    Problems Experienced by the Mothers in Post-Cesarean Period: A Narrative Review
    (Iranian Scientific Society Medical Entomology, 2023) Duran, Serpil; Vural, Gulsen
    Cesarean delivery rates have been increasing which leads to a rise the problems experienced. After cesarean deliveries important problems for the mother and baby may be seen. The most common problems in the mothers after cesarean delivery are; bleeding, infection, fatigue, sleep disorders, breast problems, self-care issues, and sense of inadequacy in care of the newborn. The method used in this study was narrative review. A literature review was conducted by searching the materials published in databases including Web of Science, PubMed, Google Scholar search engine and, the WHO website. Pain, maternal death, breastfeeding problems, worsened sleep quality and comfort, anxiety, delayed recovery, prolonged hospitalization and infection rates in the cesarean deliveries are higher than in vaginal deliveries. Nurses can facilitate adaptation to the role of motherhood and prevent risky situations by evaluating mothers' care needs and providing proper interventions and support. Nurses should not only focus on the physical care needs of the mother and baby; they should also ensure the physical and psychosocial adaptation of family members in the face of role changes.

    Perceived Health Outcomes of Recreation Scale: Measurement Invariance Over Gender
    (Iranian Scientific Society Medical Entomology, 2022) Kose, Elif; Yerlisu-Lapa, Tennur; Uzun, Nezaket Bilge; Kaas, Evren Tercan; Serdar, Emrah; Aras, Goksen
    Background: Research handling structural differences among groups presume that the measurement tool works similarly among the groups and the results of measurements provide similar psychometric properties. Therefore, the aim of the study is to provide evidence for measurement invariance of the construct validity Perceived Health Outcomes of Recreation Scale (PHORS).Methods: The research sample consisted of a total of 1984 adults who exercise, including 864 women and 1120 men during 2021-2022 in Antalya City, Turkey. The MI of the PHORS was tested by multigroup con-firmatory factor analyses, which test the invariance of the covariance structures within the scope of structural equation modelling. Invariance tests were gradually conducted for the implicit variables in the model, CFI (comparative fit index criteria) and AIC (Akaike information criterion) were inquired between structural invari-ance, where no restriction was applied on the analyses and the other invariance tests (metric invariance, scalar invariance and string invariance respectively) where more restraints are applied.Results: The study yielded evidence showing that the measurement model defined for the factor structure of the scale provided measurement invariance by gender. increment CFI values were <= 0.010 in all subscales for metric and scalar invariance.Conclusion: The items of PHORS represented the same psychological structure, different groups responded to the items in the same way, the constant values in regression equations generated for the items in regression equations were equal/invariable between the groups.
