NCT ID NCT07723170
First seen Jul 23, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial compares two digital training methods for perinatal grief counseling among midwives and nurses in Türkiye. One group receives a six-week program through Instagram posts and interactive activities; the other attends live Zoom sessions with discussions and role-play. The study measures changes in competency and confidence in providing bereavement care, aiming to see which approach leads to better learning and skill retention.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- social media-based and online training programs for perinatal grief counseling
- What this could lead to
- If one method proves more effective, it could point toward scalable, accessible training models for healthcare professionals in sensitive areas like grief support.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage educational trial with 72 participants in one country, so results may not generalize widely. The study measures short-term changes in self-reported competency and confidence, not long-term clinical outcomes.
