Abstract: Background: Pressure ulcers are the common conditions among patients hospitalized in acute and chronic care facilities and impose a signicant burden on patients, their relatives and caregivers. The Braden scale assesses a patient's risk of developing a pressure ulcer by examining six criteria. Sensory Perception, this parameter measures a patient's ability to detect and respond to discomfort or pain that is related to pressure on parts of their body. Moisture excessive and continuous skin moisture can pose a risk to compromise the integrity of the skin. Each category is rated on a scale of 1 to 4. Objectives: To assess the pre-test level of knowledge regarding prevention of pressure ulcer using Braden scale among staff Nurses in selected hospital. To assess the post-test level of knowledge regarding prevention of pressure ulcer using Braden scale among staff Nurses in selected hospital. To evaluate the effectiveness of Video Assisted Teaching on knowledge regarding prevention of pressure ulcer using Braden scale among staff Nurses in selected hospital. To associate the study ndings with selected demographic variables. Study design & methodology: Pre experimental one group pre -test post- test research study design will be used. A cross sectional study will be carried out. Sample size was calculated to be 60 using the formula. The knowledge of Staff Nurses will be assessed by using validated self-structured questionnaire. Expected Result: Satisfactory improvement will be elicited in knowledge score after administration of intervention regarding prevention of pressure ulcer using Braden scale among staff Nurses through Video Assisted teaching. Limitation: The study will be limited to staff Nurses in selected geographical areas. Conclusion: The study ndings will be contributed to the existing body of knowledge regarding prevention of pressure ulcer using Braden scale and explain about the intervention i.e. effectiveness of Video assisted teaching.
