en عمومى General پژوهشي Research <strong>Background</strong>: Clinical training on shift duty is critical to nursing education and practice. Stress in night shift duties is a common issue in the nursing field, potentially harming the well-being and academic performance of nursing students. The current study examined the effect of a targeted stress management intervention on self-reported stress levels and stress-related symptoms among night shift nursing students.&nbsp;<br> <strong>Methods</strong>: A quasi-experimental one group pretest-posttest design was adopted, with 60 students chosen from Krishna Vishwa Vidhyapeeth, Krishna Institute of Nursing Sciences, Maharashtra, Karad-India using a non-probability convenient sampling method. The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) and a self-structured questionnaire were used to measure stress and the influence of stress on nurses&#39; health. The intervention consists of four 30-minute sessions delivered on alternate days of the week through a range of teaching modalities. Following each session, students received video links and were encouraged to apply one of the appropriate stress-reduction techniques with a weekly follow-up for one month. Following 30 days, a post-test was administered. &nbsp;Data analysis was done using descriptive and inferential statistics and to test the research hypothesis, paired t test was used in InStat 3 software. The significance level was set at P<0.05. &nbsp;&nbsp;<br> <strong>Results</strong>: Pre-intervention, 36 students (60%) experienced moderate stress, followed by 16 (26.66%) experiencing mild stress, and 8 (13.33%) experiencing severe stress after the night shift. In contrast, 39 students (65%) reported mild stress and 21 (35%) reported moderate stress following the intervention. The paired t-test value was 29.854, with a P value of <0.01, which was significantly higher than the tabulated t value. After a night shift, nursing students experienced stress-related symptoms such as insomnia, loss of appetite, fatigue, decreased attention, headache, and leg discomfort, which were significantly alleviated after the intervention (P<0.05).<br> <strong>Conclusion</strong>: Stress management interventions were effective in reducing stress levels; however, students must be continually motivated to engage in these exercises daily.
