Abstract

              This research aims to; 1) to survey the needs for infographic media set in conjunction with the use of simulation technique in order to demonstrate the correct method of using cerumenolytic agents in young children, 2) to evaluate the quality of using the infographic media set in conjunction with the use of simulation technique in order to demonstrate the correct method of using cerumenolytic agents in young children, 3) to compare the results of learning between parents of young patients who studied the infographic media set in conjunction with the use of simulation technique and those who studied by using the conventional method, 4) to assess satisfaction level of using the infographic media set in conjunction with the use of simulation technique in order to demonstrate the correct method of using cerumenolytic agents in young children. Population in this research was 919 parents of young patients who received treatments for cerumen impaction at Ear, Nose, and Throat clinic of Siriraj hospital. The experiment comprised of 2 phases which were; phase 1) 1 group of 250 parents for which the number was calculated by using the estimation of population proportion formula, phase 2) 40 of the parents who were randomly selected. This group of parents was further divided into 2 subgroups - experimental group (those who used the infographic media set in conjunction with the use of simulation technique), and controlled group (those who learned by using the conventional method). Each of these subgroups had 20 members.                According to the results, 1) parents of the young patients who visited the ENT clinic of Siriraj hospital reported the need of using the infographic media set in conjunction with the use of simulation technique that demonstrate the correct method of using cerumenolytic agents in young children. 2) qualitative assessments of the media, contents, and the learning method by using the simulation technique were conducted by 3 experts who concluded that the media, contents, and learning method were of very good quality. 3) the results revealed that post learning scores of the experimental and controlled groups were higher at statistically significant level of 0.5. Upon comparing post-learning scores between the experimental and controlled groups, the results showed that the experimental group attained higher scores at statistically significant level of 0.5.  4) satisfaction assessments revealed that parents were generally highly satisfied.
