Purpose : The purpose of this study was to understand the effect the provision of nursing information for patients who underwent vaginal total hysterectomy had on the fear and anxiety about physical recuperation and the emblematic knowledge of uterus. Method : The study was designed for a quasi-experimental study, with nonequivalent control group non-synchronized. Subjects were 60 patients who underwent vaginal total hysterectomy with benign uterine disease. Subjects were divided into 30 for experimental group and 30 for control group. Result; 1)“the experimental group that is provided with nursing information will have less fear of physical recuperation than control group", was supported. 2) “the experimental group that is provided with nursing information will have less anxiety than control group", was supported. 3) "the experimental group that is provided with nursing information total hysterectomy will have more emblematic knowledge of uterus than control group", was supported. Conclusion : The provision of nursing information appears to be valuable for being clinically utilized as an independent nursing intervention.
