ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how a training program on rational drug use can change the way parents of hospitalized children think about medications. The goal is to help parents understand the best ways to use medicines safely and effectively for their children. The study involves two groups of parents: one group will receive the training, while the other group will not. This project is unique because it focuses specifically on parents whose children are in the hospital, a time when understanding medication is especially important.

To participate in this study, parents need to have a child aged 0-12 who is currently admitted to the pediatric ward and has not received any prior training on how to use medications. Participants should be willing to join the study and should not have any issues that would prevent them from understanding the training, such as being illiterate or having certain disabilities. If you decide to take part, you can expect to learn valuable information that could help you make better decisions about your child's medications during their hospital stay.
