About

Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of face-to-face and video-based education for fistula care on hemodialysis patients' self-care behaviors.

Methods: The study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study. Fistula care training was given to the patients in the control group using face-to-face education technique. Fistula care training was given to the patients in the experimental group using a video based technique.

Full description

Experimental group: The researcher provided the patient education the on fistula care. In this training, the researcher first verbally explained fistula care to the patients. After the verbal training, a video recording about fistula care was shown to the patients. The patients watched the video recording during dialysis using the TV unit at the bedside. The training took 20 minutes. Patients were allowed to watch the training video twice, at a one-week interval, when they came for hemodialysis treatment after the condition of the patients on dialysis stabilized.

Topics: Video recordings on of fistula care was done by the researchers in the vocational skills laboratory. The video flow plan included the introduction of the materials to be used in fistula care as well as the researcher's presentation of how to manage the fistula. Fistula care steps were performed on the simulation model. In addition, the precautions to be taken during the application and what to do in case of possible complications were also shown.

Literature review, research results, clinicians' opinions, and experts and practices were used in editing the content of verbal training and video recording,

Video based education

Experimental group

Description:

The video was prepared by the researchers in line with the literature. Expert opinion was obtained from 10 individuals with at least a doctorate and studies on the subject of video content. In line with expert opinions, the video content was updated and finalized. Patient education with the prepared video was provided by one of the researchers involved in the study. The video education took 20 minutes in total. Topics: Video recordings on of fistula care was done by the researchers in the vocational skills laboratory. The video flow plan included the introduction of the materials to be used in fistula care as well as the researcher's presentation of how to manage the fistula. Fistula care steps were performed on the simulation model. In addition, the precautions to be taken during the application and what to do in case of possible complications were also shown.

Other: Video based education

Face to face education

Experimental group

Description:

The patients were trained on fistula care by the researcher. Fistula care training was given to the patients in the control group using face-to-face education technique. In this training, researcher verbally explained fistula care to patients. The training was conducted one-on-one with the patient in the patient's room and lasted 10 minutes. The training was presented to the patient through the lecture method. The training was also supported by the question-and-answer method. The training was given twice, one week apart, when patients came for hemodialysis treatment after the condition of the patients on dialysis stabilized.

Treatment:

Other: Face to face education
