NCT07365189
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test whether the online Video-feedback Intervention to Promote Positive Parenting and Sensitive Discipline (VIPP-SD) can reduce parental burnout and improve parenting practices, in mothers of young children in Chile. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the online VIPP-SD increase maternal sensitivity and the use of consistent but gentle limit setting? * Does it reduce parental burnout? * Does it improve parental stress and child attachment security and reduce child conduct problems? Researchers will compare families who receive the online VIPP-SD to families in a waitlist control group with dummy treatment to see if VIPP-SD has benefits for parents and children. Participants will be mothers of children aged 11-16 months at the start of the study who report elevated levels of parental burnout. Mothers in the intervention group will: * Take part in 12 weekly online sessions with a trained intervener * Receive video-feedback on their own interactions with their child * Learn strategies to respond sensitively to their child's needs and to use positive discipline The study will also measure potential moderators such as maternal mental health, child temperament, and family sociodemographic factors.
NCT05109988
The World Health Organization advocates for breastfeeding as the best source of food for optimal infant development, which reduces the risk of infant mortality and morbidity. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the effect of a father-involvement breastfeeding telephone support intervention on prevalence and duration of exclusive breastfeeding, postnatal depression and parent-infant bonding. The intervention consists of four weekly 20-30 minutes telephone-administered counselling sessions on breastfeeding, delivered individually in the first month postpartum for mothers and fathers. We expect that women who receive the intervention will have a higher rate and longer duration of exclusive breastfeeding, fewer depressive symptoms and better parent-child relationship. The knowledge gained from this study can provide direction for the development of flexible, accessible and culturally sensitive interventions to promote breastfeeding and mental health in Chinese society.

NCT07066007
Purpose: Accidents/injuries seen in children aged 0-6 in developed and developing countries are among the leading preventable health problems and are among the leading causes of death and disability. In the event of an accident/injury, many children can be saved and/or complications can be prevented with correct first aid knowledge and practices until the health team arrives. Therefore, parents are the first to have first aid knowledge and skills, and first aid training given to parents is very important so that they can provide correct first aid intervention in the event of an accident/injury. In this way, it will be possible to increase parents' awareness and self-efficacy, and mortality and morbidity rates after accidents/injuries in children can be reduced. It is important for pediatric nurses, who are important members of preventive health services, to create educational content according to the target audience and to provide first aid training to parents accordingly. In this context, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the first aid training program given to parents of 0-6 year old children, to improve parents' first aid application skills and to increase their first aid self-efficacy levels. Scope and Objectives: In this project covering parents of 0-6 year old children; it is aimed to increase parents' first aid knowledge level, application skills and first aid self-efficacy. Method: This study is planned as a randomized controlled experimental study. Parents of 0-6 year old children registered in Çorum Province Family Health Centers and nurseries and kindergartens affiliated with the Ministry of Family and Social Policies will be included in the study group. The parents participating in the study will be randomized into intervention and control groups. Parents will be divided into strata according to their level of education and the ages of their children, and stratification will be carried out after the pre-test of the study is applied. Parents will not be informed whether they are in the intervention or control group. The intervention group will be trained with the "First Aid Training Booklet for Parents of 0-6 Year Old Children" developed by the researchers. After the training, a post-test will be applied to the intervention and control groups. The research data will be collected using the "Introductory Information Form", "First Aid Knowledge Evaluation Form", "First Aid Application Skill Evaluation Form" and "First Aid-Self-Efficacy Scale" through face-to-face interviews. Expected Results: The training program prepared for parents of children aged 0-6; * It can be used in all scientific studies such as research, thesis, and projects planned to be conducted in the field, * It can be used as a resource if "first aid" courses are added to the postgraduate education curricula of "Pediatric Nursing", "Public Health Nursing", "Surgical Diseases Nursing", which are frequently in contact with children of this age, * It can form the basis for projects planned within the scope of "training of trainers" for students receiving postgraduate education in the fields of "Pediatric Nursing", "Public Health Nursing", "Surgical Diseases Nursing", * Proper and effective first aid applications allow children to continue their lives in a healthy way by providing timely intervention. It is thought that the health of children, who are the future of societies, will contribute to the reduction of the frequency of applications for treatment and care services at health institutions and, in this respect, the effective use of economic resources allocated by governments to health.
