Brief Summary

Various tools for measuring nursing workload have been described in the national and international literature. For this purpose, Cullen et al. The Therapeutic Intervention Scoring System (TISS)-28, created by Miranda et al. Nursing Activities Score (NAS) was created by revising by. NAS covers 80.8% of all nursing activities, surpassing the 43.3% coverage of TISS-28. Critical Nursing Situation Index (CNSI) has been validated and adapted in our country and has been found to be a valid and reliable scale for the Turkish society. The aim of this study is to adapt the Nursing Activities Score (NAS) to Turkish and determine its correlation with CNSI scores.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Evaluation of NAS Turkish validity and applicability

  NAS was developed to measure the workload of nurses in patient care. Scores refer to the average time spent caring for patients, not the severity of the disease. Total NAS can range from 0 to 177 points. A score above 100 points indicates that more than one nurse is needed to provide care.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Investigating the correlation between NAS and CNSI
