dc.description.abstractAim: The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of distance learning, comprising of videos specifically designed for the management of fever in children, on parents' knowledge and practice of fever management. Method: It was a randomized controlled pre/post-test study with 99 parents (mainly mothers, n = 91) of acute febrile children. The intervention group received fever management video training. “Descriptive Survey Form”, “Fever and Fever Management Knowledge Form” and “Parent Fever Management Scale” were used to collect data. Cohen's d and 95% confidence interval were used to evaluate the effect size. The study was registered as NCT05707624 in Clinical Trials, retrospectively. Results: The intervention group's knowledge increased significantly from 52.2% to 65.5% (p = 0.003, d = 0.632) in the post-test. “Parent Fever Management Scale” scores of the intervention group were significantly lower (p < 0.001, d = 0.731) than the control group in the post-test. Conclusion: The video training significantly enhanced parents' understanding of fever management, resulting in an effective reduction of their caregiving burden. Practice implications: Fever management videos can be a valuable tool for parental education, particularly in clinical settings, aiding pediatric nurses in educating parents.
