Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

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. The sample includes who operated with appendectomy between the ages of 8 and 12 who met the inclusion criteria in the Pediatric Surgery Clinic as 60 children. Participants will be divided into two equal groups as intervention (n=30) and control (n=30) groups. Children and Parents Descriptive Characteristics Form, State Anxiety Inventory for Children, State Anxiety Inventory (for Parents), Quality of Life Scale for Children, Evaluation of Postoperative Mobilization Time will be used to collect data. Data will be analyzed with appropriate statistical methods using the SPSS for Windows 22.0 program (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). Descriptive statistical methods such as percentile, mean, standard deviation and median in the evaluation of data and Kolmogorov-Smirnov distribution test for examining normal distribution, chi-square test, t-test/Mann Whitney-U test for measurement data, One-Way ANOVA/Kruskall Wallis tests will be used.

Intervention Group

Pre-operative training will be given by the clinic nurse with audio and picture book. Training content with audio and picture book; Before the operation, the procedures performed during the admission of the patient to the service (introducing the clinic and staff to the patient), what are the preoperative preparations (checking vital signs, intravenous (IV) catheter application, wearing a surgical gown), wearing a patient tag on the wrist, taking him to the operating room on a stretcher), which will be used during the operation anesthesia techniques and how to provide sedation (the anesthetic agent can be given by mask or IV catheter, the reasons are the clothes worn by doctors and nurses in the operating room), what are the procedures that can be applied after the surgery (vital signs control, monitoring, oxygen administration, serum insertion, etc.).

Intervention Type OTHER

In the experimental group, pre-operative anxiety and quality of life scales will be applied to the child and their parents before and after the operation with audio and picture books, the preoperative quality of life scale will be made, the postoperative anxiety and quality of life scale will be repeated and the early mobilization scale will be made.

The control group will be routinely informed before the operation, an anxiety scale will be given to the child and their parents before the operation, a quality of life scale will be given to the child, the postoperative anxiety and quality of life scale will be repeated, and early mobilization form will be applied.

Control Group

Routine training will be given by a nurse working in the clinic during the preoperative period. The content of the routine training: What are the procedures performed during the admission of the patient to the service before the operation (introducing the clinic and the staff to the patient), what the preoperative preparation is (checking vital signs, intravenous (IV) catheter application, wearing a surgical gown, wearing a patient tag on the wrist, with a stretcher. being taken to the operating room), what are the procedures that can be applied after the surgery (vital signs control, monitoring, oxygen administration, serum insertion, etc.), there may be some medical materials that were applied to the patient during the surgery (nasogastric tube, IV catheter, types of drains placed in the wound site) includes information such as
