Clinical Trial Description

Today, due to changing guidelines, current approaches, and new paradigms, the approach to thyroid surgery has become more sensitive and selective. Besides, thyroid surgery has increased due to the increase in thyroid cancer and early detection of thyroid nodules. In a comprehensive study conducted by the Thyroid Cancer Association with 2398 patients in 35 countries, it is found that 92.6% of the patients did not receive psychological support, 84.1% did not receive institutional information, and 63.0% did not receive written information about the disease or treatment. Thyroidectomy patients are known to experience postoperative complications and symptoms such as hypocalcemia, hoarseness, dysphagia, drowsiness, or restricted neck/shoulder movement. Therefore, informing thyroidectomy patients about the surgical process will facilitate the management of the process. In addition to this, due to the increasing use of the internet with the developing technology, the behaviors of the patients searching for information from the internet are increasing day by day. It has been found that the rate of searching for health information from the internet is 68-72% in the world. Under this scope, this study will evaluate the effect of the web-based training on with thyroidectomy patients ;
