Filter by:Aim: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a hereditary disease. Approximately 5% of the world's population carries trait genes for haemoglobin disorders, mainly, sickle-cell disease and thalassaemia. The incidence of sickle cell disease varies according to different geographical locations. Persons with SCD experience both acute and chronic pain. it is important that nonpharmacological therapies be investigated and used as complements to pharmacological therapies to address and treat both acute and chronic pain for those with SCD. An educational program involving parents with children with SCD can help parents use nonpharmacological methods for their children in reducing pain. The training program allows parents to develop their knowledge of the SCD and the importance of non-pharmacological methods, and may provide parents with the opportunity to develop preventive attitudes towards reducing pain crises. The research has two purposes. The first is to identify the non-pharmacological approaches that parents use to help their children with sickle cell disease in Turkey, Chad. Second, to determine the effectiveness of non-pharmacological approaches given to parents in Turkey, Chad. Method: This study is an experimental research method using a quasi‐experimental design. This study used a pretest and posttest, with a design that is used is the two group pretest-posttest design. The study was conducted on the parents of children with sickle cell disease diagnosed and followed up in the Pediatric Hematology Oncology polyclinics of two hospitals in Chad in Central Africa between September 2015 and February 2016.

Aim: Male circumcision is one of the oldest and most commonly performed surgical procedures in the world and in our country. Circumcision, which concerns such a large population, is a stressful, traumatic, negative experience. Impairment in comfort is a condition in which a child who is scheduled for circumcision operation often suffers. Physical, emotional, sociocultural and environmental factors contribute to the formation of this condition. Comfort Theory is a nursing model that makes it easier for the caregivers to see their problems more systematically and to plan more easily. In the literature review, no studies have been found to determine the effect of nursing care based on Kolcaba Konfors Comfort Theory to the comfort and components of the children and their parents who have undergone circumcision operation. Therefore, this study was needed. In this study, nursing care based on Kolcaba's Comfort Theory, which continues throughout the perioperative period, was applied to children and their parents.

Care was terminated on the 10th day after discharge. The time of the study was approximately 12-14 days for each child and his / her parents. The sample of the study was determined as 120 boys and their parents (60 control each, 60 intervention each).
