Purpose
This study aimed to explore the impact of the peer education model on adolescents' knowledge levels regarding Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV vaccination.
Design and methods
The study was conducted quasi-experimentally in a pretest-posttest single-group design. The study sample consisted of 913 students enrolled in 9th, 10th, and 11th grades. The data of the study were collected between April and May 2023. Data were collected using the Demographic Information Form and the Human Papillomavirus Knowledge Scale (HPV-KS).
Results
It was determined that 8.8 % of the students had previously received information about HPV, of which 50 % had received this information through the media, and only 0.3 % of them had received the HPV vaccine. Before peer education, the mean HPV-KS score among students was 1.14 ± 3.54, while after peer education, the mean score increased to 23.78 ± 8.32, and this difference was found to be statistically significant (p < 0.005). Thus, it has been observed that the peer education model effectively enhances the knowledge level regarding HPV and the HPV vaccine among high school students.
Conclusions
The use of this model will help young people take healthy steps regarding risky sexual health. Moreover, it is recommended that nurses utilize the peer education model to promote healthy lifestyle behaviors and enhance knowledge on various health-related topics among adolescents, who constitute a significant at-risk group.
Practice implications
It is recommended that nurses utilize the peer education model to promote healthy lifestyle behaviors and enhance knowledge on various health-related topics among adolescents, who constitute a significant at-risk group.

High rates of medication non-adherence (52–73 %) in pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT), due to complex regimens and forgetfulness, increase life-threatening risks.
The mean SUS score from healthcare providers was 84.2, notably higher than the average expected score of 68, indicating successful usability of the BMT4me app. Thematic analysis highlighted themes of engagement, ease of use, and safety among providers, and ease of use and helpfulness among children and caregivers. This feedback refined the app to better serve families, patients, and providers.
A user-centered design approach, involving multiple stakeholders, was essential in developing BMT4me app. Feedback facilitated enhancements in app features and functionality. Pilot feasibility testing with caregivers is ongoing. Future research will assess the efficacy of digital interventions on clinical outcomes in children with complex treatment regimens.

Aim
To determine the effects of communication behaviors observed during discussion of home management of hospitalized children with long-term ventilator dependence on post-discharge quality of life and clinical outcomes.
Design
A descriptive, quantitative study of family caregiver and nurse communication.
Methods
Conversations between 100 family caregivers and 48 nurses were recorded and transcribed. Transcripts were coded for key communication behaviors: ask, listen, explain, negotiate roles, verify understanding and advocate. Quality of life measures and clinical outcomes were collected one week and one month post-discharge. Analysis included descriptive statistics and linear mixed-effects models.
Results
Each communication behavior was associated with quality of life outcomes. Family caregivers demonstrated more listening behaviors when there was poorer child quality of life (β = −1.52) and advocated more with increased child fatigue (β = 1.55). When family caregivers negotiated care roles with nurses, there was less child anxiety and mobility (β = −2.15, β = −1.54). Less child fatigue and more mobility were evidenced when nurses advocated (β = −1.49, β = 0.92). Better child quality of life was predicted by nurses asking family caregivers more questions (β = 1.03), while poorer child quality of life was evident when nurses negotiated care roles (β = −2.22). Overall, when family caregivers demonstrated a need or willingness to negotiate care roles with nurses, more respiratory infections were found post-discharge at one week (β = 1.23) and one month (β = 1.59).
Conclusion
Family caregiver and nurse communication can impact outcomes for hospitalized children with long-term ventilator dependence. Family caregivers advocate and negotiate roles to ensure support and appropriate care for themselves and their child.

to describe nurses' perceptions of using play in a pediatric onco-hematology setting.
Design and methods
A qualitative descriptive study was conducted in the pediatric onco-hematology department of a tertiary hospital in northern Italy. Eleven nurses working in the involved department were recruited via convenience sampling. Data were gathered through face-to-face interviews using a semi-structured guide. Data were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative approach.
Results
Four major themes emerged from the analysis: 1) The different purposes in using play, 2) A matter of time, 3) Choosing the most suitable game, and 4) Sharing celebrative moments as moments of interprofessional development. Nurses described play as a means to build trust, relieve parents, serve as an educational tool, and address children's needs. Although nurses recognized the limited time available, they wanted to manage their workload to accommodate play. They emphasized the importance of choosing suitable games and using playful moments as opportunities for fun and professional growth.
Conclusions
Therapeutic play should be systematically integrated into pediatric oncology care as it fosters trust, provides joy and relief, and supports the child and their parents.
Practice implications
Play should be incorporated into routine practice, ensuring children can access peer interaction and age-appropriate games. A multidisciplinary approach, with the involvement of trained professionals, should be fostered to support play-based care in pediatric oncology settings.

