Abstrakt: Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the education provided to patients who would undergo mastectomy on psychological well-being and quality of recovery.
Design: The study had a randomized controlled trial design.
Methods: The study was completed with 62 patients (30 in the experimental group and 32 in the control group). The experimental group received education the day before the operation, and the applications were made 3 days after the operation. A questionnaire form, the psychological well-being scale, and the quality of recovery questionnaire-40 (QoR-40) were used to collect the study data.
Findings: The mean total score of the final measurement of the psychological well-being scale was higher in the experimental group than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant. The difference between the final measurement total score average of QoR-40 and the final measurement point average of the subdimensions of the patients in the experimental and control groups was measured. The difference was statistically significant and the mean score of the experimental group was higher.
Conclusions: Education can increase the level of psychological well-being and quality of recovery in patients who undergo mastectomy. Physiological and psychological education can be used as a tool in nursing practice to improve the level of psychological well-being and quality of recovery in postoperative patients.
