Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the importance level of the needs of family members according to the perceptions of family members and nurses, and the satisfaction level of these needs. Material and Method: The research was carried out in the internal medicine and intensive care units of a university hospital. 100 family members and 105 nurses were participated. Critical Care Family Needs Inventory was used to determine the importance and satisfaction levels of the family members ‘needs. Results: According to the "Critical Care Family Needs Inventory", the needs of family members were “very important” (3.40± 041) for family members and “important” (2.23±027) for nurses. These needs included in the "Critical Care Family Needs Inventory" were "slightly satisfied" (2.07±0.39). The assurance/proximity and information needs were “very important” for the family members and “important” for the nurses, and the majority of the needs were mostly satisfied. Support/comfort needs were “important” for family members and “slightly important” for the nurses, and these needs were slightly satisfied.
Conclusion: The research showed that the needs in the “Critical Care Family Needs Inventory” were very important for family members, but these needs were not mostly satisfied. In the research, it was a remarkable result that the needs considered very important for nurses were mostly satisfied. Therefore, explaining/introducing these very important needs for family members to ICU nurses may allow these needs to be satisfied.

Abstract
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, aile bireylerinin ve hemşirelerin algılarına göre aile bireylerinin ihtiyaçlarının önem derecesi ve bu ihtiyaçların karşılanma düzeylerinin belirlenmesidir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma bir üniversite hastanesinin dahiliye ve yoğun bakım ünitelerinde gerçekleştirildi. 100 aile üyesi 105 hemşire katılım gösterdi. Aile bireylerinin ihtiyaçlarının önem ve memnuniyet düzeylerini belirlemek için Yoğun Bakım Aile İhtiyaçları Envanteri kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: “Yoğun Bakım Ailesinin Gereksinimleri Envanteri”’ne göre aile üyelerinin ihtiyaçları aile üyeleri için “çok önemli” (3,40± 041), hemşireler için “önemli” (2,23±027) idi. “Yoğun Bakım Aile İhtiyaçları Envanterinde” yer alan bu ihtiyaçlar “biraz karşılandı” (2,07±0,39). Güven/ yakınlık ve bilgi ihtiyacı aile üyeleri için “çok önemli”, hemşireler için “önemli” idi ve ihtiyaçların büyük çoğunluğu karşılanıyordu. Destek/rahatlatma ihtiyacı aile üyeleri için “önemli”, hemşireler için “biraz önemli” idi ve bu ihtiyaçlar kısmen karşılandı. Sonuç: Aile üyeleri “Yoğun Bakım Birimlerinde Hasta Yakınları Gereksinim Ölçeği”’nde yer alan ihtiyaçların çok önemli olduğunu ancak bu gereksinimlerin tam olarak karşılanmadığını göstermiştir. Araştırmada hemşireler için çok önemli görülen ihtiyaçların büyük oranda karşılanması dikkat çekici bir sonuçtur. Bu nedenle aile bireylerinin bu çok önemli ihtiyaçlarının yoğun bakım hemşirelerine anlatılması/tanıtılması bu ihtiyaçların karşılanmasını sağlayabilir.
