Summary

This study aimed to assess the impact of e-mobile training, structured according to the Life Model, on the anxiety levels and daily living activities of patients who had undergone thyroidectomy.

The study was conducted as a prospective, two-arm (1:1), randomized controlled interventional study involving 68 patients. All patients received standard discharge protocols. In addition, patients in the intervention group received Life Model-based e-mobile education through a mobile application.
