Abstract
GOMEZ-FLORES, Miguel Iván; LANDEROS-OLVERA, Erick and VILLA-RUEDA, Alma Angélica. Effect of a tele-nursing intervention on condom use in adolescents. Index Enferm [online]. 2022, vol.31, n.2, pp.91-95. Epub Nov 21, 2022. ISSN 1699-5988.
Aim:
To determine the preliminary effect of a tele-nursing intervention for the condom use self-efficacy among adolescents through social media and digital platforms during the social lockdown due the pandemic.
Methodology:
Randomized clinical trial, parallel simple blind, with equivalent groups: experimental (EG) and control (CG). Simple randomized sampling. Sample size n=30 teenagers per group. 15 to 19 years old teenagers were included, variables were measured with the Self-efficacy (SE) Scale for the Use of Condom.
Results:
After the intervention, there is a difference in the means and standard deviations in the test vs. re-test of both groups of adolescents, with statistical significance.
Conclusions:
The EG's SE levels increased after the intervention through a web site and social media. Digital apps are feasible for teaching the proper technique for condom use within a social lockdown.
