Cardiac catheterization serves dual purposes, depending on the intended classification. The primary purpose involves diagnostic cardiac catheterization, encompassing coronary angiography, cardiac biopsy, right heart catheterization, ventriculography, and intracoronary ultrasound. The secondary purpose involves interventional cardiac catheterization, which includes procedures such as angioplasty, cardiac stenting, mitral valvuloplasty, as well as repairs for patent foramen ovale or atrial septal defects. Often, both objectives are addressed concurrently. As cardiologists worldwide continue to explore novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for cardiovascular diseases, cardiac catheterization remains a pivotal procedure, offering both diagnostic and therapeutic benefits. If a catheter is inserted through the femoral or groin artery, the process is termed left cardiac catheterization, whereas placing the catheter in the right femoral vein to gauge the pressure in the right side of the heart is referred to as right-sided catheterization. Title of the topic “A Study To Assess The Effectiveness Of Self Instructional Module (SIM) On Pre And Post Procedural Care Of Cardiac Catheterization Among Staff Nurses At A Selected Hospital, Udaipur.” The objective of the study was to assess the pre-test knowledge of staff nurses regarding pre & post procedural care of undergoing cardiac catheterization. To assess the post-test knowledge of staff nurses regarding pre & post procedural care of undergoing cardiac catheterization. To compare the pre-test and post-knowledge score of staff nurses regarding pre & post procedural care of staff nurses undergoing cardiac catheterization. To assess the pre-test knowledge of staff nurses regarding pre & post procedural care of undergoing cardiac catheterization with selected demographic variables. The method adopted for the present study was quantitative experimental research approach, as the study aimed at nursing intervention (Self instructional modules) for assessing the level of knowledge among staff nurses admitted in Geetanjali hospital & Pacific hospital. This approach would help the investigator to evaluate the effect of specific intervention that is “Self instructional modules” on staff nurses in selected hospitals at Udaipur. In this study samples were drawn by using purposive sampling technique. Data was collected by using standardized structured knowledge questionnaire. Result revealed that In the pre-test or prior to the administration of Self instructional module, majority of the sample had average knowledge i.e. 39 (78%), whereas 11 (22%) had poor knowledge and none (0.00%) participants had good knowledge regarding pre & post procedural care of undergoing cardiac catheterization. In the post-test after to the administration of Self instructional module, majority of the sample had good knowledge i.e. 49 (74%), whereas 11 (26%) had average knowledge and none (0.00%) participants had poor knowledge regarding pre & post procedural care of undergoing cardiac catheterization. The improvement in level of knowledge from pre-test to post-test the mean was 10.88 to 22.43, SD was 2.04 to 2.30.; mean percentage was 36.25% to 74.78%. The mean difference percentage was 38.01. The data further represent that the, “t” value of 29.972 was significantly higher than the table value 2.00 at 0.05 level. This indicates that there was difference in pre-test and post-test level of knowledge score of participants and the self-instruction module was effective to improve the level of knowledge score regarding pre & post procedural care of undergoing cardiac catheterization among staff nurses. Hence, the research hypothesis H1 was proved and accepted. There was a significant association between pre-test level of knowledge score with selected demographic variables such as age in years (?2=17.148), religion (?2=32.873), educational qualification (?2=17.1), and attended any in-service educational programs on Cardiac catheterization procedure (?2=7.413) were significant at 0.05 level and there was no significant association between pre-test knowledge level or gender (?2=3.337), and years of experience (?2=1.497) at 0.05 level. Hence, research hypothesis H2 is accepted.
