THE EFFECT OF SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT EDUCATION GIVEN WITH MICRO TEACHING METHOD ENRICHED WITH STANDARD PATIENT IN PALLIATIVE CARE ON NURSING STUDENTS' KNOWLEDGE LEVEL, REFLECTIVE THINKING LEVEL AND THERAPEUTIC COMMUNICATION SKILLS
The study was planned as a randomized controlled pre-test, post-test intervention study to determine the effect of symptom management training in palliative care given with micro-teaching method enriched with standard patient on nursing students' knowledge levels, reflective thinking levels and therapeutic communication skills related to palliative care.
Sample of study was calculated as 36 using G*Power Software (ver. 3.1.9.2) for 80% power and medium effect size (f=0.40) at 95% confidence level in line with the data of Lin et al. The experimental and control groups were planned as 20 students each with a 10 percent loss. Participants were assigned to the experimental and control groups by the stratified randomization method. The locks were assigned to layers using Microsoft Excel. A pre-test will be applied to both groups. The control group will receive palliative care brochure for patients and their relatives.The practice group will be shared the 4 most common symptoms in palliative care nursing: pain, fatigue, respiratory distress and loss of appetite. The practice group will be 5 groups and there will be 4 students in each group. During the practice, each student will provide patient education about only one symptom. The standard patient will participate in the intervention in the application laboratory and the students will participate in the intervention in the computer environment. Video recordings will be taken while the students are giving education. After watching the experts, peers and their own video with the micro-teaching group evaluation form, the student himself/herself will make an evaluation. At the same time, a lecturer from outside the research will fill in the Standard Patient Check-List Evaluation Form. The application will be repeated one week later. After all the applications, the students will watch the video of their own 2 more times and the post-test will be applied to both groups. After one month, a retention test will be applied to the students in both groups.
