Fatigue, Anxiety, and Mother-Baby Bonding and Emotional Freedom Technique
详细描述
Type of research: This study is a randomized controlled experimental study designed according to the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) guideline.
Place of the research: Bezmialem Vakıf University Central Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Obstetrics and Gynecology Service, Bezmialem Vakıf University Dragos Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and gynecology service.
Population of the Research: The population of the research consists of mothers of premature newborns who were hospitalized in Bezmialem Vakıf University Central Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Bezmialem Vakıf University Dragos Hospital Newborn Intensive Care Unit on the study dates.
Research Sample: Power analysis was conducted to determine the number of people to be included in the research. The power of the test was calculated with the G*Power 3.1 program. the effect size regarding state anxiety change was calculated as 0.866. In order to exceed the 99% value in determining the power of the study; At a significance level of 5% and an effect size of 0.866, 54 people, 27 people in the groups, need to be reached (df=26; t=2.056). In the research, it was aimed to reach a total of 64 people, 32 people in the groups, considering the high power of the test and the losses.
Analysis of Data: It was planned to use SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) for Windows 22.0 program for the statistics of the data obtained in the research. Number, percentage, mean and standard deviation will be used as descriptive statistical methods in the evaluation of the data. Differences between the rates of categorical variables in independent groups are planned to be analyzed with Chi-Square tests. The t-test will be used to compare quantitative continuous data between two independent groups, and the changes in repeated measurements within the group will be analyzed with the dependent groups t-test.

研究组 & 干预措施
EXPERİMENTAL: EFT GROUP
Steps for the Intervention Group:
Pre-Intervention:
- Participants in the intervention group will be informed about EFT, and after explaining the aim and method of the study, their consent will be obtained using the Volunteer Consent Form.
- They will complete the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and those who score 40 or higher will be included in the study.
- Afterward, information will be provided about EFT, including how the procedure will be performed and how tapping will be done. Following a discussion planned to last approximately 20 minutes, the EFT session will begin.
- Prior to the intervention, women will be asked to fill out the Descriptive Information Form, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-I), Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue (YİGBS), and Mother-Infant Bonding Scale (MIBS) forms.
- EFT Procedure Sequence:
- The first meeting will be conducted within the first 24 hours after the admission of mothers who meet the inclusion criteria for our study in the NICU.

CONTROL GROUP
Control Group Application Steps:
Control Group 1st Meeting (Pre-test):
The mothers in the control group, who have premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit, will be informed about the study. After explaining the purpose and method of the study, their consent will be obtained through the Volunteer Consent Form.
The women will complete the forms, and those with a score of 40 or above will be included in the study.
The women in the control group will be asked to complete the Descriptive Information Form, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI I-II), Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue (YİGBS), and Mother-Infant Bonding Scale (MIBS) forms.
No intervention will be provided for the mothers in the control group, but the institution's neonatal intensive care services will be available to them.
Control Group 2nd Meeting:
One week after the first meeting, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI I-II), Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue (YİGBS), and Mother-Infant Bonding Scale (MIBS) fo

1. Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue (VSSF): This is a visual analog scale designed to assess an individual's subjective level of fatigue. Participants are presented with a straight line anchored by the descriptors "not at all fatigued" (0 points) on one end and "extremely fatigued" (10 points) on the other. Participants are asked to mark the point on the line that best represents their current fatigue level. Scores range from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 10. Higher scores indicate a higher level of perceived fatigue. This scale is widely used in clinical settings due to its simplicity and efficiency.
