Abstract

AIM: Ensuring patients' safety is important to avoid falls. This research was carried out as a descriptive study that was in medical clinics, determing the risks of falling and determination of measures designed to fall in patients. METHOD: The Research included 470 patients who were voluntary to this research and treated in medical clinics between March and June 2011 in an university hospital. The data to assess the risk of falls in patients, fall risk assessment questionnaire and Hendrich II Fall Risk Diagnostic Questionnaire and patients Information Form for collecting data. Data were analyzed using the frequency and percentage, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, chi-square test RESULTS:60 % of the patients who participated in the study were at high risk of falling. Most of the measures taken to fall in patients: Cont inuous possession of accompanying (%37.4), the use of stretchers and beds balustrades (%62.3) and physical detection (%10.6).

Özet

AMAÇ: Hastaların güvenliğini sağlamada düşmeleri önlemek önemlidir. Çalışma dâhili kliniklerde yatan hastaların düşme riski düzeyini ve alınan önlemleri belirlemek amacı ile yapılmıştır. YÖNTEM: Çalışmanın evrenini bir üniversite hastanesinin dâhili kliniklerine yatan hastalar, örneklemi ise Mart-Haziran 2011 tarihleri arasında çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 470 hasta oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, hastaların demografik özelliklerini tanıtıcı anket formu ve Hendrich II Düşme Riski Formu kullanılarak araştırmacılar tarafından yüz yüze görüşülerek toplanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçları SPSS programında değerlendirilmiş, istatistiksel analizde; frekans ve yüzdelik, aritmetik ortalama, standart sapma ve Ki- kare testi kullanılmıştır. BULGULAR: Çalışmaya katılan hastaların %60’ının düşme riskinin yüksek olduğu ve düşme riski yüksek olan hastaları korumak amacı ile sürekli refakatçi bulundurma (%37,4), yatak kenarlığını yükseltme (%62,3) ve fiziksel tespit (%10,6) gibi önlemlerin alındığı belirlenmiştir SONUÇ: Dâhili kliniklerinde yatan hastaların düşme riskinin yüksek olduğu, alınan hemşirelik önlemlerinin ise yetersiz olduğu belirlenmiştir.
