This research aims to evaluate the effect of mobile-based education on the quality of life in women undergoing gynecological oncology surgery. The study is designed as a randomized controlled prospective experiment with the goal to determine if education delivered through a mobile application improves symptom control and quality of life in these patients. The study plans to include 70 women, divided evenly into experimental and control groups, to ensure sufficient power for the analysis. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the experimental group, who will receive training through a mobile-based care support application developed for this study, or the control group, which will not receive this education but will have data collected. The experimental group will receive explanations and provide informed consent during a pre-operative interview at a gynecological oncology outpatient clinic. Data collection tools include an Introductory Information Form, Symptom Evaluation Form, Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-General (FACT-G), and Turkish-Computer System Usability Questionnaire (T-CSUQ-SV). Participants will be assessed two weeks after surgery to measure the impact of the education on their quality of life. Researchers will collect data on symptom control and quality of life using the planned questionnaires and will analyze results with statistical methods including chi-square tests, independent t-tests, and repeated measures ANOVA. The study focuses on women who have internet access and use smartphones, ensuring adherence and usability of the mobile application intervention.
