Brief Summary

This quasi-experimental study aimed to compare video-based preoperative education with traditional verbal counseling in terms of anxiety, postoperative pain, and patient satisfaction among women scheduled for laparoscopic tubal ligation. The study was conducted between January and June 2024 and included 80 women. Participants were allocated to either a routine verbal counseling group or a video-based education group, with 40 participants in each group. The video-based education group received preoperative counseling through an animated educational video, whereas the control group received routine verbal counseling. Demographic and obstetric characteristics were recorded. Anxiety levels were assessed using the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, postoperative pain was evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale, and patient satisfaction was measured after the procedure. The outcomes of the two groups were compared to evaluate the effect of video-based preoperative education

Conditions

Patient Education; Tubal Ligation; Anxiety

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Mean Postoperative Patient Satisfaction Score on a Single-Item 5-Point Likert Satisfaction Scale

  Overall postoperative patient satisfaction was assessed using a single-item 5-point Likert satisfaction scale. Participants selected one response ranging from 1 point ("not satisfied at all") to 5 points ("very satisfied"). The unit of measure is points. Higher scores indicate greater patient satisfaction. The outcome metric is the mean satisfaction score reported for each study arm

  Immediately after recovery from anesthesia on the day of surgery
