them have moderately adequate knowledge, none of them have inadequate knowledge regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway when compared with pretest. Among 50 paramedical students none of the paramedical students have good skill, 15 (30 %) paramedical students have average skill and 35 (70 %) of them have poor skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway in their pretest. Where as in the posttest, none of them have poor skill, 7 (14 %) of them has average skill 43 (86 %) of them have good skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway in their posttest. The Obtained value for knowledge and skill is 15.74 and 30.63 respectively, which is significant at p0.05 level. Hence the hypothesis H1 was retained. Thus it becomes evident that Video Assisted Teaching Programme is effective in improving the knowledge and skill regarding successful ventilation with I-gel and Laryngeal Mask Airway among the paramedical students
