The present study was conducted to compare the effect of interactive multimedia and illustrated booklet methods on knowledge, attitude and improvement of behavior in preventing lower back pain amongst lower back pain amongst nurses.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this single blind randomized controlled trial, 153 eligible nurses working in hospitals during 2019 were enrolled. The participants were randomly allocated into three parallel groups: interactive multimedia (n=55), illustrated booklet (n= 55), and the control (n= 43). The study samples were blinded to intervention and control groups. A researcher-made questionnaire was completed by the eligible subjects before, after, and four weeks after the intervention to assess their knowledge, attitude and behavior in preventing chronic lower back pain amongst working nurses.
