Official title
The Effect of Diabetes Education Delivered Through Video Animation on Metabolic Control, Self-Care Ability, Perceived Social Support, and Attitudes Toward the Disease in Children With Type 1 Diabetes
Overview
The aim of this study is to evaluate the attitude towards the disease, perceived social support systems, metabolic control and self-care ability of pediatric patients diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, by giving video animation training considering their age and developmental level. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Nursing interventions using video animations increase self-care abilities in children aged 11-18. 2. Nursing interventions using video animations increase the perception of social support in children aged 11-18. 3. Nursing interventions using video animations support metabolic control in children aged 11-18. 4. Nursing interventions using video animations positively affect the attitudes of children aged 11-18 toward their illness.
Detailed description
With the development and proliferation of technology, an essential part of our daily lives, adaptation and developments in technology have begun to increase in the healthcare sector. Research has shown that games and video animations are effective methods beyond medication. No studies have been found in the literature evaluating the effects of diabetes education provided through video animation on the metabolic control, self-care abilities, and attitudes toward the disease in children with Type 1 diabetes. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of video animation education given to children diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes on their attitudes toward the disease, perception of social support, and self-care abilities. It is anticipated that this research will provide a proactive, multifaceted approach to care and treatment. The study was designed as a pretest/posttest randomized controlled trial. The study population consisted of children aged 11-18 who were regularly followed in the outpatient clinic and had been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes for at least 6 months. Children who accepted the study and met the criteria were assigned to the video animation and control groups using a block randomization method. The study sample was determined to be 80 individuals, 40 in the experimental group and 40 in the control group. The video animation scenario to be used in the study was created by the researchers in parallel with the routine diabetes education provided at the hospital, and expert approval was obtained. The video animation scenes were prepared by a voice actor and illustrator as part of the project. The experimental group will receive diabetes education through video animation following the routine diabetes education provided by the hospital. Pre- and post-intervention surveys will be administered. The control group will receive routine diabetes education from the hospital's diabetes nurse. No other intervention will be administered. Pre-tests/post-tests and surveys will be administered before and after the diabetes education.
Interventions
- Other Diabetes education with video animation
