| Summary: | Abstract Aim To investigate the effect of discharge training on surgical recovery in oncology patients. Design A two‐arm parallel‐group randomized controlled trial (RCT) registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04862104) and reporting according to the CONSORT checklist. Methods The study was conducted with 78 patients who had undergone cancer surgery in a university hospital. The intervention group took discharge training; the control group received routine care. The surgical recovery was measured before discharge and 2, 4 and 8 weeks after the discharge. Results There was a higher surgical recovery score in the intervention group compared with the usual care group at the second, fourth and eighth week after discharge. This study is expected to support discharge training as enhancing recovery in oncology surgical patients. Conclusion This pilot study shows that discharge training developed based on the Nursing Intervention Classification can be used in clinics to enhance the surgical recovery of patients. |
