RESUMO
Purpose: The purpose of this descriptive study is to determine the relationship between nurses' compassion level and emotional intelligence during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used to collect data from a sample of 218 nurses who volunteered to participate. Data were collected using the descriptive information form, the compassion scale (CS), and the revised Schutte emotional intelligence scale (RSEIS). Findings: The nurses' total CS score was 97.51 ± 1, and their total RSEIS score was 152.1 ± 14.8. In our study, a moderate, positive, and significant relationship was found between nurses' compassion level and emotional intelligence levels. Conclusions: It was determined that nurses within the scope of the study had a high level of compassion and a medium-high level of emotional intelligence during the COVID-19 pandemic process. Initiatives should be planned to develop emotional intelligence, which helps to minimize the negative effects of the pandemic on nurses and prevent negative emotions.

Totally implantable venous-access ports (TIVAPs) are valuable instruments for long-term intravenous treatment of patients with cancer, but implantation and use of these devices are each associated with complications. In addition to the perioperative problems, long-term complications can arise; these can be classified in five categories-catheter malfunction, catheter-related venous thrombosis, catheter-related infection, port-related complications, and extravasation injury. Such complications reduce the benefits of reliable access to the venous system in patients with malignant tumours. The vast majority of such disadvantages are attributable to inexpert handling of ports and, therefore, should be avoidable. TIVAP placement procedures and TIVAP complications are discussed in this review, with special emphasis on local problems and extravasation injuries. To obtain maximum benefit from TIVAPs, all health-care personnel must be familiar with the use and routine maintenance procedures of the devices and treatment options for catheter-related complications.
