Clinical Trial Summary

This study is designed to compare the knowledge, satisfaction and self-esteem of kidney transplanted adolescents measured through questionnaires between two groups: patients undergoing conventional treatment with no other intervention versus patients undergoing conventional treatment and receiving additional educational and consultative actions using a closed facebook group.

Description:

Based on literature, there are strong evidences that the use of social media improves the outcomes of chronic treatments. Currently, there is no study using social media as an education tool in kidney transplant patients in Brazil. This study is designed to answer the question: "Does the use of a popular social media such as facebook improves the knowledge, satisfaction and self-steem levels among kidney transplant adolescents when compared with their peers ?" This is a non-blinded randomized clinical trial. Patients will be randomly included into one of the two groups: the control group who will not receive any intervention or the facebook group (who will receive additional educational and consultative support through a closed facebook group) After three months, knowledge level, satisfaction level and self-esteem will be assessed by specific designed questionnaires and by the application of the Rosenberg's self-esteem scale. The study will have a sample of 122 subjects, equally divided (61 participants in each group). Collected data will be compared using the chi square test.
