It is a randomized controlled trial involving two groups: one receiving AI-supported education and the other receiving standard preoperative education. The primary outcomes are to assess changes in surgical fear and anxiety levels. The study targets adult female patients diagnosed with breast cancer who are scheduled for total mastectomy.
