The effect of video-assisted genital hygiene education on women’s self-care agency and genital hygiene behaviors
Abstract
The authors aimed to evaluate the effect of video-assisted genital hygiene education on research participants’ self-care agency and genital hygiene behaviors. A single-blind, randomized controlled experimental study design was employed among research participants with recurrent urinary tract infections. A total of 66 research participants were randomly assigned to the study groups. The authors analyzed the data using IBM SPSS Statistics Standard Concurrent User V 26. The researchers found that research participants who received video-assisted genital hygiene education showed a statistically significant improvement in their self-care agency and genital hygiene behaviors (p < 0.001). Based on these findings, the authors recommend developing and implementing video-assisted genital hygiene education programs to improve research participants’ self-care agency and genital hygiene behaviors.
