    Coronaphobia, Job Satisfaction, and Languishing Levels of Intensive Care Nurses: A Cross-sectional and Correlational Study
    (Galenos Publishing House, 2023) Bulut, Azime; Bahadır Yılmaz, Emel; Yüksel, Arzu
    Objective: This study investigated the association between coronaphobia, job satisfaction, and languishing levels in intensive care nurses. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional and correlational study was conducted with 106 intensive care nurses. The coronavirus disease-2019 phobia scale, Mental Health Continuum-Short form, and Nurse Job Satisfaction scale were used for data collection. Results: The total score of coronaphobia was 49.41 +/- 12.39, 36.57 +/- 13.60 for the mental health continuum, and 94.28 +/- 12.82 for nurse job satisfaction. There was a weak correlation between coronaphobia and emotional well-being. There was no relationship between coronaphobia and nurse job satisfaction. However, there was a moderate positive relationship between the mental health continuum and nurse job satisfaction. Conclusion: Intensive care nurses had a moderate mental health continuum in languishing. Psychosocial support and psychological counseling should be provided to intensive care nurses to eliminate feelings of emptiness, improve their concentration and motivation, and increase their working capacity.

    Evaluating the risk of delirium in elderly inpatients in Covid-19 intensive care: a prospective and observational study
    (Turkish Geriatrics Society, 2024) Bulut, Azime; Bahadır Yılmaz, Emel; Yüksel, Arzu
    Delirium is dangerous, often preventable, and associated with a high financial burden and increased morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate the risk of delirium in elderly inpatients in COVID-19 intensive care units. Materials and Method: This study used a prospective and observational design. Between July and November 2022, 49 intensive care patients were admitted to a training and research hospital in northeast Turkey. The data were collected using the Patient Information Form, Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool, Ramsay Sedation Scale, and Nursing-Delirium Screening Scale. Results: The patients’ mean age was 76.90±8.29 years. The longer the length of stay in the intensive care unit, the incidence of delirium increased. The incidence of delirium increased in patients aged 70–95 years (p=0.007). Patients with delirium experienced insomnia and agitation and used more sedative drugs (p<0.05). The predictors of early delirium were sedation (?=0.869), agitation (?=-0.582), and diastolic blood pressure (?=0.258). The predictors of delirium were pain (?=-0.599) and sedation (?=0.267). Conclusion: The study demonstrated that older age, agitation, sedation, pain, and diastolic blood pressure predicted delirium in elderly COVID-19 inpatients. It is necessary to identify and eliminate risk factors to reduce the risk of delirium in elderly patients. Nurses should play an active role in identifying and managing delirium in elderly COVID-19 patients.
