    Peker, HS; Dogan, P; Keles, YE
    The education activities that are performed for the purpose of expressing thoughts and impressions and raise the talent and creativity to an aesthetic level are expressed as art education. The purpose of this study is to examine the postgraduate theses conducted on art education in Turkey. The study was conducted as a qualitative study and the data were collected through the document analysis method. The research data were analyzed through content analysis. 74 postgraduate theses on art education that were searched by the term Art Education on YOK (Council of Higher Education) National Thesis Center database were accessed. 54 of the 74 postgraduate theses are master's theses and 20 of them are PhD dissertations. Among these theses, in total 48 theses were examined as 12 PhD dissertations and 36 master's theses. For the purpose of examining the theses accessed, the Thesis Examination Form was developed by the researchers towards the objective of the study. In this context, all of the open access -postgraduate theses that were conducted on the field of art education between the years of 2012-2017 were grouped from various aspects. The general assessments of the theses were made according to the institutes that they are affiliated with, years, universities, study groups, research models and data collection tools. In terms of the data analysis, frequency (f) was utilized and the findings were presented on graphs. According to the obtained data, most of the theses (11) were conducted on the years between 2014 and 2015. Between the years of 2012 and 2017, Gazi University is in the first place among the Turkish universities with the number of theses conducted in the field of art education. While qualitative methods (25) were preferred in the theses predominantly, quantitative methods followed the given situation. Almost all of the theses (%90) were conducted in an Institute of Education Sciences. Furthermore, the most frequently used data collection tool was a document/archive. Moreover, while the studies were conducted towards students they were designed as document oriented, and in the level of higher education, they were designed as prospective teacher/undergraduate student -oriented.

    Objective: Caffeine is a proven medication used for the prevention and treatment of apnea in premature infants, offering both short- and long-term benefits. International guidelines provide a range of recommendations regarding the preterm population eligible for caffeine prophylaxis, including the timing, dosage, and duration of treatment. Our national guidelines, published prior to the most recent updates of the international guidelines, recommend the use of caffeine citrate starting from the first day after delivery for preterm infants with a gestational age of <28 weeks. For infants up to 32 weeks, if positive pressure ventilation is required, the decision should be made on an individual basis. This study aims to describe the variability in caffeine usage across neonatal intensive care units in our country. Methods: An online survey was sent to neonatologist who are members of the Turkish Neonatology Society to describe the variability in caffeine usage in neonatal intensive care units in our country. Results: We collected responses from 74 units. Prophylactic caffeine usage was observed as; GA <= 27(6/7): 98.6%, GA 28(0/7)-28(6/7): 89.0%, GA 29(0/7)-29(6/7): 75.3%, GA 30(0/7)-31(6/7): 53.4%. 62.2% of units reported administering loading dose within the first two hours. The initial maintenance dose was 5 mg/kg in 64.8% of units, 10 mg/kg in 32.4% of units, and intermediate dose in 5.3% of units. 47.3% of units reported no routine dose adjustment. The postmenstrual age that caffeine treatment was stopped was found to be 34 (min-max; 32-36) weeks for infants without apnea and respiratory support, 36 (min-max; 34-52) weeks for infants without apnea but any respiratory support. The time to discharge after treatment cessation was found as; 1-4 days: 37.8%, 5-7 days: 68.9%. Among the 56 units with multiple responsible physicians, 32.1% reported intra-unit variations. Conclusion: The significant differences in caffeine usage characteristics between and within units highlight the need for clear recommendations provided by standardized guidelines.
