Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
There are studies in the literature that include parent training for the prevention and care of mucositis. Many national and international organizations have emphasized the responsibility of the nurse in patient education and stated it in the relevant laws and regulations. The regulations focus on the educative role of the nurse for patients. In pediatric oncology clinics where leukaemia treatment and care is provided, the educational role of the nurse is directed towards the child individual and their family, and determining and meeting the educational needs of the whole family is vital in the nursing management of the child with cancer. In this context, this study aims to examine the effect of mucositis care training to caregivers of pediatric patients aged 2 to 18 years, on the development of mucositis and the clinic's "mucosal barrier damage, laboratory-confirmed bloodstream infections".

- Intervention Group
- description
- In the study, in order to prevent/minimize the flow of information between the control and intervention groups, the data of the control group will be collected first. Data collection will be suspended in the clinic for three months after the control group data is completed. After this period, data of the enterprise group will be collected. Participants in the intervention group will be provided with mucositis training within the scope of the Mucositis Care Protocol in line with the MASCC / ISOO 2019 Recommendations.
