Öğe The Effect of Comedy Films on Postoperative Pain and Anxiety in Surgical Oncology Patients(Karger, 2019) Saritas, Serdar; Genc, Hasan; Okutan, Serafettin; Inci, Ramazan; Ozdemir, Ahmet; Kizilkaya, GulnazObjectives: To determine the effect of watching Turkish comedy films on postoperative pain and anxiety in oncology surgical patients. Design: This study was conducted using a pre- and post-test randomized controlled trial model. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in a general surgery clinic of a hospital in eastern Turkey between January 2016 and January 2017. The sample of the study consisted of 88 patients (44 test, 44 control) selected by using the randomized sampling method. In the experimental group, funny videos from Turkish old comedy movies were watched for 10 min before surgery. Anxiety, measured by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and vital signs were measured before and after the experimental protocol. In the analysis of the data, descriptive statistics, chi(2) and t test were used. Results: The state-trait anxiety pre- and post-test mean score of the experimental group was found to be 39.59 +/- 3.66 and 37.54 +/- 3.52 before and after watching the video, respectively, indicating a statistically significant difference between these two values (p <= 0.05). No statistically significant difference was found between the pre- and post-test state-trait anxiety scores of the patients in the control group. The decrease from the pre- to post-test mean pain score was determined as 0.65 +/- 1.05 in the experimental group and 0.11 +/- 0.96 in the control group. A statistically significant difference was found between the groups' post-test mean pain scores (p <= 0.05). Conclusion: The study results suggest that watching Turkish comedy movie videos has a positive effect on postoperative pain and anxiety in surgical oncology patients.Öğe The Effect of Virtual Reality Glasses and Stress Balls on Pain and Vital Findings During Transrectal Prostate Biopsy: A Randomized Controlled Trial(Elsevier Science Inc, 2022) Genc, Hasan; Korkmaz, Medet; Akkurt, AbdullahPurpose: This study aimed to determine effect of virtual reality (VR) glasses and stress balls (SB) on patients' pain and vital signs during transrectal prostate biopsy. Design: This experimental research was conducted using a pre or post-procedure randomized controlled model. Methods: The study population consisted of 96 male patients who were admitted to the TRUS Unit of the Urology Department of a state hospital in southeastern Turkey for prostate biopsy. The patients were divided into three groups by block randomization as 32 for VR, 32 for SB, and 32 for the control group. A Patient Information Form and the Visual Analogue Scale were used to collect data. In data analysis, number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, chi-square, dependent group t-test, and ANOVA tests were used. Results: Comparing mean values of pain and vital signs between the groups, there was no statistically significant difference in terms of pre-test mean scores (P > .05). After Tukey advanced analysis, we found that VR and SB significantly decreased pain, diastolic blood pressure, pulse, and respiratory rate and significantly increased oxygen saturation (P < .05). Conclusions: We found that VR glasses and squeezing SBs during the transrectal prostate biopsy procedure reduced pain and positively affected vital signs.

Method: This was a quasi-experimental study and a pretest-posttest design with a control group. The population of the study consisted of elderly male patients who were hospitalized at the urology clinic of a hospital in Turkey, eligible for inclusion, and who were scheduled to undergo BPH surgery. These patients had a prostate mass >30g on which medical treatment and minimal surgical treatment had not been succesful but which could be cured through open prostatectomy surgery and transurethral resection of the prostate. The sample consisted of 110 patients selected by the convenience sampling method and determined based on power analysis. Results: According to data analysis, both groups showed significantly reduced anxiety after the smelling lavender oil. However, the experimental group reported a significantly higher decrease in anxiety [mean change: -38.47 (SD 8.68) vs -2.78 (SD 3.27)] in comparison to the control group (p < 0.001). The posttest mean vital signs of the groups were compared and there was a statistically significant decrease in respiration and increase in oxygen saturation (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The findings showed that lavender oil inhalation reduced anxiety levels and had effects on the vital signs of BPH patients in their preoperative period. (C) 2019 Elsevier Inc.

Watching comedy videos can distract these patients, relieving psychological issues without causing any further harm. Methods: This randomized clinical trial was conducted on patients who were candidates for oncologic surgery at a university hospital in Turkey. The sample of the study consisted of 88 patients. Before surgery, patients in the experimental group (n = 44) watched comedy videos while those in the control group (n = 44) received no intervention. The Patient Introduction and Registration Form and the State and Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) were used as data collection tools. Anxiety, measured by the STAI, and vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, respiration, and oxygen saturation) were measured before and after the experimental protocol. Descriptive statistics, chi-square and t-test were used in the analysis of the data. Results: The pretest of STAI scores and vital signs were similar in both groups (p > 0.05). After video watching, the mean state anxiety score of the patients was 43.36 +/- 9.76 in the experimental group and 47.13 +/- 5.76 in the control group. The difference between the mean anxiety scores of the two groups was statistically significant (p < 0.05). However, there were no significant differences in vital signs across groups (p> 0.05). Within group pre- versus post-treatment comparisons showed significant reduction in anxiety, diastolic and systolic blood pressures in the video group (p <0.05), while in controls, there was no significant improvement in anxiety and physiologic values. Conclusions: The results suggest that watching comedy videos has a beneficial effect on pre-operative anxiety and blood pressure in surgical oncology patients. (C) 2020 Elsevier Inc.

Materials and Methods: The study had a relational descriptive design. It was conducted in the surgery clinics of a university hospital in the southeast of Turkey from November 2019 to February 2020. The study sample consisted of 200 patients in preoperative period. Results: The average score of patients in preoperative period from the attitudes toward uncertainty scale was 49.04±14.81. The average age of patients included in the study sample was 49.17±16.96. 59.5% of patients were female, 43.5% of them had an education below graduate level and 84.5% of them had someone to help with home care. A statistically significant difference was detected between the average uncertainty score and age, having someone to help with home care, total number of hospitalizations, American society of anesthesiologists preoperative risk status prior to surgical intervention and presence of any chronic diseases (p.05).Conclusion: Study findings indicate that patients in preoperative period had moderate levels of uncertainty. It was found that the patient’s age, having someone to help with home care, total number of hospitalizations, American society of anesthesiologists preoperative risk status and chronic disease variables affected the uncertainty levels. In the light of these results, it is thought that patients should be approached individually by taking these variables into consideration and the quality of patient support and their coping levels should be assessed.
