Brief Summary

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

This research will be carried out to determine the effect of the relaxation program applied to the caregivers of children followed by the diagnosis of cancer on the levels of caregivers' anxiety and coping with stress. The research will be conducted in a single-blind parallel-group randomized controlled trial design. A relaxation program including progressive muscle relaxation exercises will be applied to caregivers. The application will be carried out by sending muscle relaxation videos and videos for relaxation to mothers. The relaxation program is planned to last approximately 6 weeks

Detailed Description

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

In this study, a relaxation program will be applied to mothers who have a child followed up with a cancer diagnosis. The relaxation program will include progressive muscle relaxation exercises and videos for relaxation. Initial applications will be implemented with caregivers. The relaxation program is planned to last 6 weeks. The program is planned to last 8 weeks in total, with pre-test and post-test applications. Caregivers will then be asked to perform the treatments each week. Coping with Stress and State-Trait Anxiety Scale will be used at the beginning and end of the program.
