  2 months

Study Arms (2)

The effect of a patient-oriented mobile application

EXPERIMENTAL

Experimental Group: Patients will receive information about the mobile app and install it for free. Preoperative education, pain monitoring, and complication tracking will be conducted via the app. Video consultations will be available for wound care. On surgery day, they will receive standard care. Anxiety will be assessed on postoperative day 1, and daily follow-ups will continue until day 7, when they will complete the Comfort Scale, Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire, and State Anxiety Inventory via the app.

Other: mobile application

standard care

EXPERIMENTAL

Control Group: Patients will receive standard care. Anxiety will be assessed on day 1. They will be informed about a day 7 follow-up call and provided with VAS pain scales and complication checklists. On day 7, a phone interview will collect responses to the Comfort Scale, Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire, and State Anxiety Inventory, along with hospital readmission details.

Other: mobile application

Interventions

mobile application OTHER

The aim is to evaluate whether a patient-centered mobile application with smartphone-based systematic follow-up assessment during the perioperative period can improve surgery-related anxiety, complications, comfort, and patient satisfaction compared to standard care. This thesis will be one of the pioneering studies in this field.

Also known as: standard care
