Abstract

Background:: Second-degree burn represents an extremely stressful experience for both the burned children as well as their mothers, second-degree burns profoundly affect the mother's status which can have several negative implications including increased stress and anxiety among mothers having children with 2nd-degree burns. Aim: To evaluate the impact of psych-educational awareness programs on emotional status among mothers having children with second-degree burns. Design: A quasi-experimental research design was used to accomplish this study. Setting: This study was applied to the Pediatric Burns Unit at Sohag University Hospital, Egypt. Sample: - A convenient sample of all 100 mothers having children with second-degree burns was included within six months. Tools: Three tools were utilized: Tool I: Mothers' knowledge regarding 2nd-degree burn, Tool II: Mothers' practice regarding second-degree burn, and Tool III: Future anxiety scale. Results: Mothers scored higher on knowledge and practical knowledge, according to the study's findings post-psych-educational awareness program intervention compared to pre-intervention regarding second-degree burn. There was a decrease in the studied mothers' anxiety levels post the psych-educational awareness program intervention. There was a positive correlation between mothers' total knowledge, practical knowledge, and anxiety scores at the 0.01 level of significance regarding second-degree burn post-intervention. Conclusion: The study concluded that psych-educational awareness program intervention regarding second-degree burns improves mothers' knowledge, practice, and anxiety levels favorably. Recommendations: Psychological adjustment must be supported and assisted by offering mothers a well-thought-out health education program that will enhance their knowledge of second-degree burns and reinforce potential interventions.
