Brief Summary

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

The aims of this study are to test the effectiveness of a nurse support using a proactive mobile app to enhance parental self-efficacy in symptom management for children using mechanical ventilations, and alongside identify factors facilitating or deterring the program implementation.

A single group pre-post quasi-experimental study on parents of CMC requiring mechanical ventilation.

Parents will be recruited from a non-government office, with an estimated sample size of 52 parents. Self-administrated questionnaire, and semi-structured interview guide will be used for data collection.

Detailed Description

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

Parents of children required mechanical ventilations at risk of high stress levels because these children have multisystem diseases, including severe neurologic conditions, resulting in potential premature death. Literature suggested that increasing parental self-efficacy in managing their child's symptoms could improve the child's health.

Nurse parental support in symptom management using a proactive mobile health application is an alternative method considered more accessible and nurse-parent interactivity to continue home-based support for the CMC and parents.

Self-administrated questionnaire, and semi-structured interview guide will be used for data collection. Descriptive statistics, including proportions for categorical variables, mean, and SD for normally distributed continuous variables, and median and inter-quartile range for non-normally distributed variables, will be reported. Generalized estimating equation will be used to address the objectives with appropriate link function. Qualitative data will be analyzed using thematic analysis to identify the facilitator, and barriers of program implementation.
