Nurses in private hospitals accepted their managers more transformational (chi 2K-W=23.06; p=0.000), but also they stated that approaches of transactional leadership were acted. Conclusion: It has been detected that leadership behaviors have a positive impact on nurses' satisfaction, all of the nurses containing especially nurses in private hospitals have perceived their managers as tranformational leader.Öğe Examining effects of the flipped classroom approach on motivation, learning strategies, urinary system knowledge, and urinary catheterization skills of first-year nursing students(Wiley, 2022) Aksoy, Berna; Gurdogan, Eylem PasliAim In nursing education, innovative approaches are crucial to enhancing students' competence and preparing them to respond to the complex healthcare needs of society. The aim of the current study was to compare the efficacy of the flipped classroom and traditional educational approaches on the acquisition of urinary system knowledge and skill level, and on the motivation and learning strategies of first-year nursing students. Methods This study was implemented with a single blind and randomized controlled design in the nursing department of a university's faculty of health sciences between December 2018 and December 2019, with 94 first-year undergraduate nursing students (47 in the experimental group adopting a flipped classroom approach, 47 students in the traditional approach control group). The study was conducted over pre-test and posttest phases for both groups. Results The experimental group had higher mean scores than the controls in intrinsic goal orientation, task value, self-efficacy, rehearsal, elaboration, and organization and effort regulation, but lower scores in test anxiety (p < 0.001). The theoretical and skill exam scores of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group (p < 0.001). Conclusion The flipped classroom approach was effective for improving urinary system knowledge and skill level, and for the motivation and learning strategies of nursing students. This innovative education approach can be recommended as a student-centered method in nursing education for teaching theoretical knowledge and evidence-based practices.Öğe Knowledge, Attitudes, and Practices of Nurses in Intensive Care Units on Physical Restraint Use and Factors Affecting Nurses' Decisions to use them(Turkish Soc Medical & Surgical Intensive Care Medicine, 2016) Gurdogan, Eylem Pasli; Ugur, Esra; Kinici, Ezgi; Aksoy, BernaObjective: Physical restraints are used in intensive care units (ICUs) to prevent patients from harming themselves. In this study, we identified the physical restraint practices of nurses in ICUs and investigated their knowledge on this subject and factors affecting their decisions to use restraints. Material and Methods: This was a descriptive and cross-sectional study. The sample group consisted of nurses (n=101) who worked in the ICUs of a university hospital and a state hospital in Edirne. Data were collected using the Questionnaire Form, which included working life and demographic characteristics of the nurses, and Attitudes, Levels of Knowledge, and Practices of Staff Regarding the Physical Restraint Questionnaire. Data were evaluated using percentages, arithmetic means, percentages, and Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests using IBM SPSS Statistics 21.0. Results: It was found that 62.4% of the nurses did not receive training on the use of physical restraints and that 81.2% of them practiced using physical restraints if required. The mean score of knowledge, attitude, and practice of the nurses on physical restraint use were 7.6+/-1.6, 30.4+/-4.2, and 36.8+/-3.7, respectively. A relationship was found between the knowledge score on physical restraint use and education on physical restraints (p=0.02) and between the attitude score on physical restraint use and the nurses' education degree (p=0.03). A statistical difference was found between the working units (p=0.002) and education on the use of physical restraints (p=0.000). This study found that only 38.6% of the nurses always used physical restraints on a physician's order. Conclusion: We found that although a majority of nurses working in ICUs did not receive training on the use of physical restraints, the level of knowledge on nurses' use of physical restraints and their attitudes to practice restraint use was positive. However, nurses' practice on the use of physical restraints on the order of the physician and the approval of enlightenment were not to the desired level during the practice of physical restraint use. It would be useful to focus on the responsibilities of nurses in relation to the topic of in-service training to be organized on the use of physical restraints.Öğe Levels of awareness of occupational and general cardiovascular risk factors among metal industry employees(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2015) Gurdogan, Muhammet; Gurdogan, Eylem Pasli; Ari, Hasan; Erturk, Mehmet; Genc, Ahmet; Ucar, Mehmet FatihObjective: Long-term exposure to physical, chemical, ergonomic and psychosocial environmental factors may lead to occupational cardiovascular disease in metal industry employees. This study aimed to determine levels of knowledge levels regarding occupational and cardiovascular risk factors among metal industry employees. Methods: The study was conducted between 2nd and 6th June 2014 with the participation of 82 employees. All were working in a medium-sized workplace in the metal industry. Data were collected by means of a questionnaire, which included sociodemographic characteristics and occupational cardiovascular risk factors, and a scale developed by Arikan et al. to measure awareness levels of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CARRF-KL). Results: The mean age of employees was 39.97 +/- 8.44. Of the participants, 58.5% stated that they had knowledge on cardiac disease risk factors. The mean CARRF-KL score was found to be 18.65 +/- 4.04. The percentage of employees stating that they had no knowledge on the occupational risks for such diseases was 79.3%, while 19.5% stated that job stress caused cardiac diseases. One individual (1.2%) stated that one of the chemical solvents used in the working environment was a risk factor. Conclusion: Although awareness among metal industry employees of cardiovascular risk factors was above average, it was determined that they do not have adequate information on occupational risk factors. Prolonged and unprotected levels exposure to environmental factors constitute a risk for cardiovascular disease. This information is important for the development of preventive cardiology.Öğe Nurses' perceptions of spiritual care and attitudes toward the principles of dying with dignity: A sample from Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) Gurdogan, Eylem Pasli; Kurt, Duygu; Aksoy, Berna; Kinici, Ezgi; Sen, AylaSpiritual care is vital for holistic care and dying with dignity.
