    The authors regret that they identified some technical and numerical discrepancies that they wish to correct to maintain the scientific integrity of the journal. The authors sincerely apologise for the following errors: 1. Total Sample Size: In the Abstract and Methods sections, the total number of patients was stated as 283. This should be corrected to 287.2. Data Collection Dates: In the Methods section, the data collection period was reported incorrectly. The correct period is August 2017 – August 2018.3. Table 1 Updates:- In Table 1's description, "Female" is written incorrectly as a percentage. The correct figure is 69.7%. -The total count (n) in the title of Table 1 should be corrected to n=287. -In the age distribution: The number of participants for the 18–49 age group should be n=194, and for the 50 and over age group, it should be n=93. -In the "Previous surgery history" section: For the "No" category, the values should be corrected to n=118 and the percentage to 41.1%. These corrections are purely technical and do not affect the clinical findings, statistical results, or the overall conclusions of the study. The revised version of "Table 1" is provided below with the corrected values highlighted.

    The authors would like to inform you that there were some errors in the article, details of which are provided below. The data collection period is correctly stated as June to December in the Abstract; however, there is a typographical error regarding these dates in the Methods section. In the manuscript, the meeting number was inadvertently provided instead of the specific ethics committee approval date and reference number. Incorrect: The study protocol was approved by the institutional Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee (No: 15.05.2020/99). Correct: Ethical approval for the study was obtained from the Çukurova University Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee (Date: May 15, 2020; Decision No: 30). While the sample size is correctly stated as 83 in the Abstract and Tables, it was incorrectly typed as 57 within the Methods section. The correct number for the entire study is 83. The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused.

    Effect of Prewarming on Postoperative Hypothermia, Vital Signs, and Thermal Comfort: A Randomized Controlled Trial

    Akpolat, Refiye; Arslan, Sevban

    This study aimed to determine the effects of preoperative active and passive warming on postoperative hypothermia, vital signs, and perception of thermal comfort in patients scheduled to undergo elective open abdominal surgery. This was a randomized controlled study. The study sample comprised 90 patients (30 in the active warming group, 30 in the passive warming group, and 30 in the control group) who agreed to participate and met the research criteria. According to the comparison of patients’ vital signs, a statistically significant difference was observed in terms of patients’ preoperative body temperature values (v2 = 56.959; p = 0.000). A comparison of the patients’ postoperative thermal comfort perception scores yielded a statistically significant difference (v2 = 39.693; p = 0.000). Postoperative comfort scores in the active warming group were significantly higher than those in the passive warming and control groups. In conclusion, warming methods are effective in preventing undesirable postoperative hypothermia. The time to reach normothermia after surgery was shorter, vital signs were at a desirable level, and thermal comfort perceptions were higher in patients who were prewarmed.

    Investigation of Postoperative Risks of Nausea and Vomiting in Patients With Breast Cancer

    Şişman, Hamide; Arslan, Sevban; Gezer, Derya; Akpolat, Refiye; Alptekin, Dudu; Gökçe, Esma

    Purpose: To examine the risks of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in breast cancer patients. Design: Descriptive, cross-sectional study. Methods: The study was conducted in the surgical oncology department of a tertiary hospital between June 2020 and December 2020. A total of 83 female patients who were scheduled for surgical treatment for breast cancer were included in the study. The patients were evaluated using the Patient Evaluation Form created by the researcher by scanning the literature, the VAS Pain Rating Scale, and the Apfel Risk Scoring System. Findings: A significant relationship was found between age and PONV at the 2nd, 4th, 8th, 24th and 48th hours after surgery (respectively: P = .00, P = .00, P = .00, P = .00, P = .00). There was a significant correlation between the duration of surgery and PONV at 0 hour, PONV at first oral intake and PONV at 4 hours (respectively; P ˂ .01, P ˂ .01). The highest rate of PONV of all time (50.6%) at the 0th hour when the VAS scores of the patients was the highest. The PONV rate at the 48th hour was the lowest of all time periods (1.2%) (respectively; P ˂ .01, P ˂ .01). Conclusions: While women with breast cancer who have undergone mastectomy have the highest risk of postoperative and nausea vomiting in terms of age and pain severity, the duration of the operation and the first oral intake time also pose a risk. Nurses play a key role in the quality of care, patient safety, and patient satisfaction. It is recommended that institutions create evidence-based strategies and take necessary precautions in the preoperative evaluation of patients in terms of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

    The effect of Apfel risk score and fasting times on postoperative nausea and vomiting: Post-Operative Nausea and Vomiting

    Şişman, Hamide; Arslan, Sevban; Gezer, Derya; Akpolat, Refiye; Alptekin, Dudu; Gökçe, Esma

    Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is an undesirable problem with many adverse effects on the patient. The first step toward effective treatment and prevention is to identify the patient's risk factors for PONV. This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted in the General Surgery Clinic between August 2017 and August 2018 to evaluate the effect of Apfel risk score and fasting duration on PONV and draw attention to this issue. Methods: A total of 283 patients who were scheduled for elective surgery were included in the study. The patients were evaluated using the Patient Evaluation Form created by the researcher by scanning the literature, and the Apfel Risk Scoring System. Results: The solid fasting time of the patients was 18.9 ± 28.9 h, the mean fluid fasting time was 13.9 ± 7.4 h, the mean operation time was 133 ± 76 min, the perceived hunger score was 3.1 ± 3.2, and the mean thirst score was 4.3 ± 3.2 and 16.8 ± 18.5. When the Apfel Risk Score and the incidence of all-time postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) were compared, a significant correlation was found between the patients' solid food fasting times and the incidences of the 2nd, 4th, 8th, and 24th hours. PONV incidence (p ˂ 0.01). Conclusion: The fasting times of the patients are longer than recommended. There is a parallel relationship between both long fasting times and the Apfel risk score and the incidence of PONV. It is recommended that institutions establish an evidence-based policy and take the necessary precautions in the preoperative evaluation of patients in terms of postoperative nausea and vomiting and during fasting periods.
