Abstract | Breast cancer is a major public health concern and remains the most commonly diagnosed cancer in women globally. Early detection through screening, such as breast self-examination (BSE), can significantly improve survival rates. The study was conducted among undergraduate students to evaluate their awareness and practice of breast self-examination. This study aims to assess the knowledge and practice of breast self-examination among undergraduate students, deliver a simulation-based teaching program, to re-assess the knowledge and practice of undergraduate students following the simulation program and investigate the correlation between knowledge and practice. A total of 50 undergraduate students participated in the study. pretest mean knowledge score is (15.9±2.92) and Post-test mean knowledge score is 27.1±2.29. pretest mean practice score is (3.65±1.51) and Post-test mean practice score is( 8.18±1.11) . There is a positive correlation between knowledge and practice scores. There is significant association of knowledge and practice score with the demographic variables age and source of information. |
