Abstract

Abstract

Background: People are under stress due to population growth and lifestyle changes, which is raising mortality and morbidity rates. Children are more likely to experience these because of their insufficient organ responses and incapacity to deal, particularly in emergency situations. Emergencies include burns, poisoning, falls, injuries, and ingestion of foreign objects in children. Ignorance of paediatric emergency can lead to a number of issues, including fractures, falls, and injuries. Individuals who provide care, particularly mothers with children under five, should be adequately informed about podiatric crises. Thus, the goal of this study is to increase the understanding of specific paediatric emergencies among moms of children under five.

Objectives:

1: Determine mothers of children under five years old's degree of awareness about pediatric crises both before and after the video-assisted teaching program.

1. To assess how well moms of children under five understand specific pediatric emergencies after participating in a video-assisted learning program.


2. To determine the relationship between a subset of demographic characteristics and mothers' pre-test knowledge levels.
