University of Beykent60 enrolled

Overview

The aim of this study; To measure the effectiveness of isolation training given to caregivers using different training methods. As a result of this measurement, the more effective method will be used routinely. In this way, it is aimed to create more conscious patients and caregivers. In this study, two different training methods will be used and the methods will be compared. Methods; It is divided into two as the experimental group, the training to be given with virtual glasses, and the training given with the control group, as the standard training booklet. With virtual glasses, patients will be trained in an interactive way with three-dimensional video, and they will be able to see and then apply them. The training to be given with the training booklet includes standard procedure and 2D visual and verbal expression. Based on this information, this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Isolation Training Given to the Caregivers of Isolated Sick Individuals with Different Methods.

This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to evaluate the effectiveness of Isolation Training Given to Caregivers of Isolated Sick Individuals with Different Methods. The universe of the research will be the caregivers of the patients isolated in the intensive care and services of the Beykent University hospital, and the sample will be the caregivers of the patients whose hemodynamics are stable and willing to work. Sampling criteria; the patient's hemodynamics is stable, and the patients and their caregivers are willing to work. Power analysis was performed for the sample size of the study and it was decided to have a total of 60 patients, 30 in each group (control group, virtual reality group). Research data; structured information form, knowledge test for Isolation Measures, skills checklist for Isolation Measures and training satisfaction survey. Study data will be analyzed with SPSS 25 statistical program. In the research; Two different training methods will be used and these are; Virtual Glasses application, which is the experimental group; For the care and follow-up of the isolated patient, a video will be taken and watched in order to show the caregivers that the personal protective equipment is worn correctly and in order, and this is explained. This video will be rendered 3D and shown to caregivers. Afterwards, the caregiver will be expected to apply the training received. The Control Group, on the other hand, will be trained with a training booklet to be applied as a standard procedure, which provides information on isolation methods.Before these trainings, knowledge test (pretest) and after training knowledge tests (posttest) will be done. During the training, the equipment will be worn by the caregivers, and the actions that are done / not done will be evaluated by marking from the checklist prepared during this process. Finally, the satisfaction with education questionnaire will be filled.With this study, it will be ensured that the Efficiency of the Isolation Training Given to the Caregivers of Isolated Sick Individuals with Different Methods.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Achievement levels

The caregivers of the isolated individuals were informed about the isolation precautions checklist.It was created in line with the literature to determine the knowledge levels regarding the ability to apply Isolation Precautions.It is a checklist consisting of 20 items that evaluates isolation precautions and wearing protective equipment, created by researchers in line with the literature. The lowest score that can be obtained from the checklist is "0", and the highest score is "100".

Time frame: 2 Months

Knowledge levels

The caregivers of the isolated individuals were informed about the knowledge exam.It is a survey consisting of 20 questions covering isolation precautions created by researchers in line with the literature.The lowest score that can be obtained from the knowledge exam is "0", and the highest score is "100".

Time frame: 2 Month

Secondary Outcomes

Satisfaction levels

The caregivers of the isolated individuals were informed about the satisfaction with education questionnaire.The survey consists of 16 propositions. Each proposition is scored according to a 5-point Likert scale (1-strongly disagree, 2-disagree, 3-undecided, 4-agree, 5-strongly agree). It is determined that as the average scale score increases, individuals' satisfaction with the education method increases, and as the average scale score decreases, their satisfaction with the education method decreases. In the scale evaluation, individuals are given a minimum of 16 and a maximum of 80 points for their satisfaction with the education methods.
