Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 11Nursing Students' Views on Trauma-Informed Pediatric Nursing Care and Family-Centered Care(W B Saunders Co-elsevier inc, 2023) Ozbay, Sevil Cinar; Boztepe, Handan; Boztepe, Handan; Kanbay, Yalcin; Boztepe, Handan; Nursing; NursingPurpose: We studied the views of nursing students on family-centered care (FCC) and their knowledge, opinions, self-rated competence, current practice, and perceived implementation barriers with regard to trauma-informed pediatric nursing care.Methods: This survey was a descriptive correlational study. The sample consisted of 261 nursing students, 3rd and 4th years, who had completed the Child Health and Diseases Nursing Course. The data were obtained using the "Student Information Form," "Family-Centered Care Attitude Scale," and "trauma-informed care (TIC) Provider Survey."Results: Nursing students were knowledgeable and held favorable opinions about TIC. The survey showed that students with higher levels and those with a hospitalization experience during childhood had higher scores regarding TIC. A positive relationship was found between the students' TIC to mean score and FCC attitude mean score.Conclusions: Nursing students are not competent to practice TIC, especially with pediatric patients. Therefore, they need to develop relevant skills for helping pediatric patients. Practice implications: Efforts to improve nursing students' trauma-informed pediatric care should highlight spe-cific skills related to helping pediatric patients manage emotional responses to difficult medical experiences. By integrating TIC into the baccalaureate curricula, nursing educators can provide the students with appropriate skills and facilities so that they can provide holistic and highly effective care to highly vulnerable patients.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1The Mediating Effect of Covid-19 Risk Perception on the Correlation Between Levels of Mindfulness and Preventive Health Behavior in Nursing Students(W B Saunders Co-elsevier inc, 2022) Karadas, Canan; Topal, Cansu Akdag; Ozbay, Sevil cinar; Kanbay, Yalcin; Ay, AyseObjective: This study aimed to investigate nursing students' levels of mindfulness and its effect on developing preventive health behaviors, and to examine the mediating role of COVID-19 risk perception on this effect. Design and measures: This study used a descriptive and correlational study design. Results: The level of mindfulness, accompanied by COVID-19 risk perception caused a.104-unit increase in developing preventive health behavior. Conclusions: The findings revealed that the indirect effect of the level of mindfulness on developing preventive health behavior was at a significant level; therefore, it is concluded that COVID-19 risk perception mediates the correlation between level of mindfulness. Practice implications: The present study is important to investigate nursing students' levels of mindfulness and the effect of these on developing preventive health behaviors.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1A Retrospective Analysis of Patients Who Underwent Tracheal Resection and End-To Anastomosis Surgery for Benign Tracheal Stenosis, Over a 10-Year Period(W B Saunders Co-elsevier inc, 2024) Gulmez, M. Ihsan; Kutay, Funda; Aydin, Canset; Akoglu, Ertap; Okuyucu, SemsettinIntroduction: Laryngotracheal stenosis encompasses a diverse range of diagnoses, encompassing complete or partial narrowing of various subgroups of the upper airways, including the laryngeal structures and trachea, due to pathological scar formation. This increasingly prevalent pathology is of significant importance due to its potential for life-threatening consequences. Among the defined treatment modalities, tracheal resection and endto-side anastomosis remain a valuable therapeutic alternative in appropriate indications. Objective: The objective of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the outcomes of patients who underwent tracheal resection and end-to-end anastomosis at our clinic over the past decade. Material & method: All patients who underwent tracheal resection and end-to-end anastomosis surgery for benign tracheal stenosis at the Department of Otolaryngology, Mustafa Kemal University Hospital between 2013 and 2023 were included in the study. The diagnosis of tracheal stenosis was based on endoscopic examination and computed tomography results. Interventions without postoperative symptoms and without the need for additional surgical intervention were considered successful. The study was approved by Hatay Mustafa Kemal University Ethics Committee with decision number 2023/27. Results: A total of 29 patients were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 26.48 years. 3 patients (10.35 %) had a comorbidity. In all patients orotracheal intubation or intubation and tracheotomy was the aetiological cause. There were no intraoperative complications. In the postoperative period, wound infection was observed in 3 patients (10.35 %) and subcutaneous emphysema in 2 patients (6.9 %). In 1 patient (3.45 %) recurrent respiratory distress was observed, restenosis was considered and tracheotomy was performed. Our complication rate was 20.69 %. When all patients were evaluated at the end of the postoperative follow-up period, the surgical success rate was calculated to be 96.55 %. Conclusion: With a surgical success rate of 96.55 % and a low complication rate in our study, we believe, in parallel with previous studies, that open surgery is a reliable, physiologically appropriate and successful method among the current treatments for tracheal stenosis.
