HEMŞİRELERİN KANSERLİ HASTALARIN YORGUNLUK DURUMUNA FARKINDALIĞI

Amaç: Çalışma hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluk durumuna farkındalığını incelemek amacıylatanımlayıcı olarak yapılmıştır.Yöntem: Araştırmanın örneklemini Nisan 2011- Haziran 2011 tarihleri arasında Ege ÜniversitesiUygulama ve Araştırma Hastanesi ile Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Uygulama ve Araştırma Hastanesinde kanserlihastalara bakım veren 70 hemşire oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin toplanmasında hemşirelerin sosyodemografik veçalışma durumu ile hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluğuna farkındalığını belirlemek için araştırmacıtarafından hazırlanan Hemşirelerin Yorgunluğu Tanımlama Formu kullanılmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında birebir görüşme yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, ortalama±standartsapma, değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiyi saptamak içinde spearman korelasyon analizinden yararlanılmıştır.Bulgular: Araştırmada, hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluğunu %82.9 oranında hastaların bedendilinden ve %81.4 oranında kendi ifadelerinden tanıladıkları, yorgunluğu en şiddetli semptom olarak anksiyetedensonra ikinci sırada değerlendirdikleri, yorgunluğu %87.1 oranında problem olarak gördükleri fakat %81.4’ününbuna rağmen herhangi bir ölçek kullanmadıkları ve %40’ının yorgunluğa yönelik girişimde bulunduğusaptanmıştır. Hemşirelerin sosyodemografik ve çalışma durumu ile yorgunluğa farkındalık durumu arasında ilişkibulunmadığı saptanmıştır.Sonuç: Hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluk durumuna farkındalığı saptanmış ama bu semptomunyönetimine ilişkin girişimlerin az yapıldığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

In order to determine the sociodemographic and working status of the nurses and the awareness of nurses about the fatigue of cancer patients, the Nurses' Fatigue Identification Form was used. An individual interview method was used to collect the data. In the evaluation of the data, descriptive statistics, mean ± Standard deviation, spearman correlationan alysis was used in determining the relationship between variables. Results: The followings were obtained as theresults of thestudy: The nurses identified the fatique as %82.9 by observing thepatients’ body-language and %81.4 from personal complaints .The patients evaluated fatique as the second severe stsymp to after anxiety and the fatique was perceived as a problem by %87.1 of the patients; however, %81.4 of the nurses used no scales and %40 of the nurses tried to perform a medical attention against fatique.
