About
The aim of this randomized controlled study, which includes pre-test and post-test, is to examine the perineum care education given to caregivers of patients with incontinence and being treated in a palliative care clinic.
The basic question it aims to answer is:
Does the perineum care training given to the relatives of patients treated in the palliative care clinic have an effect on the level of knowledge about perineum care?
Participants will participate in a training activity on perineum care. Researchers will compare whether perineum care training given to relatives of palliative care patients is effective compared to the routine service operation, by using lecture, question-answer and presentation method.
Full description
A time period suitable for the clinic, patient and companion will be determined by making one-to-one interviews with the companions in the experimental and control groups. Care will be taken to make the applications outside of treatment, visit, care, meal and visitor hours. Accompanying attendants will be met at the specified time and information about the work will be given.
Participants in the control group will be given a Personal Information Form and a Perineum Care Knowledge Test as a pre-test and will be given sufficient time to complete them. The participants in the control group will not be interfered with by the researcher during the research. At the end of the same day, the Perineum Care Knowledge Test will be redistributed and collected as a posttest to the control group. This group will only receive routine nursing training given in the hospital. In palliative care clinics, nurses provide information to patients and their families to help patients maintain their independence and control and make choices during their daily care. In addition, trainings are planned for the needs of the patient and his family. After the research process is completed, a handbook on perineal care will be distributed to the participants in the control group by the researcher.
The participants in the experimental group will be given a Personal Information Form and a Perineum Care Knowledge Test as a pre-test and will be given sufficient time to fill them out. Face-to-face and one-to-one perineal care training will be given to the participants in the experimental group. During the trainings, the presentation prepared in the power point program and the content of perineum care will be conveyed by the researcher in two 30-minute sessions using plain lecture, case study and question and answer techniques. These techniques used are considered to be effective methods in the education of patients and their relatives. Opinions were received from three field experts regarding the content validity of the content of perineal care (CGI: 1.00). The Perineum Care Knowledge Test will be redistributed and collected as a posttest upon completion of the training.
