Other İç Hastalıkları Hemşireliği Yüksek Lisans Tezlerinin Yayımlanma Durumu: Sistematik Derleme(2021) Özgül, Ecem; Karadağ, Songül; Curuk, Gulsum NıhalIntroduction: Transforming master's theses into publication is important for sharing scientific knowledge. Aim: This study was conducted to determine the conversion rate of internal medicine nursing master's theses made in Turkey into scientific articles. Method: Between December 2019 and February 2020, the thesis database of the Council of Higher Education of the Republic of Turkey was used. All master theses are held, as a legal requirement, and were searched for "Internal Medicine Nursing" and "Nursing" master theses completed between 2004 and 2018. The publication rate of these theses was found by searching for the names of thesis author and supervisor on the following databases: PubMed, Thomson Reuters Web of Science, Google Scholar, Turkish Medline, and Turkish Academic Network and Information Center National Academic Network. Results: More than thirty (31.4%) of 616 theses included in the study were published in Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded and Social Sciences Citation Index, 3.5% in Emerging Sources Citation Index, 25.0% in other international refereed journals, 19.9% in national academic network and information center, and 20.2% in other national refereed journals. Conclusion: It was determined that less than half of the master's theses in the field of internal medicine nursing were published and that, of these published theses, less than half appeared in journals covered by Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded, or Social Sciences Citation Index. Solutions must be generated to promote the Science Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded, or Social Sciences Citation Index publication of master theses.Article The Turkish Version of Hydration Risk Assessment Tool in Older Patients: Cross-Cultural Adaptation and Psychometric Evaluation(Galenos Publishing House, 2025-08-28) Söylemez, Burcu Akpınar; Akyol, Merve Aliye; Küçükgüçlü, Özlem; Atasoy, EzgiObjective: Dehydration is a common and serious issue among older adults, with significant implications for their health and well-being. Preventing dehydration in older adults requires a multifaceted approach that involves early identification of risk factors, accurate detection methods, targeted interventions, and ongoing monitoring to ensure adequate hydration. For this reason, the study was designed to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish adaptation of the Northumbria Assessment of Hydration (T-NoAH) among older patients. Materials and Methods: A methodological and descriptive approach was utilized in this investigation. After establishing linguistic validity, the study was conducted with a convenience sample of 360 older patients within 24 hours of admission to the hospital, using a descriptive information form and T-NoAH for data collection. The analyses performed included exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), discriminant validity assessment, internal consistency evaluation via Cronbach’s alpha, item-total correlation analysis, examination of ceiling and floor effects, and Hotelling’s T-squared test. Predictive accuracy was examined in the sample using a receiver operating characteristic curve, with serum osmolality as the reference test. Results: The tool had sufficient linguistic validity. The instrument consisting of 8 items and one factor was identified. This factor explained 39.24% of the total variance. Model fit indices were ≥0.90, as per CFA. Cronbach’s alpha was determined to be 0.73. There was no response bias identified, and there were no floor or ceiling effects. The optimal cut-off point (5 or more) showed sensitivity (70%) and specificity (89%) (area under the curve =0.795, 95% confidence interval, p<0.001) compared to non-dehydration group. Conclusion: This tool is a short, easily understandable and applicable measurement for assessing older patients’ hydration risk. It can be used by nurses to evaluate the risk of dehydration in older patients and to implement and evaluate effective interventions according to risk situations.Article Hemşirelik Öğrencilerinin İlaç Uygulamalarına İlişkin Bilgilerini Yeterli Bulma Durumları(2017) Şahin, Melek; Zaybak, Ayten; Taşkıran, Nihal; Ergin, Eda Yaşar; Telli, SevilAmaç: Karşılaştırmalı tanımlayıcı nitelikteki bu araştırma, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin ilaç uygulamalarına ilişkin bilgilerini yeterli bulma durumlarını belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Araştırmanın örneklemini, entegre ve klasik sistemde eğitim veren iki ayrı hemşirelik okulunda öğrenim gören 173 son sınıf hem- şirelik öğrencisi oluşturmuştur. Verilerin toplanmasında, öğrencilerin tanıtıcı özelliklerini ve ilaç bilgileri konusunda görüşlerini belirlemeye yönelik sorulardan oluşan anket formu kullanılmıştır. Veriler, SPSS 21.0 programında sayı, yüzdelik dağılımlar ile ki-kare testi kullanılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: İlaçlar ve ilaç uygulamaları hakkındaki bilgilerini yeterli bulan öğrenci oranı %12.7 olarak saptanmıştır. Öğrencilerin ilaçlar ve ilaç uygulamaları konusundaki bilgi yeterlilik durumları sorgulandığında en yüksek oranın ilaçların veriliş yolları (%52.6), en düşük oranın ise ilaç-ilaç etkileşimleri (%13.9) olduğu belirlenmiştir. Yapılan analizde okullara göre öğrencilerin kendilerini yeterli bulma durumlarının de- ğişmediği saptanmıştır (p>0.05). Sonuç: Bulgular doğrultusunda hemşire adaylarının ilaç uygulama hatası yapma olasılığının yüksek olduğu ve öğrencilerin farmakolojik bilgilerinin güçlendirilmesinin güvenli ilaç uygulamalarında önemli bir gereklilik olduğu söylenebilir.Article Evaluation of Anxiety, Depression, and Insomnia Levels of Healthcare Professionals After Inactive Covid-19 Vaccination (coronavac)(2022) Koçak, Abdullah Osman; Doğruyol, Sinem; Tekyol, Davut; Doğruyol, Talha; Avcı, Sinem; Akbaş, İlker; Demirhan, Recepbjective: The aim of this study was to examine changes in the levels of depression, anxiety, and insomnia after inactive COVID-19 vaccination among healthcare professionals working actively during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted from January 1, 2021, to June 30, 2021, using an online survey across frontline healthcare professionals in Turkey. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) scale were used to evaluate the mental health of the participants, and the Insomnia Severity Index-7 (ISI-7) was used to evaluate their sleep problems. The data obtained from two different periods, pre-vaccination and post-vaccination, were examined. Results: The study included 416 healthcare professionals. The frequency of depression, anxiety, and insomnia was 27.9%, 31.5%, and 41.1%, respectively, in the pre-vaccination period, and there was a decrease in these rates (22.8%, 21.9%, and 34.1%, respectively) in the post-vaccination period. The differences between the two periods were also statistically significant for the PHQ-9 (p=0.000), GAD-7 (p=0.002), and ISI-7 (p=0.038) scores. We determined that the presence of long weekly working hours, being female, living alone, and presence of psychiatric disease were effective in the development of depression and anxiety. Conclusion: Among frontline healthcare professionals, depression, anxiety, and insomnia symptoms and the frequency of the diagnosis of these clinical conditions increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, after the start of the immunization process, the frequency of these mental disorders and the anxiety levels of the healthcare professionals significantly decreased.
