Abstract

Postpartum psychosis (PPP) is a severe mental health disorder characterized by the acute onset of psychotic symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations, and mood disturbances shortly after childbirth. Although it affects 1-2 per 1,000 women globally, its impact is particularly severe in low-resource settings like Nigeria, where cultural stigma, limited mental health infrastructure, and low awareness lead to under diagnosis and poor outcomes. This study aimed to assess the awareness of puerperal psychosis among pregnant women attending the Antenatal Care (ANC) unit at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital (ATBUTH) in Bauchi, Nigeria. A descriptive survey design was employed, and data were collected from 129 respondents selected via simple random sampling, using a structured questionnaire. The results indicated that while a majority (71.32%) of respondents had heard of postpartum psychosis, there was a significant deficit in detailed knowledge. Only 56.53% could accurately define it as a severe mental disorder post-childbirth, and misconceptions about causes and symptoms were common. Key risk factors such as sleep deprivation, family history of bipolar disorder, and impaired mother-infant bonding were correctly identified by most. For prevention, respondents strongly endorsed educational programs, postnatal screening for high-risk women, frequent ANC visits, family support, and ensuring adequate rest. The study concludes that despite basic recognition of PPP, profound knowledge gaps persist among pregnant women in this setting. It underscores the urgent need for integrated, educational interventions during antenatal care and the routine inclusion of mental health screenings to facilitate early identification, management, and ultimately, improved maternal and infant outcomes in Northern Nigeria.

Abstract

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) is a critical life-saving intervention required to sustain circulation and oxygenation during cardiac arrest, especially within clinical and community settings where nurses often serve as first responders. Ensuring adequate CPR knowledge and competence among student nurses is therefore an essential component of nursing education and professional preparedness. This study assessed the level of knowledge, practice, and factors influencing CPR competency among student nurses in Aliko Dangote College of Nursing Sciences, Bauchi State. A descriptive cross-sectional survey design was adopted, and a stratified random sampling technique was employed to select 171 respondents from a target population of 597 students. Data were collected using a structured, validated, and reliable questionnaire, and analyzed using simple frequency distribution and percentages. Findings revealed that more than half of the respondents demonstrated good knowledge of CPR, including awareness of the recommended CAB sequence, appropriate depth of chest compressions, and use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). The study also showed that over 55% of student nurses possessed satisfactory CPR practice skills, such as correct hand placement, adherence to the 30:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio, and understanding the importance of full chest recoil. However, gaps were identified in areas such as advanced steps of CPR, sustained practical competence, and consistent exposure to hands-on training. The study further identified several factors influencing CPR practice, including inadequate simulation resources, limited access to trained instructors, and insufficient practical opportunities. Respondents strongly agreed that CPR competence can be improved through simulation-based learning, peer-led training, digital media support, and incentive-based motivation. The study concludes that while CPR knowledge among student nurses is generally high, practical proficiency requires further strengthening. It recommends enhanced training programs, provision of adequate learning resources, regular refresher sessions, and improved supervision to bridge the knowledge–practice gap and improve overall CPR competence among nursing students.

A self-constructed questionnaire was used for data collection. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20.0 and data were presented in frequency tables, percentages, graphs and pie charts.
