Description

Introduction: Chemotherapy is scientifically demonstrated as an effective
modality for childhood cancers. However, despite its therapeutic effects,
chemotherapy can induce unpleasant side effects. These adverse effects
often cause readmissions and trigger stressful, frightening, and painful
experiences. Family social support has been widely mentioned as a
significant factor affecting childhood cancer survivors’ quality of life.
Therefore, an adequate level of knowledge is needed to achieve the ideal
family support for the children. However, electronic health education is
now considered an excellent alternative to the standard methods. This
study examined the effect of the CERIA e-module application as an
electronic health education media for childhood cancer survivors and their
parents as well as the effectiveness of the CERIA e-module in improving
parents’ knowledge and family support practices for childhood cancer
survivors.
Methods: This research was a quasi-experimental study with a one-group
pre-test and post-test design employing a purposive sampling technique.
Thirty participants from Rumah Singgah Yayasan Peduli Kanker Anak Bali
were recruited for this study. The research phase included a pre-test, an
intervention providing the CERIA e-module 4 times in two weeks, and a
post-test. Data analysis using paired t-test.
Results: Findings from this study showed that CERIA e-Module is effective
in improving parents’ knowledge (p=0.000; p<0.05) and enhancing skills
in delivering adequate care and support for children with cancer (p=0.001;
p<0.05).
Conclusion: Based on the results, the authors suggest that nurses organize
novel and creative education media for families with childhood cancer
survivors to deliver health messages more attractively.
