The pretest knowledge score was 39.89 % and mean score is 13.86 % and posttest knowledge score was 81.40 % and the mean score is 28.83%and enhancement mean were 41.51%. The paired t- value [t=52.85 DF=59] hence there is a significant difference between pretest and posttest knowledge score regardingblood transfusion and its complications among 3rd year GNM students in selected schools at Hassan.
