, that will rise to 95%. By taking action now and by working together, we can reverse the current trends and save million of adults and children from death and disability between now and 2020, and many millions more people in the years beyond. Now - a-days only a few children walk to school compared to previous generation. This is because parents feel safe to drive their children to school resulting in poor road crossing skills among children. Hence, children should be given awareness regarding road safety. There is less number of research studies done on knowledge of primary school children regarding road safety measures. By watching school children after their school timings, walking as they like, getting shouting by vehicle drivers, passers-by, vendors, house-wives, the researcher felt the need to educate the children regarding road safety measures. If the children are educated regarding causes and prevention of road traffic accidents, rules and regulations for crossing the roads and signal lights, such type of accidents can be reduced to an extent. The purpose of this study was assessing the existing level of knowledge regarding road safety among 5 th standard school children and providing 26061 Ceeba Francis et al.

Lengthy periods of immobilization are emotionally stressful for patients. Immobility related problems include pressure ulcers, pneumonia, constipation, loss of appetite, urinary stasis, urinary track infections and venous stasis or deep vein thrombosis.

Nidal F Eshah et al (2010) depicted that Improving cardiac related knowledge to further healthy lifestyles is the best preventive strategy against coronary heart diseases. Previous studies revealed a critical shortage in all-around cardiac related knowledge, plus an overall shortage in adopting healthy lifestyle behaviors.To evaluate the effectiveness of an education, counseling and beha vioral skill-building program (Jordanian working adults) knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about CHD and adoption of a healthy lifestyle were given to Jordanian working adult. One hundred six subjects completed the post-test questionnaires. Experimental group showed significantly better cardiac related knowledge, better scores for attitudes, and better scores for the health responsibility, nutritional behaviors, inte rpersonal relationships and total HPLP-II score. Subject's beliefs, physical activity, spiritual growth and stress management were not improved significantly. Men had better scores in beliefs and women had better scores for health responsibility. Individual commitment to healthier lifestyles should be encouraged, and researchers have to design and apply more specific interventions that are directed toward improving factors that have not significantly improved through traditional programs. 20

40% of students were delivering ventilations in excess of the standard. This study shows that school children have the capacity to acquire CPR/AED skills from a three hour programme in BLS. Consistent with previous studies, students also had greater confidence in their ability to perform CPR/AED skills and a greater willingness to intervene in an emergency situation after training (Vaillancourt, 2008, Donohoe et al. 2006).The results of this study show that students performed quality CC at an acceptable standard. They had greater difficulty performing adequate ventilations, with problems inflating in excess of the standard. This supports existing evidence that delivering ventilations is a difficult skill for lay people and argues that it would be reasonable to simplify CPR procedures and concentrate lay rescuers’ energy on CC (Sanders and Ewy, 2005, Kellum, 2007). Chest compression-only CPR has also the added advantage of eliminating mouth-to-mouth contact and associated risk of contracting infection, which was identified as the greatest barrier to performing CPR in this study.

Teacher should be able to know all such things through the study of educational psychology. Such knowledge can contribute to the promotion of learning process and developing studentV¶ personalities positively by understanding about individual disabilities.
