Özet

This study analyzed the effects of the nomophobic behaviors of emergency room nurses on their clinical decision -making perceptions. This descriptive and cross-sectional study was performed with the participation of 186 nurses working in emergency rooms of certain hospitals located in eastern Turkey. In the data collection process, a sociodemographic data form, the Nomophobia Questionnaire, and the Clinical Decision-Making in Nursing Scale were used. It was discerned that the participants had medium-level nomophobia (66.64 +/- 25.36) and clinical decision-making perceptions (149.00 +/- 26.33). A strong negative relationship was identified between nomophobia and clinical decision-making perceptions (r:-.730, p < 0.01). Moreover, it was found that the predictor variable, nomophobia explained 53% of the variance in the predicted variable, clinical decision-making perceptions (R2: 0.530, p: 0.000). In the study, it was found that emergency room nurses had medium-level nomophobia and clinical decision-making perceptions. Besides, we observed that the clinical decision-making perception levels of the participants decreased as their nomophobia levels increased. As the risk of making medical errors is likely to increase along with an increase in nomophobia levels, it is recommended that edu-cation programs be organized to get emergency room nurses' nomophobic behaviors under control.
