Dal, Nursel Alp; Beydağ, Kerime D.; Doğan, Aysel
Effective control of pain after cesarean delivery is essential, as poorly managed postoperative pain is a common complication that can impair maternal recovery and early infant care. This prospective, randomized, single-blind controlled trial, conducted in the postpartum unit of Kocaeli University Hospital, Kocaeli, Türkiye, between March 2021 and June 2022, compared the effect of a single neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) session added to standard postoperative care against standard care alone. Seventy-six consenting women were randomized in equal numbers to the intervention (standard care plus NLP) or control (standard care only) group. The primary outcome was pain intensity, measured with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before and after the intervention period. Mean follow-up pain scores were significantly lower in the intervention group (2.37±1.792) than in the control group (6.68±2.068; p<0.001), while baseline pain scores and maternal demographic and obstetric characteristics did not differ significantly between groups. Adding a single NLP session to standard postoperative care effectively reduced pain after cesarean delivery, supporting its use as a non-pharmacological adjunct in postoperative nursing and midwifery practice. African Journal of Reproductive Health © 2026.; Une prise en charge efficace de la douleur après une césarienne est essentielle, car une douleur postopératoire mal gérée constitue une complication fréquente susceptible de nuire au rétablissement de la mère et aux premiers soins prodigués au nourrisson. Cet essai prospectif, randomisé, contrôlé en simple aveugle, mené dans l’unité post-partum de l’hôpital universitaire de Kocaeli, à Kocaeli, en Turquie, entre mars 2021 et juin 2022, a comparé l’effet d’une seule séance de programmation neurolinguistique (PNL) ajoutée aux soins postopératoires standard à celui des soins standard seuls. Soixante-seize femmes ayant donné leur consentement ont été randomisées en nombre égal dans le groupe d’intervention (soins standard plus PNL) ou dans le groupe témoin (soins standard uniquement). Le critère d’évaluation principal était l’intensité de la douleur, mesurée à l’aide de l’échelle visuelle analogique (EVA) avant et après la période d’intervention. Les scores moyens de douleur observés lors du suivi étaient significativement plus faibles dans le groupe d’intervention (2,37 ± 1,792) que dans le groupe témoin (6,68 ± 2,068 ; p < 0,001), tandis que les scores de douleur initiaux ainsi que les caractéristiques démographiques et obstétricales des mères ne présentaient pas de différence significative entre les groupes. L’ajout d’une seule séance de PNL aux soins postopératoires standard a permis de réduire efficacement la douleur après une césarienne, ce qui plaide en faveur de son utilisation comme complément non pharmacologique dans la pratique infirmière et obstétricale postopératoire.

Şahin, Melek; Şenel, Bilgin; Şenel, Mine; Ünlükal, Ceren
The coronavirus pandemic, which affects the whole world, continues to spread rapidly. The pandemic has reached a serious extent and the risks are getting deeper. The sector most affected by the pandemic has been the health sector and health personnel have become an indispensable element of this process. The people at highest risk of being infected are nurses who are in contact with or are responsible for the care of COVID-19 patients. This study was conducted to investigate the transmission risk of COVID-19 infection among nurses who care for patients in intensive care units.In this study, to prevent the transmission of infection from patient to nurse, possible failures in the process were determined by experts selected from nurses, and risk analyses were performed using Failure Mode and Effects Analysis and Entrophy-based Grey Relational Analysis methods. In this study, the three most probable and high-priority failure types were determined in the failures made in the procedures for the transmission of the infection from the patient to the nurse.There is a need to increase the quantity and quality of intensive care unit care personnel to manage new waves of COVID-19 or possible pandemic situations effectively.

Baris, Veysel Karani; Yesiltepe, Akgun; Celik, Gulbahar
Aim: To identify patterns and predictors of nurse turnover intentions based on years of nursing experience using a cluster analysis approach. Background: Nurses with varying years of experience have different characteristics. These differences can also lead to distinct patterns and predictors of turnover intentions. Methods: For this descriptive study, 785 nurses from hospitals across different regions of Türkiye participated in a survey. Data was collected through online questionnaires between April and May 2022. The K-means unsupervised machine learning algorithm was employed to classify nurses into distinct clusters based on their experience. Multiple linear regression analyses were conducted to identify the predictors of turnover intention specific to each cluster. The STROBE guideline was followed for reporting. Results: Cluster analysis grouped nurses into three categories by experience level: low, medium and high. The medium-experience group had the highest turnover intention, whereas the high-experience group had the lowest. Work stress was the only common predictor across all groups. Low income predicted turnover only for the low-experience group, and gender was significant only for the medium-experience group. Conclusion: This study revealed that turnover intention and its predictors vary by experience level, indicating a need for retention strategies tailored to nurses' years of experience. By considering subgroup characteristics, policymakers can develop targeted interventions to enhance nurse retention.

