Brief Summary

Urinary catheterization is the insertion of a tube through the urethra into the bladder to empty or flush the bladder. Catheterization is preferred in patients with urinary retention and urinary incontinence, in patients who will undergo surgical intervention or in cases where a procedure needs to be performed in the urinary tract, and is applied for short (1-7 days), medium (7-28 days) and long term (longer than 28 days) (National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. (2023). Urinary catheterization is frequently preferred in applications related to treatment and care. According to the CAUTI report, the frequency of urinary catheterization in hospitalized patients in one year is between 15-25% in the world. This rate is between 10-15% in developed countries and 20-30% in developing countries (CAUTI, 2015).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• First Follow-up (Personal Information Form, Urinary Catheter Self-Efficacy Scale and Comfort Scale

  Pretest (Descriptive statistics will be shown with frequencies and percentages, and the distribution of variables according to scale scores will be shown with median (minimum-maximum) values.

  after catheterization ( First 1 hour)

Study Arms (2)

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in the control group will not be given any content and their routine care and education will continue. Patients in the control group will be asked to complete the Urinary Catheter Self-Efficacy Scale and Comfort Scale at the 6th and 24 th hours following urinary catheter insertion.

intervention group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients in the intervention group will be informed about the urinary catheter by the researcher after catheter insertion, and the link to the e-booklet will be given and the patients will be asked to review it. Patients will be asked to fill out the Urinary Catheter Self-Efficacy Scale and Comfort Scale at the 6th and 24th hour following urinary catheter insertion. After the completion of the study, the link to the e-booklet will be given to the patients in the control group to maintain the principle of equality. The research data will be collected by the researcher between 30.09.2024 and 30.10.2025 via Google survey.

Behavioral: e-book

Interventions

e-book BEHAVIORAL

Patients with pilot application will not be included in the study. Patients who agree to participate in the study will be informed by the researcher about the purpose and process of the study, and their written and verbal informed consent will be obtained. Patients will be informed that the decision on whether or not to participate in the study is entirely their own, that no money will be deducted from their health insurance or any money will be paid to them, that the data to be collected from this study will only be used within the scope of the research, and that confidentiality will be strictly ensured. Pretests (Personal Information Form, Urinary Catheter Self-Efficacy Scale and Comfort Scale) will be administered to the patients whose consent is obtained.
