A pre-experimental research study was conducted to assess the effect of self-instructional module regarding self-care management of prenatal mothers with PIH in selected hospitals of Ernakulam district by using a structured questionnaire. The objectives of the study were to assess the knowledge level of prenatal PIH women before administering the self-instructional module, determine the effect of the self-instructional module on self-care management of PIH in prenatal mothers, and associate the pre-test knowledge scores with their selected demographic variables. The conceptual model used for this study was based on Pender’s health promotion model. A quantitative research approach with a pre-experimental one-group pre-test post-test design was used in this study. Settings selected were selected hospitals of Ernakulam district. The population under study was prenatal PIH women admitted to antenatal wards. A total of 40 prenatal mothers with PIH were selected at the sampling stage. The tool for data collection consists of a structured questionnaire to collect demographic variables and to assess the knowledge level before and after the administration of the self-instructional module. The reliability and validity of the tool was established. The pilot study was conducted to assess the feasibility. A structured questionnaire was administered after obtaining an informed consent. Analysis was done by using a paired ‘t-test. It was concluded that the self-instructional module was effective in improving the knowledge regarding self-care management of PIH. Implications of the study and its findings regarding nursing service, education, administration, and research were made and necessary recommendations were suggested.
