Introduction: Palliative care is patient centered approach to improve quality of life for both patients facing life threatening illnesses and also for their families. Objectives: To assess the effect of computer assisted instruction on Knowledge & attitude regarding palliative care among final year B.Sc. nursing students. Methodology: Quantitative approach with quasi experimental design was used & samples were final year B.Sc. nursing students selected through non-probability convenient sampling. Data has collected through structured questionnaire to assess knowledge, Likert scale to assess attitude. Pilot study followed by actual data collection was done & analyzed using descriptive & inferential statistics. Result: Statistical analysis shows that the pre-test mean knowledge score is 8.21 whereas the mean post-test score is 16.39. Wilcoxon signed rank test gives p value as 0.000 that has high significant as p<0.001. The mean difference in pre-test & post-test knowledge mean score was 8.18 in the experimental group whereas in control group it was 0.34. Wilcoxon signed rank test indicate that the difference in the mean score of experimental group was statistically significant than that of control group with the p value 0.00, i.e. p< 0.001 in the experimental group. Significant difference in the attitude mean score of both the groups i.e.,109.96 in experimental group & 64.39 in control group. A greater difference in mean score was observed in the experimental group. Wilcoxon sign rank test indicate that difference in mean score of experimental group was statistically significant than that of control group with p value 0.00 that is p<0.001 in experimental group. Hence, computer assisted instruction was more effective in improving knowledge & attitude regarding palliative care among Nursing students. Discussion: Finding revealed that computer assisted instruction is effective in improving knowledge & attitude regarding care of patients with tracheostomy.
