Nurse Navigation Programs Affect to Anxiety, Perception of Quality Nursing Care and Stress Hormone Levels
Sponsor: Uludag University
Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effect of a nurse-led preoperative navigation program on preoperative anxiety, perceived quality of perioperative nursing care, and serum cortisol levels in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. A total of 60 patients scheduled for CABG surgery will be recruited from the cardiovascular surgery clinic and randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n=30) or the control group (n=30). Patients in the intervention group will receive a structured nurse-led preoperative navigation program, including verbal education and an animated video about the surgical and operating room process. Patients in the control group will receive standard perioperative care. Preoperative anxiety, serum cortisol and glucose levels, and perceived quality of perioperative nursing care will be assessed at specified time points.

Nursing navigation program
Participants will receive a structured nurse-led preoperative navigation program delivered approximately 7 days prior to surgery. The program consists of verbal counselling provided by the researcher about the surgical process and operating room procedures, along with an educational animated video designed to explain the perioperative process in a clear and patient-friendly manner. The animated video (9 minutes and 56 seconds) includes information on the purpose of coronary artery bypass graft surgery, preoperative preparation, transfer to the operating room, the operating room environment and surgical team, and postoperative care in the intensive care unit. The video will be made available to patients and/or their relatives and can be viewed repeatedly until the day of surgery.
