Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of animation-based mobile application and simulation-based training methods on tracheal aspiration knowledge and skills of patient relatives who care for patients with tracheostomy/tracheotomy. Experimental pre-test-post-test control group study design was planned.


Clinical Trial Description

The study aims to determine the effect of tracheal aspiration training given to caregivers of patients with tracheostomy and tracheotomy. The effects of training given using clinical routine training, animation-based mobile application and simulation-based training methods on the knowledge and skills of caregivers will be evaluated. Experimental pre-test-post-test control group study design was planned. This study will be carried out as a multicenter in Bursa, Turkey.The centers where the study will be conducted are Bursa Uludağ University Health Research and Application Center and Bursa City Hospital. In calculating the sample size, the effect size was determined as 0.4 for 80% power and 5% significance level. In this direction, it is aimed to include 22 patient relatives in each group in order to compare the knowledge and skill levels between the mobile application, simulation training and control groups. A total of 66 patient relatives will be included in the study. The caregivers to be assigned to the groups will be selected using the block randomized method. The plan to be implemented in the research; 1. Pre-Training: "Introductory Characteristics Form" and "Information Evaluation Form" will be filled in for caregivers in all groups. 2. Training: An animation-based mobile application will be installed on the phones of the caregivers assigned to the "mobile application group" and will be introduced and made available to their use by the researcher Yeliz ŞAPULU ALAKAN. Tracheal aspiration training of caregivers assigned to the "simulation training group" will be given to the same standard by researcher Yeliz ŞAPULU ALAKAN. It will be shown in practice on the tracheostomy care simulator. Caregivers assigned to the "control group" will not undergo any training other than routine in-clinic training on tracheostomy aspiration. Caregivers in the all group will also undergo routine training of the clinic 3. After the training: Caregivers in all groups will fill out the "Training Evaluation Form" and "Information Evaluation Form." The video of the caregiver taken during the tracheal aspiration procedure will be evaluated by the researchers using the "Skill Evaluation Form". 4. One month after the training: Caregivers in all groups will fill in the "Information Evaluation Form" and "Result Evaluation Form".The video of the caregiver taken during the tracheal aspiration procedure will be evaluated by the researchers using the "Skill Evaluation Form". ;
