Patients in the Brochure-Supported Video Education Group were given information about urodynamics in a room reserved for education, and the education brochure was introduced. They examined the brochure and watched the educational video on a computer.

Patients in this group were given routine clinical information by the healthcare professional that would perform the urodynamics procedure. After patients were given verbal information, a written text containing the necessary preparations for urodynamics was given to them. The routine patient information text included adjustment to the appointment day and time, nutrition, mechanical bowel preparation, and medications necessary for the procedure.
