Article Determination of Body Image and Self-Efficacy Levels in Patients After Cornea Transplantation(Elsevier Espana S.L.U, 2024) Genç, H.; Tanrıverdi, Seher; Tanrıverdi, S.; Şen, M.A.; 09.06. Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiPurpose: The study aimed to determine body image and levels after surgery in cornea transplant patients. Materials and methods: The population of this cross-sectional study was composed of 383 patients presented to the Eye Bank unit of a University Hospital after corneal transplantation. Sample size of 193 patients was calculated with 0.5 power, a margin of error of 5%, representing 95% of the universe. The data were collected through face-to-face interviews with the patients by the researcher and the study was completed with 178 patients in September - November 2022. The data were collected using a Patient Information Form, the Body Image Scale, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale. Parametric tests, Pearson Correlation, Student's T-test, and One-Way Analysis of Variance tests were performed were used in the data analysis. Results: It was determined that the mean Body Image Scale score of the transplant patients participating in the study was 159.41 ± 36.99 and the mean Self-Efficacy Scale score was 30.37±8.31. When the comparison of the mean scores was examined, the difference between the mean scores of gender, marital status, occupation, and body image scale was statistically significant (P < .05), while the difference between the self-efficacy mean scores was not statistically significant (P > .05). There was a positive, moderately strong significant relationship between body image and the self-efficacy of the patients (P < .01) (r = .57) Conclusion: It was found that the patient's body image and self-efficacy levels were high, and self-efficacy increased as the body image increased. © 2023 Elsevier España, S.L.U.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7The effect of acupressure on postoperative pain of lumbar disc hernia: A quasi-experimental study(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018) Tanrıverdi, Seher; Sarıtaş, Serdar; 09.06. Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiLumbar disc herniation (LDH) is a disease characterized by lumbar and leg pain that occurs as a result of compression of the lumbar spinal root by the degenerated disc. The results of the study showed that 80% of humans experienced lumbar pain in any period of their lives [[1], [2], [3]]. Comprising an important part of lumbar pain; lumbar disc herniation (LDH) has an prevalence of approximately 15–56% per year [4,5]. One of the treatment methods preferred for patients diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation is surgery. Patients, who undergo surgery, experience intense pain in the early postoperative period [6]. It is known that medications are commonly used in pain control. Analgesic treatment used for pain control is the most preferred treatment method for pain relief as it has a rapid action and is administered easily [7,8]. Damages in both individual and national economy due to preferring carelessly and frequently analgesics affect negatively some physiological functionings and have negative effects such as development of addiction with the increase of dosages every time especially in cases where narcotics are preferred [9]. Thus, it is indicated that the administration of non-pharmaceutical methods by nurses to relieve the postoperative pain in patients in addition to medications increases the action of medications [8]. It is anticipated that there are numerous non-pharmaceutical methods which are efficient in pain management, such as distraction, relaxation, therapeutic touch, transcutaneous nerve stimulation (TENS), informing, hypnotherapy, acupuncture, massage, aromatherapy, music and meditation, yoga, attention-grabbing, imagination, cognitive-behavioral techniques. But, it is known that nurses do not use these methods adequately to relieve pain [10]. It may be asserted that non-pharmaceutical treatments are among independent nursing roles of professional nurses who have theoretical knowledge and problem solving ability. Nurses are required to take a role in non-pharmaceutical interventions in order to meet the health needs of individuals, families and society [11]. One of the non-pharmaceutical treatment methods used in pain relief is acupressure. Applied with touch pressuring on the acupuncture points using hands, fingers, thumbs or small beads according to the traditional Chinese medicine; acupressure is a non-pharmaceutical pain relief example that balances energy in the body [[12], [13], [14]]. Advantages of acupressure include low cost, learning convenience and non-invasive characteristics [14]. Besides, randomized clinical studies conducted to compare physiotherapy and acupressure in decreasing lumbar pain (LBP) have reveal that acupressure might be effective [[15], [16], [17]]. The use of acupressure in nursing practices by taking all its positive effects into consideration will contribute to the establishment of qualified nursing care standards.