What this Trial Is About
This research aims to evaluate the effect of a training program on parents' attitudes towards rational drug use, particularly focusing on parents whose children are hospitalized. The study is designed as a randomized controlled trial with experimental and control groups, filling a gap in intervention studies targeting this specific population. It seeks to compare attitude scores towards rational drug use between parents receiving the education and those who do not. Parents in the experimental group will participate in a 30-minute rational drug use education session delivered face-to-face with a PowerPoint presentation and interactive methods to encourage engagement. They will also receive an educational booklet to help retain the information. The control group will not receive any intervention. This setup allows researchers to assess the impact of the education program compared to no additional training. Participants will be parents of children aged 0 to 12 years admitted to the pediatric ward who have not previously received such training. Researchers will measure the parents' attitudes towards rational drug use using a specific attitude scale over a period of up to 10 months. The study will monitor and compare these scores between groups to understand the education program's effect. The total involvement duration and detailed follow-up procedures are planned but not explicitly stated.
