Abstract
This quasi - experimental research aimed to examine effects of an education program via mobile application on self-care behaviors to prevent infection among children with cancer receiving chemotherapy. The sample were pediatric cancer patients aged 7-12 years, who received first chemotherapy treatment. A sample of 12 participants in the control and the experimental groups were selected using purposive sampling according to specified qualification. The research instrument consisted of an education program via mobile application, having a content validity index of 0.92 and a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.95. The procedures were as follows: Day 1 of the treatment, both of the experimental and the control group completed a self-care behavior assessment. The control group received usual care, whereas the experimental group received an education program via mobile application. Day 2 of the treatment included a preparation before receiving chemotherapy and recording self-care behavior. Day 3 - 20 of the treatment were a follow-up of recording self-care behavior of the patients in both groups. Day 21 of the treatment, the patients in both groups completed a self-care behavior assessment. Data were analyzed using percentage, mean, standard deviation, Chi square, and repeated measures ANOVA.
The results revealed that the self-care behavior to prevent infection among pediatric cancer patients receiving chemotherapy of the experimental group had a statistically significant higher average self-care behavior score than the control group (F 10.24, p < .05).
