The research was designed as a randomized controlled study to determine the effectiveness of a modular cloud-based training platform in increasing awareness of fertility preservation.
The study aims to develop a free, modular, cloud-based, sustainable digital platform to increase fertility awareness. The platform will provide basic information on fertility preservation methods in plain language to support informed decisions. Content will be based on ESHRE, FIGO, and ASCO guidelines. The study targets not only cancer patients but also women requesting fertility preservation for medical or social reasons.
In the first stage, the platform will be designed with the ADDIE model, and content created per international guidelines. In the second stage, the prototype will be pilot-tested and revised. In the third stage, effectiveness will be tested through a randomized controlled trial. Educational modules will be provided to the intervention group, while the control group will receive brochures. The study will include women aged 18-45 with early-stage gynecological cancer (cervix, ovary, tube, endometrium) at Prof. Dr. Cemil Tascioglu City Hospital, untreated. Participants must have Turkish literacy and internet access. Sample size, calculated with G\*Power, is 140 total (70 per group).
