Brief Summary

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

This study aims to evaluate the effect of the training given to the relatives of patients undergoing colonoscopy with the Teach-Back Method on anxiety and knowledge level.

Research hypotheses:

H1: The training given with the Teach-Back Method decreases the anxiety level of patient relatives.

H2: The training provided with the Teach-Back Method increases the knowledge level of patient relatives.

Detailed Description

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

Teach-back technique is an effective educational method that enables a person to rephrase what he/she has learnt in his/her own words to show that he/she understands. There is no study evaluating the effect of the education to be given with the Teach-back technique to the relatives of patients who will undergo colonoscopy. In addition, in this study, anxiety and knowledge levels of the relatives of the patients before and after the training will be discussed and will be a guide for future studies. The training to be given with the Teach-back technique will increase the level of knowledge of the patient's relatives and ensure that they know what to expect at every stage of the procedure. At the end of the study, the participants will be asked about their level of satisfaction with the Teach-back technique. According to the results of the study, it is expected that the use of Teach-back technique in the education of patients and their relatives will increase.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Teach back education group

In the first stage, all participants will be explained about the research and their consent will be obtained. 'Personal Information Form' will be filled out for the relatives of the patients whose informed consents are obtained and who agree to participate in the study. Then, 'Information Questionnaire' and 'State Anxiety Scale' will be administered to all patient relatives as a pretest.

In the second stage, the relatives of the patients who will undergo colonoscopy will be trained with the Teach-back technique.

In the third stage, 'Information Questionnaire' and 'State Anxiety Scale' will be applied as posttest after the training. In addition, 'Satisfaction Evaluation of Teach-Back Method' will be performed.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Teach Back Education

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The relatives of patients who will undergo colonoscopy will be trained with the teach-back technique.

Control Group

In the first stage, all participants will be explained about the research and their consent will be obtained. 'Personal Information Form' will be filled out for the relatives of the patients whose informed consents are obtained and who agree to participate in the study. Then, 'Information Questionnaire' and 'State Anxiety Scale' will be administered to all patient relatives as a pretest.

No intervention will be made in the second stage. The routine process in the hospital will continue.

In the third stage, 'Information Questionnaire' and 'State Anxiety Scale' will be administered to the relatives of the patients in both intervention and control groups as posttest after the training.
