What this Trial Is About
This clinical trial aims to find out if nurse-led education and additional tele-interventions can lower the rate of surgical wound infections in patients following coronary artery bypass surgery. The study specifically compares standard postoperative care with nurse-led patient education, both alone and combined with tele-intervention support, to see which approach is most effective in reducing infections after surgery. Participants are assigned to one of three groups Group A receives standard care without extra education or tele-interventions Group B receives nurse-led education using a specially designed booklet and Group C receives the same nurse-led education plus tele-interventions and an educational video created for this study. These groups help researchers understand the impact of education and telemedicine on infection rates. During the study, participants will follow their assigned care plan and have regular follow-up to monitor for surgical site infections. Researchers will track and report any infections over six months after surgery to assess the effects of the interventions. This includes ongoing evaluation of infection rates to determine if added education and tele-interventions provide measurable benefits.
