Filter by:Crohn's disease is an intestinal inflammatory disease, causing abdominal pain, diarrhea and other symptoms. The intestinal flora disorder is closely related to the occurrence and development of Crohn's disease. Acupuncture can induce remission of Crohn's disease during mild to moderate active period, improve clinical symptoms such as abdominal pain. This study is to screen the intestinal bacteria related to abdominal pain in CD, and explore the effects of acupuncture on the intestinal flora related to abdominal pain in CD patients.
Machine learning algorithms are applied to discover gut flora markers that predict the clinical efficacy of acupuncture, so as to screen the appropriate population for acupuncture and optimise the allocation of healthcare resources.
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of foot and abdominal massage applied to after colonoscopy on abdominal distention, pain and patient satisfaction.This was a randomized controlled experimental study conducted at the Colonoscopy unit in Medica Faculty Hospital . Participants assigned to the intervention group-1 received foot massages after colonoscopy, participants assigned to the intervention group-2 received abdominal massages after colonoscopy and participants assigned to the intervention group-3 received foot and abdominal massages after colonoscopy. Participants assigned to the control group received only "routine care" after colonoscopy. The abdominal pain, distension and satisfaction levels of the patients evaluated using the Numerical Rating Scale
Inadequate pain control after cesarean section surgery causes postpartum depression, persistent pain and delayed mother-infant bonding. The investigator's aim is to asses whether ultrasound guided transversalis fascia plane block (TFPB) or transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block would improve postoperative quality of recovery and decrease postoperative opioid consumption after cesarean section surgery.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of abdominal massage on pain and distention in patients who underwent colonoscopy. Methods: This randomized controlled study was conducted between October 2019 and December 2021 with the participation of 60 patients who underwent colonoscopy in the endoscopy unit of a university hospital. Thirty patients performing abdominal massage after colonoscopy were included in the experimental group.
The evaluation of patients with abdominal pain is a challenge for the emergency physician and the selection of patients for second-level radiological examinations or endoscopic procedures is not always easy to perform. Faecal calprotectin could be a useful diagnostic marker to distinguish between "organic" or "functional" form and its determination could be helpful to select patients for further examinations, in the context of emergency setting.
Disorders of the autonomic nervous system are considered another possible cause of dysmenorrhea. spinal manual threapty is acting on the parasympathetic and sympathetic nerves. The sacrum affects all vertebrae, which affects the position of this bone, is thought to have a lot to do with dysmenorrhea. In this study, by applying spinal manual threapty threapty to the sacroiliac joint in women in their 20s with primary dysmenorrhea, we tried to present an effective treatment method by evaluating the function of the autonomic nervous system and confirming the occurrence of pain in the lower abdomen.
The goal of this non-inferiority observational study is to assess the diagnostic performance of low-dose CT with deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) in adult participants with acute abdominal conditions. The main research question is: • Can low-dose CT with DLIR achieve the same diagnostic performance as standard CT for the diagnosis of acute abdominal conditions. Participants will be examined with an additional low-dose CT directly after the standard CT. Participant will be their own controls.
Constipation is defined as infrequent defecation or difficulty in evacuation. Although the constipation problem is mostly self-managed by the patients, 22% mostly refer to primary health care providers (>50%), resulting in large expenditures for diagnostic tests and treatments. According to studies conducted in our country, the incidence of constipation varies between 22-40%, while it is stated that the prevalence of constipation in hospitalized patients is 79%. Annual medical costs due to constipation are estimated to exceed 230 million dollars. Pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods are used in the management of constipation, which is one of the most common symptoms in the hospital. The use of non-pharmacological methods is recommended due to the possibility of side effects and cost of pharmacological methods. However, the prevalence of use of non-pharmacological methods in the clinic is low. Nurses need to have knowledge about non-pharmacological methods in order to manage the problem of constipation, which is one of the most common symptoms in the hospital. Abdominal massage, which is included in the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC), is an application performed with manipulations such as pressure and rubbing on certain points on the body to reduce pain, provide relaxation and relaxation, prevent and reduce nausea, and prevent constipation.
Soluble Urokinase Plasminogen Activation Receptor (SUPAR) is a validated biomarker with applications in the study of inflammation and infection. Elevated levels of SUPAR have recently been linked to a higher mortality in patients suffering from undifferentiated sepsis, pneumonia, and more recently, COVID-19 infection. Large randomized controlled trials have been conducted on patients admitted to the emergency department (ER), regardless of the reason for admittance. These studies have stratified risk based on three cutoffs at initial measurement: - Low risk : < 3 ng/mL - Intermediate risk : entre 3 et 6 ng/mL - High risk : > 6 ng/mL Low levels of SUPAR are associated with low risk of mortality in the short and long term in patients presenting to the ED, no matter the reason for admittance. Risk stratification could be an added decision-making tool for clinicians to comfort hospital discharge. To the best of our knowledge, there is no available data on the added value of SUPAR for predicting mortality in abdominal sepsis and abdominal pain. Abdominal pain is responsible for 10 to 30 % of ER admissions. Consequently, abdominal pain is then responsible for roughly 10 % of admissions into medical and surgical wards. Mortality varies depending on patient factors. Mortality is usually stratified on age. In patients under 50 years of age, it is near 8%, but it reaches 19 % in patients over 50. Diagnostic accuracy also decreases drastically with age, reaching approximately 30 % patients over 75. Taking this into account, integrating a measure of SUPAR levels into the current standard of care could stratify the risk of complications in patients admitted to the ER with abdominal pain.
