Abstract
Physical assessment is one of the nursing competencies required of nursing students. The accuracy of physical assessments is the key to success in the implementation of nursing care. Many learning media can be used to deliver and understand physical assessment- one of them is audio-visual learning (videos).
The goal of this study is to incorporate audio-visual learning (video) into cardio-vascular physical assessment teaching and learning for nursing students who were continuing their studies in Pendidikan Profesi Ners. The research design was a quasi-experiment with pre-and post-test designs.
The sample included 30 respondents in the pre-test group and 30 in the post-test group. The sample was recruited by total sampling. Data were analysed using the t-dependent test.
The mean score to perform a physical assessment before the respondent was given a video was 52.17, and the standard deviation was 7.154. The mean score to perform a physical assessment after the respondent was given the video was increased- that average was 73.93, with the standard deviation being 10.075. The t-dependent test results showed a p-value of 0.000 (p-value 0.05).
It is concluded that there was a significant difference in the performance of the physical assessment before the respondent was given videos and after the respondent was given videos. Further research is expected to use a control group.
