effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge and practices regarding prevention of Intestinal Worm infestations among the mothers of 1 5 years children
International Journal of Nursing Education, 2015Co-Authors: Daljit KaurAbstract:A quasi experimental study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge and practice regarding prevention of Intestinal Worm infestations among the mothers of 1–5 years children in selected villages of Moga, Punjab. A non equivalent quasi experimental design is used for study. A 60 mothers were selected, 30 for experimental and 30 for control group by using purposive sampling method. Pre test of both the groups was taken on different days using structured knowledge questionnaire to assess knowledge and checklist to assess the practice, following which structured teaching was administered to experimental group with the help of A.V. aids. Three days after structured teaching post test was conducted with the same tools of both experimental and control group. The findings of the study revealed that mean post test knowledge score (17.63) and practice score (16.60) were significantly higher than pre test knowledge score (12.67) and practice score (12.97) respectively in experimental group. The difference between the mean pre test and post test knowledge and practice score was highly significant at p <0.001 level. Whereas in control group mean post test knowledge score (13.27) and practice score (13.17) were significantly higher than pre test knowledge score (13.17) and practice score (13.10) respectively. The difference between the mean pre test and post test knowledge and practice score was statistically non significant at p<0.05 level in control group. There was positive co-relation between knowledge and practice of experimental group and control group significant at p<0.01. There was statistically significant effect of Age of mothers, Education of mother, Education of husband, Occupation of mother, Occupation of husband, and Type of family on pre test and post practice score of experimental and control group expect Monthly family income, Religion, Source of information and Number of children. So the study concluded the structured teaching programme on prevention of Intestinal Worm infestation was effective in increasing the knowledge and practice mothers regarding prevention of Intestinal Worm infestations.

health education and the control of Intestinal Worm infections in china a new vision
Parasites & Vectors, 2014Co-Authors: Donald P Mcmanus, Franziska A Bieri, Yuesheng Li, Gail M Williams, Liping Yuan, Yang Henglin, Zunwei DuAbstract:Background The transmission of soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) is associated with poverty, poor hygiene behaviour, lack of clean water and inadequate waste disposal and sanitation. Periodic administration of benzimidazole drugs is the mainstay for global STH control but it does not prevent re-infection, and is unlikely to interrupt transmission as a stand-alone intervention.

health education and the control of Intestinal Worm infections in china a new vision
Faculty of Health; Institute of Health and Biomedical Innovation, 2014Co-Authors: Donald P Mcmanus, Franziska A Bieri, Yuesheng Li, Gail M Williams, Liping Yuan, Yang Henglin, Zunwei DuAbstract:Background: The transmission of soil-transmitted helminths (STHs) is associated with poverty, poor hygiene behaviour, lack of clean water and inadequate waste disposal and sanitation. Periodic administration of benzimidazole drugs is the mainstay for global STH control but it does not prevent re-infection, and is unlikely to interrupt transmission as a stand-alone intervention. Findings: We reported recently on the development and successful testing in Hunan province, PR China, of a health education package to prevent STH infections in Han Chinese primary school students. We have recently commenced a new trial of the package in the ethnically diverse Xishuangbanna autonomous prefecture in Yunnan province and the approach is also being tested in West Africa, with further expansion into the Philippines in 2015. Conclusions: The work in China illustrates well the direct impact that health education can have in improving knowledge and awareness, and in changing hygiene behaviour. Further, it can provide insight into the public health outcomes of a multi-component integrated control program, where health education prevents re-infection and periodic drug treatment reduces prevalence and morbidity.

association between socioeconomic status and the prevalence of Intestinal Worm infection in primary school children
Paediatrica Indonesiana, 2016Co-Authors: Sri Alemina Ginting, Isra Firmansyah, Dedi Satria Putra, Dachrul Aldy, Syahril Pasaribu, Chairuddin P LubisAbstract:Background In Indonesia, medical problems are indicated by diseases associated with low socioeconomic status. The preva- lence of Intestinal Worm is still high in Indonesia. Objective The purpose of this study was to find the association between socioeconomic status and the prevalence of Intestinal Worm infection. Methods A cross sectional study was done on 120 primary school children in Suka Village, Karo District, North Sumatra Province. Subjects were selected by means of random sampling. Kato Katz method was used in stool examination. Socioeconomic status was referred from the Survey Keluarga Sejahtera (Wealth Family Sur- vey) 1998 by the BKKBN (the National Coordination Board on Family Planning). Data of socioeconomic status were collected by interview using a questionnaire and analyzed by chi square test; p value of <0.05 was considered to be statistically significant. Results Eighty-four subjects (70%) suffered from Intestinal Worm infection. There was no significant association between either age (p=0.811) or nutritional status (p=0.792) and Intestinal Worm infec- tion, but there was significant association between sex and intes- tinal Worm infection (p=0.028). There was also association between Intestinal Worm infection and father’s education (p=0.044). Mother’s occupation had a significant association with Intestinal Worm in- fection (p=0.001), but father’s occupation (p=0.474) did not. Nei- ther parents’ income (p=0.429) nor socioeconomic status (p=0.098) was associated with Intestinal Worm infection. Conclusion There was significant association between Intestinal Worm infection and sex, father’s education or mother’s occupation
