Article Citation - Scopus: 2Validation of the outcomes tools for urinary incontinence in nursing outcomes classification system and their sensitivities on nursing interventions(Galenos Publishing House, 2020) Gençbaş,D.; Bebiş,H.; Moorhead,S.Aim: There are many scales to measure urinary incontinence (UI). Nursing Outcomes Classification (NOC) scales which include Urinary Continence, Urinary Elimination, Self-Care Toileting, Medication Response, and Tissue integrity: Skin and Mucous Membranes are ideal for use in the nursing process for comprehensive and holistic assessment, with surveys available. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the validity of these NOC outcomes and indicators used for UI. Methods: This research is a methodological study. Scope validations were applied and calculated according to Fehring 1987 work model. Total of 55 experts which were the sample of the study rated Fehring as a "senior degree" with a score of 90 according to the experts' scoring. These weighted scores obtained for NOC indicators were classified as critical, supplemental or excluded. Results: In the NOC system, 5 NOCs proposed for nursing diagnosis of UI were proposed. These outcomes are; Urinary Continence, Urinary Elimination, Tissue Integrity, Self Care-Toileting, and Medication Response. After the scales were translated into Turkish, the weighted average of the scores was obtained from specialists for the coverage of all 5 NOCs. After getting the experts' opinion, 79 of the 82 indicators were calculated as critical, 3 of the indicators were calculated as supplemental. All NOCs were identified as valid and usable scales in Turkey. Conclusion: The five NOCs were verified for the evaluation of the output of individuals who received nursing knowledge of UI and variant types. Recommendations include the testing of NOC outcomes in clinical practice and inclusion in nursing curriculum. © 2020 by the University of Health Sciences Turkey.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Anxiety and Depression After Cesarean: Non-Pharmacological Evidence Based Practices;(Dokuz Eylul University, 2022) Terzioğlu,F.; Gençbaş,D.; Boztepe,H.; Doğu,N.; Akdeniz,C.; Yüceer,B.The purpose of this review is to examine the non-pharmacological evidence-based practices of anxiety and depression after a cesarean section delivery. Postpartum anxiety and depression have increased in the last decade, the rates of postpartum depression are around 13% worldwide. In the postpartum period, women may experience anxiety and depression due to the operation they have undergone; such as being in an unfamiliar environment, facing new technological equipment and encounters with the medical teams, the post-operative pain, the new roles women undertake as mothers. One of the factors that increase anxiety and depression in the postpartum period is the type of delivery. In Turkey, the rate of cesarean delivery is comparatively high, which is approximately 52%. Anxiety and depression after cesarean section develop due to fear and concern such as the complications that may occur during and after the mother's anesthesia, the possibility delaying breastfeeding her baby, and experiencing pain. Non-pharmacological evidence-based applications such as reiki, acupressure, hand and foot massage, yoga, reflexology, aromatherapy, skin to skin care, nursing care protocols were found to be effective in studies conducted to reduce anxiety and depression after cesarean-section. Nurses who have critical roles and responsibilities in pre-and post-cesarean care practices are recommended to include these evidence-based non-pharmacological practices in routine care practices. © 2022, Dokuz Eylul University.
