Giriş: İnsanlar hastalık belirtilerin, ilaçların yan etkilerini azaltmak ve bağışıklık sistemini güçlendirmek amacıyla geleneksel tamamlayıcı alternatif tedavi yöntemlerine başvurmaktadır. COVID-19 salgını sürecinde her kesimden insanın tamamlayıcı uygulamalar ve tedbirler kapsamında geleneksel tedavi yöntemlerini, özellikle şifalı olduklarını düşündükleri bitkileri kullandıkları, çocukları için de bu yöntemlere başvurdukları düşünülmektedir.Amaç: Ailelerin COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde çocuklarının sağlığını korumak ve geliştirmek için başvurdukları geleneksel tamamlayıcı alternatif tedavi (GETAT) yöntemlerini belirlemektir.Materyal Metod: Tanımlayıcı tipte planlanan çalışmanın verileri, araştırmacılar tarafından oluşturulan "Tanıtıcı Bilgi Formu" kullanılarak google form aracılığı ile toplanılmıştır. Bu formda sosyo-demogratif veriler, COVID-19 pandemisi süreci ile ilgili sorular ve ailelerin COVID-19 pandemisi öncesi ve sürecinde kullandıkları GETAT yöntemlerini belirlemeye yönelik sorulardan oluşmaktadır. Verilerin tanımlayıcı analizleri yapılmıştır.Bulgular: Çalışmada ebeveynlerin % 88.4'ü kadın ve %52'si üniversite mezunudur. Çocuklarının ise %38.4'ü 7-13 yaş arasında ve %51'i erkektir. Ailelerin çocukları için COVID-19 pandemisi öncesi sağlığı korumak ve bağışıklığı güçlendirmek için GETAT yöntemleri kullananların oranı %38.9 iken COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde bu oranın %92.5 olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ailelerin bu süreçte çocukları için %99.9'unun bağışıklık sitemini güçlendirici, balık yağı ve vitamin içeren ilaçlar kullandığı saptanmıştır. Ayrıca ailelerin %31.8'inin sirke, %31.5'inin bal ve ürünlerini ve %24.5'inin ıhlamur gibi bazı besin ve bitkileri kullandıkları görülmüştür.Sonuç: Ailelerin COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde GETAT yöntemlerini daha sık kullandıkları belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca ailelerin çocukları için bazı besin ve bitkilerden oluşan GETAT yöntemlerine başvurdukları görülmüştür. Sağlık ekibinin ailelere COVID-19 pandemisi sürecinde çocuklarının sağlığı korumak ve geliştirme konusunda teknolojik araçlar yolu ile eğitim ve danışmanlık hizmeti sunmaları önerilmektedir.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of coronavirus phobia and anxiety states of the parents with 2–6-year-old children on their attitudes towards their children Methods: It was carried out the descriptive cross-sectional study. The study sample was composed of 275 parents of 2–6-year-old children in Turkey in winter 2021. During the data collection period, a ‘Descriptive Information Form, COVID-19 Phobia Scale, Beck Anxiety Scale, and Parental Attitude Scale’ were generated on Google forms, and the link was sent to the parents through social media. Results: The parents' mean score from the Beck Anxiety Scale was 33.40±9.97 and their mean score from COVID-19 Phobia Scale was 53.22±15.28. According to the Parental Attitude Scale, mean democratic attitude score of the parents was 73.73±6.09 and mean protective attitude score was determined as 30.55±5.98. A positive correlation was found between Beck Anxiety Scale and COVID-19 Phobia Scale (r= .461; p= .000). Conclusion: Severe anxiety symptoms and a moderate level of coronavirus fear were detected among the parents in the study. Moreover, anxiety and coronavirus phobia were positively correlated with authoritarian and protective parental attitudes. To support and follow children and parents by the nurses in physiological and psychological aspects through innovative approaches is very important
Aim: Nursing students face many patients with chronic diseases who require care in the terminal period. This study aims to determine the student nurses' experiences about the end-of-life care provided to children in the terminal period approaching death. Methods: The study was conducted using focus group interviews, which are qualitative research methods. The sample was constituted of 12 intern student nurses who were working in the pediatric hospital of the university at 2017 in Turkey. The research inclusion criteria for students was that they must have provided palliative care or seen death. The focus group interview was held in the meeting room at the Nursing School on the day and hour when the nurses were available with four researchers. Data were analyzed together by using conventional content analysis. Results: It was found that nursing students providing care to pediatric patients in the terminal period experience many feelings including fear, nervousness, helplessness, shock, emotional deterioration, etc. and they do not know how to deal with these emotions. These students believe that symptom management and self-care requirements should be managed in the best way and that emotional support should be provided. The students pointed out the families' information needs and emotional support needs. They also emphasized the emotional effects associated with themself. Conclusion: Nursing education programs should be reviewed to include coping with the students' own emotions, as well as the education of the family on symptom and self-care management, emotional support. Suggestions: Organize individual and group meetings to provide nursing students opportunities to express their feelings regarding the care and death of the child in the terminal period.
