Summary

This randomized controlled trial investigated the effect of discharge education based on Orem's Self-Care Theory on postoperative recovery quality and self-efficacy in women undergoing hysterectomy. The study used a pretest/posttest control-group design and included 64 randomly selected women. The study sample consisted of two groups: an intervention group (n=32) and a control group (n=32). Data were collected between December 1, 2024, and May 31, 2025, from women who presented to the Obstetrics and Gynecology clinic of a training and research hospital in Çorum, Türkiye, and met the inclusion criteria. Data were obtained using the Patient Demographic Information Form, the Quality of Recovery-40 Scale, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale. Women in the intervention group received enhanced face-to-face discharge education based on the Orem Self-Care Theory before discharge, while the control group received standard face-to-face discharge education. Pre-test data were collected via self-report in a hospital setting, while post-test data were collected by telephone at the 4th postoperative week from the intervention group, with the researcher marking the questionnaire responses. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 26.0. Descriptive statistics, Pearson chi-square test, independent samples t-tests, paired samples t-tests, and Fisher's exact test were used in the analysis of the data.