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5The Effect of Progressive Muscle Relaxation on Abdominal Pain and Distension in Colonoscopy Patients(ScienceDirect, 2022) Tanrıverdi, Seher; Parlar Kılıc, Serap; 09.06. Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiAbstract Purpose This study was conducted to examine the effect of progressive muscle relaxation on abdominal pain and distension in colonoscopy patients. Design A randomized controlled experimental design. Methods The experimental group was informed about progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) and an audio recording was provided. After the colonoscopy, abdominal pain (Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) pain) and distension (VAS distension) scores were assessed, then PMR was applied for 30 minutes and pain scores were determined again. VAS pain and VAS distension scores of the control group were determined after colonoscopy and 30 minutes later. VAS abdominal pain and VAS distension scores were evaluated at the 2nd, 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th, and 24th hour after the procedure on all patients. The day after the colonoscopy, post-test data were collected. Findings The pretest VAS pain and VAS distension mean scores were similar in the intervention and control groups (P > .05). The mean VAS pain and VAS distension scores decreased significantly in the intervention group post procedure (P < .05). Conclusions PMR was determined to be effective in reducing abdominal pain and distension after colonoscopy.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 14Examining the hand hygiene beliefs and practices of nursing students and the effectiveness of their handwashing behaviour(Wiley Online Library, 2020) Baran, Leyla; Güneş, Ülkü; Baran, Leyla; Ozturk, Huri; Sahbudak, Gul; 09.06. Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiAims and objectives: To examine the hand hygiene beliefs and practices of Turkish nursing students and the effectiveness of their handwashing. Background: Handwashing is the most important part of preventing cross-infection, but there is a considerable amount of evidence that shows that the handwashing technique of nurses and nursing students is not always very effective. Design/methods: This research was carried out in two stages and is type of descriptive, analytical and observational. The study comprised 563 students from a Faculty of Nursing. Besides evaluating the nursing students' sociodemographic data, we assessed their beliefs and hand hygiene practices using a Hand Hygiene Beliefs Scale (HHBS) and Hand Hygiene Practices Inventory (HHPI) and also used with "Derma LiteCheck" device to assess how effectively they washed their hands. The STROBE checklist was used. Results: The handwashing frequency of the female students was significantly higher. The scores on both the HHBS and the HHPI were significantly higher among the female students compared to the males. The dirtiest areas of the hand were determined as nails (nail beds, beneath the nails), skin between the fingers and fingertips. Conclusions: The results of our study indicate that although student nurses have positive perceptions about hand hygiene and appear to have developed good habits, the effectiveness of their handwashing is poor. Relevance to clinical practice: It is of great importance that UV light and florescent gel are made readily available both at nursing schools and in hospitals and other health institutions since these elements are useful in providing immediate visual feedback for a full assessment of handwashing behaviour.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 14Examining the hand hygiene beliefs and practices of nursing students and the effectiveness of their handwashing behaviour(Journal of Clinical Nursing, 2020) Baran, Leyla; Ceylan, Burcu; Güneş, Ülkü Yapucu; Öztürk, Huri; Sahbudak, Gül; 09.06.

Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiBackground All clinical alarms require nurses to respond even if an intervention is not needed. Nurses are expected to respond appropriately to each alarm and establish priorities among their care practices accordingly. This study was conducted to examine the number and types of clinical device alarms used in intensive care units, the duration of their activation, and nurses’ degree of sensitivity to them. Methods This observational study was conducted in 4 intensive care units in a university hospital in Turkey. A total of 20 nurses (5 from each unit) were observed for a total of 80 hours. The alarms were categorized as valid, false, or technical. Results During the study observation period, the mean number of alarms sounding per hour per bed was 1.8. A total of 144 alarms were recorded, of which 70.8% were valid, 15.3% were false, and 13.9% were technical. The mean duration of alarm activation was 8 minutes for valid alarms, 14 minutes for false alarms, and 53 minutes for technical alarms. Conclusions Nurses’ responses to alarms differ depend-ing on alarm type; for alarms that do not require an emergency intervention, nurses tend to respond late or not at all.

Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiThis experimental study, which was conducted to examine the necessity of aspiration procedure and its effect on pain in intramuscular (IM) injections made into the ventrogluteal site (VGS), is randomized controlled and double-blind. The patients in the study group (n = 834) were assigned to the IM group with the aspiration period of 5 to 10 seconds (Implementation Group A-IGA), the aspiration period of 1 to 2 seconds (Control Group-CG), and no aspiration (Implementation Group B-IGB) according to stratified block randomization list. Patients’ pain levels were evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). No bleeding was observed when aspiration periods of 1 to 2 and 5 to 10 seconds were followed during the injections administered to the VGS. The difference between the pain medians of patients in IGB and the CG were not significant (p =.521). It can be said that there is no need to apply aspiration in IM applied into the VGS if the correct site is determinedArticle Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Midwifery Students' Views on Nanda-I Diagnoses and Care Plans Used in Clinical Practice(Mdpi, 2024) Baran, Leyla; Yesil, Yesim; Yeşil, Yeşim; 09.06. Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 09.02. Department of Midwifery/ Ebelik Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiBackground: Developing a care plan for patients is not specific to nursing or midwifery; it is the case in every situation where patients seek help from care providers. Midwifery students draw upon NANDA-I diagnoses while developing care plans (CPs) in clinical practices, and plan and apply their care accordingly. This study aims to identify the views of midwifery students on the NANDA-I diagnoses and CPs that they use in clinical practice. Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with 222 students between September and December 2022. The research data were collected through face-to-face interviews using a questionnaire based on NANDA-I diagnoses and CPs. In line with the existing literature, the questionnaire was designed by two academicians who specialized in nursing fundamentals and midwifery. The questionnaire consisted of closed-ended (8 questions) and open-ended (7 questions) questions. Data analysis was performed with descriptive statistics and Pearson's chi-square test. Results: Of 222 students, 57.7% stated that they did not know the definition of a CP. It was found that 46.8% of the students felt inadequate at developing CPs. Furthermore, the students stated that they found the CP training provided during their undergraduate study partially sufficient, with a rate of 52.7%, and 16.7% of midwifery students offered suggestions about CP teaching. The number of midwifery-related diagnoses of which the students were aware was 19. Conclusions: The study was beneficial in terms of identifying the deficiencies of the students related to NANDA-I diagnoses and developing CPs that might be overcome through education and observing the midwifery-related diagnoses that they used. It is of critical importance to educate midwifery students about midwifery-related NANDA-I diagnoses in order that they embrace midwifery diagnoses and CP learning.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2A retrospective descriptive study of NANDA-I nursing diagnoses used by midwives working in obstetrics and gynecologic service: An example from south-eastern Turkey(Wiley Online Library, 2023) Yeşil, Yeşim; Baran, Leyla; 09.02. Department of Midwifery/ Ebelik Bölümü; 09.06. Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiPurpose: This study aims to identify NANDA-I nursing diagnoses that midwives working in obstetrics and gynecologic service use while managing the electronic nursing care process. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in a descriptive way to evaluate electronic care plan records of 3025 patients staying in obstetrics and gynecologic service between April 1, 2020. and April 1, 2021. Diagnoses in the records of the electronic care process were digitalized by two faculty members. Then, NANDA-I nursing diagnoses used by midwives were identified. NANDA-I nursing diagnoses used by midwives were identified. Findings: It was determined that diagnoses in care plans documented from the system within the 1-year period fell into eight domains and 10 classes, and 5819 diagnoses were given in total. The most frequent diagnoses given in obstetrics and gynecologic service were "acute pain" and "risk for bleeding." Conclusion: Findings of this study revealed that nursing care records in obstetrics and gynecologic service did not have a large number of diagnoses and interventions. Implications for nursing practice: Care plans directly reflect the contribution of the care to the patient. Consequently, midwives being aware of and recording nursing diagnoses while giving care will ensure a standardized language and visibility in care. More coverage of midwifery-related diagnoses in the midwifery curriculum will make NANDA-I nursing diagnoses more visible in midwifery as well.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3The effect of virtual rainforest and a white noise mobile application on satisfaction, tolerance, comfort, and vital signs during arthroscopy(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Tanrıverdi, Seher; Tanriverdi, Seher; Akar, Mehmet Sait; 09.06. Department of Social Services/ Sosyal Hizmet Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu ÜniversitesiBackground and purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Virtual Rainforest (VRF) and a White Noise (WN) mobile applications on patient satisfaction, tolerance, comfort, and vital signs during arthroscopic knee surgery. Methods: This is a randomized, controlled, interventional study. The study was completed with a total of 93 participants, 31 in the VRF group, 31 in the WN group, and 31 in the control group. Data were collected using a Patient Information Form and a Visual Analog Scale for satisfaction, tolerance, and comfort. Results: The results of study showed that there were significant increases in tolerance, satisfaction, comfort, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation levels and significant decreases in heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressures in both VRF and WN groups (p < .05). In the control group, no significant difference was found between the means of the variables before and after the procedure (p > .05). Conclusion: According to the results of the study, VRF and WN applied during the arthroscopy procedure increased satisfaction, tolerance, and comfort in patients and had a positive effect on vital signs.
