Giriş: Kritik bakım ünitelerine hem kabul hem de taburculuk, hastalarda ve ailede kaygıya neden olabilir. Birinci ve ikinci basamak sağlık hizmetinin koordinasyon ve integrasyonu bu bireyler için önemlidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, yoğun bakım ünitesinden (YBÜ) transfer edilmeye bağlı olarak, hastalar ve onlara bakım veren yakınlarında ortaya çıkan transfer anksiyetesini araştırmaktır.

Yöntem: Bu araştırma, YBÜ’ye yatırılan ve daha sonra genel durumlarının iyileşmesi nedeniyle transfer edilen hastalar ve bakım verenleriyle görüşülerek gerçekleştirilen betimleyici bir çalışmadır. Araştırmanın verileri Anket Formu ve Durumluk-Sürekli Kaygı Envanteri (STAI) kullanılarak sağlanmıştır.

Bulgular: Çalışmaya toplam 170 kişi (85 hasta ve 85 aile üyesi) dahil edildi. Hasta kaygı ölçeği skorları bakım veren aile üyelerinkinden daha yüksek bulundu ve fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlıydı (p<0.001). Hasta ve bakım veren yakınlarının kaygı ölçeği ortalama skorları transfer öncesine göre transfer sonrası daha yüksekti ve fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulundu (p<0.001).

Sonuç: Hasta ve hasta yakınları YBÜ’ den nakledilmeye bağlı transfer anksiyetesi deneyimlemektedir. Sağlık çalışanları, bu bireylerde transfer anksiyetesini önlemek için gerekli düzenlemeleri yapmaya teşvik edilmelidir. Sürece, bu bireyleri yakından tanıyan birinci basamak profesyonellerinin, özellikle de aile hekimleri ve hemşirelerin de müdahil olması önem arz etmektedir.

Introduction: Both admission and discharge in the critical care units can cause anxiety in the patients and their family caregivers. Coordination and integration of primary and secondary healthcare is important for those individuals. The aim of the study was to investigate the transfer anxiety in patients and their caregivers due to being transferred from the intensive care unit (ICU).

Methods: This is a descriptive study that was carried out through interviewing with the patients and their caregivers who were hospitalized in the ICU and then transferred out due to the improvement of their general condition. The data of the study were carried out by using a Questionnaire Form and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI).

Results: A total of 170 individuals (85 patients and 85 family caregivers) were involved in the study. The patient’s anxiety scores were higher than their caregivers and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). The patients and their caregivers’ mean anxiety scale scores after the transfer were higher in comparison with the mean scores before the transfer and the difference was statistically significant (p<0.001).

Conclusions: Patients and their caregivers experience transfer anxiety due to being transferred from the ICU. Therefore, healthcare professionals are encouraged to make the necessary adjustments to prevent transfer anxiety. In this process, the involvement of primary healthcare professionals, in particular family physicians and nurses, who know them closely is crucial.
