A quasi-experiment with non-randomized control
group design was used to find out the effect of structured teaching module on
prevention of menopausal osteoporosis among conveniently selected174 women
(control–87 & experimental group–87) residing at selected urban regions of
Maharashtra..To collect data on demographic variables & knowledge regarding
prevention of menopausal osteoporosis, a Structured Interview Schedule was used
among women in control & experimental group before and after an
intervention. After a pre- test, the structured teaching module was used to
teach on prevention of menopausal osteoporosis among 87 women of experimental
group whereas no such deliberation was made in control group. However, after
one week, the post test was conducted among women in control & experimental
group to assess the effect of structured teaching module on prevention of
menopausal osteoporosis
Results: From the findings, it was observed that the
pre-intervention demographic variables of women in control and experimental
group were more or less similar revealing both the groups had similar
characteristics. It was observed that the mean knowledge (control group; 9.28+2.11%
& experimental group; 8.7+1.85) on prevention of menopausal
osteoporosis among women were moreor less similar before intervention.
