Abstract :
Aims and Objectives:
The research project aims to evaluate the efficacy of
a planned education program on menopausal women's
awareness of hormone replacement treatment.Methods:
Pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test design
was used to assess the efficacy planned education
programme on knowledge regarding hormonal
replacement therapy among menopausal women at
selected rural areas in Mysore.The research was conducted using a non-probability
convenient sampling strategy in the Mysore villages of
Hanchaya and Rammanahalli, with the participation of
sixty menopausal women. To get the necessary
information, a structured knowledge questionnaire was
used. Inferential and descriptive statistics were used to
analyze the data.Result:
In the knowledge assessment, the average score
before the test was 7.43, while the average score after the
test was 16.30. There was an 8.87 standard deviation in the
pre-test and post-test scores. At the 5% significance level,
the computed Paired 't' value was 18.25. This
demonstrated the effectiveness of STP on menopausal
women's awareness of hormone replacement treatment.
Consequently, the study hypothesis (H1)—that is, the
mean knowledge score from the pre- and post-tests differs
significantly—is accepted.Interpretation and Conclusion:
This study demonstrated the efficacy of planned
education programme on hormonal replacement treatment
in women going through menopause.
