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.
The aim of our study is to examine the factors affecting the physical activity of individuals with stroke and to draw attention to the importance of these factors in interventions to improve the physical activity level of individuals with stroke.
In this study, it was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of music therapy, which is a non-pharmacological method, in addition to pharmacological treatment in patients with PONV after bariatric surgery, whose application frequency is increasing in the treatment of obesity, and to determine its effect on patient satisfaction. The findings of this study are considered to be effective in preventing nausea and vomiting, providing patient comfort, increasing evidence-based nursing knowledge and increasing the quality of care.
The Lloyd Davies position is a position used in laparoscopic hysterectomies where the head is lowered 45 degrees and the legs are bent from the knee area.It is a version of the Trendelenburg position. Both this position and for laparoscopic surgery carbon dioxide (CO2) gas given into the abdomen, causes problems for the patient. Increased abdominal and thoracic pressure impairs venous return and increases intracranial pressure. Optic nerve sheath diameter can be measured by placing an ultrasound probe over the eye. It is possible to follow up the increase in intracranial pressure with this diameter measurement. In this study, it was planned to measure the optic nerve sheath diameter by ultrasound in patients who will undergo laparoscopic hysterectomy. It is aimed to observe the changes in the increase in intracranial pressure as the time lengthens with the measurements to be made at certain intervals during the operation. Secondary aim is to determine whether there is a cut-off value where the intracranial pressure starts to increase.
The aim of the study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the KForce Sens® for the evaluation of wrist joint position sense in individuals with CTS. Wrist joint position sense was assessed with KForce Sens® and Baseline® electrogoniometer. The validity and reliability of the KForce Sens® for wrist position sense evaluation were investigated by comparing the two data sets.
It has been reported that corrected carotid flow time (FTc) may indicate the responsiveness of spontaneously breathing patients to fluid therapy. The primary objective of the study is to determine the effect of fluid preload applied to patients with preanesthetic FTc values below the cut-off value on the incidence of hypotension in cesarean section (C/S) surgery. Pregnant women who underwent cesarean section under spinal anesthesia were included in this prospective study. In the preoperative care unit, patients were assigned to two groups according to their baseline FTc values. Patients with baseline FTc < 327 ms were assigned to the first group, and Ringer Lactate (RL) preload fluid administration to these patients was continued until FTc > 327 ms. On the other hand, patients with baseline FTc > 327 ms were assigned to the second group, and preload fluid was not administered to these patients. Intraoperative hemodynamic data were recorded for each patient.
The aim of this study is to investigate the cost, functional benefits, and impact on the quality of life of using bone-anchored hearing devices in chronic otitis media patients
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.
This study was conducted as a randomized controlled study to determine the effect of digital stories prepared with a digital audio file (podcast) on learning in midwifery education. The study was carried out with Kocaeli University Midwifery 3rd grade students. Between October 3 and October 7, 2022, which is the beginning of Kocaeli University 2022-2023 academic year academic calendar, a meeting was held with students about working outside the classroom. The study was completed with 65 students as experimental (n=33) and control group (n=32). Data were collected with participant information form, knowledge test, digital stories evaluation questionnaire prepared with digital audio file (podcast). These stories, which consist of three parts about preparation for natural birth, ideal birth environment and natural birth, were recorded in an appropriate environment and quality, accompanied by a trainer who is an expert in digital audio files (podcast) designs. The knowledge test was applied as a pre-test in the first encounter with the students who accepted the study. Digital stories were sent to the students in the experimental group in the form of e-mails. At the end of the unit, a post-test was administered to both groups. Again, 21 days later, the study was completed by conducting a retention test (knowledge test) and a digital story evaluation questionnaire prepared with a digital audio file (podcast) for both groups. After the study, digital stories prepared with a digital audio file (podcast) were sent to all students in the control group who completed the study, allowing the students to reinforce the subject. While evaluating the findings in the study, Number Cruncher Statistical System 2020 Statistical Software (NCSS LLC, Kaysville, Utah, USA) program was used for statistical analysis. While evaluating the research data, quantitative variables were shown with mean, standard deviation, median, min and max values, and qualitative variables were shown with descriptive statistical methods such as frequency and percentage. Shapiro Wilks test and Box Plot plots were used to evaluate the suitability of the data for normal distribution. Student's t-test, Mann Whitney-U test, Kruskal Wallis test, Dunn test, Spearman correlation analysis, linear regression, chi-square test, Fisher's Exact test, Isher's Exact test and Fisher Freeman Halton and F test were used. The results were evaluated at 95% confidence interval and p<0.05 significance level.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of oral motor intervention (PIOMI) applied to preterm babies along with the smell and taste of breast milk on feeding parameters and the transition time to oral feeding. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does affect nutritional parameters PIOMI with the smell of breast milk? - Does affect nutritional parameters PIOMI with breast milk taste? Participants will consist of breast milk-scented PIOMI, breast milk-tasting PIOMI and control groups. Researchers will compare breast milk-scented PIOMI, breast milk-tasting PIOMI and control groups to see if early feeding skills.
This research was planned to determine the effect of cognitive behavioral approach-based psychoeducation on the cognitive emotion regulation strategies and negative emotional symptom levels of emerging adults who experienced an earthquake. In this research, pre-test, post-test and follow-up test will be performed and there will be 1 experimental and 1 control group created by randomization.After the pre-test applied to the experimental and control groups, a 9-session cognitive behavioral approach-based psychoeducation program will be applied to the experimental group.Following this application, post-test and one-month follow-up tests will be administered to both groups and the effectiveness of the psychoeducation program will be compared.
