Study to Assess the Structured Teaching Program Regarding Importance of Organ Donation

Organ donation is a critical public health issue, and increasing awareness is essential to meet the growing demand for organ transplants. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a structured teaching programme on improving knowledge, attitudes, and willingness to participate in organ donation among a selected population. A pre-experimental, one-group pre-test and post-test design was adopted, with participants chosen from [population or institution, e.g., "college students" or "community health workers"]. Data was collected using a validated questionnaire administered before and after the intervention. The structured teaching programme covered key aspects of organ donation, including its importance, eligibility criteria, myths and misconceptions, and the registration process. Findings demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in participants' knowledge and positive attitudes towards organ donation post-intervention. This study highlights that a structured teaching programme can effectively increase awareness and foster favorable attitudes towards organ donation, suggesting its utility in public health promotion efforts to improve organ donation rates. Further research with larger and diverse populations is recommended to generalize these findings.

Abstract

Organ donation is a critical public health issue, and increasing awareness is essential to meet the growing demand for organ transplants. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a structured teaching programme on improving knowledge, attitudes, and willingness to participate in organ donation among a selected population. A pre-experimental, one-group pre-test and post-test design was adopted, with participants chosen from [population or institution, e.g., "college students" or "community health workers"]. Data was collected using a validated questionnaire administered before and after the intervention. The structured teaching programme covered key aspects of organ donation, including its importance, eligibility criteria, myths and misconceptions, and the registration process. Findings demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in participants' knowledge and positive attitudes towards organ donation post-intervention. This study highlights that a structured teaching programme can effectively increase awareness and foster favorable attitudes towards organ donation, suggesting its utility in public health promotion efforts to improve organ donation rates. Further research with larger and diverse populations is recommended to generalize these findings.
