Item Artificial intelligence and robot nurses: From nurse managers' perspective: A descriptive cross-sectional studyErgin, E; Karaarslan, D; Sahan, S; Yücel, SÇAim This research was planned to identify nurse managers' opinions on artificial intelligence and robot nurses. Background As the concepts of artificial intelligence and robot nurses are becoming widespread in Turkey, nurse managers are expected to guide and cooperate with nurses in the future in regard to these technologies. Methods The sample of the study consisted of 326 manager nurses, who were reached via the online questionnaire during the period of September to November 2021. A Nurse Managers Information Form and a Question Form on Artificial Intelligence and Robot Nurses were used to collect data. Data in this cross-sectional descriptive study were collected between September 2021 and November 2021 by the online survey method. The descriptive statistics of the data were analysed with numbers and percentages. The difference between the knowledge of artificial intelligence and robot nurses and demographic characteristics was analysed with the chi-square test. Results According to the findings, 66.9% of the nurse managers reported having heard the concepts of artificial intelligence and robot nurses previously. 67.2% stated that they thought that robot nurses would benefit the nursing profession, but 86.2% voiced disbelief that robots would replace nurses. Conclusions The majority of the participating nurse managers reported that artificial intelligence and robot nurses would not replace nurses but would be beneficial for nurses and would reduce their workload. Implications for Nursing Management It should be ensured that the nurse managers plan the areas in the hospital where artificial intelligence and robot nurses will be used and determine the possible risks. Awareness should be increased with in-service trainings, and patient safety and ethical problems regarding the use of artificial intelligence and robot nurses should be identified.Item How Does the Anxiety of Primiparae Affect Their Readiness for Newborn Care? Ethnic Primiparous ExperiencesKaraarslan, D; Akin, HYSBackgroundThe study was conducted to investigate the relationship between pregnancy-related anxiety levels of primiparae living in an ethnic region and their readiness for postnatal hygienic care of newborns.MethodThe study conducted between February and May 2023 included 201 18-40-year-old primiparae who lived in an ethnic region and volunteered to participate in the study. The population of the study consisted of all pregnant women who presented to the Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic, Pregnancy Outpatient Clinic of a city hospital. The Pregnant Women Personality and Obstetric Characteristics Form, Pregnant Women's Readiness for Newborn Hygienic Care Scale, and Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Inventory were used as data collection tools.ResultsThe mean age of the 201 primiparae participating in the study was 26.11 +/- 3.05 years. Although 71.1% of them felt confident about baby care before the baby was born, 95.5% needed help with baby care after birth. Their readiness for stress and newborn hygienic care was at a medium level. There was a statistically significant negative relationship between the scores they obtained from the Pregnant Women's Readiness for Newborn Hygienic Care Scale and Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (p = 0.011; r = - 0.180).ConclusionsThe participating primiparae experienced moderate levels of anxiety, and the increase in their anxiety levels negatively affected their readiness for the hygienic care of their newborn babies. Thus, when primiparae are provided with healthy newborn care, their anxiety levels should.Item Validity and Reliability of the Turkish Version of the DSM-5 Posttraumatic Stress Symptom Severity Scale-Child FormSapmaz, SY; Ergin, D; Özek Erkuran, H; Sen Celasin, N; Öztürk, M; Karaarslan, D; Köroglu, E; Aydemir, ÖIntroduction: This study assessed the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the DSM-5 Posttraumatic Stress Symptom Severity Scale-Child Form for use among the Turkish population.

Confirmatory factor analysis was carried out for the construct validity of the WFIRS-S-TR. The RMSEA and the CFI values were found to be 0.065 and 0.68, respectively. Conclusion: The WFIRS-S-TR can be used as a valid and reliable tool both in clinical practice and for research purposes.Item Can artificial intelligence and robotic nurses replace operating room nurses? The quasi-experimental researchErgin, E; Karaarslan, D; Sahan, S; Bingöl, UOperating room nurses, who have an important place in the professional healthcare team, should be able to use technology effectively and adapt to innovations. This study is expected to shed light on how effective the development of robotic technologies and artificial intelligence and their integration into operating room nursing will be in fulfilling the requirements of contemporary nursing philosophy. This study was designed as a single group pre- and post-test quasi-experimental study. The quasi-experimental (pretest-posttest) research design was utilized to conduct the study in a Training and Research Hospital in Western Turkey. The nurses (n = 35) working in the operating room of the aforementioned hospital were included in the study. In this study, we aimed to determine whether operating room nurses experienced anxiety due to the use of artificial intelligence and robotic nurses, and the effectiveness of the training given to them in order to raise their awareness. The following three tools were used for data collection: The Nurses' Descriptive Characteristics Form, Artificial Intelligence Knowledge Questionnaire, and Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale. Data extraction and analysis were performed in a narrative and tabular way. According to this study, the training given to the operating room nurses significantly increased their knowledge levels about artificial intelligence and robotic nurses, and increased their artificial intelligence- and robotic nurse-related anxiety significantly (p < 0.05). The participating operating room nurses experienced limitations regarding current information, training programs and learning opportunities on robotic surgery. We recommend that the operating room nurses should be provided with trainings on artificial intelligence technologies and robotic nurses, and that they should be enabled to use these information technologies regarding future technologies actively.Item How does training given to pediatric nurses about artificial intelligence and robot nurses affect their opinions and attitude levels?

Conclusion: As a result of the study, it was found that pediatric nurses had an intermediate level of knowledge and behavior regarding pain management and had sufficient knowledge about pain diagnosis and management.Item The effect of the operating room tour watched with a 3D virtual reality headset on children's fear and anxiety before the surgery - a randomized controlled studyKaraarslan, D; Ergin, DA Virtual reality (VR) tour of the operating theatre can provide a realistic experience for children. The sample of children was allocated to VR-Documentary Film Group (n = 35), VR-Operating Theater Tour Group (n = 35) and Control Group (n = 35) using randomization and experimental study. The preoperative fear of the children was assessed (Child Fear Scale-CFS and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children-STAIC for children) by children themselves and their parents, and their preoperative anxiety was assessed (Children's Anxiety Meter-CAM-S) by themselves. Children's fear and anxiety scores decreased in the VR-Operating Theater Tour and VR-Documentary Film groups. In these two groups, there was a significant difference between the CAM-S scores reflecting the children's evaluations and the CFS scores reflecting the children's and their parents' evaluations, and their post-test scores were lower than their pre-test scores. Children's watching actual operating theatre tour virtually was determined as an effective method in reducing children's preoperative fear and anxiety levels.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05401539.Item Validity and Reliability of the Turkish Version of DSM-5 Level 2 Anxiety Scale (Child Form for 11-17 Years and Parent Form for 6-17 Years)Yalin Sapmaz, S; Özek Erkuran, H; Karaarslan, D; Öztürk, M; Yörük Ülker, G; Serim Demirgören, B; Köroglu, E; Aydemir, OIntroduction: This study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish Version of DSM-5 Level 2 Anxiety Scale's child and parent forms.
