Öğe Audiological and transient evoked otoacoustic emission findings in patients with vitiligo(Sage Publications Ltd, 2010) Aslan, Sundus; Serarslan, Gamze; Teksoz, Emel; Dagli, SafakOBJECTIVE: To investigate hearing loss in patients with vitiligo. STUDY DESIGN: Case-control study. SETTING: University hospital. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Conventional pure-tone and high-frequency audiometric tests were obtained, and pure-tone average hearing thresholds were calculated for 22 consecutive cases with vitiligo and 22 sex- and age-matched controls. Transient evoked otoacoustic emission testing was also performed. RESULTS: There was sensorineural hearing loss on pure-tone audiogram in 16 (36.4%) ears in patients with vitiligo. The hearing thresholds (in dB) were 16.02 +/- 6.61 versus 12.39 +/- 6.05, 15.68 +/- 6.34 versus 13.18 +/- 3.75, 15.80 +/- 13.93 versus 7.39 +/- 6.95, 25.11 +/- 17.40 versus 15.91 +/- 12.91, 29.89 +/- 18.57 versus 17.84 +/- 12.36, and 45.91 +/- 23.31 versus 33.86 +/- 15.99 in the patient and control groups at 0.25, 1, 4, 8, 10, and 12.5 kHz, respectively, and were statistically significantly different. Reduction of transient evoked otoacoustic emission amplitude was statistically significant at 4 kHz in patients with vitiligo (6.34 +/- 3.98 dB vs 8.63 +/- 5.15 dB, P = 0.023). There was no significant difference in reproducibility, stimulus intensity, stability, and average transient evoked otoacoustic emission amplitudes in patients with vitiligo. CONCLUSION: Hearing thresholds at pure-tone and high-frequency audiometry were higher in patients with vitiligo. Also, significantly lower high-frequency amplitudes were recorded during transient evoked otoacoustic emission testing in the disease group.

Creative play may reduce the adverse effects of hospitalisation on children, as it could lead to children associating satisfaction and fun with their hospital experience. The aim of the current study is to investigate the impact of a creative play intervention on service-care satisfactionmeasurements of children and their parents. Design and Methods: A mixed-methods design consisting of quantitative pre/ post-assessments and qualitative interviews was used within this study. The research was conducted with 30 children (n(experimental group) = 15; n(control group) = 15). Their parents (n = 30) and their nurse practitioners (n = 20) were also contacted in order to capture their reflections of this intervention which included creative activities with unused clean medical materials. Child participants completed the Patient's Nursing Care Perception Tool and their parents completed the PedsQL Health Care Satisfaction Tool. Results: The two groups did not differ in relation to the Patients' Nursing Care Satisfaction Tool (PNCST) (t(28): 0.348, p =.730) and the PedsQL (t(28): -0.189, p =.852) scores at Time 1 before the intervention; however, significant differences were observed at the end at Time 2 (PNCST: t(28): -11.63, p <.001; PedsQL: t(28): -12.416, p <.001). In qualitative interviews, nurses indicated that their play skills with children had been enhanced by this intervention. Family attendants reported that the intervention improved the nurse-child relationship and their satisfaction with care. Practice Implications: The results have shown that creative play intervention are a feasible nursing intervention which has a strong potential to be effective on child patients' and their attendants' satisfaction with care services.Öğe The Impact of a Nursing Coping Kit and a Nursing Coping Bouncy Castle on the Medical Fear Levels of Uzbek Refugee Children(Elsevier Science Inc, 2018) Teksoz, Emel; Duzguner, Vesile; Bilgin, Ibrahim; Ocakci, Ayse FerdaPurpose: This study determines the effect of a nursing coping kit and a nursing coping bouncy castle on the self-reported medical fear levels of Uzbek refugee children. Design and Methods: The study was conducted with Uzbek refugee children (n = 70) aged 6 to 18 years from Hatay province of Turkey. The children were randomly assigned into 2 groups; an experimental group (n = 35) and a control group (n = 35). Two coping interventionswere tested; a nursing coping kit and a nursing coping bouncy castle. These were designed to present medical implements, depictions of healthcare staff, and medical procedures to the children in a fun and playful way. A socio-demographic questionnaire was completed by all participants prior to the experiment. Also, a Fear for Medical Procedures Scale (FMPS) questionnaire was completed by each participant both prior to and after the intervention sessions with both the coping interventions. Results: The FMPS post-test scores decreased significantly in the experimental group after exposure to the two interventions when compared with the control group (11.77 and 22.14, respectively). Thus, the results support the notion that two coping interventions appear to reduce children'smedical fear level and make healthcare procedures easier to deal with. Conclusion: The participation of children in creative activities such as making toys or playingwith items fromthe nursing coping kit, and the opportunity for having fun represented by the nursing coping bouncy castle have potential benefits for them in terms of developing strategies to cope with their medical fears. Practical Implications: Using interventions to cope with medical fears of children might be recommended when the normal development process is considered significantly. Nursing researches should attach more importance and perform further studies about the subject. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
