Abstract
Post-burn itching is an important problem that disturbs patients during the treatment and rehabilitation process of burns. This study aims to reflect the clinical views of nurses caring for patients with post-burn itching and to contribute to the healing process and treatment process by contributing to the care process of patients with post-burn itching. This study was conducted with 10 nurses working in the burn unit using a phenomenological design, one of the qualitative research types. The data were collected face-to-face between August and October 2023 using individual in-depth interviews. The data were analysed by the researchers using thematic analysis. Six main themes and 23 sub-themes were identified in the study. Main themes: types of burns with itching, anatomical regions, itching process, problems experienced in care, methods used to relieve itching, and suggestions for dealing with itching. The results of this study reveal the views of nurses on the management of itching after burns. The findings will contribute to the development of more effective care strategies and increase patient satisfaction by increasing the knowledge and awareness of nurses in the clinic regarding itch management.
