Abstract

Background: Self-efficacy and self-concept are psychological factors that affect the results of surgery and the recovery of patients. The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of psychological intervention based on mobile applications in improving the self-efficacy and self-concept of laparoscopic cholecystectomy candidates.
Methods: In this semi-experimental study, 60 candidates for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in Shahrekord in 2022 were divided into two groups using permutation blocks. The intervention group used a psychological intervention based on a mobile application for two months, and the control group received only the usual hospital care. Data were collected using two questionnaires, the general self-efficacy of Sherer and the self-concept of Rogers in three stages, before, immediately, and two months after the intervention, and analyzed with descriptive statistics parameters and inferential statistics tests.
Findings: Before the intervention, the average self-efficacy score in the intervention and control groups was 62.70 ± 9.30 and 59.50 ± 7.22, respectively, and the average self-concept score in the intervention and control groups was 10.69 ± 3.45 and 10.63 ± 3.19, respectively, that no was statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of self-efficacy (P = 0.14) and self-concept (P = 0.13). But, immediately after the intervention, the average score of self-efficacy (P = 0.04) and self-concept (P = 0.04) had a statistically significant difference between the two groups. Also, two months after the intervention, the difference in the two groups' mean self-efficacy scores (P = 0.01) and self-concept (P = 0.01) was significant.
Conclusion: Psychological intervention based on mobile application can be used as an effective intervention to improve the self-efficacy and self-concept of laparoscopic cholecystectomy candidates.
