Preoperative Patient Education for Enhanced Recovery After Colon and Rectal Surgery

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of this experimental study is to evaluate whether \*\*preoperative patient education can improve outcomes for individuals undergoing colorectal surgery. This study will focus on adult male and female patients with colon cancer scheduled for colorectal surgery through colonoscopy, excluding those undergoing open surgery. The primary questions this study seeks to answer are: * Do patients who receive preoperative education experience significantly lower levels of preoperative anxiety compared to those receiving routine hospital care? * Do patients receiving nursing instructions report significantly lower levels of oral pain postoperatively compared to those who do not? * Does preoperative education lead to higher levels of patient satisfaction compared to standard care? Researchers will compare a study group that receives preoperative education to a control group receiving routine hospital care to determine the effectiveness of the intervention. Participants will be asked to: * Complete a demographic and medical history questionnaire. * Utilize the Pain Numeric Rating Scale (NRS-11) to self-report pain levels. * Participate in assessments using the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS)\*\*. * Complete a satisfaction survey using the Colorectal Surgical Patient's Satisfaction Tool after surgery. The study aims to assess the impact of preoperative education on anxiety, pain management, and overall patient satisfaction.
