Obsessive beliefs and thought control have been mostly investigated in obsessive-compulsive disorder in the literature. However, there is an increasing body of literature indicating that obsessive beliefs and thought control also play a role in the development of other anxiety disorders. In the study, investigators hypothesised that obsessive beliefs and thought control are effective in generalised anxiety disorder and panic disorder and increase anxiety symptoms and aimed to investigate the accuracy of this hypothesis.
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic disease that follows a course of remission and flare-ups. Especially during flare-ups, the worsening of symptoms negatively affects all aspects of the individual's life and decreases their quality of life. Individuals sometimes have difficulty accessing healthcare facilities. In addition, every hospital admission causes an additional burden on healthcare institutions and the individual, both physically and financially. Therefore, it is of great importance to support and develop self-management behaviors for individuals to control their symptoms. Progressive relaxation techniques are a relaxation method based on the principle of voluntary contraction and relaxation of muscle groups in our body. It has been reported that progressive relaxation techniques, which are applied in many chronic diseases and procedures, improve symptoms and disease parameters reported by individuals, especially pain, anxiety, and stress. When the literature in the world and Turkey is examined, no study applying progressive relaxation techniques to ulcerative colitis patients has been encountered. It is known that especially stress and anxiety affect the number and severity of flare-ups in ulcerative colitis patients. It is thought that this study will contribute to the self-management behaviors of ulcerative colitis patients in the rare diseases group for the Turkish population and fill the gap in the literature.
The aim of this study is to compare the effect of using different doses of ketamine on producing dysphoric reaction.
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation, demyelination and axon damage. Affecting approximately 2.5 million individuals around the world and seen mostly in young adults, MS can cause different levels of disability in functional activities, cause limitations in social and professional life, and impair quality of life. Multiple sclerosis is thought to be an autoimmune disease that develops on the basis of genetic predisposition and environmental factors. Nutritional habits and physical activity are important environmental factors. These can be effective in the course of MS and change the quality of life. Compatibility of nutrition with the Mediterranean diet and providing adequate physical activity may be beneficial in increasing physical and mental well-being in general, and therefore the quality of life of the person. In our country, there is not enough information about the ongoing nutritional habits and physical activity levels of MS patients in their daily lives, and quality of life studies are limited. Our limited knowledge on these issues narrows the possibility of movement in an area that can be corrected in MS patients and thus have a positive impact on their quality of life. The aim of this study is to determine compliance with the Mediterranean diet, the tendency to use various nutritional supplements, physical activity habits, walking-related problems and quality of life in MS patients and to evaluate whether there is a significant relationship between these parameters.
The goal of this randomize controlled trial determine the effect of the mobile application developed for the care of sick newborns in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit on nurses' perception of nursing diagnoses and care that cannot be met, and to measure the usability of the mobile application. The main questions it aims to answer are; Does the mobile application developed for the care provided in the neonatal intensive care unit have an effect on the perception of nursing diagnoses? Does the mobile application developed for care provided in the neonatal intensive care unit have an impact on "missed nursing care? Participants will be used for 3 months from the developed mobile application. The control group will continue routine nursing care. Researchers will compare the perception of nursing diagnosis and unaffordable nursing care survey at the end of month 1 and month 3. Additionally, the usability of the mobile application will be evaluated by applying the system applicability scale to the experimental group.
It is very important to protect and improve the physical, mental and social health of nurses, especially in the event that nurses frequently encounter patients diagnosed or suspected of COVID-19 and are exposed to the virus for a long time due to the long duration of care, increasing cases and the death of their colleagues. Que et al., 2020). Current researches have made it necessary for nurses to have difficulties in effectively coping with the anxiety experienced in the COVID-19 pandemic, which has affected the whole world, and to apply new effective methods, as their training includes effective coping methods (Feinstein and Church, 2010). There are studies that are effective in reducing stress and anxiety, such as meditation, yoga, and breathing therapies, which are recommended to prevent the increase in stress and anxiety levels that may occur in nurses by evaluating the experienced situations (Labrague et al., 2020; Vieta et al., 2020). In addition to these applications, it is seen that Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) has been increasingly used recently in controlling and reducing anxiety (Hartmann, 2016). EFT is a type of energy-based psychotherapy that combines the components of Western psychology and Eastern medicine, applied to eliminate negative thoughts and feelings and problems related to emotions (İnangil et al., 2020; Church, 2013). Although the EFT technique is used in many different areas today, its effect on the level of anxiety in nurses during the COVID-19 process is not yet known. As a result, to evaluate the effect of EFT, whose positive results have been proven by many studies, on the anxiety level of nurses caring for COVID-19 patients.
