Filter by:Open heart surgery method is generally used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Sternotomy is the process of opening the sternum. After sternotomy, individuals experience ongoing pain in the anterior thorax. Despite developing pain methods and treatments, individuals undergoing cardiovascular surgery suffer from pain that cannot be managed well. Patients undergoing cardiac surgery experience severe pain for the first 48 hours and are in intensive care during this period. Pain is the most important stress factor for intensive care patients. The nurse and health care team should play a key role and take an active role in the management and evaluation of pain. However, there are not enough studies trying to define the role of the nurse in the management of postoperative pain. Protocols are used to provide pain management and routine pain assessment in intensive care units. The use of protocols provides maximum care to the patient, while reducing the cost. It also ensures the patient's participation in the treatment. While protocols ensure that practices are converted into evidence-based ones, they also prevent disruptions in treatment. As a result, management of the pain experiences of patients with sternotomy who underwent open heart surgery in the intensive care unit with the developed protocol; It will guide the improvement and development of pain management. It is thought that the protocol will address the pain of individuals undergoing open heart surgery in a holistic way. In addition, no study has been found in the literature that includes the development of a protocol for the pain of intensive care patients undergoing open heart surgery. For this reason, it is thought that the study will shed light on the literature by being a resource in the management and improvement of pain.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of an incubator cover on the vital signs of term and preterm neonates hospitalized in a neonatal intensive care unit. Methods: 91 neonates presenting to a neonatal intensive care unit who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Vital signs of neonates were measured with and without incubator cover. Measurements were performed three times (0th, 15th, and 30th minute).
The goal of this prospective, randomized controlled study was to inverstigate the effect of humor on pain and in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) during IV treatment. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - to compare the effect of humor on pain between two groups of patients with RA who watched a comedy movie (intervention group) and who did not (control group) during IV biological therapy. - to compare the effect of humor on anxiety between two groups of patients with RA who watched a comedy movie (intervention group) and who did not (control group) during IV biological therapy. Participants in the intervention group watched a comedy movie during routine IV biologic treatment in the chemotherapy unit, while the control group received only routine IV biologic treatment as a usual care.
Existing measures to prevent intraventricular hemorrhage in preterm infants include preventing premature delivery, pre-natal administration of corticosteroid, active treatment of chorioamnionitis, and improvement of postnatal resuscitation and transfer process. Many overseas studies show that nursing care can reduce the risk of intraventricular hemorrhage and death, but there is no such study in Taiwan. Objective: to explore the effect of bundle nursing care on prevention of IVH in premature infants.
This research will be carried out in order to determine the effect of the flower pressure activity applied to the elderly in the nursing home on the anxiety levels of the elderly.
Objective: The objective of the present research is to compare the nutritional status, weight gain, length of hospital stay, and development of some complications in very low birth-weight (VLBW) infants who received and did not receive olive oil supplementation enterally.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the nursing support program developed in line with the Roy Adaptation Model on the quality of life, sleep quality and depressive symptom status of women in surgical menopause. Design: The study was a single-center, randomized, controlled trial. Setting: This study was carried out in the gynecology clinic of a training and research hospital in Türkiye. Method: The participants were randomized into two equal groups: intervention and control. The nursing support program developed in addition to routine nursing care was applied to the intervention group. Routine nursing care was given to the women in the control group. Data were collected with "Personal Information Form", "Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnare", "Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index" and "Perimenopausal Depression Scale". Hypothesis: H0-a: Nursing support program developed in line with the Roy Adaptation Model has no effect on the quality of life of women who have undergone surgical menopause. H0-b: Nursing support program developed in line with the Roy Adaptation Model has no effect on the sleep quality of women who have undergone surgical menopause. H0-c: Nursing support program developed in line with the Roy Adaptation Model has no effect on the depressive symptom status of women who have undergone surgical menopause.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of early mobilization with consumption of tea, coffee, and warm water on bowel movements in patients who had laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. Design: The study was a single-center, parallel, randomized, controlled trial. Setting: This study was carried out in the general surgery clinic of a university hospital in Türkiye. Metod: The participants were randomized into four equal groups: tea, coffee, arm water and control. At the 4th hour postoperatively, the patients in the intervention group were first mobilized after drinking 200 ml of tea, coffee or warm water within 15 minutes. The first mobilization and oral intake of the patients in the control group started at the 8th hour. Bowel movements, mobilization time, first flatulence, first stool removal and hospital stay of the patients were followed up. Data were collected with "Patient Information Form", "Glasgow Coma Scale", "Patient Mobilization Follow-up Form" and "Patient Undergone Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Surgery Follow-Up Form". Hypothesis: H0-a: Early mobilization and tea consumption have no effect on the first flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. H0-b: Early mobilization and coffee consumption have no effect on the first flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy. H0-c: Early mobilization and consumption of warm water have no effect on the initial flatulence time in patients who have undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The aim of this study is to present the results of the effect of playing with play dough on treatment compliance in children aged 3-6 years receiving nebulizer therapy. In the randomized controlled study, 80 children who were hospitalized in the pediatric ward of a public hospital and met the inclusion criteria were equally divided into 2 groups. Play dough was played while receiving nebulizer therapy for the children in group 1 (research group). Play dough was not used for the children in the 2nd group. The compliance of the children in the two groups to the treatment was evaluated with the Child's Adherence to Nebulizer Treatment Evaluation Form (CANTEF).
Nursing is a profession that is human and is based on nursing care. Humans are social creatures that need care from the moment they are born.Today's scientific developments and changing technology have affected the health system.Many dying patients want to be hospitalized in order to receive better care and treatment. Depending on this situation, the frequency of nurses giving care to dying patients and their families has increased in hospitals. In order to increase the quality of the care given to the dying patient and his family and to reduce the difficulties experienced while giving this care, the nurse who provides the care should have sufficient knowledge and skills about the care of the dying patient and his family. This research will be conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to determine the effect of education on the nursing care given and the difficulties experienced by the nurses who care for the dying cancer patients and their families.
