About

There are two main treatments for end-stage renal disease (ESRD): dialysis and transplantation.Renal transplantation is the best and most preferred treatment for ESRD patients.Self management after renal transplantation is difficult. Individuals need appropriate care,education, counseling and support in order to change their behavior to cope with health problems during the transplantation process.The aim of nursing care and education is to enable the individual to acquire the knowledge, skills and attitude to independently carry out daily life activities and to adopt this as a lifestyle.Nursing care and education requires an interdisciplinary teamwork, and in this process, the nurse plays a key role as she constantly interacts with the donor, recipient and family.The research was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study with pretest-posttest design.A total of 60 nurses, 30 in the control group and 30 in the intervention group,who met the criteria for inclusion in the study, will form the sample of the study.After obtaining consent from the nurses in the intervention and control groups, they will be asked to fill out the Nurse InformationForm, the Patient-Centered Care Competency Scale and the Nurses Counseling Skills Scale.

Full description

There are two main treatments for end-stage renal disease (ESRD): dialysis and transplantation. Renal transplantation (RTx) is the best and most preferred treatment for ESRD patients. A successful RTx, made from a living or cadaver donor, improves the quality of life compared to dialysis and fully fulfills the function of the kidney.Self-management after renal transplantation is difficult. Individuals need appropriate care, education, counseling and support in order to change their behavior to cope with health problems during the transplantation process. The aim of nursing care and education is to enable the individual to acquire the knowledge, skills and attitude to independently carry out daily life activities and to adopt this as a lifestyle. Nursing care and education requires an interdisciplinary teamwork, and in this process, the nurse plays a key role as she constantly interacts with the donor, recipient and family.Today, technology-based methods are used to increase compliance with transplantation and are increasingly seen as valuable tools. The aim of this research is to develop and implement a web-based nurse training program for renal transplantation nurses and to examine the effect of this training on nurses' patient-centered care competence and counseling skills. The research was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study with pretest-posttest design.

The population of the research will be 1870 nurses registered to the Turkish Nephrology, Dialysis and Transplantation Nurses Association. A total of 60 nurses, 30 in the control group and 30 in the intervention group, who met the criteria for inclusion in the study, will form the sample of the study.The research will be carried out on the website www.bobreknakliokulu.com, which will be developed after a preliminary interview with the nurses working in the renal transplantation clinics between April and August 2023, and they will be included in the web-based training as self-managed and asynchronous for 8 weeks.After obtaining consent from the nurses in the intervention and control groups, they will be asked to fill out the Nurse Information Form, the Patient-Centered Care Competency Scale and the Nurses Counseling Skills Scale. After completing the web-based training, intervention group nurses will be asked to fill in the Patient-Centered Care Competency Scale and the Counseling Skills in Nurses Scale at the 1st and 3rd months. No training will be given to the nurses in the control group and they will be asked to fill the Patient-Centered Care Competency Scale and the Counseling Skills for Nurses Scale again.It is expected that the renal transplantation nurses who receive this training will contribute positively to the increase of evidence-based knowledge and the development of clinical practices, the competence of patient-centered care and the management of counseling skills in line with clinical guidelines.
