Abstract
Context: Menopause is a significant life event affecting millions of women globally.Menopausal transition is a difficult process and has a considerable variation among women regarding the manifestation of menopausal signs and symptoms. Aims: Evaluate the effectiveness of computer assisted teaching on menopausal transition among women residing at selected rural community. Methods and Material: A double blind study was conducted among women aged 40-55 years residing at Tarsika rural community, Amritsar, Punjab. The research design was true experimental i.e. Randomized controlled trial design. Simple random sampling technique was used to select 300 samples for the study. The tool used for the study was menopause rating scale. Computer assisted teaching was given to the experimental group immediately after pretest. Post-test I and II was conducted after one month and third month respectively. Statistical analysis used: The data gathered was analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Results revealed that in the control group, majority of women (42.7%, 47.3% and 58.7%) had severe and moderate level of menopausal transition during pretest, posttest-I and posttest-II respectively where as in experimental group, majority of women (48.7%) had severe level of menopausal transition during pretest but there was a marked change observed in the posttest-I and II level of menopausal transition. After computer assisted teaching in the experimental group, majority of women had mild level of menopausal transition (70.7% and 72.7%) in post-test I and post-test II. Conclusion: The findings revealed that the provision of computer assisted teaching has reduced the severity of menopausal symptoms and very effective during menopausal transition.
