Publication Metadata only The determination of the pain relief approaches in emergency trauma units(Kare Yayıncılık, 2006) Aslan, F.E.; Şelimen, D.; N/A; Karaçay, Pelin; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 179331This definitive study has been performed to assess the approach to pain relief in emergency trauma units. The study population consisted of patients seen at the emergency trauma clinics of three different, state-owned, research hospitals in the city of Istanbul. A total of 375 patients with an age range of 18-65 were included. The data were obtained from an 18 question data sheet. Trauma was caused by a fall in 46.1% of the patients and 66.7% of the cases were out of building. Blunt trauma was the cause in 85.6%, 31.2% had head trauma, 38.1% exteremity injuries. of the patients enrolled in the study, only 17.1% (64 patients) had recieved analgesics. The most common analgesic medication group used was Nonsteroid Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID). According to these results, 82.9% of patients with pain due to trauma had not recieved analgesics and it can be concluded that pain in trauma patients is undertreated. / Bu çalışma, acil travma ünitelerinde ağrı geçirme yaklaşlımlarının belirlenmesi amacıyla tanımlayıcı ve karşlılaştırmalı olarak yapıldı. Araştırmanın evrenini; İstanbul il sınırları içerisinde yer alan kamuya ait üç farklı kuruma bağlı eğitim hastanelerinin acil travma ünitelerine başvuran hastalar oluşturdu. Örnekleme 18-65 yaş aralığında olan toplam 375 travmalı hasta alındı. Araştırma sonucunda; hastaların %46.1’inde travmanın düşme sonucu ve % 66.7’sinde yolda meydana geldiği, % 85.6’sında künt travma olduğu, %38.1’inin ekstremite bölgesinden yaralandığı, % 31.2’sine kafa travması tanısı konduğu saptandı. Araştırma kapsamına alınan acil hastaların sadece % 17.1’ine (64 kişi) analjezik verildiği, en sık kullanılan analjezik türünün Nonsteroid Antiinşamatuar ‹laçlar (NSA‹‹) olduğu bu ilaçların % 92.2 oranıyla intramüsküler (‹M) uygulandığı belirlendi. Bu sonuçlara göre travmanın doğası gereği tümünde değişik şiddette ağrı olan hastaların % 82.9’una (311 kişi) analjezik verilmediği ve travmalı hastalarda ağrı tedavisine gerekli önemin gösterilmediği söylenebilir.Publication Metadata only The validity and reliability of the Stoma Self-Efficacy Scale: A methodological study(Wiley, 2020) Yigitoglu, Eylem Togluk; N/A; Karaçay, Pelin; Karadağ, Ayişe; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; School of Nursing; 179331; 3549Aims To assess the validity and reliability of the stoma self-efficacy scale for Turkish-speaking individuals with stoma. Background Self-efficacy in stoma care is one of the most important variables requiring compliance for an increase in the quality of life and well-being of individuals with stoma. Design A methodological study. Methods This study used translation and back translation for the scale's language equivalence and expert opinion for the content validity. An expert panel and 10 individuals with stoma evaluated the scale for face validity. The scale's reliability was assessed by internal consistency, Pearson correlation, and test-retest reliability in a sample of 174 individuals with stomas. The scale's construct validity was tested with confirmatory factor analysis and exploratory factor analysis. Results The content validity index was .96, and Cronbach's alpha was .95. In the test-retest analysis, the intraclass correlation coefficients were high. In the factor analysis, two factors emerged from the scale, and after the confirmatory factor analysis and scale modification, the fit indices of the model were found to provide a good level of validity. Conclusion The Turkish version of the stoma self-efficacy scale is a valid and reliable tool to determine the levels of self-efficacy in individuals with stoma.Publication Metadata only A qualitative exploratory study of the effects of simulation on nursing students' self-efficacy beliefs for using English for professional purposes(Sage Publications Inc, 2022) N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; N/A; Karaçay, Pelin; Zeybekoğlu, Zuhal; Chizzo, Jacob Harvey; Middlebrooks, Amy Kathryn; Faculty Member; Other; Teaching Faculty; Teaching Faculty; School of Nursing; KOLT; School of Medicine; English Language Center; 179331; N/A; N/A; N/ABackground The health sector has become more international than ever because of patients' increased mobility and access to healthcare services. As a result, the ability to communicate in English has become critical for nursing students in countries where English is used as a foreign language. Aim This study aimed to highlight and understand the experiences of nursing students regarding the effect of simulation-based learning on their self-efficacy beliefs for using English for professional purposes. Methods The study was conducted with 28 third-year university nursing students enrolled in a required English course and participating in two nursing simulations conducted in English. Focus groups were conducted using semi-structured interview questions to elicit and understand the self-efficacy beliefs of nursing students for using English for professional purposes. The collected data were analyzed by using content analysis. Results The result of the study emerged under three themes: carrying out nursing duties by using professional discourse, building professional relationships with patients, and maintaining spontaneous conversations with patients. The overall results showed that while the students' self-efficacy beliefs increased for performing standard nursing duties and establishing rapport with patients, no increase was observed in their self-efficacy beliefs for holding a prolonged conversation with the patient. Conclusion This study's findings have implications for nursing programs in which English proficiency is considered an important program outcome for nurses who may be expected to work in both their own language and English.Publication Metadata only The best practice standards of simulation(Koç Üniversitesi HYO Semahat Arsel Hemşirelik Eğitim ve Araştırma Merkezi (SANERC), 2019) N/A; N/A; Karaçay, Pelin; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 179331The best practice standards of simulation published by the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL) are important guidelines for simulation educators.

