SUMMARY

Urinary catheterization is the insertion of a tube through the urethra into the bladder to empty or flush the bladder. Catheterization is preferred in patients with urinary retention and urinary incontinence, in patients who will undergo surgical intervention or in cases where a procedure needs to be performed in the urinary tract, and is applied for short (1-7 days), medium (7-28 days) and long term (longer than 28 days) (National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. (2023). Urinary catheterization is frequently preferred in applications related to treatment and care. According to the CAUTI report, the frequency of urinary catheterization in hospitalized patients in one year is between 15-25% in the world. This rate is between 10-15% in developed countries and 20-30% in developing countries (CAUTI, 2015).

Treatments
No_intervention: Control Group
Patients in the control group will not be given any content and their routine care and education will continue. Patients in the control group will be asked to complete the Urinary Catheter Self-Efficacy Scale and Comfort Scale at the 6th and 24 th hours following urinary catheter insertion.
Active_comparator: intervention group
Patients in the intervention group will be informed about the urinary catheter by the researcher after catheter insertion, and the link to the e-booklet will be given and the patients will be asked to review it. Patients will be asked to fill out the Urinary Catheter Self-Efficacy Scale and Comfort Scale at the 6th and 24th hour following urinary catheter insertion. After the completion of the study, the link to the e-booklet will be given to the patients in the control group to maintain the principle of equality. The research data will be collected by the researcher between 30.09.2024 and 30.10.2025 via Google survey.
