Simple discharge lesson boosts hysterectomy recovery, study finds
NCT ID NCT07539558
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a special discharge education program, based on Orem's Self-Care Theory, helps women recover better after a hysterectomy. Sixty-four women who had the surgery (but not for cancer) took part. Half received the enhanced teaching, and half got the usual instructions. The results showed that the extra guidance improved their recovery quality and self-confidence at 4 weeks after surgery.
