- The study compares ICT and social media knowledge and use between 81 nurses (avg age 41) and 209 patients (avg age 36) in perioperative outpatient care.
- Patients rated ICT knowledge as more important than nurses (2.78 vs. 2.69), showing a significant gap in perception and expectations.
- Education tailored to both groups' distinct perspectives could help prevent postoperative complications through home-based ICT use.