Kaplan Serin, Emine
Physical activity levels of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are low due to the symptoms of COPD. The patients diagnosed with COPD are headed for complementary and alternative treatments to reduce the COPD symptoms, facilitate the treatment, and increase their physical activity. One of these treatments is QiGong, which is not yet common in our country. QiGong is a type of exercise based on ancient Chinese medicine, and mainly consists of active and passive exercises. These exercises open energy channels in the body, and thus prevent and/or heal diseases by establishing energy balance in the body through meditation, breath control, and bodily exercises. According to a literature review abroad, there are a small number of scientific studies related the therapeutic effect of QiGong exercises on symptom control, anxiety, reduction of stress and depression, increase in physical activity and quality of life, and the development of lung function of patients with COPD. By considering the educative role of nurses, it is important that the nurse has adequate knowledge of the treatment and care of patients with COPD. Therefore, this review is compiled to be informative about the effects of QiGong in the treatment of COPD, and assistance to subsequent studies.

Basit, Gülden; Erkuş Küçükkelepçe, Gülhan; Arslan Şeker, Sevda
Introduction: Professional values give meaning and direction to clinical practices by providing a philosophical framework for nursing practices. The internalization of professional values is quite effective in providing professional service and is very important in terms of service quality. Design: This descriptive study has been conducted to determine the relationship between nurses' professional values and caring behaviors. Methods: A total of 176 nurses participated who worked in hospitals in this study. The data were collected online using the Nurse Information Form, Nurses Professional Values Scale-Revised (NPVS-R), and Caring Behaviors Assessment Tool Nursing Version-Short Form (CBAN-SF). Data analysis was performed using SPSS software, the Mann–Whitney U test, the Kruskall–Wallis test, and the Spearman correlation coefficient. Results: Of the nurses participating in the study, 66.5% are between the ages of 21–30, 80.7% are female, and 71% are university graduates. No statistically significant difference was found regarding professional values between the mean scores from the NPVS-R and CBAN-SF in terms of the nurses' age, gender, position, working style, clinic at which they work, or their educational status. The nurses scored high on the NPVS-R and CBAN. A moderate, significant, and positive relationship was found between nurses' overall scores on the NPVS-R and CBAN-SF. Conclusion: As nurses' perceptions of professional values increase, their perception toward assessing care behaviors also increases. In addition, a relationship exists between nurses' education levels and assessment of care behaviors and between their work experience and their perceptions of professional values. Conducting studies on the subject using different designs is recommended.

Kaplan Serin, Emine; Alp Dal, Nursel; İkde Öner, Özlem
The objective of this study is to determine the communication skills and empathic tendencies of nursing and midwifery students to sexuality/reproductive pattern section of the care plan. The sample of this descriptive cross-sectional study consists of 665 students studying in the midwifery and nursing department of a state university in Eastern Anatolia Region of Turkey and agreeing to participate in the study as volunteers. Data of the study were collected using “Descriptive Characteristics Form for Students”, “Communication Skills Assessment Scale (CSAS)” and “Emphatic Tendency Scale”. Obtained data were assessed by using number, percent, mean and standard deviation as well as Mann–Whitney U Test, Kruskal–Wallis Test, t test, ANOVA and Pearson correlation test. The average age of students participating in the study was 20.81 ± 1.80 years, and 53.8% of them expressed that the society they lived in had a restrictive perspective on the concept of sexuality. A great majority of students think that cultural structure and religious beliefs are significant factors in the formation of sexual taboos. The study found out that 64% of the students could not ask the questions in the reproductive pattern section of the care plan, most of them did not want to be asked it themselves, and 70.5% of them were uncomfortable with asking these questions due to privacy. Approximately fifty-six percent (56.1%) of students thought that the concept of sexuality did not fall within a nurse’s responsibilities. Approximately fifty-six percent (56.1%) of them did not want to focus on the subject more during courses. Average total score of students on CSAS was 98.74 ± 13.05, average total score on the emphatic tendency scale was 67.31 ± 7.98 and a positive correlation was found between both scores. In this study, it was detected that students left the sexuality/reproductive pattern section in the care plan empty, therefore they did not/could not handle a patient’s potential problems related to sexuality/reproductive pattern.
