NCT ID NCT07647185
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether giving caregivers hands-on practice plus a video to review at home improves their knowledge, skills, and stress levels when caring for a patient with a feeding tube (PEG). About 54 caregivers will be randomly assigned to either the video-enhanced training or standard hospital instruction. Researchers will measure anxiety, knowledge, and practical skills before, right after, and two weeks after training.

- caregiver training with video support
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this training approach could reduce caregiver stress and improve patient safety at home.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage trial with only 54 participants, so results may not apply to all caregivers. The training is educational, not a medical treatment.
