Abstract

Amaç: Bu araştırma, pediatri hemşirelerinin COVID-19 korkusu ve yaşadıkları zorlukların belirlenmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır.
Yöntem: Bu araştırma, kesitsel ve tanımlayıcı tipte bir çalışma olarak planlanmıştır. Araştırma verileri “Pediatri Hemşirelerinin COVID-19 Pandemi Sürecinde Yaşadıkları Zorlukları Değerlendirme Formu” ve “COVID-19 Korku Ölçeği” kullanılarak toplanmıştır.
Bulgular: Araştırma, Türkiyede bir il merkezinde çalışan 154 pediatri hemşiresi ile yapılmıştır. Araştırmaya dahil olan hemşirelerin %83.7’sinin kişisel koruyucu ekipmana(KKE) sahip olma konusunda sıkıntı yaşadıkları ve KKE içinde aralıksız 5.61±5.99 saat çalıştıkları saptanmıştır. Hemşirelerin Koronavirüs (COVID-19) korkusu ölçeğinin toplam puan ortalaması 22.88±5.10’dır.
Sonuç: Hemşirelerin Koronavirüs korkusunun yüksek olduğu ve bu durumun hemşirelerde; huzursuzluk, stress, kaygı gibi psikolijk problemler ile besin ve sıvı alımında azalma, dermatolojik problemler vb. fizyolojik problemlere yol açtığı belirlenmiştir.
