About this study

Official title: PechaKucha Versus PowerPoint in Nursing Education: A Quasi-Experimental Study

This study compared the effects of PechaKucha and traditional PowerPoint presentation techniques used for Parkinson's disease education on nurses' knowledge and awareness levels. The study used a two-group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design. A total of 72 nurses were assigned to the PechaKucha intervention group (n=36) or the PowerPoint control group (n=36) using 1:1 block randomization. Both groups received Parkinson's disease education with identical educational content and learning objectives. The PechaKucha presentation consisted of 20 slides automatically advancing every 20 seconds, whereas the PowerPoint presentation was delivered using a conventional flexible-paced format. Parkinson's disease knowledge and awareness were assessed before and immediately after the educational intervention. The study aimed to determine whether the presentation technique influenced nurses' knowledge and awareness following Parkinson's disease education.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PechaKucha-Based Parkinson's Disease EducationOther

    Participants received Parkinson's disease education using the PechaKucha presentation technique. The presentation consisted of 20 slides that automatically advanced every 20 seconds, resulting in a total presentation duration of 6 minutes and 40 seconds.

  • PowerPoint-Based Parkinson's Disease EducationOther

    Participants received Parkinson's disease education using a traditional PowerPoint presentation. The presentation consisted of 23 slides, was delivered with flexible pacing, and lasted approximately 30-35 minutes. The educational content and learning objectives were identical to those used in the PechaKucha group.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Parkinson's Disease Knowledge Score

    Parkinson's disease knowledge was assessed using the 20-item Parkinson's Disease Knowledge Test. Each correct answer was scored as 1 and each incorrect answer as 0, yielding a total score ranging from 0 to 20. Higher scores indicate greater knowledge of Parkinson's disease. Change in knowledge was evaluated by comparing pre-intervention and immediate post-intervention scores.

    Measured: Baseline and immediately after the educational intervention

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Parkinson's Disease Awareness Score

    Parkinson's disease awareness was assessed using the 17-item Awareness Assessment Form. Items were rated on a 5-point Likert scale, yielding a total score ranging from 17 to 85. Higher scores indicate greater awareness of Parkinson's disease. Change in awareness was evaluated by comparing pre-intervention and immediate post-intervention scores.

    Measured: Baseline and immediately after the educational intervention

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Parkinson's Disease Knowledge Score (time frame: Baseline and immediately after the educational intervention). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
