Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
E-mobile application will be used as data collection tool. The research will be carried out with 2 groups as application (mobile application) and control (standard care).
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
E-mobile application will be used as data collection tool. The "E-Mobile Application Training Content Guide" to be integrated into the mobile application will be evaluated by the experts with the "Conformity Evaluation Form of Written Training Materials" and the "DISCERN Scale". After the training content is completed, "Personal Information Form", "STAI State and Trait Anxiety Scale", "Assessment and Monitoring Form for Daily Living Activities" will be used. In the preliminary application, the "System Usability Scale" and the e-mobile application will be evaluated by the patients. The "E-Mobile Application Training Content Guide" created by the researchers in line with the literature will be transferred to the mobile application with the help of computer engineers and graphic designers. Sequence and visuality of education Roper et al. It was designed according to the Life Activities Based Nursing Model developed by The e-mobile application is designed in accordance with the Android operating system and its language is Turkish. Patients who download the application from the virtual market (Google Play) can log in with the user name and password created by the researcher. The user name and password were created by the researcher specifically for each patient during the research process. The number of clicks and the reading time of the topics read by the patients entering the application can be tracked with the help of the created web page. The research will be carried out with 2 groups as application (mobile application) and control (standard care).
