The parents of the babies included in the experimental group were asked to fill in the questionnaires. The infant's skin condition was assessed using the Scale for Assessing the Severity of Uncomplicated Diaper Dermatitis in Infants. Each time the diaper was changed, the diaper area was cleaned with water and cotton wool and dried, 1-2 cc of natural extra virgin olive oil was applied, and the new diaper was fastened. At the end of each day, the diaper area was evaluated by the researcher and a nurse by using the Scale for Assessing the Severity of Uncomplicated Diaper Dermatitis in Infants.
