Aydin, Aykut; Aydin Sayilan, Aylin; Kulakac, Nursen
Background: Healthcare professionals are known to make intensive use of the internet to improve their health literacy, preserve their psychological resilience, resolve uncertainties, and lessen their fear of COVID-19. Although several studies have addressed these concepts, we encountered none examining their relationships with one another. Objective: This research set out to determine the effects of health literacy, psychological resilience, and internet addiction levels on the fear of COVID-19 in healthcare professionals. Methods: The sample in this descriptive, cross-sectional, and correlation-seeking research consisted of 456 health workers. The data were collected using an information form and the Health Literacy Scale (HLS), the Brief Resilience Scale (BRS), Young's Internet Addiction Test-Short Form (YIAT-SF), and the Fear of COVID-19 Scale. Results: The mean age of the health professionals enrolled in the research was 40.80 ± 11.39 years (min 22, max 68), 52.4% were women, 87.1% held bachelor's degrees, 86.8% were married, and 5.9% were working as nurses. The participants’ mean scale scores were 54.97 ± 5.62 for the HLS, 26.95 ± 9.57 for YIAT-SF, 20.57 ± 3.62 for the BRS, and 20.33 ± 2.97 for the Fear of COVID-19 Scale. Conclusions: The healthcare professionals in this study exhibited adequate levels of health literacy and psychological resilience, a moderate level of internet addiction, and still experienced fear of COVID-19. Health literacy, internet addiction, and psychological well-being emerged as important factors in the fear of COVID-19.

Aydin Sayilan, Aylin; Kulakaç, Nurşen
Objective: This study was conducted as a cross-sectional and correlational study to determine the effects of preoperative perceived nursing care and surgical anxiety on postoperative recovery. Materials and Methods: The population of the study consisted of 405 patients who were treated in the general surgery and urology clinics of two hospitals in Turkey between January and December 2023. Personal information form, Care Behavior Scale-24 (CBS-24), Surgical Anxiety Questionnaire (SAQ), and Postoperative Recovery Index (PoRI) were used to collect data. Results: The total mean score of the participants included in the study was 3.19±1.07 in the PoRI, 3.29±2.02 in the CBS-24, and 46.56±7.90 in the SAQ. According to the results of multiple linear regression analysis, the postoperative recovery status of patients undergoing surgical intervention is affected by care behaviors, income status and surgical anxiety levels. Conclusion: It was determined that the patients included in this study had great difficulty in recovery and experienced anxiety despite their perception of care being adequate. It was concluded that as the patients' perception of care increased, the difficulty in recovery decreased, and as their anxiety increased, the difficulty in recovery increased.

Aydin Sayilan, Aylin; Kulakac, Nursen
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) surgery on quality of sexual life in patients' spouses. A pre/post-operative test, quasi-experimental design with no control group was employed. The research was conducted in the urology clinics of two hospitals in the west of Turkey between 30 June and 30 September 2022. It was completed with 172 patient spouses recruited using non-probability sampling. The study data were collected using an individual information form and the Sexual Quality of Life-Female questionnaire. The preoperative test applied prior to surgery was administered by the face-to-face interview method, while the postoperative test was completed by telephone interviews 8 weeks after the initial data collection. The mean age of the individuals undergoing TURP surgery in this study was 62.69 ± 7.98 years (min 40, max 77), and the mean age of the spouses was 57.91 ± 7.46 (min 39, max 73). Sexual Quality of Life-Female scores after surgery were significantly higher than the pre-surgical values (p < 0.001). A significant difference in sex life quality was determined in terms of age, education, employment status, presence of chronic disease, number of children, and ‘love marriages’ (p < 0.05). The sexual life quality of the spouses of patients exposed to TURP surgery increased significantly 8 weeks after the procedure. The quality of sex life was higher among individuals with higher education levels, working individuals, and those who ‘married for love’, but decreased in line with age and number of children.

