# Osteoporosis Awareness Among Nursing Students

**Official Title:** Effect of Scenario-based Teaching on Osteoporosis Awareness in Nursing Students: a Randomized Controlled Trial

**NCT ID:** [NCT06760780](https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06760780)

## Key Facts

- **Status:** NOT_YET_RECRUITING
- **Phase:** NA
- **Study Type:** INTERVENTIONAL
- **Target Enrollment:** 78
- **Lead Sponsor:** Mersin University
- **Conditions:** Interventional
- **Start Date:** 2025-01
- **Completion Date:** 2025-02
- **CT.gov Last Update:** 2025-01-07

## Brief Summary

The aim of this clinical study is to determine the effect of scenario-based training of nursing students on awareness of osteoporosis.

To this end, the most important questions to be answered in the study are

* What is the level of osteoporosis awareness among nursing students at the start of the study?
* Does scenario-based education have an impact on osteoporosis awareness?

Participants:

All student nurses participating in the study will first receive theoretical training on osteoporosis. At the end of the training, a scenario example prepared by the researchers on the topic of osteoporosis is worked on with the students in the experimental group. No additional intervention is carried out with the control group.

## Detailed Description

In this study, 78 nursing students randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups are first interviewed using the personal information questionnaire and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale. This is followed by a four-hour theoretical lesson prepared by the researchers in accordance with current literature and textbooks on osteoporosis as part of the Joint and Connective Tissue Diseases and Nursing course. At the end of the theoretical lessons, a scenario example prepared by the researchers, again using current literature and case presentations, will be worked on with the students in the experimental group. No other application is made for the control group. The Personal Information Questionnaire and the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale will be re-administered to both groups four weeks after the end of the theoretical lesson.

## Eligibility

- **Minimum age:** 18 Years
- **Sex:** ALL
- **Healthy Volunteers:** Yes

```

* Those who sign the Informed Voluntary Consent Form will be included.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Those under the age of 18,
* Not a 2nd year student at Mersin University Faculty of Nursing,

* Do not want to participate in the research,
* Do not have the cognitive ability to fill out the data collection form,
* Those who do not sign the Informed Consent Form will not be included.
```

## Arms

- **Experimental group: Scenario group** (EXPERIMENTAL) — Theoretical lesson on osteoporosis and a scenario example on osteoporosis will be covered with the experimental group.
- **Other: Control group** (OTHER) — The control group will be given a theoretical lesson on osteoporosis. No additional intervention will be made.

## Interventions

- **Experimental** (OTHER) — The experimental group will first be given a theoretical lesson prepared in line with the current literature on osteoporosis. At the end of the lesson, a prepared scenario example on osteoporosis will be covered.
- **Control** (OTHER) — The control group will only be given a theoretical lesson prepared in line with the current literature on osteoporosis. No other intervention will be made.

## Primary Outcomes

- **Osteoporosis awareness level will be assessed using the Osteoporosis Awareness Scale.** _(time frame: Change from before implementation and 4th week of practice)_ — The Osteoporosis Awareness Scale consists of 31 items and 5 subscales. Responses to scale items are rated on a 4-point Likert-type scale ranging from 1 to 4 (4 = I know very well, 3 = I know, 2 = I know a little, 1 = I don't know at all). The lowest and highest possible scores from the scale are 31 and 124, respectively. The higher the average score obtained from the overall scale, the higher the osteoporosis awareness.
