Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effect of preoperative tele-nursing counseling on anxiety and patient satisfaction in day surgery.
Design: Randomized controlled study design was employed.
Methods: The study was conducted in a city hospital and a university hospital in Istanbul between July 2022 and May 2023 with patients who met the study criteria. The sample consisted of 160 patients in the experimental (n = 80) and control (n = 80) groups. In the first interview, the patients who came to be examined (experimental and control groups) were given the Descriptive Information Form and the Surgery-specific Anxiety Scale. The patients in the experimental group were given a training booklet and counseling with tele-nursing practice the day before the surgery, and the patients in the control group were given routine clinical follow-up and a training booklet. The patients (experimental and control) were given the Surgery-specific Anxiety Scale on the day they came for surgery before they were taken into surgery. After the surgery, the Patient's Perception of Nursing Care Scale was applied to the patients. The patients in the experimental group were also given the Tele-nursing Evaluation Form.
Findings: As a result of the study, the patients in the experimental group who received tele-nursing counseling had lower levels of surgery-specific anxiety than the control group. Patients in the experimental group were statistically significantly more satisfied with nursing care.
Conclusions: Providing preoperative tele-nursing counseling to patients scheduled for day surgery contributed to the reduction of anxiety and worry of the patients and increased the satisfaction of the patients.
