About

this study is aimed to determine the effects of video-assisted discharge education of day surgery patients on the perception of quality of discharge Study Hypothesis include the following; H1: The day surgery patients who were exposed to the video-assisted discharge educational intervention will have higher perception on quality of discharge teaching, compared with those who were not exposed to the educational intervention.

Full description

The goal of patient education in Daycare surgery is to improve overall patient outcome and satisfaction. Comprehensive patient assessment, putting into consideration patient's needs and expected postoperative difficulties, will help nurses in understanding types of patient education strategies that can be used in order to promote better individualized quality discharge education which in turn leads to the best postoperative outcomes (Quemby& Stocker, 2014; Jaensson, Dahlberg & Nilsson, 2019).

Although there are various studies showing the effects of video assisted patient education, there are only a few clinical studies concentrating on Day care Surgery patients and none in Turkey. Therefore, we will examine the effect of video-assisted teaching in relation to discharge planning, quality of nursing care and overall patient satisfaction in Day Care Surgery patients' group. The result of this study may guide for development of the educational strategies for Day Care Surgery patients.

The study will be conducted in Jinepol Women's Health and IVF clinic in Turkey Jinepol.

The study aims to recruit one hundred and seventy two (172) patients into the program. 86 participants will be selected in each group, using the simple random sampling method from December 2022- December 2023

Study tools:

A descriptive data form, The Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale (QDTS) and Patient Satisfaction with Nursing Care Quality Questionnaire (PSNCQQ) will be used in data collection. The descriptive data form which will provide information about patients' gender, nationality, age, type of surgery, educational level and occupation will be made by the researcher. Ethical approval was obtained from Institutional Reviews Board (IRB) of Near East University Hospital. In addition, informed consent from the patients and organizational permission will be obtained. An institutional permission was obtained from the management of Jinepol Women's Health and IVF Clinic. Since Permission has already been granted by the authors of the Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale and the Patient Satisfaction with Nursing Care Quality Questionnaire (PSNCQQ) to use the scales, no further permission will be required.

Statistical Package of SocialSciences (SPSS) software version 20.0 will be used to analyze the collected data. Descriptive statistics (ie, means, standard deviations, and frequencies and percentages) will be used to calculate for all patient characteristics and response items. A chi-square test and independent T test will be used to determine the hypothesis either null or alternate at a significant level of p < 0.05.

Evaluation of The Quality of Discharge Teaching Scale (QDTS) are as follows; 10: Excellent

8 and 9 = very good

6 and 7 = good

5 = neutral

3 and 4 = fair

1 and 2 = poor

0 = none/not at all

The Mean of content and delivery subscales scores will be calculated separately.

Evaluation of the Patient Satisfaction with Nursing Care Quality Questionnaire (PSNCQQ) are as follow; 5 = Excellent

4 = very good

3 = good

2 = fair

1 = poor.

The Mean and Standard deviation of items will be calculated
