Filter by:The study is a randomised controlled experimental study conducted to examine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises on dyspnea and comfort level in individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The study was conducted between January and August 2023 in the Internal Medicine Clinic of Izmir Urla State Hospital. Stratified and block randomisation method was used in the study and 42 patients, 21 intervention group and 21 control group, were completed. Patients in the intervention group received 30-minute progressive relaxation exercises for 6 weeks. Patients in the control group did not receive any intervention other than standard care practices. The data of the study were collected by face-to-face interview method using the Descriptive Information Form, Medical Research Council Dyspnea Scale, General Comfort Scale-Short Form and Patient Follow-up Form. Descriptive statistics, Shapiro Wilk test, Levene's test, Mauchly's W test, independent sample T test, Mann Whitney U test, dependent sample t test, Wilcoxon Signed Ranks test, Friedman test, Benferoni test and Fisher's Exact test were used to analyse the data obtained from the study. It was determined that the mean dyspnea level scores of the patients in the intervention group at week 6 were lower than the control group and this difference between the groups was statistically significant (p<0.05). It was determined that the decrease in the mean comfort level scores of the patients in the intervention group according to the follow-up periods was statistically significant (p<0.05). According to the results of the study, progressive relaxation exercises can be recommended as an effective nursing intervention to provide dyspnea management in patients with COPD.

This study is planned to determine the impact of education provided with the flipped learning model on nursing students' thorax and heart knowledge and self-directed learning skills. This study adopted a pretest-posttest openlabel randomized controlled trial. The population of the study will consist of second-year students studying at a Nursing Department of a university in Turkey during the 2023-2024 academic year.According to the power analysis, it was determined that the study needs to be conducted with a total of 100 students, with 50 students in the experimental group and 50 students in the control group.The experimental group participants were trained using the flipped learning model.For the control group, the topic will be delivered using only traditional teaching methods.The data for the study will be collected using the "Introductory Characteristics Form," the "Thoracic and Cardiac Examination Information Evaluation Form," and the "Self-Regulated Learning Skills Scale (SRLSS)."The collected data will be analyzed using SPSS 15 software.
This study is planned as a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of education provided through the flipped learning model on students' levels of knowledge and self-efficacy regarding stoma care. The research will be conducted on 100 first-year nursing students between 05.2024-06.2024. Randomization will be ensured for students who meet the inclusion criteria, and they will be divided into two random groups: the experimental group (n=50) and the control group (n=50). All participating students will be administered the "Introductory Characteristics Form," "Stoma Care Knowledge Assessment Form (pre-test)," and "General Self-Efficacy Scale (pre-test)." For students in the experimental group, digital materials required for preparedness for the course based on the flipped learning model (such as course presentation materials and demonstration videos) will be prepared by the researchers. After the implementation and 4 weeks later, the 'Stoma Care Knowledge Assessment Form (post-test)' and the 'General Self-Efficacy Scale (post-test)' will be administered online. All students in the control group will be administered the 'Introductory Characteristics Form,' the 'Stoma Care Knowledge Assessment Form (pre-test),' and the 'General Self-Efficacy Scale (pre-test).' Subsequently, stoma care will be provided to the control group solely through traditional teaching methods. No additional resources will be provided. After the implementation and 4 weeks later, the 'Stoma Care Knowledge Assessment Form (post-test)' and the 'General Self-Efficacy Scale (post-test)' will be administered online.
One of the leading elements in providing safe healthcare is to maintain employee health and safety. Hazards in the working environments of healthcare professionals threaten employee safety and cause errors in patient care. In this case, healthcare professionals working in a safe environment means that patients receive service in a safe environment. Safety climate is the perception of employees of the policies, procedures and practices that exist to ensure safety in the workplace and is an important element for the formation of a safety culture in the workplace. There are many factors that determine the perception of safety climate. These factors can be listed as the type and size of the organization, the occupational risks that employees are exposed to at work, the way occupational safety is managed, the gender, seniority of employees, and their position in the organization.