Aydin Sayilan, Aylin; Kulakaç, Nurşen
Amaç: Bu çalışma, cerrahi hastalıkları hemşireliği dersini alan öğrencilerin sınav kaygısı ve stresle başa çıkma düzeylerinin belirlen- mesi amacıyla tanımlayıcı ve ilişki arayıcı olarak yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Araştırmanın örneklemini 1-15 Mayıs 2022 tarihleri ara- sında Türkiye’de bulunan iki üniversitenin hemşirelik bölümünde öğ- renim gören ve cerrahi hastalıkları hemşireliği dersini alan 213 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veri toplama araçlar ı olarak öğrenci tanıtım formu, Stresle Başa Çıkma Tarzları Ölçeği (SBÇTÖ) ve Westside Sınav Kay- gısı Ölçeği (WSKÖ) kullan ılmıştır. Verilerin de ğerlendirilmesinde sayı ve yüzdelik hesapları, aritmetik ortalama, Student t-test, Pearson korelasyon analizi ve lineer regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Anlamlı- lık p<0,05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular: Araştırmada öğrencile- rin s ınav kayg ısı puanlarının 25,67±11,92 oldu ğu belirlenmi ştir. Öğrencilerin stresle başa çıkma tarzlarından en fazla kendine güvenli yaklaşım ve iyimser yakla şım yöntemini kulland ıkları saptanmıştır. Öğrencilerin WSKÖ puan ı ile SBÇTÖ kendine güvenli yakla şım (p<0,001) alt boyut puan ı arasında istatistiksel olarak negatif yönde ve orta düzeyde; çaresiz yaklaşım (p=0,028) ve boyun eğici yaklaşım (p=0,011) arasında ise pozitif yönde düşük düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu belirlendi (p<0,05). Çoklu lineer regresyon analizi sonuçlarına göre öğrencilerin sınav kaygılarını önemli ölçüde etkileyen faktörlerin; cinsiyet ve “kendine güvenli yaklaşım” alt boyutları olduğu tespit edil- miştir. Sonuç: Çalışmamızın sonucunda, hem şirelik öğrencilerinin stresle baş etme tarzlarının yetersiz olması, sınav kaygılarını olumsuz etkilemektedir. Bu araştırma sonuçlarının stresin psikolojik etkilerine yönelik uygulanacak müdahale planlarına katkı sağlayabileceği düşü- nülmektedir.

Introduction: The worldwide spread of coronavirus over the last 20 years has resulted in its becoming a major threat to health. The virus is thought to be a zoonotic disease spread by means of direct and contact transmission. The purpose of this study was to investigate the symptoms, anxiety-depression levels, and quality of life of patients with Covid-19. Material and methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional research was conducted in an education and research hospital between August and November 2020. An information form, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and the Quality of Life Scale were employed as data collection tools. The study was completed with 103 individuals. Results: The mean age of the patients enrolled in the study was 37.77±10.92 years, and 67% were women. Higher anxiety levels were determined in women compared to men (p=0.001) and in married participants compared to unmarried individuals (p=0.010). Significant negative correlation was determined between anxiety and the Quality of Life Scale sub-parameters of general health, physical health, psychological health, and environment. Positive correlation was found between Covid-19 severity and anxiety, and negative correlation between Covid-19 severity and physical health (p<0.001). Conclusion: Higher anxiety was determined among women and married patients in this study, and quality of life (in the four sub-parameters) decreased as anxiety increased. Physical health decreased, while anxiety increased, with the severity of Covid.

Introduction The major salivary glands can be stimulated by chewing gum to increase saliva flow and decrease xerostomia. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chewing gum on dry mouth, interdialytic weight gain, and intradialytic symptoms in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods This prospective randomized controlled single-blind study was conducted with patients who had been treated for at least 6 months with sessions 3 days a week for 4 hours at two HD units. Patients were randomly allocated to chewing gum group or the control group. In the chewing gum group, gum was chewed for 10 minutes six times a day, and when the patients felt mouth dryness or were thirsty. In the nonchewing gum group, gum was not chewed. The patients were followed-up for 3 months. A total of three saliva samples were taken before starting treatment at the first, 12th, and 36th HD session. Data were collected with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Hemodialysis Patients Fluid Control Scale, Dialysis Symptom Index, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale at baseline, week 4, week 8, and week 12. Findings The study was completed with a total of 44 patients consisting of 22 patients in the each group. The second and third month VAS values (xerostomia) of the patients in the chewing gum groups were statistically significantly lower than those in the control group (P= 0.014,P < 0.001, respectively). The third month salivary flow rate in the chewing gum group was higher than the values in the control group patients (P < 0.001). Discussion It is anticipated that this study will raise nurses' awareness of dry mouth and encourage future studies on interventions to increase the salivary flow rate to prevent or treat dry mouth.
