Filter by:Researchers aim to investigate whether individualized preoperative education for patients is beneficial in reducing perioperative anxiety, promoting postoperative recovery, and enhancing postoperative quality of life. The educational content will cover aspects such as the surgery procedure, anesthesia, postoperative pain and anxiety management, recovery time, and any potential required treatments. All participants will be administered a questionnaire before the surgery to evaluate their specific concerns and fears. The intervention group will receive preoperative education through audio-visual materials followed by targeted preoperative counseling, while the control group will receive routine preoperative education.
This study was conducted to determine the effect of the digital mind map technique on the learning of midwifery students. The research will be carried out with Kocaeli University Midwifery 2nd year students. A meeting was held with students regarding extracurricular studies between 12 February and 16 February 2024, which is the beginning of the 2023-2024 academic year academic calendar of Kocaeli University. The research will be completed with 86 students in the mind map method group (n = 43) and the classical method (n = 43) group. Data will be collected through the participant information form, knowledge assessment survey on family planning, and satisfaction assessment survey of the narrative regarding the digital mind map. Three topics determined regarding family planning methods (oral contraceptives, condoms and intrauterine devices) were prepared by the researcher using the digital mind map technique. The participant information form and the knowledge evaluation survey on family planning were administered as a pre-test to the students who accepted the research at the first meeting. The mind map technique was first explained to the mind map method group. The topics were explained to the students in the mind map method group by the researcher and his advisor using the mind map technique and with materials prepared with the digital mind map technique. The classical method was explained to the classical method group by the researcher and his advisor. A posttest will be administered to both groups 1 week after the lecture. Again, 35 days after the lecture, the study will be completed by applying a permanence test to both groups and a student satisfaction survey to the experimental group. After the study, the mind map technique will be explained to all students in the classical method group who have completed the study, and the topics prepared with the digital mind map technique will be explained to the classical method group and reinforced. Statistical analysis of the data obtained as a result of the research will be carried out using the IBM Statistic 22.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA) program. Study data will be collected using appropriate statistical methods and the significance level will be accepted as p<0.05.
Bone quality stands as a crucial determinant impacting the success rate of dental implants, exerting influence on both implant primary stability and the efficacy of osseointegration. While radiographic images can partially reveal bone quality, experienced surgeons often rely on tactile sensation during bone drilling to assess it. Subsequently, based on the diagnosed bone quality, distinct implant designs and surgical protocols have been invented to enhance survival rates. Technological advancements now enable the preoperative design of implant placement through a comprehensive guide, merging CBCT DICOM files with digital oral scanning data. This "fully guided" approach enhances the precision, stability, and safety of implant placement surgery. However, the use of a fully guided surgical guide introduces an additional factor-the friction between the drill and guide-potentially impacting the surgeon's tactile feedback. This study aims to assess the difference in bone quality evaluation by tactile sensation between freehand drilling and drilling with a fully guided surgical guide, using test blocks of different bone density. The discussion will explore the pros and cons of employing a fully guided guide to optimize outcomes in implant treatment.
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women. Reasons such as diagnosing breast cancer at an early stage increases the chances of treatment and survival, and the fact that the masses are largely noticed by the individual themselves, point to the importance of breast self-examination (BSE) . BSE skill is among the nursing skills. When the literature was examined, it was seen that the web-based education method was frequently used for cognitive skills during nursing education, but its use was limited for psychomotor skills training. It was determined that in BSE training, in addition to traditional education, methods such as concept maps and peer-supported education were used, but web-based education methods were not used. It is thought that the study will contribute to the literature in these aspects.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of the education given to individuals undergoing colorectal cancer screening on their attitudes, beliefs and healthy lifestyle behaviors. This study was planned to be conducted as a prospective randomized controlled study in a family health center in Istanbul. The universe of the research; The sample of individuals registered to the family health center will consist of a total of 70 individuals who meet the inclusion criteria for the study. Patient Diagnosis Form, Colorectal Cancer Screening Attitude Belief Scale, Healthy Lifestyle Behavior Scale II will be used to collect data. Data will be collected at the first encounter, 1 month later, 3 months later, pre-test and post-test. In the research, individuals will be divided into two groups: intervention (n = 35) and control (n = 35). Training will be provided to the intervention group.
The aim of this study is to examine the impact of "Funny Scenario-Based Learning and Mind Mapping Methods" on undergraduate students' motivation to learn medical terminology. This research aims to assess the effectiveness of the specified methods in enhancing the English learning motivation of undergraduate students.
Nursing education is composed of both theoretical and practical training that complement each other. The clinical practice environment for students is quite complex and practical applications are highly variable. Practical application areas do not offer effective and equal opportunities to meet the learning and application goals. There are also problems in theoretical education, and current teaching techniques cannot adequately support students' learning. In nursing education, it is recommended to use different teaching methods that strengthen students' skills. One of these methods is virtual reality simulation, which simulates real-life procedures. The investigators's aim in this project is to reveal the effect of the use of immersive virtual reality on the effectiveness of education in surgical nursing education through nursing care offered for a specific surgical procedure. With the laboratory setup, software tool(s), and the self-sufficient employees being able to use the software, via the capabilities gained through this project, it will be possible to carry out various types of virtual reality training activities by different departments of investigator's university without the need for out-sourcing. The investigators's advanced goal in this project is to transfer the nursing care specific to frequently applied surgical interventions to the immersive virtual reality environment.
The aim of the study was to examine the effect of counselling and follow-up after education on the risks and prevention methods of breast cancer on early diagnosis behaviours and healthy lifestyle behaviours. The population of the study will consist of female administrative staff working at Mersin University. The sample of the study will consist of 160 people. A total of 160 personnel determined by randomisation will be divided into group A (study) and group B (control) formed by the independent researcher in the computer environment. All participants will be given a one-hour training on breast cancer and will be practised with a model as well as a presentation. Group A will be counselled for 6 months after the training and a reminder message will be sent via SMS on Monday every week as "Check your modifiable risk factors for breast cancer" and their feedback will be received. In group B, no additional application will be made except for the training. The data of the study will be collected before and 6 months after the training by using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, Breast Cancer Early Diagnosis Behaviours Form, Counselling Form and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviours Scale II. The data obtained from the study will be analysed in a computer environment. Number, percentage, mean and standard deviation will be used as descriptive statistics in the evaluation of the data.
This research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of simulation training on the acquisition of self-awareness and empathy skills in nursing students.
The term sexual (SD) dysfunction covers conditions that prevent people from having a satisfactory sex life. SD is a frequent and sometimes debilitating complication of mental illness and a known adverse reaction to psycho-pharmacological treatment. SD is also associated with diabetes, a common somatic comorbidity in psychiatric patients. SD is associated with both reduced quality-of-life and reduced treatment adherence, yet SD is far too rarely addressed between the patient and the healthcare professional in clinical consultations. The purpose of the study is to investigate whether targeted education of patients with schizophrenia and diabetes/prediabetes and/or their healthcare professionals in causes and management of SD: - Increases the number of systematic examinations of sexual side effects, - Causes changes in the psycho-pharmacological treatment, and - Reduces the severity or perception of sexual side effects. The study is a multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with four arms, in which the educational intervention is provided to patients, healthcare professionals, or both groups. The effect of the educational intervention is compared to a non-educated control group. The study is expected to include 192 patients recruited from 16 assertive community treatment centers evenly distributed in four Danish regions. The study is part of an interdisciplinary project named SECRET. The educational intervention was developed in an ethnographic pre-study incorporating stakeholder engagement. Parallel to the present RCT, an ethnographic field study will be carried out to broaden the perspective on the effects of the intervention.
