Abstract

Background: craniotomy surgery is a terrible experience for patients and their families. Patients' worries regarding daily living activities prior surgery and after discharge are the most prevalent. Nurses assess and educate patients on their abilities to undertake self-care after release from the hospital, but they frequently express worry about what they may face at home. Patients got instructions from surgeons and nurses in our setting, but there was no one discharge document that served as a rapid and thorough reference. Precision postoperative instructions for patients to employ at home are crucial to their health. Aims: To evaluate the impact of an instructional program on patient's performance about self-care after craniotomy surgery. To find out the association between impact of an instructional program on patient's performance about self-care after craniotomy surgery and demographic data of patients. Subjects and methods: A pre-experimental design (one group pre-test/ post-test design) is applied has been done to obtain the study goals. Forty-four patients had craniotomy surgery selecting by non-probability sample (convenience) sampling. Their age ranged from (20-60 or more) years old, fully conscious after operation. One group that gives instructional program. Using a valid and reliable questionnaire, data was collected.
