    (Hacettepe Üniversitesi, 2024-09) Kavlak, Erdoğan; Erdoğmuş, Server; Kavlak, Ebru; Yalçın, Gülay; 392815; 308202
    Purpose: It is known that the health-related quality of life of children with neurological problems is adversely affected. But these problems also have a negative impact on the whole family. This study was conducted to examine the quality of life of children with mental and physical disabilities and their healthy siblings. Material and Methods: 82 children with mental and physical disabilities between the ages of 2-18 and their healthy siblings were included in the study. The sociodemographic data of the participants were recorded. The Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory was used to measure health-related quality of life, and the Gross Motor Function Classification System was used to evaluate the gross motor functions of children with disabilities. Results: 82 (48 boys, 34 girls) mentally and physically disabled children with a mean age of 9.87±5.06 years and 82 (34 boys, 48 girls) healthy siblings with a mean age of 12.68±3.65 were included in the study. When the quality of life of mentally and physically disabled children was examined, it was seen that there was no significant difference between the two groups (p>0.05). There was no significant difference between the quality of life of the healthy siblings of mentally and physically disabled children (p>0.05). Discussion: It was observed that the quality of life of healthy siblings of mentally and physically disabled children was similarly affected. It should not be forgotten that the quality of life of their families and healthy siblings will also be adversely affected during the treatment process of disabled children.

    Multisource reflections on assessment of nursing students' first clinical practice and predictions for 360-degree assessment: a qualitative study
    (Hacettepe Üniversitesi, 2023-12) Bayzat, Çiğdem; Sarmasoğlu Kılıkçıer, Şenay; 167438
    Aim: This study was conducted to explain the current situation regarding the assessment of nursing students during their first clinical practice and to determine the views on 360-degree assessment, an innovative approach, from a multi-source perspective. Material and Methods: In this qualitative case study, individual interviews were conducted with nine instructors, focus group interviews were conducted with twenty-three nursing students, and documents were examined. Data were collected between 7 August 2019–22 November 2020. The data were analyzed in line with the descriptive analysis approach. Results: While reflections on the current situation were generated in line with the findings obtained from three data sources, the context of predictions on 360-degree assessment was generated in line with the findings obtained from interviews with students and instructors. Reflections on the current situation context are analyzed under assessors, competencies, methods and tools, feedback, challenges, and suggestions themes. Predictions on 360- degree assessment context are analyzed under assessors, frequency, tools, setting, benefits, and challenges themes. Conclusion: According to the results of the data triangulation, the most important issues regarding the assessment of nursing students during first clinical practice were the high student/instructor ratio and the fact that only instructors are officially assessors. Instructors and students approached positively to the 360-degree assessment, but they also shared some concerns.

    Yoğun bakım hemşirelerinin yaşam sonu bakıma yönelik algıladıkları engellerin ve destekleyici davranışların belirlenmesi
    (Hacettepe Üniversitesi, 2023-12) Ağgün Yavuz, Güler; Sarmasoğlu Kılıkçıer, Şenay; 167438
    Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı yoğun bakım hemşirelerinin yaşam sonu bakım sunarken algıladıkları en önemli engellerin ve destekleyici davranışların belirlenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma kesitsel tanımlayıcı türde olup, evrenini Ankara Şehir Hastanesi’nde yoğun bakım ünitesinde çalışan 278 hemşire oluşturmuştur. Bulgular: Yoğun bakım ünitesi hemşirelerinin yaşam sonu bakım sunmaya yönelik algıladıkları en önemli ilk üç engel: “Hastanın kötü prognozunun aile bireylerince kabullenilmemesi”, “Hastanın ölüm anında aile üyelerinin onunla olmaması” ve “Aile bireylerince yaşam kurtarıcı tedbirler ile etkilerinin anlamının bilinmemesi” iken; algıladıkları en önemli ilk üç destekleyici davranış: “Hastanın ölümünden sonra aile üyeleriyle hekimlerin görüşmesi”, “Aile üyeleri tarafından imzalatılacak olan tüm evrakların sağlık çalışanı tarafınca üniteden ayrılmadan hazırlanması” ve “Hastanın ölümünden etkilenen hemşirenin bir süreliğine ayrılması durumunda diğer hastalar için hemşirelerin sorumluluklarını yerine getirmesi” olarak belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Yoğun bakım ünitesi hemşireleri tarafından yaşam sonu bakım sunmaya yönelik algılanan en önemli engeller hastaların aileleri ile ilgili olup, algılanan en önemli destekleyici davranışlar ise sağlık çalışanları ile ilgilidir. Ailelere hastalarının kötü prognozunu kabul etmelerini kolaylaştırıcı (psikolojik destek vb.) olanakların sunulması ve hekimlerin yaptıkları bilgilendirmeyi sağlayan koşulların anlaşılmasına ve devamlılığının sağlanmasına yönelik araştırmaların yapılması önerilmektedir.
