Filter by: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.

PP plan, coordinate and evaluate the nursing carried out. In the further course, an examination between the project ICU and another ICU without PP with a focus on thoracic and cardiovascular surgery (surgical ICU) is to be carried out. The primary goal of this pilot study is to test the feasibility of a large-scale RCT with patient-related outcomes.
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.
