The effect of acupressure on postoperative pain of lumbar disc hernia: A quasi-experimental study
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2018) Tanrıverdi, Seher; Sarıtaş, Serdar
Lumbar 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.
COVID -19’ un sağlık çalışanlarının ruh sağlığına etkisi ve ruhsal travmaların önlenmesi
(Dergipark, 2021) Tanrıverdi, Ömer; Tanrıverdi, Seher
Dünyada hızla yayılıp yaklaşık 2 milyon insanın ölümüne sebep olan coronavirüs (COVID-19), ilk olarak Çin’in Wuhan Eyaleti’nde 2019 yılı Aralık ayının sonlarında ortaya çıkarak, solunum yolu enfeksiyonuna neden olup, insandan insana bulaşabilen bir virüstür. Önce Asya sınırlarına, sonra tüm Avrupa’ya yayılan COVID-19 WHO tarafından pandemi olarak kabul edildi. Pandemi sürecindeki bu müdahaleler bireysel ve toplumsal ruh sağlığı üzerinde oldukça olumsuz etkiler oluşturmaktadır. Toplumun salgınla mücadele sürecinin en önemli üyelerinden olan sağlık çalışanları da bu olumsuz etkilere en fazla maruz kalan meslek gruplarından olup fiziksel ve psikolojik yönden birçok tehdite maruz kalmaktadırlar. COVID-19 salgınının ilk ortaya çıktığı Wuhan kentinde sağlıkçılar üzerinde gerçekleştirilen ilk çalışmada, salgının hemen ardından sağlık ekiplerinin %71,3'ünde eşik altı ve hafif düzeyde, %22,4'ünde orta düzeyde, %6,2’sinde ciddi düzeyde ruhsal bozuklukların meydana geldiği belirlenmiştir. COVID-19 pandemisinde sağlık çalışanlarının ruhsal travmalardan korunması için; yeterli uyku, yoga, meditasyon gibi gevşeme uygulamaları stres azaltıcı, müzik dinleme, resim çizme gibi yöntemler faydalı olacaktır.
Assessment of preoperative anxiety and negative automatic thoughts in patients waiting for corneal transplantation
(Publishing Office of the University of Rzeszow, 2024) Tanrıverdi, Seher; Şen, Mehmet Ali; Genç, Hasan
Introduction and aim. In patients waiting for organ transplantation, increased waiting time can increase anxiety by creating negative automatic thoughts. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between corneal transplant recipients' negative automatic thoughts and anxiety before organ transplantation. Material and methods. The population of this correlational descriptive study consisted of 108 patients waiting for cornea transplantation in the Eye Bank unit of a hospital in the south east region of Türkiye. The data were obtained from the patients presented to the ophthalmology clinic for transplantation between September and December 2022. A patient information form, the Negative Automatic Thoughts Scale, and the Trait Anxiety Scale were used to collect the data. Percentage distribution, arithmetic mean, logistic regression and correlation analysis were used in the data analysis. Results. It was determined that the mean score of the negative automatic thoughts of the transplant patients participating in the study was 100.69±47.83, and the trait anxiety mean score was 53.06±6.07. There was a positive relationship between negative automatic thoughts and trait anxiety at a moderate level, which was statistically significant (p<0.05, r=0.53). Conclusion. It was determined in the study that the patients' negative automatic thoughts and trait anxiety were high, and their anxiety increased as the negative automatic thoughts increased.

