Filter by:Purposes: Describe the background information and clinical characteristics of respirator-dependent patients, verify the sleep and comfort effects of respirator-dependent patients whether or not they receive a lavender essential oil warm water foot bath, and compare changes of the sleep, comfort, heartbeat, and blood pressure in respirator-dependent patients before and after receiving a lavender essential oil warm water foot bath.
Purpose of the research: This research was planned to evaluate the effect of breast milk and dextrose application, which are pain relief methods, on the pain and comfort levels of preterm babies who will have an orogastric tube inserted in the 3rd and 4th levels of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Hypotheses: H0: The methods used during orogastric tube insertion do not affect the pain and comfort levels of preterm babies. H1: Preterm babies who are breastfed feel less pain during orogastric tube insertion. H2: Preterm babies given dextrose during orogastric tube insertion feel less pain. H3: The comfort level of preterm babies who are breastfed during orogastric tube insertion is higher. H4: The comfort level of preterm babies given dextrose during orogastric tube insertion is higher. H5: There is a difference between the pain and comfort levels of preterm patients in terms of group, time, and group-time, depending on the intervention applied.
The research will be conducted experimentally in the form of randomized controlled studies to determine the effect of safe swaddling of newborns after bathing on stress and comfort. The population of the research consists of newborns receiving treatment and care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of a State Hospital located in the north of Turkey, and the sample consists of 72 babies who meet the sample selection criteria. Descriptive Characteristics Form, Newborn Stress Scale and Newborn Comfort Behavior Scale were used to collect data. Babies will be bathed in the bathtub and then swaddled. The baby will be placed in the incubator and kept for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the swaddle will be opened quietly and slowly, without disturbing the body posture. Stress and comfort scores will be given by two observers by video recording the babies before bathing, before swaddling and after swaddling.
This study aimed to investigate the impact of the CoolSense method on arteriovenous fistula cannulation pain and the comfort levels of hemodialysis patients.
The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of using gel pillows on the sleep quality and general comfort levels of patients in the preoperative period.The main hypotheses are: H1: 'The sleep quality of patients who use gel pillows in the preoperative period is higher than those who do not use gel pillows' H2: "The general comfort level of the patients who used gel pillows in the preoperative period is higher than those who did not use gel pillows". Participants will be asked to use a gel pillow with a cooling surface the night before the day of surgery. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare patients' control group to see if there is any difference in sleep quality and comfort levels.
In this study, it was aimed to determine the anxiety levels and comfort levels of the patients using stress ball in patients receiving hemodialysis treatment. This study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial. The universe of the study consisted of 156 patients receiving HD treatment at a special hemodialysis center. The study was completed with a total of 63 patients, including 31 people in the intervention group and 32 people in the control group, who met the criteria for inclusion in the study between 27.02.2023 and 27.03.2023. The individual demonstration form was used to collect data, the Visual Analog scale (VAS) for stress level and the hemodialysis comfort scale.
Pain relief interventions in invasive interventions are divided into two pharmacologic methods and non-pharmacologic methods. Nonpharmacologic interventions are an area where nurses can easily demonstrate their independent roles. Especially today, when the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) methods is increasing, nurses are also turning to these methods. Non-pharmacological methods include listening to white noise, non-nutritive sucking, aromatherapy applications, placing the baby on the mother's lap, changing position, rocking, touching, distracting, listening to music, watching cartoons, singing, breastfeeding and giving sucrose solution with breast milk, giving toys and smelling mother odour. This study was planned to determine the effect of the therapeutic toy used during IV catheter placement, which is the most common invasive intervention in the Neonatal Care Unit where a newborn baby is hospitalized, on the comfort level, crying time and physiological parameters of the newborn.
Children are a particularly vulnerable population to medication mistakes, and it is critical to improve the self-efficacy, clinical comfort, and worry levels of student nurses who will care with them. As a result, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of postgraduate nursing students' and clinical nurses' mentoring practice on pediatric nursing students' self-efficacy in pediatric medication administration, clinical comfort, and worry levels. The nurse mentoring group finished the study with 70 students, while the peer mentoring group (postgraduate nursing students) completed the study with 73 students, for a total of 143 students. For data collection, the "Participant Information Form," the "Medication Administration Self-Efficacy Scale in Children for Nursing Students," and the "Pediatric Nursing Students Clinical Comfort and Worry Tool" were utilized. The data is still being analyzed.
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of warm water foot baths on comfort, fatigue, and dialysis symptoms in patients undergoing hemodialysis. This study was conducted as a randomized controlled trial. Data were collected with a total of 58 patients,31 in the intervention group and 27 in the placebo group. The data in the study is collected using the intervention and control group informed volunteer Form, Patient Demonstration Form, foot Bath Application Monitoring Chart, fatigue VAS Scale Form, dialysis Symptom Index, and Hemodialysis Comfort Scale.
The aim of this trial study is to identify the effect of S-VR on comfort and self-efficacy of symptom management in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Additional objectives of this study include: (a) identifying the effect of S-VR on anxiety in chemotherapy patients; (b) identifying the effect of S-VR on pain intensity of chemotherapy patients; (c) identifying the effect of S-VR on vital signs (pulse and blood pressure) of chemotherapy patients. Participants is randomly assigned into two group: SVR intervention group and control group. In the SVR group, participants will use a VR device (head-mounted display/HMD) with 360-degree natural panoramic and music relaxation contents. Control group will receive standard care in the form of guided imagery leaflet. The research will adhere to the ethical standards outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki and its subsequent amendments, as well as the protocol under reviewed by Medical and Health Research Ethics Committee (MHREC) Faculty of Medicine, Public Health and Nursing Universitas Gadjah Mada - Dr. Sardjito General Hospital Yogyakarta (Approval Number: KE/FK/0301/EC/2023). A formal informed consent will be obtained from all study participants. Validation number: 63f81182672f3 (http://komisietik.fk.ugm.ac.id/validasi)
