Brief Summary

This study examines the effect of discharge training given to patients with intertrochanteric femur fractures on the wound healing process and readiness for discharge. In the study, patients were provided with certain educational content before and after discharge. The effect of training on wound healing, readiness for discharge and post-discharge recovery process will be evaluated statistically.

Surgical Wound

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Toronto Wound Symptom Assessment System

  The Toronto Wound Symptom Assessment System-TYSDS was developed to evaluate the symptoms of patients with chronic wounds in 2009. Toronto Wound Symptom Assessment System - TYSDS is a tool consisting of 10 questions and each question gives a total of 11 points between 0-10. 0 in each question means that the symptom is not observed, and 10 means that the symptom is seen very intensely. A minimum score of 0 and a maximum of 100 points are obtained from the scale, and increasing scores indicate that the wound symptoms are more intense.

EXPERIMENTAL

In addition to the standard clinical monitoring applied in the clinic in a quiet and calm environment in the patient's room, outside of the doctor's visit, meal time, visiting and treatment hours and approximately two hours after the painkiller application, approximately 30 minutes (related to the subjects included in the developed booklet, nutrition, Discharge training (such as surgical recovery, movement, excretion, self-care skills, pain, exercise) will be given to patients. The patient will be asked to demonstrate the trainings (movements, exercises, etc.) that are explained to the patient by doing them at least three times. At the end of the training, a booklet prepared in accordance with the surgery the patient underwent will be given to the patient.

Behavioral: Discharge Education

No discharge training provided

NO INTERVENTION

Patients included in the control group will receive routine discharge training and clinical follow-up at the Orthopedics Clinic. During standard clinical follow-up, service nurses provide verbal information to patients hospitalized in the Orthopedic Clinic about wound care, signs of infection at the wound site, medication use and post-discharge control times before discharge, but no written training materials are used.
