Summary

This trial tests whether a mobile app can improve burn prevention and first aid knowledge among families living in tent cities and container houses after an earthquake. Sixty families will be randomly assigned to either receive standard training plus the app or standard training alone. The study will measure changes in knowledge and track whether burns occur in the two months following the app's use.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Mobile application for burn prevention and first aid education
What this could lead to
If effective, this app could become a low-cost tool to reduce burn injuries and improve first aid responses in disaster-affected communities.
What could go wrong
The trial is small (60 families) and relies on self-reported knowledge and outcomes, so results may not generalize widely. The app's impact on actual burn rates remains uncertain.
