The aim of this study was to examine the medical student knowledge regarding pediatric palliative care (PPC) and determine the predictors of knowledge among them toward PPC.
A cross-sectional engaging study was directed with 326 medical students studying in Jordanian universities. A campaign utilizing online social media and Web-based software were executed to promote, enlist, overview undergraduate medical students, and gather information for this study. The authors employed four techniques to select undergraduate medical students on paid-promoted Facebook, personal messages, and postings in clinical forums.
The results of this study showed that medical students have inadequate knowledge about pediatric palliative care in Jordan. The only factors that predict the knowledge toward PPC is gender.
it should build the medical students' information on pediatric palliative care. The pointer was not significant in the multivariate studies, and that vicariate studies indicated no distinction in the overall scores on either test among the nonmedical students, Training projects ought to be established and delivered to pediatric medical students to improve their knowledge about pediatric palliative/palliative consideration.
本研究旨在调查医学生对儿童姑息治疗（PPC）的了解情况，并确定他们对PPC知识的预测因素。
对约旦大学的326名医学生进行了一项横断面参与性研究。开展了一项利用在线社交媒体和基于网络的软件的活动，以宣传、招募、调查本科医学生，并为本研究收集信息。作者采用了四种方法在付费推广的脸书、私信和临床论坛帖子上选择本科医学生。
本研究结果表明，约旦的医学生对儿童姑息治疗的了解不足。预测对PPC知识的唯一因素是性别。
应增强医学生关于儿童姑息治疗的信息。该指标在多变量研究中不显著，双变量研究表明非医学生在两项测试的总体分数上没有差异，应该为儿科医学生建立并开展培训项目，以提高他们对儿童姑息/姑息关怀的认识。
