The Effect of Patient Education and in the Operating Room Family Interview Practices on Patient Outcomes Using Virtual Reality in Cholecystectomy Patients

The educational video is created by converting the information provided by the service nurses into a video when the patient is admitted to the ward for surgery. The video will show a 2-3 minute animation of a nurse giving information. In a patient room, the service nurse will come to the newly admitted patient and explain the concept of cholecystectomy, the reasons for removing the gallbladder, how laparoscopic cholecystectomy is performed, the advantages of laparoscopic surgery compared to open surgery, the preparation process before and on the day of surgery, the conditions to be monitored after surgery, the importance of nutrition and fluid intake, defecation, the importance of early mobilization and discharge.

Patients will have a 5-minute video call with their families in a 360° designed home environment using virtual reality glasses in the operating room waiting area.
