Brief Summary

It is known that caregivers of patients at high risk of developing pressure injury (PBI) have important responsibilities and education to be given to caregivers is necessary for the prevention of PBI. This study was planned to determine the effect of video-assisted training to be given to caregivers of patients at high risk of developing BP on caregivers' knowledge level, attitudes, behaviors and reactions towards caregiving. The research will be conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study in Gaziantep City Hospital inpatient units between 15.09.2023-15.09.2025. A total of 270 patients will be included in the study, with 90 patients assigned to each of the video training group, standard training group and control group. Criterion sampling method will be used to assign the participants to the experimental and control groups, and those with medium and high Braden Pressure Ulcer Risk Assessment Scale scores will be determined and randomly assigned to the groups. Sociodemographic Characteristics Form, Braden Pressure Ulcer Risk Assessment Scale, Family Caregivers' Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Assessment Tool for Pressure Injury Prevention and Caregiver Reaction Assessment Scale will be used for data collection. Data will be collected by face-to-face interviews in inpatient units after randomization. Participants in the video training group will be shown training videos on prevention of SCI, while the standard training group will receive a verbal training and the control group will follow routine clinical protocols. They will be asked to watch the video trainings at least three times in any time and environment they want for four weeks and their weekly feedback will be collected. Final measurements of all participants will be made at the end of the fourth week. In the statistical analysis of the data, descriptive statistics, t test, ANOVA, ANCOVA, Mann Withney U, Kruskall Wallis H test and Wilcoxon signed-rank test will be used according to normal distribution.

Study Arms (3)

video training group

EXPERIMENTAL

Caregiving knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and caregiving reactions will be measured in the pre-test. Then, the participants will be given training cards containing the QR codes of the videos previously created by the researcher, they will be asked to watch them at least three times at any time and environment they want for four weeks, and weekly feedback will be received. As a post-test, knowledge level, attitude, behavior and caregiving reactions will be measured at the end of the fourth week.

Behavioral: video training group

standard education group

EXPERIMENTAL

Caregiving knowledge, attitudes, behaviors and caregiving reactions will be measured in the pre-test. Afterwards, a verbal training will be given for twenty minutes using the training booklet prepared by the researcher in advance for the prevention of caregiving. As a post-test, knowledge, attitude, behavior and caregiving reactions will be measured face-to-face at the end of the fourth week.

Behavioral: video training group

control group

NO INTERVENTION

The control group will not receive any training and measurements will be made simultaneously with the experimental groups. In the pre-test, caregiving knowledge level, attitude, behavior and caregiving reactions will be measured. As a post-test, knowledge level, attitude, behavior and caregiving reactions will be measured face to face at the end of the fourth week.

Interventions

video training group BEHAVIORAL

Creation of the Education Booklet While creating the education booklet that includes the definition of BY, the areas where it frequently develops, risk factors, classification, prevention and situations where it requires professional support, it will be created by the researcher by scanning the current literature and taking the opinions of the Faculty Members from the Nursing Fundamentals field in terms of scope, comprehensibility and scientific content. Creation of Videos The videos will be prepared in five separate videos that will include the definition of BY, the areas where it frequently develops, risk factors, classification, prevention and situations where it requires professional support in line with the education booklet. QR codes of the prepared videos will be created. Each video will be planned to be 5-10 minutes. The videos will be checked by the Advisor Faculty Member and corrections will be made in line with his/her suggestions.