(ELSEVIER, 2023) Tanrıverdi, Seher
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 anaudio recording was provided. After the colonoscopy,abdominal pain(VisualAnalogueScale(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 thec olonoscopy, post-test data were collected. Findings:The pretest VAS pain and VAS distension mean scores were similar in thei ntervention and control groups(P>.05). The mean VAS pain and VAS distension scores decreased significantly in thei ntervention group post procedure(P<.05). Conclusions:PMR was determined to be effective in reducing abdominal pain and distension after colonoscopy.
An Examination of the Relationship Between Spirituality and Life Satisfaction Among Patients Awaiting Corneal Transplantation in Türkiye
(2024) Tanrıverdi, Seher; Genç, Hasan; Tanrıverdi, Seher
Background: Transplant surgery significantly influences patients’ spirituality and life satisfaction, reflecting the diverse beliefs and cultures of those awaiting the procedure. Aim: This study aimed to explore the relationship between spirituality and life satisfaction in patients awaiting corneal transplantation. Methods: This relational descriptive study involved 101 patients on the waiting list for corneal transplantation. Data were collected using a Patient Information Form, the Life Satisfaction Scale, and the Spirituality Scale. Percentage distribution, arithmetic mean, and Pearson correlation analysis were employed for data analysis. Results: The majority of the participants were married (95%), with 56.4% being male and 26.7% retired. About 46.5% had completed primary education. The mean Life Satisfaction Scale score among the patients was 21.83 ± 8.96, and the mean Spirituality Scale Score was 20.49 ± 4.15 before corneal transplantation. A positive, albeit weak, relationship was found between the patients’ life satisfaction and spirituality levels, which was statistically significant (p < 0.01, r=0.37). Additionally, a weakly positive and significant correlation was noted between age and life satisfaction (p < 0.05, r=0.19). Conclusion: The study found that patients exhibited high levels of life satisfaction and spirituality, with life satisfaction increasing alongside spirituality. It was therefore concluded that care should be provided to patients with a psychosocial and emotional approach, aiming to meet their spiritual needs and enhance their life satisfaction prior to corneal transplantation.

(2023) Tanrıverdi, Seher; Tanrıverdi, Seher; Pehlivan,Seda
Amaç: Hemşirelerin, kendi bakım davranışlarını değerlendirmesi ve aynı bakım davranışlarının hastalar tarafından nasıl değerlendirildiğini anlaması oldukça önemlidir. Bu araştırma, hastaların ve hemşirelerin algıladığı bakım davranışları ve bakım memnuniyeti arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı olarak yapılan bu araştırma, iç hastalıkları ve cerrahi kliniklerinde çalışan 119 hemşire ve bakım verdikleri 100 hasta ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veriler, hastalar ve hemşireler için ayrı veri toplama formları kullanılarak yüz yüze görüşme yöntemi ile toplanmıştır. Veri toplama formları; bireyin tanıtıcı özellikleri formu, Vizüel Analog Skala ve Bakım Davranışları Değerlendirme Ölçeği-Kısa Formundan oluşmuştur. Bulgular: Algılanan bakım davranışları toplam puan ortalaması, hastalarda ve hemşirelerde sırasıyla; 88,50 (SS=23,14) ve 111,44 (SS=16,52) olarak bulunmuştur. Bakım memnuniyeti puan ortalaması, hastalarda ve hemşirelerde sırasıyla; 6,66 (SS=2,07) ve 7,42 (SS=2,12) olup hemşirelerin algıladığı bakım davranışları (p<0,001) ve memnuniyet düzeyleri (p<0,01) hastalara göre istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde yüksek saptanmıştır. Hastaların ve hemşirelerin algıladığı bakım davranışları puanı ile memnuniyet puanı arasında istatistiksel olarak olumlu yönde ilişki bulunmuştur (sırasıyla 0,591; 0,316; p<0,01). Sonuç: Hastaların ve hemşirelerin algıladığı bakım davranışları ve bakım memnuniyetinin orta düzeyin üzerinde olduğu ve algılanan bakım davranış düzeyi arttıkça bakım memnuniyetinin arttığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bu doğrultuda, hastalar tarafından algılanan bakım davranışlarını ve memnuniyet düzeyini arttırmak için uygulanabilecek yaklaşımlar ile ilgili araştırmalar yapılmalı ve stratejiler geliştirilmelidir.

Abstract 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.
