Stavanger, Norway | 12 - 15 May 2022 10th EORNA Congress Round Table Sessions 31 Conclusions: This study highlights the significant impact of pandemic on the perioperative nursing care, interpersonal relationships, and stress of nurses working in operating rooms. A discussion on this topic is urgent, since the study results could have relevant implications for the quality of nursing care, patient safety, and nurses’ work engagement.

The new coronavirus disease is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The early clinical symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, cough, and shortness of breath. Comorbidities and new symptoms led to an upward trend in transmission, prevalence, and mortality rates. Most patients have acute respiratory complications and are treated in intensive care units to support respiratory functions. The disease has prognostic uncertainty and symptoms varying from patient to patient. This study discussed the nursing care and experiences of two patients who were treated in an ICU due to COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome. Case: The first case was a 76-year-old male patient admitted to the clinic with symptoms of high fever, tiredness, shortness of breath, and arrhythmia. The second case was a 70-year-old female patient admitted to the clinic with symptoms of cough, fever, diarrhea, tachycardia, and respiratory failure. They were the first COVID-19 patients of a university hospital in Turkey. The mean intubation and ICU length of stay were 22 and 26 days. The patients received antivirals and steroids, and plasma transfusion and were followed up with conventional ARDS procedures, such as prone position, and high flow oxygen device and mechanical ventilators. The Neuman systems model and Henderson’s Theory of 14 Basic Needs in Nursing Care were used to analyse their experiences. Conclusion: It is an indisputable fact that high-quality nursing care has a significant impact on ICU COVID-19 patients with a high mortality rate. ICU nursing care should be planned according to individual differences and needs due to possible complications and comorbidities. Nursing models lead the way for high-quality nursing care, new research, professional training, and care practices, and contribute to the development of professional autonomy.

After searching for existing solutions in the market, it was found that these devices reached high prices and were not available due to high demand. Objective: The aim of this project was to develop an economically accessible autonomous robotic Ultraviolet C irradiation (UVC) model able to efficiently disinfect healthcare facilities. Method: Universities and R&D institutions were contacted by members of the nursing team of the OR. After positive feedback, the project began to take shape with an interdisciplinary collaboration of professionals from different areas (nursing, medicine, veterinary medicine, biotechnology, engineering) under a scope of One Health participatory approach. A funding pitch and a project schedule with milestones were made and presented to sponsors, which afforded the
