Abstract

Web-based education methods are used for the patients and their relatives in detecting, preventing and controlling the symptoms in the early period of patients with hematological malignancies, and for the patients to spend this period in the most comfortable and smooth way. It is very important for patients to gain symptom self-management through web-based education.
The purpose of this review is to examine the importance of web-based education in symptom management in patients with hematological malignancy.
The screening was made without any year limitation on the subject and eight studies were reached.
In studies in which attempts are examined; In web-based educational applications, there are positive suggestions for patients to manage their symptoms, to coordinate comprehensive treatment programs and medication plans. These initiatives allow patients to test alternative solutions, review data and find reference best practices during problem solving. In addition, it encourages patients to learn continuously and ensure that they receive comprehensive care. It is reported that web-based education contributes positively to patients' updating their knowledge. For this reason, as healthcare professionals, nurses are recommended to control the symptoms of patients diagnosed with hematological malignancy through web-based education during the COVID-19 pandemic process, and strengthen symptom self-management by informing patients and increasing their awareness.

Hematolojik Malignensi Tanılı Hastalarda Web Tabanlı Eğitimin Semptom Yönetimindeki Önemi: Literatür Derlemesi

Abstract

Hematolojik malignensi tanılı hastaların semptomlarının erken dönemde saptanması, önlenmesi ve kontrol altına alınmasında, hastaların bu dönemi en rahat biçimde ve sorunsuz olarak geçirmelerinde, hasta ve hasta yakınları için web tabanlı eğitim yöntemleri kullanılmaktadır. Hastaların web tabanlı eğitimler yoluyla semptom öz yönetimi kazanabilmeleri oldukça önemlidir.
Bu derlemenin amacı, hematolojik malignensi tanılı hastalarda web tabanlı eğitimin semptom yönetimindeki önemini incelemektir.
Konu ile ilgili yıl sınırlaması yapılmaksızın tarama yapılmış ve sekiz çalışmaya ulaşılmıştır.
Girişimlerin incelendiği çalışmalarda; web tabanlı eğitim uygulamalarında, hastaların semptomlarını yönetmelerine, kapsamlı tedavi programlarına ve ilaç planlarını koordine etmelerine yönelik olumlu öneriler mevcuttur. Bu girişimler hastaların problem çözme işlemi sırasında alternatif çözümleri test etmesine, verileri yeniden gözden geçirmesine ve referans olabilecek en iyi uygulamalara ulaşabilmelerine olanak sağlamaktadır. Ayrıca hastaları sürekli öğrenmeye teşvik etmekte ve kapsamlı bakım hizmeti alabilmelerini sağlamaktadır. Web tabanlı eğitimlerin hastaların bilgilerini güncellemelerine olumlu katkılar sağladığı bildirilmektedir. Bu nedenle sağlık profesyonelleri olarak hemşirelerin, COVID-19 pandemi sürecinde web tabanlı eğitimler yoluyla hematolojik malignensi tanılı hastaların semptomlarını kontrol etmeleri, hastaları bilgilendirerek ve farkındalıklarını artırarak semptom öz yönetimini güçlendirmeleri önerilmektedir.
