Back ground & Objectives: Obstetrical emergencies are most unpredictable complication that can be prevented by early identification, Pregnancy is arguably the magical time of a woman’s life and has its unique joys and challenges. The process is very noteworthy. The present study aimed toeffectiveness of Structured teaching programme on early identification of obstetrical emergencies among antenatal mother’s in selected hospital. Materials & methods: Quantitative Research with Pre-Experimental Research Design using a one-group pre-test post-test design among antenatal mothers. Data was collected from June 1st to June 8th, 2022 with sample size of 30, the sampling technique used was non-probability, purposive sampling. A structured questionnaire with multiple-choice questions was adapted. Data has been processed by SPSS 20 version then analyzed descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Pretest knowledge regarding early identification of Obstetrical Emergencies among antenatal women before administration of Structured teaching programme. 63.3% (19) of the antenatal mothers had inadequate knowledge, 36.7% (11) of them had moderate knowledge score, and none of them are having adequate level of knowledge score.The pre-test and post-test level of knowledge score regarding on early identification of Obstetrical Emergencies among antenatal women, before and after administration of Structured teaching programmeare highly statistically significant at P≤0.05. Conclusion: A remarkable proportion of antenatal mothers have lack of knowledge on identification of Obstetrical Emergencies. Hence, early detection and quality of Multidimensional teaching approachof antenatal mothers needs to be awareness about early identification of Obstetrical Emergencies to improve the maternal, obstetric, and neonatal outcomes.
Background: Antenatal care (ANC) is the care given to pregnant women and adolescent girls by skilled health care professionals to ensure the best health conditions for both mother and baby during pregnancyin order to avoid health issues in both the foetus and the mother, as well as healthy behaviours and parenting skills.

Materials & Methods: Quantitative research approach with a community-based cross-sectional comparative study design with samplesize of 60 primigravida mothers both rural (30 samples) at PHC, and urban (30 samples) at UHC by a non-probability convenient sampling method. The first section compiles demographic variables such as age, age at marriage, last menstrual period, expected date of delivery, religion, family type, educational status, occupation, income, place of residence, gestational weeks, and source of health information. Section B is a Semi-structured questionnaire designed to assess antenatal care knowledge. Results: The results the study revealed thatthe comparison of Mean knowledge on Antenatal care among Primi antenatal women in Rural & Urban area. It is evident that there was a highly significant difference in knowledge on antenatal care among rural and urban primigravida mother at P < 0.001 Conclusion: The finding of the study concluded that primi mothers due to the various source of information mothers get educated had good knowledge regarding antenatal care which indicated that there was still lack of knowledge in few aspects of antenatal care.
