Kap/Bardak/Fincanla Besleme
Anne sütü, yenidoğanın sağlıklı büyümesi ve gelişmesi için psikomotor ve bilişsel gelişimine katkı sağlayan bebeğin ilk aşısı olarak da tanımlanabilecek mucizevi bir besindir. Ülkemizde emzirmeye başlama oranı yüksek olmasına karşın emzirmenin sürdürülmesi hedeflenenin çok altındadır. Bu sürecin sağlıklı başlayıp sürdürülebilmesini etkileyen birçok faktör bulunmakla birlikte annenin emzirme davranışlarının gözlenmesi, değerlendirilmesi önemlidir. Anne bebeğini besleme konusunda zorluk çekiyorsa, bebeğin anne sütünü almasına yardımcı olmanın bir başka yolu da kap kullanmaktır. Annelere doğru emzirme danışmanlığı verilerek alternatif besleme yöntemlerinin öğretilmesi önemlidir. Bu olgu çalışması, tam emzirilemeyen preterm yenidoğanın, kap ile alternatif beslenme seçeneği sunularak başarılı emzirmenin sağlanması, risk faktörlerinin tanımlanması ve tıbbi yönetim stratejilerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. A miracle food, breast milk can also be thought of as the infant's first vaccination, supporting the newborn's cognitive and psychomotor development for normal growth and development. Despite the high prevalence of breastfeeding initiation in our nation, the rate of breastfeeding continuation falls well short of the desired level. The healthy initiation and continuation of this process are influenced by a variety of variables, but it is crucial to monitor and assess the mother's breastfeeding practices. Another option for a mother who is struggling to feed her infant is to use a cup to help the infant get breast milk. It's critical to teach moms alternate feeding techniques and give them appropriate breastfeeding guidance. By providing an alternate feeding option with a cup, this case study aims to determine risk factors and investigate medical treatment techniques for the effective breastfeeding of preterm infants who are unable to be breastfed in their entirety.

COVID-19 with woman academicians' perspective in Türkiye: Hopelessness and well-being
This study aimed to determine the hopelessness and well-being levels of woman academics during the COVID-19 pandemic. This cross-sectional and analytical study was conducted online between February and May 2022 at the end of the fourth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study was conducted with 341 woman academics from state and foundation universities in Türkiye. The mean score from the Beck Hopelessness Scale was 6.02 ± 4.84, and the mean score from the Flourishing Scale (FS) was 43.50 ± 7.24. There was a significant negative correlation between flourishing scores and low, mild, moderate, and high hopelessness scores (p = .038, p < .001, p = .001, p = .034, respectively); as participants' level of hopelessness increases, their FS scores decrease significantly (r: -.689, p < .001). Revealing the effects of changes in the routine and academic activities of woman academics on hopelessness and well-being during the COVID-19 pandemic process has the potential to reduce possible risks that may develop in pandemics, and contribute to reducing the hopelessness levels and increasing well-being of woman academics.

Compassion fatigue and loneliness at work in nurses – the mediating role of resilience: a cross-sectional study
Background: Heavy workload, job stress and lack of colleague support can lead to loneliness and burnout in nurses. Caring for a patient with constant pain can cause compassion fatigue. Loneliness at work and compassion fatigue also negatively affect the quality of patient care. Aim: This study aims to determine the effect of resilience on loneliness at work and compassion fatigue in nurses. Method: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study. The study was conducted with a total of 214 nurses. Results: A statistically significant negative relationship was found between the level of loneliness at work and resilience, and between resilience and compassion fatigue in nurses. The mediating role of resilience was found to be significant in the effect of loneliness at work on compassion fatigue in nurses. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest empowering nurses who have loneliness at work and compassion fatigue. Compassion fatigue is seen as occupational deformation. Nurses need to learn how to manage compassion fatigue, develop coping skills and receive support to ensure job satisfaction. In addition, nurse managers should create a reasonable workload for nurses. These efforts can increase the job satisfaction and patient care quality of nursing departments.

Clinical and laboratory differences between healthy and COVID-19 positive pregnant women and the negative effects of COVID-19 on pregnancy
Introduction: Depending on pregnancy; physiological changes in the immune system, respiratory and circulatory systems may cause a more severe course of infection with respiratory viruses. The aim of this study is to examine the clinical and laboratory findings of our pregnant patients with and without COVID-19 and to determine whether COVID-19 disease has a negative effect on late pregnancy. Methods: This study was conducted with a total of 60 pregnant patients followed in the Infectious Diseases and Clinical Microbiology Clinic and Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic of a Training and Research Hospital. Demographic characteristics and laboratory findings of pregnant women and their fetuses were obtained from the hospital management information system. Results: The mean age of the COVID-19 positive pregnant women (n:30) included in the study was 28.87±1.38 years, the mean hospitalization time was 6.33±0.35 days, and it was significantly different from the COVID-19 negative group (n:30) (p<0.001). The most common symptom observed in COVID-19 positive pregnant women at presentation was fever (73.3%), followed by cough (53.3%) and headache (43.3%). C-reactive protein (25.53±5.79, p: 0.005), ferritin (83.97±10.51, p: 0.005) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (30.97± 4.59, p: 0.011) were found to be higher in COVID-19 positive pregnant women. Conclusion: In conclusion; CRP, ferritin and ESR levels were found to be higher in pregnant women with COVID-19. It is important for healthcare providers to know the clinical course of COVID-19, maternofetal or obstetric outcomes in the pregnant population. Mode and timing of delivery should be individualized according to disease severity, pre-existing maternal comorbidities, obstetric history, gestational age, and fetal conditions.

Burnout status, occupational satisfaction, and intention to leave the profession of nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic period; The Case of Turkey
We examined the burnout status, professional satisfaction and intention to leave the profession of nurses who are actively working in Turkey during the COVID-19 pandemic period. We conducted the descriptive study with 371 nurses and collected using Copenhagen Burnout Scale (CBS), Occupational satisfaction scale (OSS) and Intention to leave the profession scale (ILPS). In this study, nurses showed a high level of exhaustion and intention to leave work, and a low level of occupational satisfaction. In the fight against COVID-19, the continuity of health services, at the same time, in order to provide adequate quality and safe health care, reducing working hours, bringing the shifts to an appropriate and reasonable time, improving the working environment and approaches that will increase their motivation and professional satisfaction are important to prevent nurses from experiencing burnout and to keep them in their professions and workplaces.
