Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is an endocrine and metabolic disease that is characterized by hyperglycemia, develops microvascular and macrovascular complications, and requires chronic and continuous care. is a disease. According to IDF 2019 data, it is predicted that the number of diabetics in the world, which was 463 million in 2019, will reach 700 million in 2045 with an increase of 51%. The global prevalence of diabetes between the ages of 20-79 in 2019 is 9.3%, and it is estimated to increase to 10.2% in 2030 and 10.9% in 2045. Our country, on the other hand, has the highest prevalence with a rate of 11.1% among European countries. According to the IDF 2019 Diabetes Atlas data, 6.6 million people with diabetes live in our country as of 2019, and it is estimated that this rate will reach 10 million by 2045. American Diabetes Association (American Diabetes Association) and American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists) to achieve the goals of treatment and care in individuals with diabetes; emphasizes the need for regulation of nutrition, regulation of physical activity, regulation of pharmacological treatment, diabetes education, continuous monitoring and health controls. Individuals with diabetes should receive diabetes self-management education and support when necessary. Diabetes self-management is defined as the process of facilitating the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for the individual's self-care. Individuals with diabetes who are competent and skilled in self-management can improve their health outcomes. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) defines diabetes self-management education as a process that begins at the diagnosis stage and continues, based on an individual-centered approach and making joint decisions to facilitate the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for the self-care of diabetes patients. The purpose of diabetes self-management is for diabetics to develop new skills and behaviors that support self-management goals, and to form habits. The general goals of diabetes self-management education are to support individuals diagnosed with diabetes to make conscious decisions, solve problems, perform self-care behaviors, and improve their metabolic results, health status and quality of life. Diabetes patients need knowledge, skills and motivation to strengthen their diabetes by providing self-management. The nurse helps the patient to adapt to the disease and achieve the ability to perform self-care by counseling and training individuals. Coaching sessions are used to strengthen self-management and diabetes in diabetes. The coach is the person who provides the necessary motivation to maximize the strengths of the client, to ensure that the potentials are fully used through continuous education, to develop new skills and activities to be more effective, to be ready for new responsibilities and to manage himself. Life Coaching with Diabetes is based on the basic principles and principles of professional life coaching practices (ICF-International Coaching Federation), aiming at behavioral change in approaches related to diabetes lifestyle. Life coaching with diabetes is to give practical applications to people who have been diagnosed with diabetes in order to gain necessary changes in life through coaching. 2. Problem and Sub-Problems H0: Diabetes life coaching given to individuals with Type 2 Diabetes has no effect on glycemic control, diabetes strengthening and self-management. H1: Diabetes life coaching given to individuals with Type 2 Diabetes has an effect on glycemic control, strengthening diabetes and self-management. 3. Aims and Expected Benefits of the Research This study was planned as a control group intervention study to determine the effect of diabetes coaching on glycemic control, diabetes strengthening and self-management in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes. Expected benefits: - Developing appropriate self-care activities (physical activity, medical nutrition, drug management, avoiding risky behaviors, etc.) by improving the self-management skills of the individual with diabetes, - Individuals with diabetes become self-managed in their self-care practices, - Ensuring metabolic control of the diabetic individual - Developing decision-making and problem-solving skills of individuals with diabetes, - Promoting diabetes coaching in the nursing profession and increasing its visibility and spreading diabetes coaching.
Today, surgical applications are used to solve many health problems. In order for the surgical intervention to take place, anesthesia applications are often required. Complications such as sore throat, thirst and nausea and vomiting may occur as a result of trauma, local irritation and inflammation of the airway mucosa during anesthesia and tracheal intubation. These complications are in the postoperative period; It may cause delayed oral fluid intake, prolonged dehydration, oral odour, and increased risk of aspiration, hematoma and wound dehiscence due to retching and vomiting, all of which may lead to delayed discharge and increased cost. Aromatherapy, one of the non-pharmacological applications, is frequently applied in reducing postoperative complications and its effectiveness is stated. In this study, the aromatic solution applied after the surgery; It was planned to examine the effect on sore throat, thirst, nausea-vomiting. In addition, the multimodal synergistic effect of lavender oil and ginger oil used in the aromatic solution to be prepared will be utilized. As a result of this study, the effectiveness of the aromatic solution application to be applied to the patients in the postoperative period and the benefits and benefits of the patient's recovery process will be determined. Thus, effective application can be made for the entire postoperative period. It is thought that this study to be conducted will be a guide for future studies on the patient group.
Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), a widely used method to improve mental state and sleep quality, was developed by Kabat-Zinn in 1970. The meditation of MBSR is effective in regulating patients' emotions, leading to reduced stress, pain, and psychological symptoms. Studies have demonstrated that MBSR has a positive impact on multiple psychological and physical symptoms in a variety of cancers. On this basis, investigators found that VR treatment can also help patients relax, and it has been widely used in cancer symptom relief in recent years. VR treatment involves using headset devices that fully restrict the vision field to content displayed inside the headset screen; As a treatment modality, VR provides a unique environment comprising 3D visually immersive experiences that are enriched with stereo sounds and elements such as rich colors and scenic environments that enhance elicitation of desired states of arousal and affect. Within the therapeutic context, VR may be flexibly designed and tailored to address the needs of specific conditions (eg, anxiety, depression, pain) auditory perception is not fully restricted, though the corresponding device-delivered auditory content commands attention.

To determine the effect of the imagery technique used in the Nursing Fundamentals course on the self-effectiveness-efficacy and anxiety levels of students. This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial. The research was completed with a total of 85 students, 40 of which were in the intervention group and 45 in the control group. The imagery technique was applied to the intervention group once a week for 4 weeks before the laboratory practice lesson. This study are self-efficacy-sufficiecy and state and trait anxiety levels obtained from the questionnaire before and after the application. While there was no difference in the mean scores of self-efficacy-sufficiecy and trait anxiety of the students before and after the application of the imagery technique (p=0.515, p=0.456), it was determined that the mean score of state anxiety of the students in the intervention group decreased significantly after the application (p=0.044). Academic nurses should work on increasing self-efficacy and reducing the level of trait anxiety, in addition to the supportive imagery technique during training.
Children experience numerous painful experiences from nursing procedures: peripheral venous access placement is the main cause of procedural pain. As much as pharmacological and nonpharmacological tools are known, their application during venipuncture is not systematic by children's hospitals. Among pharmacological tools, the Equimolar Mixture of Nitrogen Protoxide and Oxygen (EMONO) provides adequate protection from procedural pain through inhalation of the gas mixture at least 3 minutes before the procedure. Literature reports that the combination of nonpharmacological distractive tools and pharmacological interventions increases their analgesic effect. The aim of the study is to measure children's cooperation during procedure (primary outcome), pain perception and side effects when EMONO is combined with audiovisuals compared with EMONO alone in peripheral venous access placement.
