About

Bening's Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH), which is closely related to aging, is one of the most common diseases in the world. Although it is not a life-threatening condition, lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are seen in many patients, which disrupts their daily activities, sleep patterns, and quality of life of the patients. Examination of changes in sleep and quality of life after transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR-P) in patients with LUTS due to BPH and planning training according to their needs will positively affect the lives of these patients. It is very important for nurses to provide individual training and counseling by making use of innovative technology to ensure that patients manage the surgical process in a healthy way and cope with possible complications. This thesis study was planned as a three-group randomized controlled experimental study in order to determine the effect of e-mobile training and counseling on quality of life and sleep in patients who underwent TUR-P to manage the operative process and cope with possible complications.
