This study was conducted to determine the use of traditional and complementary treatment in wound care and the opinions of individuals in Turkey.
The descriptive study was completed with 536 adult individuals. The research data were collected using the "Personal Information Form", "Questionnaire on Traditional and Complementary Treatment Methods Used in Wound Care" and "Questionnaire on Opinions Regarding the Use of Traditional and Complementary Treatment in Wound Care" prepared in line with the literature. Descriptive statistics were used in the evaluation of the data.
When a wound occurs on the body, 31 % of the participants reported that they first applied traditional and complementary treatment. It was determined that the participants experienced surgical wounds (55.7 %) and burn wounds (46.1 %) the most. The first three biological-based approaches used by individuals in wound care were hypericum perforatum (60.8 %), aloe vera (39.6 %), and honey (36.8 %). In other approaches used by individuals in wound care, the first three methods are prayer (54.1 %), vaseline application (47.1 %), and massage (37.8 %), respectively. In addition, 64.7 % of the individuals reported that they thought these methods were useful in wound care, 60.1 % reported that they accelerated healing, and 46.8 % reported that they prevented scarring.
It was determined that individuals commonly used various traditional and complementary treatment methods in wound care. It is also noteworthy that these methods are highly accepted by individuals. Therefore, it is important for nurses, who play a key role in wound care, to know the methods commonly used in society and to follow the developments in this field.
本研究旨在确定土耳其传统和辅助治疗在伤口护理中的使用情况以及个人看法。
对536名成年人完成了描述性研究。研究数据通过根据文献编制的“个人信息表”、“伤口护理中使用的传统和辅助治疗方法问卷”以及“关于伤口护理中使用传统和辅助治疗的看法问卷”收集。数据评估采用描述性统计。
当身体出现伤口时，31%的参与者报告称他们首先采用传统和辅助治疗。确定参与者经历手术伤口（55.7%）和烧伤伤口（46.1%）的情况最为常见。个人在伤口护理中使用的前三种基于生物的方法分别是贯叶连翘（60.8%）、芦荟（39.6%）和蜂蜜（36.8%）。在个人用于伤口护理的其他方法中，前三种方法分别是祈祷（54.1%）、涂抹凡士林（47.1%）和按摩（37.8%）。此外，64.7%的个人报告称他们认为这些方法对伤口护理有用，60.1%报告称它们加速了愈合，46.8%报告称它们防止了瘢痕形成。
确定个人在伤口护理中普遍使用各种传统和辅助治疗方法。同样值得注意的是，这些方法被个人高度接受。因此，对于在伤口护理中起关键作用的护士来说，了解社会上常用的方法并关注该领域的发展很重要。
