Teaching method for recovery after pilonidal sinus surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a special teaching method to help people understand their recovery after pilonidal sinus surgery. The goal is to make discharge instructions clearer and support a smoother recovery at home.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 64 years old.
- Your pilonidal sinus surgery was scheduled in advance (not an emergency).

- You are recovering well after surgery and do not need intensive care.
- You can read and speak Turkish clearly, and you can join a follow-up visit 10 days after leaving the hospital.

This trial tests if adding phenol treatment to laser therapy helps the wound heal faster and better after treating pilonidal sinus (a small tunnel in the skin near the tailbone). It is for people who have this condition for the first time and have only a few sinus openings.
This study tests a new way to treat pilonidal sinus (a small tunnel under the skin near the tailbone) that combines special surgery with a drain that you can care for at home. It is for people who cannot easily come back to the hospital for wound care, so they can recover in their own community.
This study compares two simple, non-surgical treatments for pilonidal sinus, a small tunnel under the skin near the tailbone. Both treatments are injected directly into the sinus to help it heal, and the study aims to see which one works better.
This trial compares three ways to treat pilonidal sinus (a small tunnel in the skin near the tailbone). It looks at which method works best: just removing the pit, using a chemical called phenol, or doing both together.
This study tests whether teaching 4th-year nursing students about ERAS (a protocol to help patients recover faster after surgery) improves their knowledge and confidence in using these methods. You would attend educational sessions and complete short questionnaires over one month.
This study looks at factors that may affect wound healing after surgery for pilonidal sinus disease. It aims to help doctors and patients understand what might cause the wound to open up, so they can take steps to prevent it.
