Clinical Trial Description

This is an experimental, randomized controlled, single-blind study. The study was conducted with the parents of children with CP aged 8-16 years, who went to the rehabilitation centers in a randomized controlled manner between 11 October 2021 and 11 November 2022 to receive education and treatment. The sample consisted of 73 parents, the study group (n=35), and the control group (n=38). Parents in the study groups were given education-support in accordance with their needs in the educational topics specified in the Parent Education-Support Booklet for a Child with Cerebral Palsy. The control group was not trained. Research data were collected using the Child and Parent Information Form, the Needs Determination Form, the Comfort Behaviors Checklist (KDKL), the Parent Form of the Quality of Life Scale for Children (PIDQ) and the Self-Efficacy Scale. The comfort and quality of life of the children in the study group and the self-efficacy of the parents were evaluated before, 1 month and 3 months after the education. The control group's data were collected at the same time as the other groups. Descriptive statistics, Pearson chi-square, Fisher exact chi-square, Student-t, and ANOVA were used in the analysis of the data. ;
