Filter by:Due to the separation of the mother and the baby after the cesarean section, initiation of breastfeeding by the mother of the newborn in the first hour of life is delayed. The rate of cesarean section in Turkey has increased to 52%, according to the 2019 data of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the rate of cesarean section has increased to 31.7% in the world and up to 65% in the USA. It has been reported in the literature that cesarean deliveries are performed with general, spinal and epidural anesthesia types, and the Apgar scores of newborns after cesarean section performed with spinal and epidural anesthesia are high. In this context, the nurse has a key role in initiating and maintaining breastfeeding after early SSC between the mother and the newborn within the first hour following the cesarean section performed with spinal anesthesia. In the literature, there are studies reporting that skin-to-skin contact applied after normal delivery increases the sucking success of newborns, the successful breastfeeding rate, and the rate of exclusive breastfeeding. There are studies examining the effect of early skin-to-skin contact applied after cesarean section on the suckling success of the newborn and only breastfeeding. Breastfeeding self-efficacy refers to a woman's confidence in her ability to breastfeed her baby. It is reported in the literature that skin-to-skin contact and only breastfeeding education have an effect on breastfeeding self-efficacy.
The aim of this project is to determine the effect of pushing with saline technique on the success of peripheral IV catheter placement in a pediatric hematology and oncology sample. This research is a randomized controlled experimental study.
The goal of this intervention study is to compare two different simulation modalities (standardized patient and manikin-based) in nursing student education. The main aim is to determine the effect of new scenarios on cultural awareness levels in two different types of simulation modalities and to determine the effect of new scenarios on social determinants of health knowledge levels in two different types of simulation modalities. Participants will assign to two groups and will attend simulation sessions.
Although pregnancy is a natural process, it is a period in which some bio-physiological changes are experienced. These changes cause low back pain by affecting the musculoskeletal system as well as the endocrine, cardiovascular and renal systems. Pregnancy-related low back pain is defined as recurrent pain in the lumbopelvic region lasting more than one week. It can manifest itself in pregnancy as low back pain, lumbar pain, pelvic pain and lumbopelvic pain where both are present. In order to cope with low back pain in pregnancy and to increase the quality of life, low back pain should be evaluated in antenatal and postnatal follow-ups. Risk factors should be examined, women in the risk group should be identified, their low back pain experience should be questioned, prevention and coping strategies and the effect of low back pain on their quality of life should be evaluated. Healthy lifestyle programs should be developed to help prevent low back pain and develop coping strategies for pregnant women with low back pain.
To explore the effect of the Stoma Mobile application-based training method on the psychosocial adjustment, self-efficacy, and development of peristomal skin complications in individuals with a stoma. Quasi-experimental study with a post-test control group. Patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly selected. While the experimental group (n=30) received training with the Stoma Mobile application, the control group (n=30) received training with the booklet. Stoma compliance, self-efficacy level, and the presence of complications were compared in both groups in the first and third months after discharge. H11: Individuals who receive stoma care training via STOMA-M will have a higher adaptation to stomas than individuals who receive stoma care training via a booklet. H12: The SE levels of individuals who receive stoma care training via STOMA-M will be higher than those who receive stoma care training via a booklet. H13: Peristomal skin complications of individuals who receive stoma care training via STOMA-M will be lower than those who receive stoma care training via a booklet. The population of the study included patients who had a stoma for the first time, were in a university hospital in Istanbul between December 2020 and December 2021, and who were 18 years of age and older, literate, without any physical and psychological disabilities, able to use smartphones, and willing to participate in the study. Patients who were in the same room or underwent a urostomy were not included in the study. The experimental group using the Stoma Health Mobile application had higher psychosocial adjustment and self-efficacy scores than the control group, and the peristomal skin lesion complication rate was lower than that of the control group. Social self-efficacy positively affects stoma compliance, and the Stoma Mobile application positively affects the level of social self-efficacy and adaptation of ostomates to the stoma
