Article Operating Room Nurses' Attitudes Toward Patient Safety and Attitudes Toward Preventing Pressure Injuries: Descriptive and Regression Analysis(W.B. Saunders, 2025) Cetinkaya, M.M.; Taylan, S.; Eti Aslan, F.Purpose This study was conducted to determine the relationship between patient safety attitudes of operating room nurses and their attitudes toward the prevention of pressure injuries. Design The study is a descriptive regression study. Methods The study data were collected from 102 nurses working in the operating room of a private hospital between September 2 and October 10, 2024. The sample size, which was known before the study, was determined by power analysis. Data were collected using a personal information form, a patient safety attitude scale, and a pressure ulcer prevention attitude scale. Descriptive statistics (frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations) were used to analyze the data. Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to compare groups. The correlational relationship between the patient safety attitude scale and the pressure injury prevention attitude scale was evaluated by Pearson correlation analysis. The predictors of all subdimensions of the nurses' attitudes toward pressure injury prevention scale were evaluated by stepwise multiple linear regression analysis. Findings The mean age of the operating room nurses (56.9%) who participated in the study was between 20 and 30 years, 63.7% were female, 77.5% had a bachelor's degree, 39.2% had worked for less than 5 years, and 92.2% were scrub nurses. A high school education and less than 5 years of experience were found to be negative predictors of attitudes toward pressure injury prevention. Working conditions, job satisfaction, and teamwork subdimensions of the patient safety attitude scale were found to be significant predictors of attitudes toward pressure injury prevention. Conclusions The findings of the study revealed that operating room nurses' attitudes toward patient safety and the prevention of pressure injuries were significantly related to variables such as educational level, professional experience, job satisfaction, teamwork, and safety climate. © 2025 The American Society of PeriAnesthesia Nurses.Article A Randomized Trial of Cervical Stabilization Exercise Training via Telerehabilitation for Migraine(W.B. Saunders, 2025) Dusgun, Elif Sena; Karahan, Nesrin; Toprak Çelenay, Şeyda; Celenay, Seyda ToprakPurpose: To compare the effects of cervical stabilization exercise training via telerehabilitation (CSET-T) in addition to standard treatment on pain, forward head posture, cervical mobility, muscle performance, functional status, sleep quality, and quality of life in individuals with migraine in comparison to the standard treatment alone. Methods: The control group (n = 20) received standard treatment alone (medication+recommendations). The stabilization group (n = 20) was given CSET-T in addition to standard treatment 3 days a week for 8 weeks. Pain characteristics were assessed by using a pain diary, whereas forward head posture and cervical mobility were measured using a goniometer, cervical muscle performance (CMP) by using a pressure biofeedback unit, functional status by using the Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS), sleep quality by using the Jenkins Sleep Scale (JSS), and quality of life by using the Headache Impact Test-6 (HIT-6). Results: Given the group-time interaction, it was found that pain frequency, intensity, duration, MIDAS, JSS, and HIT-6 scores decreased more significantly in the stabilization group when compared to the control group (p < .05). Moreover, the craniovertebral angle, cervical range of motions, and CMP values increased significantly more in the stabilization group (p < .05). It was found that there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of compliance with standard treatment (p = .665). Conclusions: The study revealed that CSET-T in addition to standard treatment is superior to standard treatment alone in reducing pain, improving forward head posture, cervical mobility, muscle performance, functional status, and quality of life in individuals with migraine. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
