NCT ID: NCT06273618 Not yet recruiting - Knowledge Clinical Trials

iLookOut Micro-learning to Improve Knowledge Retention

Start date: April 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This project investigates whether a multi-faceted strategy involving iLookOut's evidence-based Core Training plus an innovative follow-up Micro-Learning can promote knowledge retention and change behavior among early childhood professionals (ECPs) with regard to child abuse and its reporting. Additionally, this study will evaluate if non-ECPs experience similar improvements and retention of knowledge and changes in behavior as do ECPs.

NCT ID: NCT06231485 Recruiting - Behavior Clinical Trials

Socialization To Enrich Participation & Support Sexuality for Young People With I/DD

STEPS2
Start date: October 20, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of a 6-week socialization and sex education curriculum (STEPS2) in young people (aged 16-27 years) with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), including people with Down syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the STEPS2 health education curriculum increase the proportion of individuals who: 1. have had a discussion with a medical professional about their sexual health (including sexually transmitted infection testing for those who are sexually active); 2. know whether they have had the HPV vaccination; 3. have had the HPV vaccination; 4. know what sex is; and 5. know how people get pregnant. These are the primary outcomes which are being measured one year after study enrollment. Secondary outcomes include knowledge around sexual health and behaviors around contraception and STI prevention among those sexually active at baseline, as well as satisfaction with the intervention. Participants are randomized to receive either the socialization and sex education curriculum in the experimental group, called the STEPS2 curriculum, or a nutrition and physical exercise curriculum in the comparison group, called Steps To Your Health (STYH). Participants in the STEPS2 experimental group meet with a health educator in one-on-one individually tailored sessions virtually once a week for one hour for 6 weeks. Participants in the STYH comparison group meet with a health educator in small group sessions of 6-10 participants virtually once a week for one hour for 6 weeks. Researchers will compare sexual and reproductive health knowledge and behaviors one year after study enrollment to see if the STEPS2 curriculum is effective at increasing knowledge and healthy behaviors.

NCT ID: NCT06000878 Completed - Self-efficacy Clinical Trials

Evaluate the Effectiveness of First Aid E-book Intervention Among New Nurses

Start date: July 19, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Background: First aid skills are clinical performance ability requiring a higher level of skills for new nurses. At present, the focus of first aid-related teaching materials and methods remain on books and physical courses. E-books have not yet been applied to first aid skills training for new nurses despite their advantage of making reading, learning, and reviewing available at any time. Objective: To assess the effect of receiving interactive first aid e-book interventions on new nurses in a medical center in southern Taiwan in respect of first aid knowledge, self-efficacy, and first aid skills. Methods: A two-group three-time repeated measures experimental design was adopted. 70 qualified new nurses were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group, each composed of 35 nurses. The experimental group received a one-hour e-book course plus one month of first aid e-book intervention and regular training, whereas the control group only received one month of regular training. Performance indicators included administering the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) on first aid skills, and questionnaires for knowledge and self-efficacy related to first aid skills. The experimental group received qualitative interviews and filled out the system usability scale one month after the intervention. Data were analyzed using the independent samples t-test, chi-squared test, paired samples t-test, and generalized estimating equations (GEE).

NCT ID: NCT05968872 Completed - Attitude Clinical Trials

Assessing Knowledge & Attitude of Health Professionals Towards Anesthesia and the Anesthetist's Role.

Start date: May 1, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Misconceptions about anesthesia and anesthetists in the health professional community may limit anesthetists' participation in their roles. These misconceptions affect the morals of anesthetists since their activity will be limited only to operation theater and the community at large, who did not get the desired care. Improving health professionals' awareness of anesthesia will make it easier for anesthetists to practice their full role and to develop a sense of validation by having their importance acknowledged. Moreover, society will gate the care offered by the anesthetist in different places of medical care.

NCT ID: NCT05570500 Completed - Knowledge Clinical Trials

Comparing the Effect of Online and Conventional Oral Health Education in Egypt

Start date: December 12, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to compare the results of online oral health education and conventional oral health education methods in terms of their effectiveness towards improving the knowledge and practice of oral hygiene in primary school children in Egypt. This study is done in two schools in Egypt, in 3rd and 4th grade respectfully. The classrooms in each grade will be randomly assigned to each of the two groups (online and conventional oral health education). A questionnaire that assesses knowledge and attitude towards self oral care will be administered by the primary investigator before and after the oral health education sessions. The pre and post questionnaires will be compared in terms of results to evaluate the effectiveness of both methods.

