Summary

This study was designed as an experimental study with pre-test-post-test comparisons and control groups, in order to investigate the effects of salutogenic model-based care on the individual integrity and coping attitudes of mothers with febrile children.

Detailed description

The research was conducted with 90 mothers, 45 in the experimental group and 45 in the control group, with children aged 0-5 years who were diagnosed with fever and admitted to the pediatric emergency department of Zeynep Kâmil Women and Children's Diseases Education and Research Hospital between October 1, 2023 and May 1, 2024. A total of three data collection forms were used in the research: Personal Introduction Form, Individual Integrity Sense Scale, and Coping Attitudes Assessment Scale. While the salutogenic care model was applied to the mothers in the experimental group (n=45), the routine midwifery care applied in the department was given to the mothers in the control group (n=45).
