Determining the Effects of Nasopharyngeal Suction With Negative and Positive Pressure: Randomised Controlled Trial
(Marmara Univ, inst Health Sciences, 2024) Kökkız, Rukiye; Okuroglu, Guelten Karahan; Ustun, Nuran; Tıbbi Hizmetler ve Teknikler Bölümü
Objective: The study aims to determine the effects of nasopharyngeal suction with negative and positive pressure on pain level, respiratory parameters, and mucosal irritation in infants. Methods: This study was conducted as a posttest randomized controlled experimental research. The data was collected at G & ouml;ztepe Training and Research Hospital between January and November 2020. While the positive pressure suction method was applied to the experimental group, the negative pressure suction method was applied to the control group. Results: It is determined that the pain level mean scores at the 1 st and 5 th minutes after the suction procedure are lower in the experimental group than in the control group (p=0.01). p =0.01). SpO2 values at the 1st, st , 5th, th , and 15th th minutes after the procedure are significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group (p=0.01). p =0.01). There is no statistically significant difference in the respiratory rate values between experimental and control groups (p>0.05). p >0.05). Conclusion: It is determined that the post-procedure pain level is lower and the SpO2 value is higher in the experimental group (positive pressure suction) compared to the control group (negative pressure suction). Both methods do not cause mucosal irritation, as well.

Does Prolotherapy Have an Effect on the Care of Pressure Injuries? a Pilot Study
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Eroglu, Nermin; Kokkiz, Rukiye; Eroglu, Hatice Eda; Kocoglu, Hasan
Background: This study contributes to wound healing with prolotherapy in people with pressure injuries. The study was planned and conducted as a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of prolotherapy on the care of pressure injuries. Methods: The study was carried out with patients with pressure injuries in the intensive care unit of a city hospital between April and June 2023. A power analysis was performed, and the sample size was calculated as 20 patients, including 10 in the intervention and 10 in the control group. The patients in the experimental group were given wound care with gelofusine as prolotherapy in the morning and evening for three days, and the injury site was covered with a sterile sponge and fixation tape. The patients in the control group were treated with saline in the morning and evening for three days. In both groups, the wound width, depth, and length were measured and evaluated prior to each intervention for three days. Results: In the study, a significant difference was found between the mean ages of the participants in the experimental and control groups (p < 0.05). The decrease in width measurements in the experimental group was found to be statistically significant compared to the previous measurements, while the increase in width measurements in the control group was significant compared to the previous measurements (p < 0.05). Depth measurements decreased statistically significantly in the experimental group, while they increased significantly in the control group compared to previous measurement values (p < 0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, it was determined that the administration of gelofusine for pressure injuries as prolotherapy in the experimental group may be more effective in wound healing than saline treatment applied in the control group. Further studies are warranted.

The Effect of Formative Assessment on Students' Clinical Knowledge, Skills and Self-Efficacy Levels
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Kökkız, Rukiye; Inangil, Demet; Turkoglu, Ilayda; Tıbbi Hizmetler ve Teknikler Bölümü
Aim: This research aims to examine the effect of using formative assessment methods in clinical education on students' knowledge, skills and self-efficacy levels. Background: Formative assessment is used as a method designed to identify areas where students fall short and provide feedback for improvement. Formative assessment and feedback represent fundamental characteristics of quality teaching in higher education and play a decisive role in learning in nursing education. Although educators observe students performing practical tasks during clinical education, evaluation is not made by a structured control list. Therefore, just as nursing students are evaluated with "Skill Checklists" in the OSCE exam, there is a need to evaluate nursing skills during patient care in the clinical field. Design: The study was designed as a pre-test post-test randomized controlled experimental study. Method: Before the research, both groups filled out the self-efficacy form. The experimental group received formative assessment throughout the course. At the end of the semester, all students were given a skills test and asked to fill out the self-efficacy form again. Finally, a knowledge test was administered to the entire class. Results: The average knowledge score of the experimental group is higher than the control group. It was determined that there was a statistical difference of 16.54 points in the average skill scores between the groups. Posttests showed significant differences in skills such as breathing-cough exercise, basic glycemic measurement, subcutaneous injection and blood collection skills. Conclusion: It was determined that the formative assessment method increased nursing students' knowledge, skills and self-efficacy levels regarding basic nursing skills.