NCT ID: NCT05265689 Recruiting - Self Efficacy Clinical Trials

Study to Improve Adolescent Bicycling Safety

Start date: May 27, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This cluster randomized controlled trial will evaluate a community-based bicycle safety education program with and without an in-person parent training component. The investigators will recruit 180 early adolescent bicyclists (ages 9 to 12) and a parent/guardian from local neighborhood centers after school and summer programs, where the investigators have conducted preliminary studies. Randomization into the three study groups will occur at the site-level. Adolescent bicycles in all study group sites will be equipped with Pedal Portal, an innovative bicycle-mounted GPS/video system developed by the research team to objectively observe bicycling risk exposure and behaviors while bicycling. System data will be coded to measure bicycling exposure (hours, miles traveled, routes) and the types and rates of safety-relevant events (near crashes, crashes), and safety-relevant behaviors (e.g., following traffic rules, scanning for traffic at intersections). This will be the first randomized trial to use GPS and video technology to evaluate the effectiveness of a youth bicycle safety intervention in changing behavior. The control group will not receive any bicycle safety education programming. Participants in the first intervention group (Bike Club) will receive a 12-hour bicycle safety education program. Participants in the second intervention group (Bike Club Plus) will receive an enhanced version of the 12-hour bicycle safety education program which will include a parent training session on bicycling safety best practices, child development as it relates to bicycling, strategies for practice at home, and feedback on their adolescent's bicycling performance. The investigators' main hypotheses are that adolescents who receive the bicycle safety intervention will have increased safety behaviors (e.g., helmet use, hazard recognition), reduced errors (e.g., riding against traffic, swerving/wobbling), and increased knowledge, perceptions, and self-efficacy compared to the control group; and adolescents whose parent receives the parent training will have even greater improvements in study outcomes than those whose parents do not receive the training. If successful, approaches from this study could be widely implemented to improve adolescent bicycling safety.

NCT ID: NCT05255627 Completed - Satisfaction Clinical Trials

Mobile Application Effectiveness in Pressure Injury Care

Start date: March 15, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The research was designed in a randomized controlled experimental type in order to determine the effect of mobile application on students' knowledge levels and satisfaction levels about the prevention, treatment and care of pressure injuries. The population of the study conducted in the fall semester of the 2020-2021 academic year consisted of students enrolled in the Basic Principles and Practices in Nursing course at a foundation university in Istanbul between March and June 2021 (N=78). The sample size was calculated with G power 3.1.9.4, based on similar studies, and it was calculated that at least 28 people should be included in each group, with the pre-acceptance of α error being 5%, research power (power) 80%, and an effect value of 0.77. Research data were collected using the "Structured Description Form", "Modified Pieper Pressure Wound Knowledge Test" and "Satisfaction Scale".

NCT ID: NCT05114187 Completed - Dementia Clinical Trials

An Internet-Based Education Program for Care Partners of People Living With Dementia

Start date: September 6, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

With the aging population, the prevalence of dementia is increasing dramatically. People living with dementia are highly dependent on family care partners, who may have little knowledge of the disorder. National and provincial guidelines have all highlighted the importance of online resources to improve care partner education; however, very few have been widely implemented or rigorously studied. The investigators have developed the award-winning dementia education platform to complement traditional patient and family educational approaches. It allows free access to multimedia e-learning lessons, live expert webinars, and email-based content that care partners can access any time, anywhere. In a pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT), the investigators propose to study 1) the feasibility and care partner acceptance of the intervention and some of the study methods, and 2) the impact of the intervention on care partner self-efficacy, knowledge, and sense of burden. This initiative has the potential to improve the quality, cost effectiveness, and efficiency of dementia care. The intervention could be easily scaled and spread both provincially and nationally to complement other dementia education methods, at a time when the prevalence of dementia is increasing and access to high quality internet-based interventions is essential.

NCT ID: NCT05032443 Completed - Nurse's Role Clinical Trials

Anesthesia Awareness in Pediatric Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Nurses

Start date: August 23, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

Background and Aim: Pediatric gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is an increasingly common procedure performed to investigate and diagnose problems in the GI tract in children. Procedures in pediatric endoscopy units are routinely performed under sedation and general anesthesia, unlike adult endoscopy. Nurses working in pediatric gastroenoscopy units where sedoanalgesia is applied have important duties and responsibilities in terms of quality standards in preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative periods. Considering the increasing need for high-quality pediatric endoscopy applications, the attitudes and behaviors of nurses about sedation in pediatric patients are important as a member of the team. There is almost no literature on the experience and awareness of pediatric endoscopy nurses in clinical practice, and this encourages our team to conduct a survey across our country and to develop knowledge and clinical practices. With this questionnaire survey, it was aimed to evaluate the experience and attitudes of the endoscopy nurses working in the pediatric endoscopy unit in our country on sedation/general anesthesia management for pediatric patients

NCT ID: NCT04728243 Completed - Knowledge Clinical Trials

WHO QualityRights E-training in Ghana

Start date: August 11, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a cluster randomized controlled trial to determine the efficacy of the WHO QR online training compared with a placebo intervention in improving the knowledge about human rights, the attitudes towards people with psychosocial disabilities, and the practices related to substitute-decision making and coercion among mental health professionals. Given the impact human rights violations have on the health of persons with psychosocial disabilities, an effort is needed to carry out methodologically strong research in this area. The study proposed will provide robust evidence to support further investment in interventions such as the WHO QualityRights training and make steps forward promoting the rights of people with psychosocial disabilities.
