Summary

Colonoscopy is still the gold standard method for the diagnosis and treatment of colon cancers. Preparation for colonoscopy is a complex processa (eg. restricted diet three days before the procedure and to drink large volumes of drog ) involving many steps. It has been shown that the symptoms experienced by patients during colonoscopy preparation have an impact on the quality of the colonoscopy procedure. Adequate bowel preparation is essential for successful colonoscopy imaging and to detect and remove existing polyps. aim of this study was to examine the effect of the nursing process applied by using standard nursing terminologies on colonoscopy preparation of outpatients on bowel cleansing.

This study was designed as a prospective, single-blind, randomized controlled trial. This study tested the hypothesis that the nursing process using thestandard nursing terminologies NANDA-I, NIC and NOC for colonoscopy preparation has an effect on adequate bowel cleansing.

Nursing Process

In the first step of the nursing process, nursing diagnoses NANDA-I and nursing outcomes (NOC) appropriate to the needs of the individual were selected. Immediately afterwards, the baseline measurements of NOCs were made. In the second stage, nursing interventions were determined in line with the selected diagnoses and started to be implemented. Instructions for the implementation of the selected NICs were reminded by phone 3 days before the procedure appointment and compliance with colonoscopy preparation instructions was monitored. In the third stage, after measurement of the NOCs were performed on the day of the procedure. In addition, the BBPS scores calculated by the endoscopist during the procedure were taken from the patient file and recorded in the data collection form and the stages of the nursing process were completed.
