Günes, Huseyin; Okutan, Serafettin; Dolanbay, Nihal; Bostanci, Meric Emre
Purpose: This study was conducted to determine the general anxiety and attitudes of surgical nurses toward artificial intelligence. Method: This study was designed as descriptive and correlational with the participation of 335 surgical nurses working in two different hospitals in the Eastern and Central Anatolia regions of Turkey between 06.02.2025-01.06.2025 dates. Results: The scores obtained from the positive and negative attitude sub-dimensions of the General Attitudes towards Artificial Intelligence Scale are moderate (40.24 +/- 8.94, 23.65 +/- 6.61). The total score of the Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale is moderate (46.09 +/- 13.65). A low level of negative correlation was found between the positive attitude scores of the General Attitudes towards Artificial Intelligence Scale and the total scores of the Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale (r=-0.239, p<0.001). A high level of positive correlation was found between the negative attitude scores of the General Attitudes towards Artificial Intelligence Scale and the total scores of the Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale (r=0.710, p<0.001). In the multiple linear regression model established, it was seen that 53% of the anxiety toward artificial intelligence was explained by the general attitudes towards artificial intelligence variable, which is the independent variable in the model (R2=0.530). Conclusion: As the positive attitudes of surgical nurses toward artificial intelligence increase, their anxiety levels toward artificial intelligence decrease. It is necessary to provide continuous education and support to surgical nurses about artificial intelligence applications.

İncele - MakaleAçık Erişim2025Scopus SJRQ1Perceptions of Good Death and Death Literacy Levels of Nurses Working in Palliative Care: A Cross-Sectional Study
Seven, Ahmet; Sari, Ebru Sönmez; Semerci, Vahide
Aim: To determine the perceptions of good death and death literacy levels of Turkish nurses working in palliative care services and the factors affecting their perceptions of good death. Background: Death literacy is defined as the acquisition of the knowledge and skills necessary to understand end-of-life care and contribute to a good death. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, sample consisted of 162 Turkish nurses working in palliative care services. The data were collected using the Socio-demographic Information Form, Good Death Scale (GDS), and Death Literacy Index (DLI). The data were analyzed by Pearson correlation, independent sample t test, and one-way ANOVA. Hierarchical regression analysis was performed to determine the predictors of good death perception. The STROBE checklist was used in the study. Findings: The mean GDS score was 59.53 ± 4.49, and the mean DLI score was 100.70 ± 12.11. It was determined that those who are older, male, married, have worked longer in the clinic, and have knowledge about a good death have higher average scores on the GDS. The models explain 91.8% of the variance in the perception of good death. Discussion: Our study shows that as death literacy increases, nurses’ perceptions of a good death tend to decrease. This situation suggests that as nurses’ knowledge and awareness of death increase, the inadequacies of the healthcare system and the impact of limited resources may cause them to develop a more negative perception. Death literacy in nurses is a new concept, and further studies are needed in different cultures. Conclusions: In the study, it was observed that death literacy levels and good death perceptions of nurses were above average, and as the death literacy level of nurses increased, their good death perceptions decreased. Age, gender, marital status, working time in the clinic and knowledge about good death affect the perception of good death of nurses working in palliative care. Implications for nursing: By improving their understanding of death literacy and the principles of a good death, palliative care nurses can achieve greater job satisfaction and develop a more positive attitude toward end-of-life care. In addition, systematically incorporating death literacy into nursing education curricula and continuing professional development programs, and the establishment of evidence-based clinical guidelines and standard care protocols will improve the quality of palliative care services.

