Treatments tested in this trial
Education on Urinary Catheter Care
Other interventionUrinary catheter care training based on the Roper, Logan, and Tierney Lifestyle Model was developed based on daily living activities. A training booklet was created based on 11 daily living activities (providing and maintaining a safe environment, communication, breathing, nutrition, etc.). To increase the effectiveness of the training, a booklet based on this model will be prepared and used as a guide in the training program.

CAUTI Prevention Attitude
The scale developed by Koçyiğit Kavak et al. (2024) is a 31-item instrument designed to assess patients' attitudes towards preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infections. The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale was conducted by Koçyiğit Kavak et al. in 2024. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was reported as 0.882. The scale consists of 31 items in a five-point Likert type format, with response options ranging from "Never = 1," "Rarely = 2," "Sometimes = 3," "Often = 4," to "Always = 5." The minimum possible score is 31, and the maximum score is 155. Higher scores indicate more positive patient attitudes towards preventing catheter-associated urinary tract infections.
Time frame
Time Frame: "Baseline (discharge planning day)" Time Frame: "Day of catheter removal (within 3-7 days after discharge)2
Anxiety
To determine individuals' anxiety levels, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) will be used. The scale consists of a total of 40 items and is a four-point Likert-type instrument composed of two subscales: the State Anxiety Inventory (first 20 items) and the Trait Anxiety Inventory (last 20 items). The State Anxiety subscale measures how an individual feels at a particular time and under specific conditions, whereas the Trait Anxiety subscale assesses how an individual generally feels regardless of the situation and conditions. A score between 0-19 indicates no anxiety, 20-39 indicates mild anxiety, 40-59 indicates moderate anxiety, and 60-79 indicates severe anxiety.
