Choosing Wisely: De-implementing Fall Prevention Alarms in Hospitals

This is a Hybrid II de-implementation study to reduce use of fall prevention alarms in hospitals. The intervention consists of tailored, site-specific approaches for three core implementation strategies: education, audit/feedback and opinion leaders. Hospital units will be randomized to low-intensity or high-intensity coaching for the implementation of the tailored strategies.

The Effect of Peer Mentoring Model Supported by Mobile Application

This study investigates the effects of a peer-guided model supported by a mobile application on nursing students' educational processes. The primary goal of the research is to assess the potential impact of this model on students' self-efficacy, university adaptation, and academic success. The study will be conducted as a randomized controlled experimental design with 70 nursing students. The experimental group will have 35 students, while the control group will also include 35 students. The data collection tools will include a student diagnostic form, university adaptation scale, satisfaction with educational methods scale, academic self-efficacy scale, and academic achievement scale. The research process will include the application of the student diagnostic form, the development of the mobile application, an informational meeting about the peer-guided model for students, randomization, mentor-mentee assignments, initial data collection, and the stages of initiation, training, separation, and re-evaluation. The use of the peer guidance model and mobile application will be emphasized during the educational process. Motivating peer leaders and achieving the program's objectives will be ensured through peer leader seminars. Data analysis will be performed using SPSS 25.0 software, with an initial examination of the data distribution. T-tests or one-way ANOVA will be used for normally distributed variables, and the Scheffe test will be applied to identify differences. Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis tests will be used for non-normally distributed variables. Additionally, Pearson correlation analysis will determine relationships between continuous variables. The effects of independent variables will be evaluated using multiple regression analysis (Backward method). Statistical significance will be assessed at a p-value of \<0.05. This study has been designed according to CONSORT standards, and all necessary ethical approvals and institutional permissions have been obtained.

The Effect of a Peer Mentoring Program on Nursing Students

This project is designed as a quasi-experimental study to evaluate the effect of the Peer Leadership Program, established in the Nursing Department, on nursing peer mentor students' empathic self-efficacy, social self-efficacy, and youth leadership characteristics.
