    Nursing Students Thoughts and Knowledge Levels About Global Warming
    (Marmara Univ, inst Health Sciences, 2024) Gür, Kamer; Kolac, Nurcan; Çalık, Kesver Burcu; Nirgiz, Cansu; Doğan, Rıdvan
    Objective: The aim of this study is to determine nursing students’ thoughts and knowledge levels about global warming. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted with 236 nursing students studying at the faculty of health sciences of a state university between May and July 2022. Data were collected using a Sociodemographic Form, the Global Warming Questionnaire. Independent Samples t-test, One-Way ANOVA were used to evaluate the data. Results: Ninety-seven percent of the students stated that global warming was a public health issue. Students’ mean score on the global warming knowledge scale was 90.02±8.76. There was a significant difference between the mean scale score participating in activities on the subject, having received information/education on environment, climate change aside from undergraduate education, wanting to become a member of an environmental non-governmental organization, and school year (p <.05). Conclusion: Participants’ knowledge level about global warming was above the average value of the scale. However, they still needed information, greater sensitivity to participate in environmental non-governmental organizations, global warming activities. For all these reasons, it is recommended that nursing students increase their knowledge and sensitivity during their undergraduate education, learn ways to combat the adverse effects of climate change, put them into practice.

    Determining the Effects of Nasopharyngeal Suction With Negative and Positive Pressure: Randomised Controlled Trial
    (Marmara Univ, inst Health Sciences, 2024) Kokkiz, Rukiye; Okuroglu, Guelten Karahan; Ustun, Nuran
    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.
