Data were collected with help of structured knowledge questionnaire (SKQ). Results: Highly significant difference was found between the area wise and overall pre-test and post-test knowledge scores mean difference (14.16), but no significant association was found between the post-test knowledge scores when compared with the demographic variables of nurses (P>0.05). Conclusion: Tracheostomy care and management is more and more necessary in both the intensive care setting and the general ward.
