Brief Summary

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

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a video-based educational intervention delivered via QR code to parents of hospitalized children aged 6 months to 5 years-an age group in which febrile seizures are most commonly observed.

Detailed Description

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

Method: This study will be designed as a randomized controlled trial. The study population will consist of parents of children aged between 6 months and 5 years who are hospitalized in the pediatric wards of Kdz. Eregli State Hospital during the data collection period (September 1, 2024 - September 1, 2025). The sample will include 100 parents-50 in the intervention group and 50 in the control group-who meet the inclusion criteria.

Eligibility criteria for sampling; The child must have been hospitalized. The child must be between 6 months and 5 years of age. The parent must be able to speak and understand Turkish. The parent must agree to participate in the study Data collection: Between September 1, 2024, and September 1, 2025, the "Child and Parent Introductory Information Form" and the "Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Level Scale for Parents/Caregivers" will be completed by participants who meet the eligibility criteria.

No educational session or brochure will be provided to the control group. In the intervention group, after completing the "Child and Parent Introductory Information Form " and the "Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Level Scale for Parents/Caregivers", participants will be shown the educational brochure and granted access to the video training via the QR code included in the brochure.

At the end of the training, the "Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Level Scale for Parents/Caregivers" will be administered again. The brochure used in the training will be distributed to all participants in the intervention group.

Four weeks after the training, participants in the intervention group will be contacted again, and their data will be recollected using the same scale to assess knowledge retention and the long-term effectiveness of the training. Similarly, in the control group, the "Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Level Scale for Parents/Caregivers "will be re-administered four weeks after the initial data collection.

Data Analysis:

The data will be analyzed using the SPSS version 27.0 software.
