Effect of Mobile Application- and Artificial Intelligence-Supported Video-Based Patient Education on Patient Outcomes in Teaching Clean Intermittent Catheterization
Effect of Mobile Application- and Artificial Intelligence-Supported Video-Based Patient Education on Patient Outcomes in Teaching Clean Intermittent Catheterization
The study aimed to determine the effects of a mobile application and an artificial intelligence-supported educational video, developed for patients who will perform clean intermittent catheterization (CIC), on patients' adherence, levels of difficulty, self-confidence, infection parameters (urinalysis, urine culture, infection incidence), and recurrent hospital admissions.The number of CIC patients who applied to the Urology Outpatient Clinic of Mersin University within the last year was 110. Since no similar study was found, the sample size was calculated using an a priori power analysis with G*Power 3.1.9.7 software. . As a result of the power analysis, the total sample size was calculated as 90, with 30 participants in each group. Considering a possible data loss (dropout) rate of approximately 10%, it was planned to include 33 participants in each group (a total of 99 participants) at the beginning of the study.Data will be collected using the "Descriptive Information Form," "Intermittent Catheterization Adherence Scale," "Self-Confidence Scale in Clean Intermittent Self-Catheterization," "Intermittent Catheterization Difficulty Questionnaire," and the "Patient Follow-up Form."Patients who will perform clean intermittent catheterization will receive training through a mobile application (intervention group 1) and an artificial intelligence-supported educational video (intervention group 2). Patients in the control group will be trained using the routine brochure provided in the outpatient clinic.
The study was designed as a prospective, three-arm (1:1:1), randomized controlled clinical trial. The study will be conducted at the Urology Outpatient Clinic of Mersin University Faculty of Medicine Hospital. The Urology Outpatient Clinic includes adult and pediatric outpatient units, an intervention room, an ultrasound room, an andrology laboratory, a lithotripsy unit, and a urodynamics unit. The Department of Urology consists of seven faculty members and 11 research assistants. In the urology outpatient clinic, there is one nurse, two technicians, two secretaries, and one cleaning staff member. Outpatient services are provided between 08:00 and 17:00, and clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) training is also delivered to patients during these hours. The nurse provides training to patients who will perform CIC using a brochure. After the training, patients routinely return to the outpatient clinic for follow-up visits on the 15th day and at the 3rd month. study aimed to determine the effects of a mobile application and an artificial intelligence-supported educational video, developed for patients who will perform clean intermittent catheterization (CIC), on patients' adherence, levels of difficulty, self-confidence, infection parameters (urinalysis, urine culture, infection incidence), and recurrent hospital admissions.The number of CIC patients who applied to the Urology Outpatient Clinic of Mersin University within the last year was 110. Since no similar study was found, the sample size was calculated using an a priori power analysis with G*Power 3.1.9.7 software. For the one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), the parameters used were α error probability = 0.05, power (1-β error probability) = 0.80, number of groups = 3, and effect size f = 0.40 (large effect size). As a result of the power analysis, the total sample size was calculated as 90, with 30 participants in each group. Considering a possible data loss (dropout) rate of approximately 10% , it was planned to include 33 participants in each group (a total of 99 participants) at the beginning of the study.Data will be collected using the "Descriptive Information Form," "Intermittent Catheterization Adherence Scale," "Self-Confidence Scale in Clean Intermittent Self-Catheterization," "Intermittent Catheterization Difficulty Questionnaire," and the "Patient Follow-up Form."Patients who will perform clean intermittent catheterization will receive training through a mobile application (intervention group 1) and an artificial intelligence-supported educational video (intervention group 2).
