There are about 15072 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Turkey. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
Effectiveness of erector spinae plane block for analgesia in breast surgery was documented in previous studies. Rhomboid intercostal block may be beneficial for analgesia in breast surgery. The aim of this study is to compare the peri-operative analgesic effect of rhomboid intercostal block with erector spinae plane block in mastectomy operation. This trial was designed as prospective randomized single-blind study. The included patients will be assigned into two groups: RIB-Group where the patients will receive ultrasound-guided rhomboid intercostal block and ESP-Group where the patients will receive ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block prior to the operation. Primary outcome will be peri-operative pain scores and secondary outcomes will be peri-operative opioid consumption and peri-operative hemodynamic effect of these blocks.
In the planned study, it was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the beeswax-containing barrier and breast milk used in the first ten days of breastfeeding to prevent the formation of nipple cracks. It's a prospective, randomized study based on 90 primipara lactating women. Participants were assigned randomly 3 groups (beeswax-containing barrier, breast milk, and no treatment-control).
The high risk of infants are defined as having a negative environmental and biological factor history, where these factors can lead to neuromotor development problems. It is a heterogeneous group of premature babies born under the age of thirty-seven weeks, with a low birth weight term or infants with developmental retardation due to various reasons. Risk factors in preterm infants include perinatal asphyxia, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), periventricular leukomalacia (PVL), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), broncho pulmonary dysplasia (BPD), hyperbilirubinemia, infection. alcohol syndrome, muscle tone disorders, low birth weight, hydrocephalus and microcephaly. These babies, especially preterm infants with low birth weight, may encounter a neurological sequence such as Cerebral Palsy (CP), epilepsy, hearing and vision loss, mental retardation, language-speech, behavioral problems and learning difficulties. CP is the most common disease of childhood, with the possibility of occurrence in 2-3 / 1000 live births.Today, the effectiveness of various methods has been proven to make early diagnosis of CP. One of these methods is the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Evaluation (HINE).
The aim of this study is to investigate the adaptation and validity of the Quality of Life Questionnaire of the European Foundation for Osteoporosis-31 in patients with osteoporosis. Thus, to present a scale that will help us analyze the psychometric properties of patients with osteoporosis to the use of the Turkish people .
The aim of this research is to evaluate thiol‑disulfide balance in cervix cancer patients
This study was planned to adapt the Vanderbilt Multidimensional Pain Coping Inventory into Turkish, to investigate its cultural adaptation, validity and reliability. The study was completed with 352 volunteers who fulfilled the criteria to be included in the Rheumatology Clinic of Istanbul Haydarpaşa Numune Training and Research Hospital. Data collection tools used in the study; Demographic Data Form, Mcgill and Melzack Pain Questionnaire, Short Form-36 (SF-36), Vanderbilt Multidimensional Pain Coping Inventory (VMPCI), Pain Coping Inventory (PCI), Pain Coping Scale were used.
Myofascial pain dysfunction syndrome (MPDS) is the most common reason for pain and limited function of the masticatory system. The low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and occlusal splint therapy (OST) are therapeutic options for MPDS. This study aims to evaluate the effect of LLLT and OST on pain relief and mandibular movement improvement in patients with myofascial pain.
This study aimed to detect tongue swelling induced by the pressure exerted by tongue depressor; swelling detection was made through tongue surface area measurement using ultrasonography (USG) in pediatric patients who underwent adenoidectomy surgeries.
Ultrasound guidance has become a standard for central venous catheterization. The aim of this study is to compare jugular venous catheterization by using lateral oblique approach to brachiocephalic catheterization by using Y-shape imaging. The trial is planned as prospective randomized and single-blind study. Eighty patients are planned to include in this study. Patients will be assigned to two groups: Oblique visualization Group (central catheter will be placed to the jugular vein by using ultrasound-guided in-plane syringe-free technique) and Y-shape visualization Group (central catheter will be placed to the brachiocephalic vein by using ultrasound-guided in-plane syringe-free technique). Two groups will be compared in terms of number of puncture attempts, procedural time, time of preprocedural ultrasound scanning, overall success rate, complications, the ease of the catheterization process and ultrasound visibility.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of tiragolumab plus atezolizumab and carboplatin and etoposide (CE) compared with placebo plus atezolizumab and CE in participants with chemotherapy-naive extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). Eligible participants will be stratified by Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (0 vs. 1), LDH (</= upper limit of normal [ULN] vs. > ULN), and presence or history of brain metastasis (yes vs. no) and randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive one of the following treatment regimens during induction phase: - Arm A: Tiragolumab plus atezolizumab plus CE - Arm B: Placebo plus atezolizumab plus CE Following the induction phase, participants will continue maintenance therapy with either atezolizumab plus tiragolumab (Arm A) or atezolizumab plus placebo (Arm B).
