Article Effectiveness of Game-Based Teaching Method on Nursing Students' Knowledge of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS)(Dubai Iranian Hosp, 2024) Abumettleq, Ibrahim S. S.; Bayraktar, Nurhan; Dikmen, Burcu ToturBackground and Objectives: The technology was created by humans; it is also innovative when teachers use it in the classroom. Teachers can now use media in a variety of ways to accommodate different learning styles thanks to new technologies, including animation, live video, gaming, and more. The study aimed to assess how well the game-based learning approach enhanced the students' understanding of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). Methods: This study was structured utilizing a quasi-experimental design applied with pre-and post-test assessments. The study was conducted by a nursing faculty at the "[blinded for review]".Using the census method, the students were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control groups (each consisting of 80 and 40 players). On March 18, 2022, the study was conducted at a North Cyprus nursing faculty. Both computers and phones can use the Kahoot app, which is used to play the game. Results: The study conclusions demonstrated that following the instructional intervention using game-based learning, students' performance improved in terms of the overall mean scores of all Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). Conclusion: Our results generally demonstrate that game-based learning improves the standard of instruction for the students. However, our results show that the game-based teaching method enhances nursing students' comprehension of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS), and the method could be useful in developing lesson plans for nursing education and nursing schools.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.

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.
