Clinical Trial Summary

Behavioral practices applied to the child in the preoperative period; It includes methods such as introducing the hospital and operating room to children and their parents, reading storybooks, giving training books, an educational internet application with interactive games, and using visual aids. At the same time, by using an appropriate anatomy book, it can help the child to visualize his body correctly, to understand the size and location of the surgical site, and to learn where the suture will be after the intervention.In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative education with the help of audio and picture books on postoperative anxiety, quality of life and early mobilization.

Description:

Psychological preparation process in the pre-operative period; It reduces anxiety, uses less anesthetic during the operation, normalizes vital signs in a short time, uses less painkillers and helps early discharge. Behavioral practices applied to the child in the preoperative period; It includes methods such as introducing the hospital and operating room to children and their parents, reading storybooks, giving training booklets, an educational internet application with interactive games, and using visual aids. At the same time, by using an appropriate anatomy book, it can help the child to visualize his body correctly, to understand the size and location of the surgical site, and to learn where the suture will be after the intervention. No study was found in which children aged 8-12 years were educated with the help of audio and picture books before appendectomy and evaluated postoperative anxiety, quality of life and mobilization time. In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative education with the help of audio and picture books on postoperative anxiety, quality of life and early mobilization. The study was planned randomized controlled study. The statistical universe of this study, includes pediatric patients who operated between February 2021 and December 2021 in Pediatric Surgery Department in Zeynep Kamil Maternity and Children's hospital.
