CABG-AI-Supported Discharge Education
The Effect of Artificial Intelligence-Supported Individualized Discharge Education on Postoperative Pain, Anxiety, Stress Response, Recovery, and Discharge Education Satisfaction in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 31 Mar 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence-supported individualized discharge education for patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Participants will be assigned to either the intervention group, which will receive personalized AI-generated discharge education delivered through a nurse-avatar video in addition to standard verbal education, or the control group, which will receive standard discharge education only. The study will compare postoperative pain, anxiety, physiological stress response, recovery, and satisfaction with discharge education between the two groups. Outcomes will be measured during hospitalization and at the routine postoperative follow-up visit. The findings may help improve patient education methods and postoperative recovery in cardiac surgery patients.
