Electrolyte Imbalance in Surgical and Non-Surgical Geriatric Brain Injury Patients

Investigators invite you to the research titled "Evaluation of Serum Electrolyte Imbalance in Geriatric Patients Undergoing Brain Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Observational Study" conducted by Specialist Nurse Tülin KURT ALKAN. Before participant decide whether or not to participate in this research, you need to know why and how the research will be conducted. For this reason, it is of great importance to read and understand this form. Take the time to read the information below carefully.

According to the course of the interview, it will take about 5 minutes. With the information to be obtained in line with the interviews to be held with participant, "Evaluation of Serum Electrolyte Imbalances in Geriatric Patients Undergoing Brain Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Observational Study" will be attempted. Participation in the research is completely voluntary. If participants want to at any time while the research is ongoing, participants can leave the research provided that participants inform the responsible researcher. Participants answering the questionnaire will be interpreted as giving your consent to participate in the research.
