Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based educational program on mothers' fever management practices and anxiety related to fever in children. Fever is a common symptom in pediatric patients, especially under the age of three, causing repeated health concerns for parents. Despite the prevalence of fever, parents often engage in inappropriate fever management practices, which may lead to unnecessary anxiety and improper care. The study was conducted as a pretest-posttest experimental design including 80 mothers of children who presented to the Pediatric Emergency Unit at Erciyes University, Fevzi Mercan-Mustafa Eraslan Children's Hospital. Participants were assigned to either an intervention group receiving AI-supported fever management education or a control group receiving standard care. Data were collected using validated scales to assess parental fever management practices and anxiety levels before and after the intervention. The educational material was developed using ChatGPT 4.0, a large language model AI platform, and reviewed by pediatric experts. The results of this study may improve fever management education and reduce anxiety among mothers, potentially leading to better health outcomes for children.
