Multimedia Based Information to Parents in a Pediatric Acute Ward: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Health Communication Clinical Trial

Official title:
Multimedia Based Information to Parents in a Pediatric Acute Ward: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to determine whether multimedia based health information presented in a pediatric acute ward to parents of children with breathing difficulties due to lower respiratory tract infections, is more effective than verbal information to reduce the parent's anxiety and to increase satisfaction with nursing care and health information.

Clinical Trial Description

The intervention website www.syktbarn.no is an open Norwegian online resource for parents of small children, and the site contains videos, audio clips, animations, illustrations, pictures and text materials regarding children's illnesses and normal development. In addition, the parents can use an interactive symptom checker that will help them to decide what to do and when to seek medical advice when their child is sick. The uniqueness of the website is the authentic video clips of sick children with common childhood symptoms like breathing difficulties, signs of dehydration, rash, cough and fever. ;
