Summary

This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of an artificial intelligence-driven mobile application on nurses' knowledge and attitudes toward atraumatic care for hospitalized children. Participants, who are pediatric nurses, will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group, using the mobile application, or the control group receiving standard education. The primary outcomes are improvements in nurses' knowledge and attitudes, measured after the intervention. The study seeks to determine whether the mobile application enhances nurses' competence in providing atraumatic care compared to usual training methods.

Detailed description

This randomized controlled trial investigates the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence-driven mobile application designed to enhance nurses' knowledge and attitudes toward atraumatic care for hospitalized children. Pediatric nurses working in hospital units will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group, which will use the mobile application, or the control group, which will receive standard education. The intervention aims to provide interactive learning modules, case scenarios, and practical guidelines for atraumatic care. Primary outcomes include improvements in knowledge scores and attitude assessments, measured before and after the intervention. Secondary outcomes include participants' satisfaction with the application and self-reported confidence in providing atraumatic care. The study is expected to provide evidence on the utility of mobile AI-based educational tools in improving nursing competence and patient care in pediatric settings.

Conditions

• Pediatric Nursing Education

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Atraumatic Care Training Program	The intervention consisted of an AI-driven mobile application designed to enhance nurses' knowledge and attitudes toward atraumatic care for hospitalized children. The application included educational modules covering principles, benefits, and purposes of atraumatic care. Each module provided AI-generated content and an interactive chat feature, requiring participants to ask at least three questions before unlocking a module-specific quiz. Participants completed all modules over one week, followed by a final assessment of 25 AI-generated questions covering all modules
BEHAVIORAL	No Intervention / Standard Care	Nurses in this group will continue their routine practice without receiving any additional training, mobile application, or educational program. Participants will provide pediatric care according to standard hospital protocols. This group serves as a comparison to evaluate the effect of the AI-driven mobile application on the experimental group.
