Filter by:In our study, yoga asana and pranayama practices, which will be applied by video call from computer or phone, will be advantageous in terms of time, transportation and access to asthmatic children whose anxiety and anxiety levels increase during the COVID-19 period, whose access to hospital services is difficult, and whose physical activity level decreases due to the increase in screen time. It was aimed to examine the effects of these group exercises on Asthma Control, Functional Capacity, Physical Fitness, Physical Activity and Quality of Life. In the randomized controlled study, the treatment and control group will be determined by the closed envelope method, the control group will be placed on the waiting list and yoga will be practiced at the end of the study. The first and final evaluation will be done face to face in a clinical setting. The total duration will be 12 weeks, 3 days a week and 36 sessions between 8-8:40 in the evening. Researchers who will do yoga have a certificate of practice. Patients will be followed up in Hacettepe University Medical Faculty Asthma Allergy Clinic.
The aim of this research is to examine the effect of mobile application game training designed for children aged 8-16 years on asthma management and quality of life. The population of the study will be children in the 8-12 age group who applied to the Mersin Pediatric Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Specialist's clinic, and the sample will consist of 78 children with asthma who meet the criteria for inclusion in the research. This age group has problems in solving abstract problems, it is necessary to embody it in order to facilitate the understanding of the disease process. Therefore, it is important to embody the training given in the increase of self-management related to the disease process of this age group. While determining the sample size of the study, Arıkan-Ayyıldız et al. (2016) based on the scientific study named "Efficacy of asthma education program on asthma control in children with uncontrolled asthma". In the Arıkan-Ayyıldız study, it was reported that the total mean score of "ACT" (Asthma Control Test-Asthma Control Test) was 13.8±3.4 in the experimental group and 15.6±3.2 in the control group. As a result of the Power analysis (G*Power 3.1.9.2) made according to these data; effect size = 0.78, with 95% confidence interval, 95% power, it was calculated that a total of 72 children with asthma, at least 36 in each group, should be included. Considering that there may be dropout and confounders during the research process, the number of groups was increased by 10%. The sample of the research; was a total of 78 children, including 39 children in each intervention group. In collecting research data; the Child and Parent Information Form, Inhaler Usage Skills Evaluation Form, Asthma Symptom and Treatment Need Scoring, DISABKIDS Asthma Scale will be used. A statistical package program (SPSS 20) will be used in the analysis of the research data. The statistical significance level was determined as 0.05. Kolmogorov-Smirnov will be used in the normality analysis of dependent variables. Chi-square and mean-to-means comparison tests will be used to determine the similarity of the groups. Appropriate parametric or non-parametric tests will be used according to the distribution's normality in comparing the means between groups and within groups.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to examine the effect of education given to asthmatic children and their parents by taking health literacy into account on disease self-management. The study was conducted with 88 children and their parents between October 2018 and July 2019. While education and booklets were given to both children and parents in intervention group 1, only the children were given the education and the booklets in intervention group 2. There was no intervention applied for the control group. Post-test was performed 3 weeks after the education and then follow-ups were carried out in the next three months over the phone.
The aim of the study was to evaluate if there were differences in oral findings between patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis and/or asthma and a control group of health people.
Aim: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of health care transition-based education on transition readiness and self-efficacy in adolescents (14-18 years) with asthma through a randomized controlled experimental study that integrated the literature, model, and research on the transition from pediatrics to adult care. The research hypotheses are as follows: H0: There is no significant difference between the intervention and control groups' mean "Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire", "Self Efficacy Scale for Children and Adolescents with Asthma" and "Mind the Gap Scale" scores before and after the education they received on health care transition. H1: The mean "Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire", "Self Efficacy Scale for Children and Adolescents with Asthma" and "Mind the Gap Scale" score of the treatment group is significantly higher than the control group after the education they received on health care transition.
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of virtual care for children with asthma on the disease management and quality of life of children with asthma.
The aim of this pilot randomised controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of a short-term financial incentives intervention at bringing about behaviour change, namely short-medium term improvements in inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) adherence and asthma control in children and young people (CYP) with asthma.
The purpose of this study was to establish the effect on pulse rate, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate, pain and anxiety levels of Fowler's and the forward-leaning positions during nebulization in children experiencing asthma attacks.
As inflammation and oxidative stress increase in asthma patients, the severity of symptoms and clinical findings increase. Therefore, this study was planned to evaluate the possible effect of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) on inflammation markers and oxidative stress in childhood asthma. The study included asthma patient; 35 routine medication, 35 drug therapy and inspiratory muscle training (IMT), and 35 healthy total 105 children aged 8-17 years. Demographic information and hemogram values were recorded. Functional capacity was evaluated with the 6-minute walking test, quality of life PedsQL, respiratory muscle strength oral pressure measuring device, respiratory function test, dyspnea severity with Modified Borg Scale. C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Periostin, Transforming Growth Factor-βeta (TGF-β), Total Antioxidant Status (TAS), Total Oxidant Status (TOS), Oxidative Stress Index (OSI) were analyzed. IMT was given with a Threshold IMT device for 7 days/6 weeks at 30% of maximal inspiratory pressure, and then a second evaluation was made.
Social isolation rules applied to prevent and control COVID-19 disease reduce cross-infection, exposure to more allergens in the home environment, reducing hospital admissions by avoiding contamination, asthma control, fear of COVID-19 and physical activity for reasons such as increased anxiety and lack of exercise. How it will affect is unclear. Considering all these, positive or negative changes in asthma-related risk factors, changes in physical activity level, asthma attacks and control, fear of COVID-19 will be examined and contribute to the literature in children with asthma.
