dc.description.abstract | Purpose: In chemotherapy process, the innovative and educational roles of nurses come to the forefront so that children can manage the symptoms they will encounter and thus increase their quality-of-life. Therefore, a tablet game was developed by the authors of this study to evaluate the effect of training children aged 10-16 who receive chemotherapy by a tablet game and a booklet on symptom management and quality-of-life.Methods: This was a non-randomized pre and post-test control group study. The study sample consisted of 50 children (game: 25; booklet: 25) who met the inclusion criteria and hospitalized between February 2017-July 2018 in two hospitals' Paediatric Haematology-Oncology Units. Data collection tools consisted of a child eval-uation form, Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale, KINDL-Cancer Module, a tablet game, and booklet.Results: When groups were evaluated within themselves after the intervention, the decrease of disturbance level of symptoms at the game group was higher than the booklet group (p:.004). Before the intervention, there was not any difference in the quality-of-life mean between groups (p < .05). After the intervention quality-of-life total (p:.000), mental (p:.030), and treatment (p:.009) subscale means were statistically significantly less at game group than booklet group. Conclusions: Both interventions were effective for symptom management, and they were not superior to each other, but the quality-of-life was higher in the game group. | en_US |
