Abstract：
BACKGROUND: One of the challenges experienced by new graduate nurses during the transition into practice is caring for dying patients. This study aimed to determine new graduate nurses\' approaches to death and dying patients and the relationship between death anxiety and death awareness.
METHODS: This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted with 226 new graduate nurses in Istanbul, Türkiye. A personal and work environment characteristics form, the Approach to Death and Dying Patients Attitude Scale, Templer\'s Death Anxiety Scale, and Multidimensional Mortality Awareness Measure were used to collect data.
RESULTS: Hardness in communicating with the dying patients (hardness: meaning difficulty) and their relatives and avoiding death and dying patients were considered moderate, with mean scores of 2.64 ± .63 and 2.45 ± .40, out of 4. Death anxiety accounted for approximately 7% of the variance of hardness in communicating with dying patients and their relatives, which is statistically significant. Death awareness statistically significantly explained 9.7% of avoiding death and dying patients.
CONCLUSIONS: For new graduate nurses, besides simulation-based training on end-of-life care, approaches to sharing their experiences about death and programs to determine a value system related to death may be recommended.

摘要：
背景：新毕业护士在过渡到实践过程中遇到的挑战之一是照顾垂死的患者。这项研究旨在确定新的研究生护士死亡和垂死患者的方法以及死亡焦虑与死亡意识之间的关系。
方法：这是描述性的，在伊斯坦布尔对226名新毕业护士进行了横断面研究，蒂尔基耶.个人和工作环境特征的形式，死亡和临终患者态度量表，坦普尔的死亡焦虑量表，并使用多维死亡率感知测量来收集数据。
结果：与垂死患者及其亲属交流的硬度（硬度：表示困难）以及避免死亡和垂死患者的硬度被认为是中等的，平均得分为2.64±.63和2.45±.40，满分4分。在与垂死的患者及其亲属进行交流时，死亡焦虑约占硬度变化的7％。具有统计学意义。死亡意识在统计学上显着解释了9.7％的避免死亡和垂死的患者。
结论：对于新毕业的护士，除了基于模拟的临终关怀培训，可以推荐分享他们关于死亡的经验和确定与死亡相关的价值体系的方法。
