Abstract
Background/Aims
The purpose of this study is to investigate how effectively audiovisual aids education can improve patients' bowel preparation and their satisfaction during colonoscopic examination. Methods: The control group consisted of 116 patients and the experimental group consisted of 109 patients. The control group was given the existing test guidebooks and the experimental group was offered audiovisual aids education immediately before the test. After the test, the patients assessed. Results: In regard to the organization and consistency of colonoscopic education, the experimental group showed a statistically significant score (p=0.000). In regard to satisfaction with the colonoscopy, the average score of the control group was 7.50⁑2.02, while that of the experimental group was 8.63⁑1.76 (p=0.000). In regard to bowel preparation, the experimental group showed a statistically meaningful score compared to that of the control group (p=0.002). In terms of examination time comparison, the experimental group returned a statistically meaningful score (p=0.005). In regard to the nurses' task satisfaction, according to the information offered, the experimental group showed a statistically significant score (8.47⁑1.32) compared to the control group (6.49⁑2.23)(p=0.000). Conclusions: The audiovisual aids education enhanced the patients' satisfaction. Therefore these aids are worth incorporating within nursing methods. (Intest Res 2007;5:52-59)
