Clinical Trial Summary

This study was planned as a randomized controlled experiment. It was aimed to examine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue. The sociodemographic information of the participants will be collected with the 'Personal Information Form' and their fatigue levels with the 'Fatigue Severity Scale'. SPSS 22.0 package program will be used in the analysis of the data. p<0.05 will be considered significant.


Clinical Trial Description

Intensive care nurses experience high levels of fatigue due to the physically and mentally demanding tasks they undertake. For example; Conditions such as prolonged seizures, difficulty sleeping, and heavy workload trigger this fatigue. One of the non-pharmacological interventions used in the management of fatigue experienced by intensive care nurses is progressive relaxation exercise (PGE). PGE involves voluntary, continuous and systematic stretching and subsequent relaxation of various muscle groups and was first described by Jacobson in 1938. The purpose of PGE is to focus attention on skeletal muscles and relax the whole body. While doing the exercise, the individual feels the difference between tension and relaxation in the muscles. Thus, when needed, it learns to relax in order to reduce the tension in the muscles. In the literature, it has been shown that PGE reduces the severity of fatigue caused by different chronic diseases. In this context, in this study, it is aimed to examine the effect of progressive relaxation exercise applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue and to contribute to the literature and to the fatigue management of nurses in line with the results obtained. ;
