研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a Health Belief Model (HBM)-based education program to increase daily water consumption among elderly individuals aged 65 and above. Participants will be divided into two groups; one group will receive HBM-based education, and the other group will not receive any education. The effects of the education program on daily water consumption and dehydration symptoms will be assessed.
详细描述
The study has a randomized controlled design and will last 1 month. The study group will be given a Health Belief Model (HBM)-based training program for 1 month, and the same training will be given again after 2 weeks to reinforce the training, while the control group will not receive any training. Participants; Daily water consumption will be collected and dehydration symptoms will be evaluated at baseline and at the end of 1 month, and differences between groups will be analyzed.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in Average Daily Water Intake (liters)
时间窗: Data collection at baseline, 24-hour intervals, and daily data collection until the end of 30 days
In order to determine the effect of providing health belief model education on the level of water consumption; The daily water consumption amount is determined before training. After the training, they are asked to record the amount of water they will consume daily for 30 days on the record chart. Then, the amount of water consumed at 3-day intervals is called and recorded by the patient. The amount of change in daily water consumption at the end of 30 days will determine the effect level of the training.
次要结局
- Change in Hydration Status (urine specific gravity)(At baseline, after 15 days, and on day 30)
