Examining the Effects of Video-Assisted Discharge Education After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery on Patient Satisfaction and Anxiety

Summary

This study was conducted to examine the effects of standard and individualized video-assisted discharge education on patient satisfaction and anxiety levels following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) surgery. Prior to the initiation of the study, ethical approval was obtained from Hasan Kalyoncu University and the relevant healthcare institutions. The study was carried out with a total of 120 patients who had undergone CABG surgery and were hospitalized in the Cardiovascular Surgery departments of Gaziantep Dr. Ersin Arslan Training and Research Hospital and Gaziantep City Hospital. The patients were randomly assigned into three groups: a control group, a standard video-assisted education group, and an individualized video-assisted education group. Data were collected using the Patient Information Form, the Patient Education Satisfaction Scale, and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). The data were analyzed using SPSS version

Conditions

• Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (CABG)
• Postoperative Discharge Education

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

video discharge education

On the day of discharge, patients in the cardiovascular surgery unit were informed about the study, and their written informed consent was obtained. Before the educational intervention, patients were asked to complete the introductory information form and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). On the same day, routine discharge education was provided by the clinical nurse, and patients' questions were addressed following the session.In addition, a standardized video prepared by the researcher was sent to the patients' mobile phones via text message on the day of discharge. Patients were asked to watch the video, and any questions they had were answered after viewing. They were also informed that they could rewatch the video after discharge whenever they needed to recall the information provided during the education.

BEHAVIORAL

individual video discharge training

On the day of discharge, patients were informed about the study and their written informed consent was obtained. Prior to the educational intervention, the state and trait anxiety levels of the patients in the individualized video group were assessed. To enable patients to access the educational content after discharge, a pre-recorded video prepared by the researcher was sent to their mobile phones via text message. Patients were asked to watch the video, and the researcher remained with them during viewing to answer any potential questions.Information not included in the standard video-such as patients' chronic conditions and medications to be used after discharge-was provided verbally. These individualized instructions were also recorded as a video. The video containing personalized information was then sent to the patients' mobile phones via text message. After all questions were addressed, patients' state anxiety levels and satisfaction with patient education were evaluated

BEHAVIORAL

discharge education

On the day of discharge, patients in the control group were informed about the study, and written informed consent was obtained. Prior to the educational intervention, patients' state and trait anxiety levels were assessed. The data collection form was administered, and patients were asked to complete the questionnaire.Patients in the control group received routine verbal discharge education in accordance with standard clinical practice. Following the education, patients' questions were addressed. Subsequently, their state anxiety levels and satisfaction with patient education were assessed. The data collection form was re-administered, and patients were asked to complete the questionnaire again. Completion of the questionnaires took approximately 15-20 minutes.
