Brief Summary
Parents whose children are in intensive care have to cope with many stressors in terms of psychological, physical, economic and social aspects. Especially during the discharge process, many reasons such as the fact that their children have a chronic disease, need for care, parents do not know how to provide the care their children need, the lack of professional health care teams provided by home care in our country, and therefore the care of the children is covered by the families, increase the anxiety levels of the parents. It increases the frequency of hospitalization of children or prolongs the length of stay in the intensive care unit, as appropriate care cannot be provided. In addition, frequent hospitalizations can cause damage to family dynamics. It has been determined that as the child grows, the difficulties experienced in the care of the child, the financial difficulties increase, the worries about the future and the constant relationship with the experts increase the stress of the parents and the stress is in parallel with the level of hopelessness. This is the factor that reinforces the anxiety and hopelessness in the daily life of parents. The fact that mothers whose children are in intensive care do not know the materials used, the procedures performed, the steps of the procedure, and what situations they will encounter at home may increase their stress-anxiety and hopelessness levels. Today, with the rapid development of technology, the use of educational technologies on the basis of learning and teaching has become widespread in health care education in the field of health, as in every field. It is important to address more than one sense organ in order for the education in the field of health to be more effective. Therefore, it is important to reduce the anxiety and hopelessness levels of the parents, to increase the self-confidence of the parents, to see general (physiological and psychological) improvements in children, and to reduce health costs with the training given to mothers with different education methods. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of aspiration training given by different methods on the level of anxiety and hopelessness of mothers whose children are in intensive care.

Experimental I group (video training + standard training)
EXPERIMENTALThis group will be trained with the aspiration training video shot by the researcher on the model. The video content will include the introduction of the materials used in the aspiration application, how to maintain sterility, the position to be given to the child during aspiration, and the sterile aspiration on the model. After obtaining the consent of the mothers in Experiment I group who participated in the study and were assigned by randomization method, they will be taken to the day room of the service and the training video will be watched on the computer. After the end of the video, if they have any questions, they will be answered and they will be taken to their child's intensive care room after wearing the equipment (bonnet, shoe covers, apron, mask) necessary for the standard education and providing hand hygiene.
Experimental II group (education booklet training + standard training)
EXPERIMENTALAspiration training will be given to this group with a picture training booklet. The training booklet includes the purpose of aspiration, the materials to be used, the position to be given to the child during aspiration, the preservation of sterility, and the application of aspiration. Expert opinion will be taken for the training booklet to be used. After obtaining the consent of the mothers in the Experimental II group, who participated in the study and were assigned with the randomization method, they will be taken to the day room of the service and aspiration training will be given with a picture training booklet. After the training, the questions of the mothers will be answered. At the end of the illustrated training booklet training, mothers will be put in the necessary equipment (bone cap, shoe covers, apron, mask) for standard practice training and hand hygiene will be provided and they will be taken to the intensive care environment to their children's rooms.
Control group
NO INTERVENTIONThe routine standard training given to this group in aspiration training will be used. In this training, one-to-one telling and showing are available. After obtaining the consent of the mothers in the control group who participated in the study and were assigned by randomization method, the necessary equipment (bone cap, shoe covers, apron, mask) will be put on and hand hygiene will be provided and they will be taken to the intensive care unit. After the mother is taken to the room where the child is staying, the equipment and apparatus connected to her child (monitor, infusion pump, NG probe, foley catheter, endotracheal tube, tracheostomy, etc.) will be introduced, equipment used in the treatment process of her child (mechanical ventilator, oxygen valve, aspirator, ambu, aspiration). probe, etc.) will be introduced and physical contact with the child will be supported and ensured.

In practice; The mother of the child who is planned to be discharged from the intensive care unit is given training a week before. Aspiration training will be given to the Experimental I group with the video method, and to the Experimental II group with the picture training booklet method. The materials of these trainings will be given to the mothers and they will be asked to look after them when they come to the next care.
