An educational video based on current European and British best practice guidelines was produced and shown to parents/caregivers waiting in the Pediatric Outpatients Department after a previously validated pre-intervention questionnaire was completed. A post intervention questionnaire was completed following the video. Questionnaires assessed demographics, previous experience and included scenarios to test parental knowledge.
112 parents/caregivers (81.3% female (n = 91), 18.8% male (n = 21)) were questioned. Baseline knowledge was found to be poor overall, however this significantly improved with a simple educational video (pre-score 31.9%, post-test mean score knowledge 92.1%). Pre- and post-test scores showed a statistical significance (x2 = 71.117, P < 0.001, 95% CI).No other variables analysed were shown to be statistically significant predictors of pre- or post-test scores (all p > 0.05).
The study found poor parental knowledge of burns first aid in Ireland and shows the use of an educational video was effective in raising knowledge levels.
制作了基于当前欧洲和英国最佳实践指南的教育视频,并在完成先前验证的干预前问卷后,向在儿科门诊部等待的父母/护理人员展示。视频结束后完成了干预后问卷。问卷调查评估人口统计数据,以前的经验和包含的场景来测试父母的知识。
112名父母/照顾者(81.3%为女性(n=91),18.8%的男性(n=21)受到质疑。发现基线知识总体上较差,然而,通过一个简单的教育视频(预评分31.9%,测试后平均得分知识92.1%)。测试前后得分具有统计学意义(x2=71.117,P<0.001,95%CI)。没有分析的其他变量显示为测试前或测试后评分的统计学显著预测因子(所有P>0.05)。
该研究发现,爱尔兰父母对烧伤急救的了解不足,并显示使用教育视频可以有效提高知识水平。
