Özet

The objective of this systematic review is to evaluate randomized controlled experimental theses conducted in the field of nursing related to pediatric surgery in Turkey. Research data were obtained by searching the YÖK National Thesis Center Database using the keywords “pediatric surgery” and “pediatric surgery” for the period from January 2014 to August 2024. A total of 8 theses meeting the criteria and authored by nurses were identified, and their bibliographic details and full texts were accessed. Of the reviewed studies, 6 are at the master’s level and 2 at the doctoral level. Measurement tools used in the theses include scales, questionnaires, and information forms. All studies were conducted within the last five years and examined the effectiveness of various intervention methods on pain, fear, and anxiety experienced by children before and after surgical procedures. Intervention methods used include technological support tools, educational materials, and distraction techniques. The results underscore the importance of nurses and healthcare professionals using various play techniques and technological tools to support children.
