Gauri Dake, Sharmila Ghodke
Abstract: Blood pressure is the force exerted by circulating blood against the walls of the arteries. Such a pressure measured on two or more consecutive readings above 140/90 mmHg can be considered as hypertension (HT). This silent killer progressive disease is often asymptomatic. In a data collected by WHO estimated 1.13 billion people worldwide have HT. The prevalence of HT was found to be significantly associated with occupational stress in case of school teachers. Objectives: The study conducted with primary objective to assess the effect of online teaching module on knowledge regarding HT among secondary school teachers. Materials & Method: A quantitative approach with one group pre-test post-test design was used. Whereas 60 samples were selected using purposive sampling technique from the selected schools of Maharashtra. A structured questionnaire was used to measure knowledge of secondary school teachers. Results: In pre-test level of knowledge regarding HT, the mean was found to be 18.55 with standard deviation of 3.44. In the post-test level of knowledge, the mean increased to 23.97 with standard deviation of 3.06 after intervention among secondary school teachers. Conclusion: The online teaching module was effective to increase the knowledge regarding HT among secondary school teachers. There was a significant association found for the variable education with 0.03 level of significance.