Purpose: This study aimed to examine the effect of health education material developed by nursing students in gynecological health and disease nursing on students' teaching material motivation and material design self-efficacy belief. Method: The study was conducted as a prospective randomized controlled study. n=86 (43=control, 43=intervention) students who took the Women's Health and Diseases Nursing course at Bartın University Faculty of Health Sciences Nursing Department between 30.10.2023-20.01.2024 and volunteered to participate in the study were randomized. It was conducted in two groups: intervention and control.In the research, data will be collected with the Data Collection Form prepared by reviewing the literature, Instructional Material Motivation Scale and Material Design Self-Efficacy Belief Scale. Descriptive statistics, Student t-test, Mann-Whitney U Test, Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Pearson correlation tests will be used to evaluate the data.
This type of study is a randomized controlled trial. The aim is to contribute to the literature by comparing the effects of heart yoga on the depression level, sleep and quality of life of patients who do and do not do heart yoga. The main elements it aims to answer are: - Heart yoga applied to patients who have undergone heart surgery improves their sleep quality compared to those who have not. - Heart yoga applied to patients who have undergone heart surgery reduces the level of depression compared to those who have not. - Heart yoga applied to patients who have undergone heart surgery increases the quality of life compared to those who have not. Patients who accept the study will practice heart yoga simultaneously with heart yoga videos via an online link every other day for 12 weeks after heart surgery. Researchers will compare intervention and control groups to see if there are any effects on sleep quality, depression level, and quality of life.
This study will be investigated the effects of facilitated tucking, ShotBlocker and combined facilitated tucking and ShotBlocker methods on procedural pain, crying time and duration of the procedure during Hepatitis B vaccine administration in healthy term infants.
The goal of this is randomized controlled study to examine the effect of early mobilization on sleep, physiological parameters, and length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). The hypothesis are: Hypothesis I: Early mobilization positively affects the sleep quality of patients. Hypothesis II: Early mobilization positively affects the physiological parameters of patients (respiratory rate, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain). Hypothesis III: Early mobilization shortens the length of stay of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Early mobilization will begin in the experimental group after sedation is discontinued within the first 12 hours and its effects disappear. In early mobilization, in the evaluation of in-bed mobilization, physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be evaluated and recorded in the supine, semi-fowler position. In out-of-bed mobilization, the patient's physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be determined and recorded before mobilization and when the head is in a 45˚ upward position. Surgical wounds and dressing areas, if any, are protected, drains are identified, care is taken not to remove equipment such as urinary catheters or nasogastric tubes, when the patient is seated on the edge of the bed with the help of a nurse, when he/she is stood up next to the bed with the support of the nurse, when he/she is made to sit in a chair next to the bed and when he/she is in a chair. While sitting, 1st minute, 5th minute, 10th minute respiratory rate, sPO2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature values and pain levels will be recorded and these data will be evaluated on their own. During mobilization, if the patient develops chest pain, arrhythmia, hypertension (systolic pressure>160 mmHg), or hypotension (systolic pressure<90 mmHg), tachypnea, or hypoxia, a break will be taken and the physician will be consulted. The same procedures will be repeated during the mobilization of the patient in the first 24-36 hours and the necessary records will be made by the researcher. Control Group: After admission to the Cardiovascular Surgery ICU, the type, purpose and implementation process of the study will be explained to the patients, and a routine/standard postoperative mobilization procedure will be applied to the patients in the control group. Accordingly, patients will be mobilized in the first 24 hours after surgery, and in the evaluation of in-bed mobilization, their physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be evaluated and recorded in the supine, semi-fowler position. In out-of-bed mobilization, the patient's physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be determined and recorded before mobilization and when the head is in a 45˚ upward position. Again, arterial blood gas monitoring of the patients in the control group will be performed at maximum 4-hour intervals, and respiratory parameters will be frequently evaluated and recorded.
