Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 6Outcomes of Pain Management Among Postoperative Patients: a Cross-Sectional Study(Elsevier Science inc, 2024) Akire, Sandra Chirota; Bayraktar, NurhanPurpose: Postoperative pain management has always been a significant challenge for both hospital staff and surgical patients. Determination of pain management outcomes among surgically treated patients may help develop pain management strategies, improve health services that would yield better outcomes, and increase patient satisfaction. This study aimed to assess the outcomes of pain management among postoperative patients. Design: The study was a descriptive cross-sectional study. Methods: The research was performed on postoperative patients at two university hospitals in North Cyprus from July to September 2019. The study sample consisted of 90 patients from both hospitals. The Turkish Version of the revised American Pain Society Patient Outcome Questionnaire (APS-POQ-R-TR) was used for data collection. The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) checklist was used to report the present study. Findings: This study showed that the overall mean for pain severity and the worst pain experienced by patients after 24 hours was slightly higher than medium. Examination of interference of the pain with functions demonstrated that patients experienced problems with physical activities and sleeping. The most experienced side effects were nausea and drowsiness, and the most common emotions were anxiety and helplessness during the postsurgery period. The satisfaction rate of the patients with postoperative pain management was relatively high. Conclusions: A holistic approach with evidence-based practices is crucial for adequate postoperative pain management. The recommendations include the development of individual pain outcome strategies to improve overall satisfaction with pain management among postoperative patients.

Non-invasive ventilation failure is defined as the necessity for endotracheal intubation or death during the NIV trial. Objectives: This study aimed to identify the predictors and associated factors of NIV failure in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU). Methods: This retrospective, longitudinal cohort study utilized electronic medical records of COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU. A total of 150 patients were included in the study. Patient demographics, medical history, laboratory tests, partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2), oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart rate, acidosis, consciousness, oxygenation, and respiratory rate (HACOR score), and the ratio of oxygen saturation (ROX) index (the SpO2/fraction of inspired oxygen [FIO2] to respiratory rate [SF] ratio) were recorded. Non-invasive ventilation failure was determined based on the need for endotracheal intubation or cardiac-respiratory arrest while on NIV. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS software (version 26). Results: Of the patients, 55.3% were male (mean age: 55.9 years), with an NIV failure rate of 67.3%, a mortality rate of 66.7%, and 3.3% of patients requiring tracheostomy after NIV failure. The ROX index consistently decreased over time, and an increase in the HACOR score and PCO2 after 6 hours of commencing NIV were the predictors of NIV failure. Additionally, higher levels of lactate dehydrogenase, lower SF ratios, and higher APACHE scores upon ICU admission were significantly associated with NIV failure. Notably, the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) as an inflammatory index, SF ratio upon ICU admission, HACOR score, ROX index, and PCO2 after 12 hours were significant predictors of in-hospital mortality in patients receiving NIV. Conclusions: The ROX index, HACOR scale, and PCO2 are significant predictors of both NIV failure and in-hospital mortality. © 2023, Varpaei et al.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Comparison of the Escape Room and Storytelling Methods in Learning the Stress Response: a Randomized Controlled Pilot Study(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Dogu, Nilgun; Boztepe, Handan; Topal, Cansu Akdag; Sonmez, Munevver; Yuceer, Bugse; Bayraktar, NurhanAim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the Escape Room and Storytelling methods on nursing students' learning about the topic of stress response. Background: It is recommended that new generations be trained using innovative teaching methods that differ from traditional teaching methods. The Escape Room and Storytelling methods are among the techniques that have been used and recommended for this purpose. Design: The study was conducted with a randomized, controlled design. Methods: Thirty-five (n = 35) second-year undergraduate nursing students were randomly divided into two groups, one group was trained on stress response using the Escape Room method, while the other group was trained using the Storytelling method. Focus-group interviews were conducted with the students after the interventions. Results: There was a significant difference between the groups in terms of the median post-intervention knowledge assessment score. It was determined that the students in the Escape Room group scored significantly higher than those in the Storytelling group (p < 0.05) Conclusions: The use of these methods, which ensure the active participation of students and increase their motivation, effectively contributes to meeting the educational needs of students and increases their level of satisfaction.Article Citation - WoS: 1Evaluation of Patient Safety Culture of Nurses in Northern Cyprus(Galenos Publ House, 2022) Kaymakci, Senay oezen; Dikmen, Burcu Totur; Bayraktar, Nurhan; Dal Yilmaz, Uemran; Aydin, NidaBACKGROUND/AIMS: Patient safety culture is the outcome of values, perceptions, attitudes, skills and behaviors of an individual or group that determine the style, competence and promises of an institution in health and safety management. Nurses play an important role in improving quality in health care through initiatives and strategies for patient safety. This study was conducted to evaluate patient safety culture in nurses working in a university hospital in Northern Cyprus.MATERIALS AND METHODS: This survey was planned as a cross-sectional descriptive study and 130 nurses were included in the sampling. The survey data were collected using the Personal Information Form and the Patient Safety Culture Scale (PSCS).RESULTS: In this study, the total mean score of the nurses from the PSCS was 2.82 +/- 0.44. The mean scores of the nurses' subscales related to PSCS were determined as follows: 2.88 +/- 0.54 in the "care environment", 2.83 +/- 0.56 in the "employee behavior", 2.83 +/- 0.59 in the "employee training", 2.81 +/- 0.50 in the "management and leadership", and 2.68 +/- 0.54 in the "unexpected incident and error reporting" subscales. The total Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of the scale was 0.963 and between 0.807-0.963 for the subscales.CONCLUSION: It was determined that the nurses' PSCS scores were above the average level. Developing a patient safety culture in institutions is important for quality improvements which are rapidly advancing in healthcare services nowadays.
