Abstract

This study was a quasi-experimental research to study the effects of a preparatory information program on anxiety, pain, and hematuria in patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). The preparatory information program was developed based on the Self-Regulation Theory by Leventhal and Johnson. The sample group were of 24 male patients divided into a control group and an experimental group, with 12 patients in each group for elective transurethral resection of the prostate at Naresuan University Hospital for the first time. The data collection recording form such as personal information record, an anxiety questionnaire, a pain assessment scale, and a hematuria assessment scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including frequency distribution, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, Chi-square test, Fisher’s exact test, Paired t-test and Independent t-test            The research findings revealed that after receiving the program, the experimental group had a significantly lower mean anxiety score compared to before receiving the program (p < .001). The experimental group also had a significantly lower mean anxiety score than the control group (p < .001). The experimental group also had a significantly lower mean pain score than the control group (p < .05). However, there was no significant difference in the incidence of hematuria between the experimental and control groups (p > .05)                 Therefore, it is recommended to implement the preoperative information and preparatory information program for patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate, as this program effectively reduces preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain.
