This project is designed as a quasi-experimental study to evaluate the effect of the Peer Leadership Program, established in the Nursing Department, on nursing peer mentor students' empathic self-efficacy, social self-efficacy, and youth leadership characteristics.

This study aims to evaluate the effects of animated films and story books on the fear and anxiety levels of children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes.

Artificial intelligence (AI), now an integral part of healthcare services and presents numerous opportunities. Customized treatment plans, clinical decision support systems, predictive analysis for disease prevention, patient engagement and education, quality improvement, and error reduction are some of these opportunities. In the context of delirium prevention, risk assessment, and treatment planning, the AI-supported system AI-AntiDelirium is designed to standardize the approach to delirium management in alignment with the PADIS guidelines. A randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of this system found that the workload of nurses decreased, facilitated early diagnosis and prevention of delirium, and recommended evidence-based and individualized delirium interventions. A systematic review concluded that AI applications did not significantly impact the length of hospital stay and emphasized the need for further research. Also, AI platforms contributed to positive results in reducing anxiety and depression in patients. Furthermore, systematic reviews have demonstrated that AI-based chatbots are effective in alleviating symptoms of depression and anxiety. However, the literature includes a limited number of patient education programs specifically designed to prevent or manage delirium through AI-based approaches. Notably, there is a lack of studies comparing the effectiveness of AI-supported educational interventions with those delivered directly by nurses. The goal of this clinical trial is to develop a structured AINurse and Human Nurse orientation training program for intensive care unit (ICU) patients and compare the effects of these training programs on ICU patients' delirium-free days, level of anxiety and depression, and length of stay in the ICU. Hypotheses of the study: H1: Patients who receive the structured AINurse patient orientation training program will have longer delirium-free days than patients who receive Human Nurse orientation training. H2: Patients who receive the structured AINurse patient orientation training program will have lower levels of anxiety and depression than patients who receive the Human Nurse orientation training. H3: Patients who receive the structured AINurse patient orientation training program will have shorter lengths of stay in the intensive care unit than patients who receive the Human Nurse orientation training. Researchers will compare the AINurse patient orientation training program and the orientation training program provided by human nurses in terms of patients' delirium-free days, level of anxiety and depression, and length of stay in the ICU. * Those in the intervention group will receive the AINurse orientation training program twice daily for 3 days. * Participants in the control group will receive face-to-face structured orientation training from researchers twice daily for 3 days. * Delirium-free day assessment, anxiety and depression will be evaluated for patients in both groups over 3 days. * The length of stay in the intensive care unit will be monitored for patients in both groups.

The goal of this clinical trial is to find out if educational videos-especially interactive ones-can help people on dialysis better manage their treatment. Researchers want to answer the following main questions: Can interactive or conventional video-based education help patients better understand and follow their treatment plan? Does this type of education improve patients' ability to control their weight changes between dialysis sessions? Does this type of education improve patients' activation? Is interactive video education more effective than regular (non-interactive) video education? What Will Happen in the Study: Adults on hemodialysis will take part in the study. They will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group A: Will receive 10 interactive educational video sessions (30 minutes each). Group B: Will receive the same videos but in a non-interactive format. Group C (Control Group): Will receive routine education normally given at the dialysis center. Videos will be watched on a web platform. Interactive videos include pop-up questions and scenario-based feedback. All participants will be followed up immediately, 1 month, and 3 months after the program ends. What Participants Will Do: Watch educational videos over several days (totaling 5 hours). Answer questions and engage in follow-up group discussions. Complete surveys about their knowledge, treatment adherence, and health behaviors. Get weighed before and after dialysis sessions to monitor fluid retention. This study aims to improve how dialysis patients manage their condition and to help healthcare providers design better educational tools.

Background: Physically inactive and poor sleep quality are at increased risk for non-communicable diseases. Nurses were the most vulnerable inactive healthcare personnel who may not meet global physical activity recommendations because of complicated rotation shifts and heavy working loading. Wearable devices initiate behavior intervention combined with smartphone applications could offer new opportunities for social connection by a convenient way for nurses to improve physical activity and sleep quality. Objectives: To evaluate the effects of wearable devices initiate behavioral intervention on body composition, physical activity, sleep quality and stress of nurses in hospital working place. Method: This is a randomized controlled trial that will recruit 120 nurses and randomly assign them into two groups from a hospital working place. The nurses in the intervention group will receive 12-week wearable devices to initiate behavioral intervention. The nurses in the comparison group will only receive 12-week wearable devices monitoring. Data will be collected at baseline and 12-week and 24-week follow-up. The body composition will be measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). The physical activity and sleep quality will be monitored by the Fitbit wearable device and application. The mediator parameter of the stress will be measured by salivary amylase activity (SAA). We will control the internal validity to assure the quality of training, treatment fidelity, identify barriers and facilitators of implementation, and assess participants' satisfaction. General estimating equations (GEE) will be applied to examine the effects of time and group interaction.

The present study aims to analyze different care routes of the peripheral access central venous catheter to assess which alternative allows a moderate reduction in the level of complications associated with prolonged care frequency, due to the reduction of device manipulation. A high level of patient satisfaction is detected due to the controlled follow-up of the device care, as well as a decrease in the need for transfer to a center for follow-up. Objective: Identify the type of care frequency for PIVCs most beneficial for the reduction of complications associated with extraluminal device care (thrombosis, phlebitis, accidental removal, obstruction).

Background: Different co-creation methods were used to design and prototype a new fixative device for multiple intravenous therapies with the ability to control and identify the pharmacological therapy administered to a patient. Objectives: To validate a newly created device for the reduction of complications related to the use of intravenous therapy Methods: A multidisciplinary team composed of eight professionals specializing in the field of critical care and an engineering professional in industrial design was responsible for collecting, evaluating, and materializing the ideas and needs arising from clinical practice in a device that met the standards of the same.
