This study is to determine the complications developing in patients undergoing continuous renal replacement therapy in an intensive care unit and nursing interventions to prevent these complications. Along with the socio-demographic and clinical characteristic of the patients, complication development status and nursing interventions for developing complications were determined. Data were evaluated with mean, standard deviation and frequency. In this descriptive study, a total of 48 CRRTs were applied to 27 patients hospitalized in the general intensive care units of a university hospital between 02 January 2019 and 02 January 2020. The average age of the patients is 62.92+20.13, APACHE II 25.92+5.33, the duration of stay in intensive care is 23.73+23.67 days. Common first three complications in patients undergoing CRRT; 75.0% hypotension, 47.9% vascular access problem, 43.8% system clotting. Nursing interventions related to common complications have been defined as giving the patient an appropriate position, checking the pressure indicators of the hemofiltration device, checking the arterial and venous pressures and ultrafiltration rate on the indicators of the device, hourly fluid inlet and outlet was followed, vital signs were monitored hourly. It was found that many complications developed in patients undergoing CRRT and nurses in the intensive care unit applied basic nursing interventions. There were not sufficient.

This study aimed to examine the impact of ethical leadership on perceived stress and job performance as per the literature. Ethical leaders' attitudes and behaviours in accordance with ethical principles and values have an impact on employee performance and perceived stress. In other words, employees in organizations led by managers who show ethical leadership have higher job performance and lower stress perceptions. In this respect, organizational productivity and employee satisfaction are observed to be high. To achieve this positive impact of ethical leaders on organizational productivity and employee satisfaction, organizations that want to bring service quality to the fore want to work with leaders who have ethical leadership characteristics. Taking into account the wishes and expectations of the members of the organization they work with, ethical leaders can be effective in creating an effective and productive working environment for the members of the organization. Ethical leaders, who make ethical decisions and act proactively as per universal principles in order to increase organizational efficiency, enable employees to work with higher performance. In conclusion, ethical leadership education should be included in the education of managers and they should be motivated to show ethical behaviour by using various incentives.

The youth period, which is included in the university period, is an interim period in which the behaviors of the individual who come out of childhood are not clearly settled, giving her a character and enabling her to reach adulthood. In this transition period, the communication of the young person with the society, her psycho-social and socio-economic status, the place where she stays during education are very important for young people and play a big role in shaping their personality. This research was conducted in order to determine the healthy life behaviors of students and the factors affecting it. The study is a descriptive type of research and the universe of the study was made up of students studying at Hasan Kalyoncu University in the academic year 2013-2014 (1597) and a sample of 640 students who participated in the study. The data were collected using the questionnaire used in the “Youth Risk Behavior Survey” developed by the researchers (Socio-Demographic (25 questions), Risky health behaviors (59 questions), Health service use (6 questions) were used. The data; analyzed using frequency distributions and chi-square test. Results: 52.8% of the students participating in the research were female and 47.2% were male. While 41.2% of the students reside with their families during their education, the rate of students staying at home alone is 10.4%. The rate of students who evaluated their general health status as good is 44.3%. Conclusion: As a result of our study, it can be recommended to add healthy life lessons to the curriculum and organize courses and seminars on this subject in order to increase students' awareness of healthy life and to lead a healthier life in the future.

COVID-19 pandemic may lead to changes in stress, sleep, physical activity (PA), and pain intensity related to the pregnancy. The study aimed to investigate the perceived stress, quality of sleep, PA, and pain intensity of pregnant women who were advised to stay at home as much as they could to provide isolation during the pandemic. The study included 149 pregnant women between April and May 2020. Demographics were recorded; Perceived-Stress Scale (PSS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF), and Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) were performed. According to social isolation duration, 79.2% of the participants were in social isolation for more than 21 days. Self-reported anxiety level was severe for 65.8% of participants. The mean PPS score (±SD) was 26.98±8.26, PSQI score was 6.14±2.87, IPAQ-SF score was 466.1±1421.28, and NPRS score was 4.42±2.65. When the participants were classified and compared according to the trimester, no statistical significance was found in PPS, PSQI, IPAQ-SF, and NPRS scores (p> 0.05). The correlation was low between PPS-PSQI scores (r=0.291, p0.001); NPRS and PSQI scores (r=0.198, p=0.016). As a conclusion, pregnant women reported moderate stress level, poor sleep quality, very low PA level, and moderate pain intensity in the pandemic.

In the scale adaptation study, which was carried out in a methodological type and aimed to perform the Turkish validity and reliability study of the COVID-19 prevention, recognition and home management self-efficacy scale, in order to determine the sample size, to reach the participants 5-10 times the total number of items in the scale and also for confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). It is recommended to get a number above 200. Therefore, the minimum sample size was determined as 95 people. Considering the confirmatory factor analysis, 216 people were reached. The data of the research were collected by snowball method using online survey method between June and August 2021. Individual identification form and COVID-19 prevention, recognition and home management self-efficacy scale were used to collect data in the study. In order to evaluate the validity of the scale, language, content and predictive validity were performed. In order to evaluate the reliability, invariance over time, Cronbach's alpha coefficient and item total correlation were made. The cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient of the scale was calculated as 0,90 for the overall scale and the scale was found to be reliable. In the study, the calculated value for the scope validity index of the scale was obtained as 0,92. As a result of the analysis, the kaiser-meyer-olkin (KMO) test value was determined to be 0.868 for sample adequacy. The lowest factor load value of the scale was determined as 0,457 and the highest value as 0,836. As a result of the study, it was determined that the scale is an applicable measurement tool with high reliability and validity, which can be used in Turkish society.

The main purpose of this research is the leukemia in children treated with chemotherapy, the effect of education to the patient's family and caring nurse on controlling oral mucositis. The study which is semi-experimental and analytical was conducted between April-May 2011 in the pediatric hematology-oncology service of two educational-research hospital and two university hospitals in Istanbul. In this study, the sampling was carried out with the mother (34), which constitutes 95% of the universe, and the nurses (40), which constitutes %98. It was found that mothers and nurses of children with leukemia who received chemotherapy had higher post-education oral practices, oral care and mouth-protecting nutrition behaviors compared to pre education. When we evaluated the differences of point averages between before education and after education; both mother and nurses group’s 3 sub-domain and total point averages are extremely different, after education it is seen that the points are dramatically increasing. It is seen that the trainings to be given to the mothers and nurses who care in chemotherapy symptom management will contribute to the control of oral mucositis.

Fifty-seven patients (30 females, 27 males) scheduled for lumbar surgery for various reasons were included in the study. Demographic and clinical information of the patients were recorded. The state of being informed about the surgery and the reasons for anxiety about the surgery were questioned. Pain intensity at rest, in activity, and at night were evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale and surgery-related anxiety levels with the Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Inventory preoperatively, postoperatively, and at discharge. Mean age of the patients was 55.00±9.37 years. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between the intensity of rest, activity, night pain, and the anxiety level in the preoperative period (p<0.05). Patients who were informed about surgery had lower anxiety levels (p<0.05). In the postoperative and pre-discharge evaluations, it was observed that there was a significant decrease in pain intensity and anxiety levels compared to the preoperative term (p<0.05). When evaluating the patient in the preoperative period, assessment of the level of anxiety related to surgery and informing about the surgical intervention will decrease the anxiety level and positively affect the postoperative clinical situation.
