ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of a structured teaching program regarding episiotomy care among postnatal mothers. A pre-experimental design was used in the study, which was conducted among 30 postnatal mothers who had delivered through normal vaginal delivery with episiotomy at a selected hospital. The study found that the structured teaching program significantly improved the knowledge of the postnatal mothers about episiotomy care, as reflected in the comparison of pre-test and post-test scores. Statistical analysis revealed a significant difference in knowledge scores, indicating the effectiveness of the structured teaching program.
