Brief Summary

This research is an experimental study of randomized control with pre-test - post-test control group. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of family-centered care approach on physiological parameters and follow-up time in infants with respiratory failure diagnosed with lower respiratory tract infection and receiving high-current oxygen therapy

Conditions

Lower Respiratory Tract Infection

Keywords

Family-centered care; high-flow nasal oxygen therapy; lower respiratory tract infection; respiratory failure; nursing; infant

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Family Centred Care Scale

  The Family-Centered Care Scale (FCCS), consists of two sections. Both sections contain the same questions. The scale, divided into two sections for importance and consistency, consists of seven items. Each item is scored from 1 to 5. The lowest possible score is 7, and the highest is 35. As the total score increases, satisfaction with family-centered care increases in direct proportion to the score obtained from the scale. The items consist of questions regarding the evaluation of the nursing care received by parents during their hospital stay. The importance section evaluates the level of care shown by the nurses, and the consistency section evaluates the level of care shown by the nurses in the child's care. In the scale's evaluation, the importance and consistency scores are added together to form a single score.

Study Arms (2)

intervention group

After completing the data in the first section of the Mother and Baby Introductory Information Form, which includes information about the mother and baby, and the Family-Centered Care Scale, the mothers received one-on-one information, which lasted approximately 30 minutes, based on the content of the prepared education booklet. The education booklet covered topics on family-centered care, clinical equipment, steam application, and postural drainage. The mother was supported by a nurse throughout the care process until discharge. Maternal care practices were implemented under the supervision of the nurse, and questions about care were answered. The Family-Centered Care Scale was administered before discharge.

Other: maintenance training

control group

After completing the data in the first section of the Mother and Baby Information Form, which includes information about the mother and baby, and the Family-Centered Care Scale, the mothers were trained by the nurses in accordance with the standard training content of the service. This content included general service rules, general materials used in the service, and a service introduction. Families were also provided with basic information about high nasal flow, including what it means. Care practices were implemented by the nurse until discharge. The Family-Centered Care Scale was administered at discharge.
