This study was conducted with the aim of determining the effect of fear of COVID-19 in patients and clinical nurses on night nursing care. This was a cross-sectional study. The research sample consisted of 604 patients and 270 clinical nurses selected by the convenience sampling method. Data were collected between August 2021 and July 2022 using a Patients’ Information form, a Nurse’s Information form, the Fear of COVID-19 scale, and the Night Nursing Care instrument. No significant difference was found between the total mean scores of the patients and the nurses on the Fear of COVID-19 scale or the Night Nursing Care instrument (rho = –0.017, p = .702; rho = –0.020, p = .741). It was found that patients’ and nurses’ fears of COVID-19 did not affect their perceptions of night nursing care.
The Impact of the Cough Trick, Spirometer Blowing, and Stress Ball Methods on Older Adults' Pain, Anxiety, and Comfort During Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Practice: A Randomized Controlled Study
(Mosby-Elsevier, 2025) Ozbay, Hediye; Turan, Mensure; Oner, Ugur
This study was conducted to determine the impact of the cough trick, spirometer blowing, and stress ball methods on older adults' pain, anxiety, and comfort levels during peripheral intravenous catheter practice in an emergency department. The research sample consisted of three intervention groups-cough trick, spirometer blowing, and stress ball-and a control group. Each group consisted of 31 patients, resulting in a total of 124 patients. The intervention groups showed a significant decrease in pain (p < 0.001) and anxiety (p < 0.001) levels and a significant increase in comfort (p < 0.001) levels over time, compared to the control group. Thus, the cough trick, spirometer blowing, and stress ball techniques were found to be effective in reducing pain and anxiety levels and elevating comfort levels among older adults during peripheral intravenous catheterization.
