Abstract
ABSTRACT The present study is indented to “A comparative study to assess the effectiveness of Alalekaayi water wash and Lukewarm water wash on leucorrhoea among reproductive women working in a selected institution of Bangalore” OBJECTIVES: • To assess the selected symptoms of leucorrhoea among reproductive women in experimental group I and experimental group II. • To evaluate the effectiveness of Alalekaayi water wash by comparing pre-test and post-test score on leucorrhoea among women in experimental group I. • To evaluate the effectiveness of Lukewarm water wash by comparing pre-test and post-test score on leucorrhoea among women in experimental group II. • To compare the effectiveness of Alalekaayi water wash and Lukewarm water wash on leucorrhoea among women in experimental group I and experimental group II. METHODOLOGY An evaluative approach with quasi experimental comparative design was adopted for the present study. The samples selected for the study were 40 by using non probability purposive sampling technique in which 20 were selected for Experimental group I and 20 for Experimental group II. Data was collected by using structured interview questionnaire to assess the symptoms of leucorrhoea. The experimental group I received Alalekaayi water wash which was prepared by 10g of Alalekaayi powder added in 60 ml boiled water and it was mixed with 1000 ml of warm water and experimental group II received Lukewarm water wash which was prepared by 1 liter of water and boiled up to 450-500 Celsius then made warm up to 380 Celsius as measured by lotion thermometer. This solution was used for perineal wash by experimental group I and experimental group II twice daily for 5 days. The post-test assessment of leucorrhoea was carried out after 5 days of intervention for both the groups with the help of same tool. The study was done at Vydehi institution, Bangalore. The pilot study was done from 8th March 2021 to 13th March 2021. The main study was done during the time period between 05th April 2021 and 03rd May 2021, after which data was analyzed by using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, paired and unpaired t test. MAJOR FINDINGS The significant finding was assessed by using test retest method. Correlation coefficient value of reliability is 0.98. The study results showed that pre-test and post-test assessment level of Color, Consistency of Vaginal discharge, Odour, Vaginal itching, Vaginal Burning Sensation, Quantity and Lower back pain are improved. Alalekaayi water wash t=25.43 p<0.00001***DF=19 which is Significant, Lukewarm water wash t=11.06 p<0.00001***DF=19 which is Significant. The effectiveness of Alalekaayi water wash is better than the Lukewarm water wash t=12.17 p<0.00001***DF=38 which is Significant. CONCLUSION By these interventions, we can provide the relevant information to the subjects and clearing up the misconceptions and they can understand locally available Alalekaayi water wash on leucorrhoea is the best possible treatment option among reproductive age women.