Transient tachypnea of newborn (TTN) causes 42.5%-60% of non-infectious respiratory distress cases in newborns, it is seen in only 1% of all newborns. In the etiology of TTN, it results from the inability to effectively clear the fetal lung fluid immediately after birth. The most known risk factors of TTN are; prematurity, malpresentation, abnormal birth, premature rupture of the membrane, meconium aspiration, fetal distress, multiple pregnancy, male gender, and low Apgar score. TTN; It typically occurs in term and late preterm newborns within the first two hours of life. For the diagnosis of TTN, respiratory rate >60/min in the first 6-12 hours shows signs of groaning and retraction and improve spontaneously within a few days with 40% or less supportive oxygen therapy. However, in some rare cases, prolongation of symptoms, noninvasive mechanical ventilation support [nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP), nonsynchronized nasal intermittent mandatory ventilation (NIMV)] and in some cases invasive (intubated) mechanical ventilation may be required. Reducing pain and stress in mechanically ventilated infants is important for the prevention of complications that may occur in the future-early period and for recover process. While providing standard health care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), sources of pain and stress should be identified and controlled. It is necessary to minimize the interventions that will cause pain and stress and to ensure that the newborn copes with the pain. In order to relieve pain and stress, various pharmacological (opioid, non-opioid analgesics) and non-pharmacological (breast milk, pacifier, kangaroo care, flexion posture, swaddling etc.) within the framework of family-centered care and individualized developmental care methods should be used. Pain control is a priority in neonatal nursing care, and it is the nurses; responsibility to select and implement a non-pharmacological intervention to reduce the level of pain. A limited number of studies have been found examining the effects of therapeutic touch and mothers voice on pain and comfort level in newborns, as a behavioral intervention, on relieving stress of body positioning in premature newborns who underwent nCPAP. There was no study found that the swaddling method applied during the procedure in patients followed up on nCPAP had an effect on reducing the stress level of newborns.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of nursing interventions based on Orem Self-Care Deficiency Theory on symptom management, care needs and quality of life in cancer patients who underwent immunotherapy. Method: The research was planned as a randomized controlled trial. The research is planned to be carried out in the Medical Oncology unit of the Health Sciences University Antalya Training and Research Hospital. It is planned to be done with 58 patients, 29 experimental and 29 control groups. Based on Orem Self-Care Deficit Theory; face-to-face patient education, giving patient education booklet, preparation of symptom management card, face-to-face and telephone counseling initiatives were planned. Patient Description Form, Supportive Care Needs Scale-Short Form, Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale, European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Scale and Self-Care Strength Scale will be used to collect data.
It was aimed to investigate the effect of Twenty first century (21st) century skills on the clinical decision making of nursing students. Within the scope of the cross sectional study, answers to the following research questions will be sought: - What are the 21st century skill levels of nursing students? - Are nursing students' 21st century skills affected by their sociodemographic characteristics? - What are the clinical decision-making levels of nursing students? - Are the clinical decision-making levels of nursing students affected by their sociodemographic characteristics? - Do nursing students' 21st century skills affect their decision-making levels?
This study was conducted to examine the effect of reminiscence therapy on the functionality of older adults aged 65 and over living in nursing homes.
Nurses working by shifts under intense stress and pressure and using complicated technological products- undergo fatigue and attention deficit with the effect of the many negative factors caused by work setting. This threatens patient and staff safety as well as leads to communicational problems, work absenteeism, lowered motivation, inability to control stress and poor work performance and productivity among nurses as well. In this sense; laughter therapy and mindfulness practices may help nurses cope with these problems because some experimental studies proved that both methods showed many benefits in different samples. However; no studies in which these two methods were compared among nurses were encountered. Therefore; the study -being in experimental design and randomized controlled trial- will be undertaken with a total of 111 nurses employed at a university hospital -37 nurses allocated to the experimental 1 group, 37 nurses to the experimental 2 group and 37 nurses to the control group-. First; Computer-Based Sustained Attention Test, the Stroop Test Çapa Version, The Chalder Fatigue Scale (CFQ) and Individual Work Performance Questionnaire will be administered to the nurses of the experimental and control groups as a pre-test. Then; nurses of the experimental 1 group will join sessions of laughter therapy (30-45 minutes twice a week for 8 weeks) and nurses of the experimental 2 group will join sessions of mindfulness practices (45-60 minutes twice a week for 8 weeks) for two months. One month later when the sessions are started, a mid test will be administered and soon after the sessions are completed a post test will be administered to the nurses via Computer-Based Sustained Attention Test, the Stroop Test Çapa Version, The Chalder Fatigue Scale (CFQ) and Individual Work Performance Questionnaire. One month later after the post test; a follow-up will be performed using the same tools. As a result; the effect of laughter therapy and mindfulness practices upon nurses' fatigue perceptions, attention and work performance levels will be explored.
