Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Peritoneal Dialysis Knowledge Scale
Time Frame: Immediately after recruitment, 1 month and 2 months after intervention
Knowledge issues related to peritoneal dialysis. The Peritoneal Dialysis Care Knowledge Questionnaire will include questions related to hand hygiene, peritoneal dialysis exchange procedures, catheter exit-site care, and knowledge about infections and peritonitis. The questionnaire consists of approximately 20 questions. Each correct answer is awarded 1 point, while incorrect answers receive 0 points, with a total score of 20 points. A higher score indicates better knowledge of peritoneal dialysis care among participants.
Immediately after recruitment, 1 month and 2 months after intervention
Peritoneal Dialysis Procedure Checklist
Time Frame: Immediately after recruitment, 1 month and 2 months after intervention
This scale is used to evaluate all steps involved in hand hygiene, peritoneal dialysis solution bag exchange, and catheter exit-site care. Each item is assessed with a "Yes" or "No" response, with a total of 25 items. Correct actions are awarded 1 point, while incorrect actions receive 0 points, for a maximum score of 25. Higher scores indicate better proficiency in peritoneal dialysis care-related techniques among participants.
Immediately after recruitment, 1 month and 2 months after intervention
