The aim of this study is to compare the accuracy and clinical predictive value of the Michigan Risk Score, Caprini Risk Assessment Model , and Maneval Scale (Chinese version)in predicting PICC-related thrombosis.
This research was conducted to examine the effect of video-assisted teaching on the health education skill of midwifery students.
It was aimed to examine the effect of telerehabilitation on clinical stress level and stress responses in nursing students.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the possible prognostic performance of RV dysfunction, as assessed by TAPSE, in non-cardiac patients with septic shock.
Our study aims at investigating short and long-term outcomes following surgery for subaxial spine injuries in the elderly (octogenarian) population.
This retrospective study is looking into mechanisms of drug therapy resistance in FFPE samples in recurrent and refractory Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) in pediatric patients who have experienced lung recurrence. The study employs advanced techniques such as single-cell transcriptomics and spatial transcriptomics to gain a comprehensive understanding of these mechanisms.
Physical therapy and rehabilitation may improve low back pain and quality of life after lumbar disc herniation. But there is not any agreement of its optimal start time, and rehabilitative methods. This study evaluates the effects of early and late rehabilitation to the low back pain and quality of life following unilateral microdiscectomy.
Background: Hemodialysis affects patients' lives and is associated with social, occupational, psychological, and societal problems. Mind-body interventions (MBIs), like mindfulness meditation, have been gaining popularity in the health sector. Pain, sleep quality, and self-esteem have all been positively impacted by MBIs in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Health care providers may be able to provide more thorough care if they are aware of these interventions. Purpose: To assess the impact of mindfulness meditation on pain, quality of sleep, and self-esteem, and self-management in patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis in Jordan. Methods: An experimental repeated measure, randomized, parallel control design was conducted on 60 patients with ESRD undergoing hemodialysis between March and June 2023 in the dialysis center at Alkarak governmental hospital, Jordan. Participants were randomly assigned to the experimental (N =30) and control groups (N =30) using a simple random assignment method. The experimental group practiced mindfulness meditation for 30 minutes three times per week for five weeks during their hemodialysis treatments. The control group's patients continued to receive hemodialysis treatment as usual, with three hemodialysis sessions for five weeks without any additional intervention. The study variables for both groups were measured at baseline (T0), two weeks after intervention (T1), and at the end of intervention (T2). Variables were measured by the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES-M) questionnaire. Descriptive statistics like frequency, mean, and standard deviation were used to describe participants. The repeated measures ANOVA (within-subject) tests were used to examine the study hypotheses.
Children have a highly compliant chest wall and atelectasis formation occurs often during pediatric anesthesia. Inhalation induction is commonly performed in pediatric anesthesia but it is still unclear if this can have an effect on the development of atelectasis. Aim of this study is to investigate the impact of inhalation versus intravenous induction on atelectasis formation during anesthesia induction in children. Atelectasis will be evaluated with lung ultrasound before induction and right after induction.
The aim of this study is to conduct a Turkish validity and reliability study of the hand ability scale in the elderly population. Thus, the psychometric properties of the scale, which evaluates hand use in daily life activities in detail and functionally, will be determined in the elderly and an alternative method will be created to evaluate hand functions in the elderly.The sample of the study consists of 220 elderly individuals aged 65 and over residing in the city center of Isparta. Two independent native Turkish translators performed forward translation. To ensure clinical consistency, it was sent to an expert committee of seven expert physiotherapists, 2 neurologists, 1 gerontologist, and 2 translators with no medical or clinical background to reveal vague concepts in the original questionnaire. A single consequent Turkish translation was formed from the combination of the two translations The Turkish scale was translated back into English by two English-native speakers who speak Turkish fluently, and the English version of the scale was compared to the original. A group of experts authorized the final version of the document in Turkish, which was back ward translation. Translators reviewed the translations and compared certain inconsistencies.
