The WHO has identified hypertension, or high blood pressure, as the leading cause of cardiovascular mortality. The aim of the study was to find out effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge on life style practices of patients suffering from hypertension at selected hospitals in Jaipur (Raj.) 100 patients with suffering from hypertension were selected for the study. The effectiveness of structured teaching programme assess on the basis of overall pre test and post test score of patient which is describe as: The overall mean of pre test score is 17.73 whereas the mean of post test score is 29.88 with 12.15 mean differences. The median of pre test score is 18 and the median of post test score is 30 and the standard deviation of pre test was 1.96 whereas in post test the standard deviation was 1.52. The t value is 49.32. The tabulated value of „t‟ is 1.96 at the 0.05 level of significance on 99 degree of freedom. The calculated value is higher than the tabulated value in all aspects of knowledge so we can say that the structured teaching programme regarding life style practice of hypertension can enhance the knowledge of patients. It means that the structured teaching programme regarding life style practice of hypertension is effective to improve the knowledge of patients suffering from hypertension. Some demographic variables has significant association with knowledge and some has not significant association with knowledge.