Çetinkaya Özdemir, Serap; Semerci Çakmak, Vahide; Ziyai, Nasibe Yağmur; Çakir, Emine
Background: Two earthquakes of magnitude 7.7 and 7.6 occurred in the Turkish province of Kahramanmaraş in 2023. The earthquakes resulted in serious losses of life and property in 11 provinces, and the injured were transferred to other provinces for treatment and care. To date, no studies on the experiences of intensive care nurses providing care to earthquake victims after the Kahramanmaraş earthquake sequence have been identified. Aim: The aim of the present study is to explore the experiences of intensive care nurses providing care to earthquake victims who were transferred to other provinces. Study Design: A qualitative descriptive research design with conventional content analysis was used. Snowball sampling was used in the selection of intensive care nurses. Data saturation was achieved with 20 nurses. In-depth interviews were conducted with the participants through phone between March 8 and March 15, 2023. MAXQDA 20 software was used for data analysis. The COREQ checklist was used to guide the reporting of the study. Results: Twenty nurses were recruited. Four themes emerged from the data: challenges in caregiving processes; psychological challenges; ethical situations; urgent need for training and support. Conclusions: After the Kahramanmaraş earthquake sequence, described by some as the disaster of the century, nurses encountered patients with unique needs that they had never encountered before and tried to cope with the constantly changing health conditions. For this reason, they were affected psychologically and experienced challenges in caregiving processes. Relevance to Clinical Practice: Conducting comprehensive training for diseases common among earthquake victims, developing new protocols for providing care to earthquake victims, developing more action plans for nurses, and psychologically supporting intensive care nurses would facilitate the caregiving processes.

Kaya, Ayten; Kirbaş, Zila Özlem; Medin, Suhule Tepe
Background: By evaluating nurses’ attitudes and behaviors regarding narcotic drug safety and addiction, effective strategies need to be developed for combating addiction in healthcare institutions. This study, aimed at providing an insight into patient and staff safety issues through the formulation of health policies, aimed to evaluate nurses’ attitudes and behaviors regarding narcotic drug safety and addiction. Methods: The study was conducted in a descriptive cross-sectional design. It was carried out with 191 nurses in a public hospital between March 2023 and August 2023. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews, gathering socio-demographic information and utilizing the Addictive Substance Attitude Scale. The data were analyzed using independent sample t-tests, one-way ANOVA tests, and regression analysis (P <.001 and p <.05). Results: The average age of the participants was determined to be 36.58 ± 8.40. It was reported by 85.3% of nurses that narcotic drug follow-ups in their units were conducted according to procedures. In the study, it was found that 63.9% of nurses did not know the procedure to be followed towards a healthcare professional identified as a narcotic substance addict. The total mean score of the Addictive Substance Attitude Scale of nurses participating in the study was 74.27 ± 14.70. A significant difference was found between the total scores of the scale and the level of education of nurses, the follow-up status of the drugs in the unit where they work, their status of receiving narcotic drug addiction training, and their routine use of the half-dose drug disposal form (p <.05). Conclusions: The findings of this study underscore the importance of evaluating nurses’ attitudes and behaviors regarding narcotic drug safety and addiction. These results indicate the need for nursing administrators, particularly in terms of patient and staff safety, to adopt more effective policies and strategies.

Sönmez Sari, Ebru; Kitiş, Yeter
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of motivational interviewing based on the trans-theoretical model promoting physical activity in older adults. Methods: A randomized controlled trial study was conducted with 117 older adults (intervention group: 58, and control group: 59) between April and November 2019. The data were collected via a questionnaire, trans-theoretical model scales, the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly, the Katz Activities of Daily Living scale and a pedometer. The 24-week intervention consisted of regular motivational interviewing. The control group received usual care at the family health centre. Results: Following the intervention, the Intervention Group showed significant improvements Exercise Processes of Change Scale, Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale and Perceived Benefits of the Decisional Balance Scale for Exercise. There was a significant difference between the groups in terms of stages of change. In the Intervention Group, 81.5% were in the contemplation stage in the pre-test, while in the post-test, 70.4% had transitioned to the action stage. In contrast, in the control group, 62.5% were in the contemplation stage initially, but in the post-test, only 9.3% had reached the action stage. The mean number of step counts increased significantly in favour of the Intervention Group, as did the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly total score. Conclusion: The trial indicated that after the trans-theoretical model-based motivational interviewing, the stages of change among the older adults improved, as did their exercise behaviours. It is recommended that the trans-theoretical model and motivational interviewing be used by nurses to improve healthy lifestyle stage behaviours in older adults.
