简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the effects of family-centered care practices on parental satisfaction and anxiety levels in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).
详细描述
Admission of a child to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) is one of the most stressful experiences a family can face. Parents of critically ill children frequently experience high levels of anxiety, helplessness, and loss of parental role. Family-centered care (FCC) is a philosophy of care that recognizes the family as an essential component of the child's care team, emphasizing partnership, participation, and information sharing between healthcare providers and families.Although FCC has been increasingly advocated in pediatric critical care settings, its systematic implementation and measurable impact on parental outcomes remain insufficiently studied in the Turkish PICU context.This study will be conducted in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of Kastamonu Training and Research Hospital, Kastamonu, Turkey. Kastamonu Training and Research Hospital is a tertiary-level public hospital serving the Kastamonu province and surrounding regions.his is a quasi-experimental study with an intervention group and a control group. A total of 80 parents will be enrolled: 40 in the intervention group and 40 in the control group. Participants will be recruited consecutively. Parents in the control group will receive standard care, while parents in the intervention group will receive a structured family-centered care protocol in addition to standard care.Parents assigned to the intervention group will participate in a structured FCC protocol delivered by trained PICU nurses, which includes:
Active parental participation in care: Parents will be encouraged and supported to participate in their child's daily care activities such as comfort care, positioning, and feeding where clinically appropriate.
Structured informational meetings: Parents will receive regular, planned verbal and written information from the nursing staff and medical team regarding their child's condition and care plan.
Family-centered care education booklet: Parents will be provided with an informational booklet developed specifically for the PICU environment at Kastamonu Training and Research Hospital, covering what to expect during the ICU stay, how to communicate with the care team, and how to actively participate in care.he control group will receive routine standard care as currently practiced in the unit, without the structured FCC protocol or the educational booklet.

Parental Anxiety Level Parental anxiety will be measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). The scale consists of two subscales: state anxiety (STAI-I) and trait anxiety (STAI-II), each containing 20 items scored between 20-80. Higher scores indicate higher anxiety levels. Parental Satisfaction Parental satisfaction will be measured using the EMPATHIC-30 Scale, a validated instrument designed to measure parent satisfaction in pediatric intensive care units. The scale consists of 30 items rated on a 5-point Likert scale. Higher scores indicate higher satisfaction levels.
