Objective: In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the readiness status of patients who are planned to be discharged after the surgical procedure.
Method: Explanatory sequential mixed design will be used in accordance with the purpose of the study. The purpose of the exploratory sequential design is to clarify the relationships obtained with the quantitative data by applying the qualitative step.
This pattern is applied in two stages. The first phase begins with the collection of quantitative data that will essentially answer the research question. In the second stage, qualitative data are collected and the collected data is interpreted to help explain the quantitative results.
Akdeniz University is the lead sponsor of 289 studies on the registry; 60 are open to participants now.
Counted across the registry records on this site, refreshed daily.
In the Turkish validity and reliability study, the minimum sample size for the 95% confidence interval was calculated as 1251 (t=1.96; d=0.1) by using the standard deviation value (σ=1.85) found for the Discharge Readiness Scale.
Considering that there would be missing or missing data, it was planned to take 10% more than the number of samples.
As a result, the number of samples was determined as 1376.

Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale/Short Form