Background : Incivility is a fundamental problem in nursing educational settings. Methods : This cross-sectional and analytic study comprised 330 faculty members from different schools of nursing in Turkey. A personal information form and the 12-item Incivility Scale were used to collect data. The data were analysed by using descriptive analysis, Mann–Whitney U and Kruskal–Wallis tests, Spearman's correlation test, linear regression tests and thematic analysis. Results : Faculty and research assistants who were single and holding master's degrees perceived high incivility (p < .05). There was also a significant, mildly negative relationship between age and incivility scores (r = −0.236). A strict hierarchical structure was revealed to also be a reason for incivility (p < .05). Conclusion : Further research is needed to determine the effectiveness of the solutions for faculty-to-faculty incivility. Implications for Nursing Management : This study can guide administrators regarding the causes and solutions of incivility within academic environments. By implementing strategies to increase awareness, administrators can become positive role models for faculty, providing a respectful and fair work environment to prevent incivility.Publication Metadata only Assessment of nursing students' attitudes and awareness towards professional research and development(AVES, 2020) Dinçer, Selin; Eker, Özlem; Deniz, Yıldız; Yazıcı, Özlem; N/A; Karaçay, Pelin; Faculty Member; VPRD-SANERC; N/A; 179331Objective: To assess nursing students' attitudes and awareness towards research and development and determine the affecting factors. Material and Methods: This study had a descriptive and correlational design. In total, 182 nursing students studying in two foundation universities in Istanbul participated in the study. Data were collected using the sociodemographic characteristics form and the nursing students' attitudes and awareness towards research and development scale. Results: The mean age of the nursing students was 20.91±1.93 years, 80.2% were women, 30.2% were first-year students, and 64.3% were Anatolian high school graduates. A total of 60.4% of the students stated that they did not take any course on research, 79.7% stated that they did not have any research experience, 72.5% stated that they did not follow scientific publications, 46.2% stated that they did not read scientific journals, and 63.7% stated that they did not receive training on how to access evidence-based information. The mean score of the students on the scale was 128±16.0. A significant statistical difference found between the students' total score on the scale and their sex, research experience, frequency of following scientific publications and reading scientific journals, and thinking of the educated to access evidence-based information (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was determined that nursing students were aware of research and development and had positive attitudes. Nursing students should be given training on how to access scientific knowledge in their undergraduate education, be asked to use evidence-based information in their assignments and be encouraged to participate in the nursing faculty research projects.Publication Metadata only The Turkish adaptation of the student satisfaction and self-confidence in learning scale used in simulation education(İstanbul Üniversitesi, 2017) Kaya, Hatice; N/A; Karaçay, Pelin; Faculty Member; School of Nursing; 179331Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the “Student Satisfaction and Self Confidence in Learning” scale published by the National League for Nursing. Method: This methodological study was conducted in two stages. In the first stage, the language adaptation of the scale to Turkish was performed via back-translation. To evaluate content validity, the scale was reviewed by nursing faculty members who were experts in simulation education. The content validity index was calculated based on these experts’ opinions. In the second stage, the reliability of the scale was evaluated. From June to November 2015, 120 nursing students who had previous experience with simulation volunteered to participate in the study. At this stage, test-retest reliability, Cronbach’s alpha coefficient and item-total correlations were evaluated. The construct validity of the scale was done using confirmatory factor analysis. Results: The content validity index of the Turkish version of the scale was appropriate (CVI= 0.87). After modification, it was found that the model was a good fit. Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient was 0.88. Removal of item 13 would have improved alpha to 0.90. test-retest intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.50. Conclusion: The results of this study determined that the Turkish version of the “Student Satisfaction and Self Confidence in Learning Scale” was valid and reliable and could be used in nursing research and practice in Turkey. / Amaç: Çalışma, Ulusal Hemşirelik Birliği (NLN) tarafından yayınlanan “Öğrenci Memnuniyeti ve Öğrenmede Kendine Güven Ölçeği”nin Türkçe formunun geçerlik ve güvenirliğini incelemek amacı ile gerçekleştirildi.