Background
Parents of technology-dependent children constitute a different population in society and face diverse problems during caregiving.
Methods
This study aimed to identify and visualize studies conducted from 1990 to 2024 on technology-dependent children, home care, and parental discharge education and determine global trends. A descriptive and bibliometric study design was employed. Data were obtained from the Web of Science Core Collection database, and bibliometric analyses were performed with performance analysis, visualization, and mapping using the Biblioshiny interface in the R software. Screening yielded a total of 157 publications. A total of 138 publications were included.
Findings
The keywords frequently used by the authors included “home care,” “technology-dependent children,” “palliative care,” “home mechanical ventilation,” “child,” “family,” and “pediatric.” Co-author keywords with moderate centrality and density are “home mechanical ventilation” (Betw = 106.47), “technology-dependent” (Betw = 106.47), “home mechanical ventilation” (Betw = 106.47). Each article had 4.41 co-authorships, with an international co-authorship rate of 6.52 %.
Conclusions
This study provided important data on studies focusing on technology-dependent children, home care, and parental discharge education.
Application to practice
Since the number of studies in the field is small, the findings of this study are essential in guiding researchers about gaps in the literature.

Vaccination is an invasive procedure that causes pain. Uncontrolled pain negatively affects all aspects of life, including health. This study aimed to determine the effects of the Helfer skin tap technique and Buzzy® application on the levels of pain and fear experienced by 4-year-old children during measles–mumps–rubella (MMR) vaccination.
Methods
This study adopted a randomized controlled experimental design. The study sample consisted of 96 children (Helfer skin tap technique group: n = 32, Buzzy® group: n = 32, control group: n = 32) who received MMR vaccination. Children in the Buzzy® and Helfer skin tap technique groups received their respective interventions before and after vaccine injection, while children in the control group received routine vaccine injection.
Results
Based on the parents' and nurse's observations, the pain and fear scores after vaccine injection were lowest in the Buzzy® group and highest in the control group. Based on the children's assessments, the pain scores after vaccine injection were lower in the Buzzy® group than in the Helfer skin tap technique group.
Conclusion
Buzzy® application and the Helfer skin tap technique have beneficial effects on children's pain and fear during MMR vaccination. Buzzy® application is more effective in reducing pain and fear during vaccine injection in children than the Helfer skin tap technique.
Practice implications
Nurses can increase the comfort of children by reducing pain during vaccination using Buzzy®.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality, content, and reliability of YouTube videos that address ostomy bag change techniques in children. As digital platforms are increasingly used for health-related information, especially for those caring for pediatric ostomy patients, this study aims to identify the strengths and limitations of available online resources.
Design
A descriptive, retrospective, and cross-sectional research design was used to evaluate YouTube videos focused on pediatric ostomy bag change techniques.
Subjects and setting
The study included a total of 33 YouTube videos identified through searches conducted between May 3 and May 30, 2024. Videos included infants, children, and adolescents and were selected based on their relevance to pediatric double pouch ostomy care.
Methods
Videos were scored using the modified DISCERN score and the Global Quality Scale (GQS) to assess video quality and reliability. A checklist based on established ostomy care guidelines was used for content analysis and identification of common procedural errors. The view rates, video/likes ratio, and popularity of the videos were calculated as the video power index. Data were analyzed using SPSS 27 and statistical significance was determined with a p-value of less than 0.05.
Results
The analysis showed that 54.5 % of the videos were uploaded by independent publishers and 45.5 % by healthcare institutions. Videos aimed at caregivers were the most common (66.7 %). The mean number of views was 24,026.57, with a mean modified DISCERN score of 2.53 and a GQS score of 2.80. There was also a positive correlation between video length and quality scores. Significant differences in video quality were found between those published by healthcare organizations and independent publishers, with healthcare organization videos generally scoring higher. The most common errors in the videos included inadequate stoma coverage and improper disposal procedures.
Conclusions
The study shows that there is significant variability in the quality and reliability of YouTube videos on how to change an ostomy pouch in children. Compared to videos produced by independent publishers, videos produced by healthcare institutions had higher quality and reliability. The findings underscore the need for improved educational resources and quality control in digital platforms in order to better support the caregivers of pediatric ostomy patients.

Aim
This study aims to examine the effect of the level of perceived social support in the postpartum period on maternal functioning and maternal attachment.
Methods
This study was conducted between January and May 2023 in two family health centers selected by simple randomization among 11 family health centers affiliated with the Health Directorate located in eastern Türkiye. The population of the study consisted of 410 mothers in the postpartum period who had babies aged 6–11 weeks old. Data were collected face-to-face using the “Personal Information Form”, the “Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support”, the “Barkin Index of Maternal Functioning Scale” and the “Maternal Attachment Scale”. Data analysis was performed using numbers, percentages, arithmetic means, independent groups t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis, and simple linear regression analysis.
Findings
A positive, moderately significant relationship was found between maternal attachment and maternal functioning (r = 0.554; p < .05). A positive, moderately significant relationship was found between maternal attachment and perceived social support (r = 0.585; p < .05). A positive, highly significant relationship was detected between social support and maternal functioning (r = 0.861; p < .05).
Conclusion
This study found that postpartum women's attachment levels increased with the increase in their maternal functioning. It was also found that mothers' attachment levels increased with the increase in their perceived social support levels. Social support levels were proven to be effective on maternal functioning as well as maternal attachment. Women's maternal functioning levels were found to increase with the increase in their social support levels.
Practice implications
In light of these findings, pediatric nurses and obstetric nurses have great responsibilities. Starting from the prenatal period and including the postnatal period, both the mother and everyone around her should be explained the importance of social support.
