This clinical study aims to find out if a QR code-based educational video helps adult men manage their urinary catheters after surgery. The study focuses on men who have a catheter after robotic prostate surgery. The main questions this study aims to answer are:Does watching a QR code-based educational video increase participants' knowledge about catheter care compared to receiving standard verbal instructions? Does the video education improve participants' self-management and confidence in taking care of their catheters? Researchers will compare two groups of participants:Video Group: Participants will scan a QR code with their smartphones to watch a short educational video (6 minutes and 40 seconds) about catheter care. They can rewatch this video as many times as they need. Standard Group: Participants will receive the usual standard verbal instructions from hospital staff. What participants will do:Agree to take part in the study and sign a consent form. Complete brief questionnaires about their knowledge, catheter self-management, and confidence levels at specific times (before education, on Day 5, and on Day 19). Follow their usual care plan and use the provided educational materials at home while they have a catheter for 5 to 14 days.
