Corona Virus - 19 Disease (COVID-19), caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), first appeared in Wuhan city of Hubei province of China and spread rapidly, causing a pandemic. In the period from the first emergence of the disease to the present, 336,790,193 people have been infected and 5,560,718 people have died. Considering the severity of the disease, some quarantine measures should be applied, as in many infectious diseases, among the first measures taken worldwide to prevent the spread of the virus.It has been suggested in a limited number of studies conducted in the last two years that climatic conditions may be among the main factors affecting the spread of SARS-CoV-2. However, there is no consensus on the effects of factors such as temperature, humidity, and wind on the spread of the disease, and there are conflicting results. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the rate of spread of COVID-19, the rate of intensive care hospitalization and fatality, and weather conditions.

Premenstrual syndrome is a cyclical disorder characterized by physical and emotional symptoms that appear in the late luteal phase of the menstrual cycle and subside within a few days with the onset of menstruation. Non-pharmacological methods should be recommended first to women who experience PMS symptoms. For this purpose, it is planned to apply foot bath to university students with premenstrual syndrome. The study was planned as a randomized controlled single-blind study. The universe of the research will be female students studying at Ordu University Faculty of Education in the 2021-2022 academic year. In the first stage of the study, female students who are 18 years of age and older and who voluntarily agree to participate in the research will be taken without making a sample selection. Considering the possibility of data loss during the research process, it was planned to work on 39 intervention and 39 control groups, including a total of 78 women In the collection of data; Personal Information Form, Premenstrual Syndrome Scale (PMSS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), SF-36 Quality of Life Scale will be used. PSQI and SF-36 Quality of Life Scale will be applied to students in the intervention group. The foot bath will be applied for 3 months, starting 7-10 days before the menstrual cycle, that is, in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle. Students will be asked to fill out the Footbath Monitoring Form in order to assess whether they have taken a footbath. Those who apply foot bath at least 7 times will be included in the study. In case of less than seven students, the student will be excluded from the research and the new student who meets the criteria will be included in the research. At the end of each cycle, PMSÖ, PSQI and SF-36 will be administered to the students by the researcher. When the students in the Control Group are determined, PSQI and SF-36 will be applied by the researcher, and then PMSÖ, PSQI and SF-36 will be applied at the end of each cycle.
It is planned to determine the effect of music during Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) examination on pain, comfort and physiological parameters in preterm infants. This is single-center, randomized controlled trial, double blind, parallel. Hypotheses: H1: The music applied during the ROP examination has an effect on the Revised Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP-R) score of the preterm infant. H2: The music applied during the ROP examination has an effect on the Preterm Infant Comfort Scale (PMI) score of the preterm infant. H3: Music applied during the ROP examination has an effect on the physiological parameters (peak heart rate, O2 saturation) of the preterm infant. H4: The music applied during the ROP examination has an effect on the crying time of the preterm infant during the procedure. Method: The study will be performed with preterm infants (n=28) hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital. Premature infants to be included in the study will be assigned to two study groups using the block randomization method created in the computer environment according to their gestational age, gender, birth weight. The data in the study were will be collected using the Questionaire Form for Preterm Newborns and Their Parents, Physiological Parameters Observation Form, Revised-Premature Infant Pain Profile (PIPP-R), Premature Infant Comfort Scale (PICS), Pulse Oximeter, Music CD, Music box, Video camera, decibel meter, tripod. Data will be collected by researcher ABÇ. Infants who meet the criteria for inclusion in the study will be selected from the infants who are planned to an ROP examination, and written and verbal consent will be obtained from the families by explaining the purpose of the study. Questionaire Form for Preterm Newborns and Their Parents will be obtained from the nurse observation form and patient files. Four minutes before the ROP, the infant will be monitored and physiological parameters will be recorded, and three minutes before the ROP, the experimental group will start to listen to music (Video recordings will be evaluated by three experts, PIPP-R and PICS). The music recording will continue to be played during the ROP examination for music group. No application will be made for the control group other than the clinical routines.
Investigators want to find numerical determination of the degree of anatomical anterior or posterior flexion of the uterus (uterocervical angle) at the intersection of both lines using a protractor, provided that straight lines are drawn from the middle of the cervical canal and the middle of the endometrial canal in cases where the intrauterine device is found to have dislocated and and cases with no dislocation. Investigators will also measure uterus size, uterine width, cervical canal length, endometrial canal length, endometrial canal width and compare the results in both groups.
ABSTRACT The Effect of the Training on Adaptation to Treatment Provided to Hemodialysis Patients According to the Neuman Systems Theory on Self-Esteem and Perceived Social Support Aim: The present study was conducted to determine the effect of the training provided to hemodialysis patients according to Neuman Systems Theory on self-esteem and perceived social support in pretest-posttest comparison semi-experimental fashion. Material and Method: The study population consisted of 108 individuals. The sampling consisted of 84 subjects, 42 of whom constituted the Study Group and 42 of whom constituted the Control Group. The study was conducted in two dialysis centers between 15.04.2017 and 15.10.2017. In the study, the data were collected with Patient Identification Form, Neuman Systems Evaluation Form, Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory, Social Support Perceived from Family and Friends Scale and Hemodialysis Stressor Scale. In the Study Group, the training was repeated to the individuals with the training book "Let Us Learn Hemodialysis", which was prepared by the researcher, after the one-to-one training in houses in line with the Neuman Systems Model. SPSS 20 program was used to evaluate the data. Descriptive statistical methods (number, percentage), chi-square test, paired t test were used to evaluate the data.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of two different cognitive-behavioral combined programs, including video games or kaleidoscope, on the pain, fear and anxiety experienced by children who apply for therapeutic or diagnostic venous blood collection, and their parents' satisfaction levels. In addition, this research aims to create a holistic approach to child health due to the evaluation of both children and parents. The population of the research will be children aged 8-10 who come to the Children's Blood Collection Unit of Karaman Training and Research Hospital between February 2022 and March 2022. The sample of the study will consist of 96 children and their parents who applied to the Blood Collection Unit on the specified dates, met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study. The pediatric blood collection unit provides service between 08:00 and 16:00 on weekdays. In order to determine the number of samples, power analysis was performed using the G*Power (v3.1.9) program. It was planned to carry out the research with a total of 96 children and their parents, 32 in each group, considering possible case losses during the research period. Evaluation of the data will be done in the computer environment with the SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) 22.0 package program. Percentage distributions, mean, standard deviation, chi-square test, analysis of variance will be used in the analysis of the data. In addition, the variance of the groups will be examined with the Levene test in order to make further analysis. In cases where the variance is equal, Bonferroni analysis will be used in post hoc advanced analyses, and Dunnett T3 analysis will be used in cases where the variance is not equal. The research findings will be evaluated at the 95% confidence interval, at the p<0.05 significance level.
