Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study was conducted in order to inform, the women with chronic disease in rural areas, about hand-washing and nutrition, and to evaluate the efficiency of the training program. A randomized-controlled trial was performed based on CONSORT checklist. 90 women in total were included in the study, 45 for each group. The women in the intervention group were given, by the researcher, the training on the importance of hand-washing and appropriate food choices. The training given to the women in rural areas created significant benefit for them to have the appropriate food choices and hand-washing behaviours.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Intervention group

The women with chronic disease were met, and the Descriptive Information Form, Social Hand-Washing Knowledge Form and the "Nutritional Knowledge Level Scale for Adults" were filled with the volunteer ones face-to-face at their homes, complying with the social distance rules before the training. After the data was collected, the women in the intervention group were trained on "Hand-Washing and Nutrition during the COVID-19 period". The training on hand-washing and nutrition was given using the "Hand-Washing and Nutrition Training Guide" prepared by the researchers, and the "Hand-Washing and Nutrition Training Manual" covering the content of the training, was distributed to the women at the end of the training. The data collection forms were re-filled three months after the training.

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

After the data was collected, the women in the intervention group were trained on "Hand-Washing and Nutrition during the COVID-19 period". The training on hand-washing and nutrition was given using the "Hand-Washing and Nutrition Training Guide" prepared by the researchers, and the "Hand-Washing and Nutrition Training Manual" covering the content of the training, was distributed to the women at the end of the training

Control group

The women with chronic disease were met, and the Descriptive Information Form, Social Hand-Washing Knowledge Form and the Nutritional Knowledge Level Scale for Adults were filled face-to-face at their homes with the ones volunteering to participate in the study, complying with the social distance rules. The same survey was re-filled after three months. No training was given to the women with chronic disease during the three-month period. After the research was completed, a 45 minute-training which is the same with the one provided to the intervention group was given individually to the control group, complying the social distance rules.
