Brief summary

This study was planned to examine the effect of bowel preparation training and monitoring given to patients planned to undergo colonoscopy on the level of anxiety, compliance with bowel preparation and bowel cleansing. The research sample was collected at the Sultan II. University of Health Sciences affiliated to the Istanbul Provincial Health Directorate between December 2022 and August 2023. 34 intervention and 34 control groups will be randomly selected from outpatients who apply to the Colonoscopy Unit of Abdülhamid Han Training and Research Hospital and meet the inclusion criteria. In this study, it is aimed to increase the effect of bowel preparation training, supported by nurses in the clinic and via instant messaging/calling or communication application, on patients' anxiety level, level of compliance with bowel preparation, and bowel cleansing in patients scheduled for colonoscopy.
