Intervention  Planned Teaching on Early detection of diabetic nephropathy  Participants received a planned teaching programmed on strategies for early detection of diabetic nephropathy consisting of three 40-minute sessions delivered over two weeks (total contact time 120 minutes). A single 30-minute booster session at 4 weeks reinforced key points. Knowledge was measured at baseline (pre-test), within 1 week after the final session (immediate post-test), and at 3 months post-intervention to assess retention.

It is thought that self-care is essential to managing diabetes mellitus. The patient’s knowledge and attitude regarding self-care activities might be enhanced by appropriate health education.

OBJECTIVES

1.      Assess thThe present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding strategies for early detection of diabetic nephropathy among diabetic patients. The findings revealed a significant improvement in the post-test knowledge scores compared to the pre-test scores. This indicates that the planned teaching programme was effective in enhancing the participants’ understanding of early warning signs, risk factors, and preventive strategies for diabetic nephropathy.e existing knowledge regarding diabetic nephropathy among diabetic patients.

2.      Assess the effectiveness of planned teaching on knowledge regarding diabetic nephropathy among diabetic patients.

3.      To associated the posttest knowledge score with selected demographic variables.

METHODOLOGY

A quasi-experimental one-group pretest and posttest design was used. A sample of 125 diabetic patients was selected using convenience sampling from Wardha. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire assessing the knowledge of diabetic patients. A planned teaching session was conducted, followed by a post-test to evaluate its effectiveness. Statistical analysis using SPSS 27.0

RESULTS

Findings indicated a significant improvement in knowledge scores post-intervention. Demographic variables such as age, education level type of diabetes showed a positive corelation with post test scores.

CONCLUSION

The present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding strategies for early detection of diabetic nephropathy among diabetic patients. The findings revealed a significant improvement in the post-test knowledge scores compared to the pre-test scores. This indicates that the planned teaching programme was effective in enhancing the participants’ understanding of early warning signs, risk factors, and preventive strategies for diabetic nephropathy.
