Abstract

Aim: This study was conducted descriptively to determine the relationship between disease managements and the perception of the support given by nurse of the parents whose children were monitored in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). Materials and Methods: This study was carried out between August-December 2018 in a PICU. The sample of the study comprised 108 parents whose children were being monitored for a chronic disease diagnosis. The study data were collected via two data collection forms, "The Family Management of Childhood Chronic Conditions" (FaMM) and "Nurse Parent Support Tool" (NPST). Results: The parents' gender, knowledge about the disease and the FaMM three sub-dimension score averages were not statistically significant (p>0.05). However, the difference between the parents' educational background, income status, the factors of support from the social environment and the sub-dimension score averages were significant (p<0.05). While the difference between the interviewed parents' gender and income status and NPST score averages were not significant (p>0.05); the difference between the interviewed parents' educational background, knowledge about the disease, the status of support from the social environment and NPST score averages were significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was concluded that as the perceived support from nurses of the parents of the child with chronic disease increases, the disease management increases.
