About

In the literature, it is seen that the discharge education given to patients with diabetes is especially focused on the effects of blood glucose control and self-efficacy, and there is no study examining the effects of discharge education on diabetes empowerment with a more general perspective in diabetes patients in surgical processes. In this context, the study was designed to examine the effects of diabetes-based personalised discharge education given to surgical patients on satisfaction and diabetes empowerment.

Full description

he population of the study consists of patients diagnosed with diabetes and undergoing surgery in the Surgical and Mixed service of Izzet Baysal Training and Research Hospital. The sample number of the experimental study, which was planned to be carried out between January 2025 and December 2026, was planned to include 100 patients with 0.05 error, 0.95 confidence interval and 0.85 power in the calculation made in the Gpower statistical programme based on previous studies. Considering that patients could leave the study for other reasons, it was decided to carry out the study by randomisation with 110 patients, which is 10% more.

Discharge Training Satisfaction Scale for Surgical Patients: It is a scale developed to measure the satisfaction of surgical patients with discharge training. It consists of 21 items in a five-point Likert structure and has been evaluated as a valid and reliable tool for measuring patient satisfaction. The scale covers factors such as discharge process, personal information, home care, infection monitoring and controls. The Cronbach α reliability coefficient was found to be 0.91, indicating that the scale is highly reliable Diabetes Empowerment Scale: It is a 5-point Likert-type scale consisting of 8 items. Turkish validity and reliability was carried out by Jahanpeyma et al. in 2020

Personalised Discharge training

Experimental group

Description:

In addition to the discharge training given according to the standard surgery, Personalised Discharge training will be given with a holistic patient perspective for diabetes.
