The aim of this project was to determine the effect of the burn prevention and first aid mobile application developed for families living in tent cities and container houses after the earthquake on the burn prevention and first aid knowledge of families and the development of burns in the first two months after the mobile application. The research was planned as a prospective, two-arm (1:1), randomized controlled trial. The study population will consist of families living in tent cities and container houses in Şanlıurfa. As a result of the power analysis performed in the G*Power program, the sample group will consist of 30 families from the tent city and 30 families from the container city, taking into account the losses with a power of 90% and a maximum bidirectional 5% type error. All of the families (30 mobile application-study group; 30 control group) who make up the sample of the research will be given a training (powerpoint presentation) prepared by the researcher in line with the literature, and burn prevention and first aid practices will be explained and their questions will be answered. Then, the training to be given with the mobile application will be downloaded to the phones of the families in the experimental group and the training will continue through the application. In the study, data will be collected with the "Descriptive Characteristics Form", "Information Form on Burn Prevention and First Aid" and "Burn Development Follow-up Form", which include the descriptive information of the families. The data obtained from the study will be analyzed in computer environment.
The aim of this project was to determine the effect of the burn prevention and first aid mobile application developed for families living in tent cities and container houses after the earthquake on the burn prevention and first aid knowledge of families and the development of burns in the first two months after the mobile application.The research was planned as a prospective, two-arm (1:1), randomized controlled trial. This randomized controlled trial will be reported according to CONSORT guidelines. The research population will consist of families living in tent cities and container houses in Şanlıurfa. As a result of the power analysis performed in the G*Power program, the sample group will consist of 30 families from the tent city and 30 families from the container city, taking into account the losses with a power of 90% and a maximum bidirectional 5% type error.

Then, the training to be given with the mobile application will be downloaded to the phones of the families in the experimental group and the training will continue through the application. Thus, families will be able to access the training from the mobile application at any time after the training. The primary results of the research are the effect of the mobile application on burn prevention and first aid knowledge. The secondary outcome of the study is the effect of the mobile application on the development of burns in the first two months after the mobile application. In the study, data will be collected with the "Descriptive Characteristics Form", "Information Form on Burn Prevention and First Aid" and "Burn Development Follow-up Form", which include the descriptive information of the families. The data obtained from the study will be analyzed in computer environment.

| Mobile application | Other | Mobile application: The content of the mobile application that can be used continuously after the presentation in the education of families will consist of three parts. In the first section: There will be short information notes and visuals on burn diagnosis and types. Second part: Frequently seen burns as a result of home accidents will be introduced and the precautions to be taken will be included through visuals. Third Section: First aid applications specific to each type of burn (scalding, fire-flame, hot contact, electrical, chemical) will be presented with visuals and information notes. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Burn prevention | Information Form on Burn Prevention and First Aid: Questions prepared by the researchers inquiring information about the training (first aid in burns, risky situations for burns, precautions to be taken, etc.). | 6 months |
| First aid knowledge | Information Form on Burn Prevention and First Aid: Questions prepared by the researchers inquiring information about the training (first aid in burns, risky situations for burns, precautions to be taken, etc.). | 6 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Burn development status | Burn Development Monitoring Form: It is a form that inquires whether burns developed within the first two months after the mobile application, and in case of development, the status of being affected by the burn and the first aid applications made. | 2 months |

A co-researcher in the project will sort the families alphabetically according to their surnames. The same co-researcher will write the number opposite each family in the list of families. An independent biostatistician, who is not involved in the study, and 30 families for each group will be determined from these numbers. Families living in container houses and tent cities were assigned to group A (control group) and group B (experimental group) by drawing lots. As a result of the draw of lots, group A will form the control group and group B will form the study group where the mobile application will be used. The data obtained from the research will be transferred to the computer environment by the other co-researcher who does not know which of the study and control groups are A and B groups. A biostatistician independent of the research will analyze the data and report the findings without knowing which of the A and B groups is the study group and which is the control group.
