    Author: Cayir G, Beji NK, Yalcin O.
    Journal: Urol Nurs; 2007 Feb; 27(1):25-33. PubMed ID: 17390924.
    Abstract:
    This study was conducted in two stages with 32 Turkish women undergoing surgery for correction of stress urinary incontinence. In Stage 1, 13 subjects (Group 1) were recruited for interviews and observations of their nursing care needs. Stage I also involved the development of a patient education pamphlet, nursing care protocol, and a standard nursing care plan. In Stage II, a new group of 19 subjects (Group 2) were recruited. Preoperative education and the patient education pamphlet developed during Stage I were provided to Group 2 subjects. A standard nursing care plan and nursing care protocol were also applied in the postoperative period for Group 2 subjects. The study protocol implemented by Turkish nurses and physicians is detailed. Study results are also described and discussed.
