Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Conventional patient education  Patients in the control group received conventional patient education along with standard physiotherapy care. Conventional patient education sessions covered various aspects of postoperative care, including pain management, splinting, dos and donts, drain care, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pressure sore prevention, diaphragmatic breathing, thoracic expansion, incentive spirometry, graded mobilization, and safe transfers. Following patient education, standard physical therapy treatment commenced with two sessions each day. Every session began with diaphragmatic exercises (4 repetitions across 2 sets) and progressed to thoracic expansion exercises (6 repetitions across 2 sets). After that, the patients performed incentive spirometry exercise. patients afterwards performed safe transfers to ensure that they could move between positions in a comfortable and secure method. Finally, the sessions concluded with graded mobilization activities tailored to individual capabilities and postoperative needs. 
Intervention  Video-assisted patient education  Patients in the intervention group received standard physiotherapy care in addition to videos that presented patient education. The video content was methodically developed to provide comprehensive postoperative care and rehabilitation guidance from a physiotherapy perspective. The videos were aimed at encouraging maximum healing and functional restoration while addressing multiple aspects of recovery after open abdominal surgery. Following the video sessions, tailored physiotherapy exercises comparable to control group were administered, complementing the educational content. Daily two sessions were delivered with each session ranging from 30-45 minutes.

Brief Summary   Evidence indicates that conventional verbal and written treatment information frequently lacks clarity and may only be partially comprehended by patients. Simulation videos offer an effective means of enhancing patient comprehension and satisfaction, simplifying complex concepts and improving engagement in healthcare education programs.Therefore, the research question for this randomized trial was: Is video-assisted patient education a better approach than conventional patient education in reducing anxiety, kinesiophobia, and enhancing patient satisfaction with physiotherapy post open abdominal surgery?
