Brief Summary:
TSummary Project Scope: This study aimed to determine the effect of aromatherapy applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue and sleep quality.
Method: The research will be carried out in two stages, qualitative and quantitative, to determine the effect of aromatherapy applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue and sleep quality.
Quantitative Phase of the Research; The application areas and duration of massage will be explained practically by the researcher. Nurses experiencing fatigue and sleep problems in the intensive care unit were treated once a day, 30 minutes before going to bed, for a total of 8 minutes, 4 minutes at the edges of the right and left nostrils, and 4 minutes behind the right and left ears. , for four weeks. It is a randomized controlled, single-blind study conducted to determine the effect of 3% chamomile and 3% lavender oil mixture in the intervention-2 group and 3% vetiver oil in the intervention-2 group on fatigue and sleep quality. Individuals in the placebo control group will be massaged with jojoba oil.
Data in the study; It will be collected with the Personal Information Form, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Piper Fatigue Scale, pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Practice Monitoring Schedule-Researcher Form, Practice Monitoring Schedule and Nurse Form (Visual Analog Scale/VAS Scale) and Oil Application. Nurse Opinion Form.
The universe of the research; It will consist of 260 intensive care nurses working on the same shifts in the intensive care units of SBÜ Kayseri City Training and Research Hospital, located in the city center of Kayseri.
The sample size of the study was initially determined as 60 people in total, including 20 people in the intervention group-1, 20 people in the intervention group-2 and 20 people in the placebo group. Taking into account the research data, the selection of people will continue until the sufficient number is reached according to the results of statistical power analysis.
Qualitative phase of the research; At the end of the four-week application, it will be carried out with a total of 15 people, 5 from the intervention-1, intervention-2 and placebo-control groups. Interviews will continue until data saturation is reached.
As a result of the research, it is expected that the fatigue and sleep problems of the individuals in the intervention groups will improve and their sleep quality will increase.

Detailed Description:
In the research planned as mixed design, qualitative and quantitative type; In the quantitative section, 3% massage was applied to patients with IBD who have fatigue and sleep problems, once a day, 30 minutes before going to bed, for a total of 8 minutes, including 4 minutes on the edges of the right and left nostrils and 4 minutes behind the right and left ears, for four weeks. A randomized controlled trial will be conducted to determine the effect of a mixture of chamomile and 3% lavender oil and 3% vetiver oil on fatigue and sleep quality levels.
The effects of the oil mixture application shown by the researcher and applied by the nurses during the study, Assoc. Dr. Ali Çetinkaya and Dr. It will be carried out under the medical support/supervision of Ali Saz.
In the qualitative part of the research, it was planned using in-depth interview method and semi-structured survey before and after the aromatherapy massage applied to the earlobes and neck muscles for three weeks to the nurses in the intervention group.
