Surgical Nursing

This study aims to investigate the effect of the digital flashcard method, compared to traditional lecturing, on students' knowledge levels and self-efficacy perceptions regarding fluid-electrolyte balance in the surgical nursing course, within a Solomon four-group experimental design framework.

This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence-supported individualized discharge education for patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Participants will be assigned to either the intervention group, which will receive personalized AI-generated discharge education delivered through a nurse-avatar video in addition to standard verbal education, or the control group, which will receive standard discharge education only. The study will compare postoperative pain, anxiety, physiological stress response, recovery, and satisfaction with discharge education between the two groups. Outcomes will be measured during hospitalization and at the routine postoperative follow-up visit. The findings may help improve patient education methods and postoperative recovery in cardiac surgery patients.

This study aims to verify the accuracy of blood pressure, heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, anxiety level, and sleep cycle data measurements obtained from Samsung smartwatches compared to the currently accepted method used in patients with disc herniation undergoing the preoperative period.

This study was planned as a randomized controlled clinical trial to determine the effect of 4-7-8 breathing technique on shoulder pain and pulmonary function tests after laporoscopic cholecystectomy. A sample of 96 patients will be randomly assigned to the study and control groups. The study group will be administered the 4-7-8 breathing technique after LK, while the control group will be given routine care of the ward. Shoulder pain and pulmonary function tests will be measured in the first 24 hours and at discharge. The data obtained will be analyzed by appropriate statistical methods.
