Abstract

The purpose of the this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the traditional pamphlet-based guidance for gastrectomy patients with the Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI) method, which was developed in order to improve dietary guidance for gastrectomy patients. <br> The subjects were 15 patients who had undergone gastrectomies at Hospital A in JAPAN. Nine patients who were in the hospital from August to September of 2002 were assigned to the pamphlet group, and the remaining 6 patients who were in the hospital from October to November of 2002 were assigned to the CAI group. Questionnaires were given to each group both during hospitalization and 1 to 2 months after discharge. <br> The scores for dietary knowledge were similar in the two groups during the hospitalization period, but were significantly higher in the CAI group than in the pamphlet-based group after discharge. During the period of hospitalization, patients in both groups were under the care of nurses and nutritionists. After discharge, subjects in the CAI group were able to practice self-learning on their own accord much better than were subjects in the pamphlet-based group.
