Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to determine the effect of tele-nursing application based on Orem's Self-care Theory on self-care agency and daily living activities in trauma-related lower extremity fracture surgery patients.


Clinical Trial Description

The research was conducted to determine the effect of tele-nursing application based on Orem's Self-care Theory on self-care agency and daily living activities in trauma-related lower extremity fracture surgery patients. The research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental type study. 52 patients (intervention 26, control 26) were included in the study sample using the "simple randomization method". In order to collect the data, Introductory Information Form, Self-Care Agency Scale, KATZ Activities of Daily Living Scale and Lawton Brody Activities of Daily Living Scale were used. Current hospital procedures were applied to patients in the control group without any intervention. Patients in the intervention group were monitored with a tele-nursing application based on Orem's Self-Care Theory, and training and counseling were provided for 6 weeks after discharge. Data; It was collected face to face once before discharge in both groups, and three times by video conference method: 7-10 days, 18-21 days and 40-45 days after discharge. Tele-Nursing Application Monitoring Form and reminder infographics, prepared based on Orem's Self-Care Theory, were used in the follow-up process of patients who had trauma-related lower extremity fracture surgery. Chi square, independent samples t test, analysis of variance in repeated measurements and Pearson correlation analysis were used to analyze the data. While there was no statistical difference between the groups in the first measurements, in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th measurements, the intervention group's self-care agency, KATZ activities of daily living and Lawton Brody instrumental activities of daily living scale scores were found to be statistically significantly higher than the control group (p<0, 05). In this study, it was concluded that tele-nursing application based on Orem Self-Care Theory has a positive effect on self-care agency and daily life activities. ;
