Hemşirelerin Kanserli Hastaların Yorgunluk Durumuna Yönelik Farkındalığı

Öz ÖZET Amaç: Çalışma hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluk durumuna farkındalığını incelemek amacıyla tanımlayıcı olarak yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Araştırmanın örneklemini Nisan 2011- Haziran 2011 tarihleri arasında Ege Üniversitesi Uygulama ve Araştırma Hastanesi ile Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Uygulama ve Araştırma Hastanesinde kanserli hastalara bakım veren 70 hemşire oluşturmaktadır. Verilerin toplanmasında hemşirelerin sosyodemografik ve çalışma durumu ile hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluğuna farkındalığını belirlemek için araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanan Hemşirelerin Yorgunluğu Tanımlama Formu kullanılmıştır. Verilerin toplanmasında bire bir görüşme yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, ortalama±standart sapma, değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiyi saptamak içinde spearman korelasyon analizinden yararlanılmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmada, hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluğunu %82.9 oranında hastaların beden dilinden ve %81.4 oranında kendi ifadelerinden tanıladıkları, yorgunluğu en şiddetli semptom olarak anksiyeteden sonra ikinci sırada değerlendirdikleri, yorgunluğu %87.1 oranında problem olarak gördükleri fakat %81.4’ünün buna rağmen herhangi bir ölçek kullanmadıkları ve %40’ının yorgunluğa yönelik girişimde bulunduğu saptanmıştır. Hemşirelerin sosyodemografik ve çalışma durumu ile yorgunluğa farkındalık durumu arasında ilişki bulunmadığı saptanmıştır. Sonuç: Hemşirelerin kanserli hastaların yorgunluk durumuna farkındalığı saptanmış ama bu semptomun yönetimine ilişkin girişimlerin az yapıldığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Farkındalık; Hemşirelik; Kanser; Yorgunluk    ABSTRACT Awareness of Nurses  on The Status of Fatique in Patients of Cancer Aim: It was examined to determine compatibility arising from cancer disease associated with the study. Methods: The sample of the study consisted of seventynurses, working at Ege and Dokuz Eylül University Hospitals as caregivers fo rcancer patients between April 2011 and June 2011. 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. As another result of the study, there were no significant relationships between the sociodemographic&workcondition of nurses and the awareness of fatique status of cancer patients. Conclusion: Nurses have been aware of the fatigue of cancer patients, but the result of few attempts to manage this symptom has been reached. Keywords: Awareness;  Nursing;  Cancer; Fatique
