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 main objective of this study is to evaluate whether blood NGAL measurement provides superiority over sCr and BUN tests in early diagnosis for assessing renal function in patients undergoing robotic urological surgery.
Kolcaba's comfort theory is a theory used by nurses to increase the comfort of patients. There are limited studies determining that nursing care provided according to this theory contributes to the increase in patients' comfort levels in various patient groups. This study will be carried out in the hemodialysis center of a public hospital located in the city center of Bingöl. Patients in the intervention group receiving hemodialysis treatment will be given nursing care by the researcher for 12 sessions during the sessions in which the patient receives hemodialysis treatment. In order to provide nursing care, nursing diagnoses suitable for the patient group will be determined in advance and the care the patient needs will be given according to these diagnoses.. If necessary, the researcher will add additional diagnoses to the preliminary diagnosis form and provide care. In this research, the individual nursing care needs of the researcher patient will be determined. Individualized caregiving is unique to this study. Individually provided care is expected to increase patient comfort and satisfaction. Increased comfort will help the patient cope more easily with the disease and hemodialysis treatment symptoms. In addition, the results of individual care provided can guide nurses in their care behaviors. By adding this research to the literature, the groundwork will be laid for studies that will provide individual care to patients. It is expected that the results of this research will guide the planning of the research and the provision of individualized care in all patient groups, especially patients receiving hemodialysis treatment.
The aim of this study is to compare the traditional dorsal double injection digital block with the palmar single injection technique in the suturing of acute traumatic hand finger lacerations in terms of injection pain score (NRS), anesthesia onset time, and success of anesthesia. It is understood that single injection digital block and double injection digital block techniques do not have significant advantages over each other in terms of pain levels and procedure times. However, the need for rescue anesthesia was evaluated to be lower in the single injection digital block technique. This difference is especially due to measurements in the volar region incisions. According to the results of this study, we think that choosing the single injection digital block technique for volar region incisions is a more rational approach, especially in terms of the data of the need for rescue anesthesia.
Background: Delirium is a neurocognitive illness that has lately been connected to sleep difficulties. It is a stressful condition. is still not fully understood. A poor sleep burden and its progress were investigated in this study to determine their correlations with the risk of delirium following surgical procedures. Methods: Between August 1st and December 5th, 2023, 124 patients undergoing non-cardiac general anesthesia (mean age 63.68 ± 8.81 years [SD]; range 46-82 years) reported on their sleep characteristics. PSQI, 1- sleep duration, 2- sleep disturbance, 3- sleep latency, 4- daytime dysfunction resulting from sleepiness, 5- sleep efficiency, 6- overall sleep quality, and 7- usage of sleep medications were among these sleep characteristics. Seven component scores, ranging from 0 (no difficulty) to 3 (extreme difficulty), are obtained while assessing the PSQI. The global score ranges from 0 to 21 and is calculated by adding the component scores. Higher scores indicate poorer sleep quality. A three-day median follow-up time was used to analyze hospitalization records to gather data on new-onset delirium (n = 26). Approximately 124 people on average, with a mean.
To compare desaturation and respiratory complications by applying oxygen therapy with double nasal cannula to patients who are planned to undergo gastrointestinal endoscopy.
The conventional saw compared with the piezo surgery in BSSO to evaluate cutting time, surgery duration, amount of bleeding. The purpose of this study was to answers following clinical questions: Is ultrasonic bonescalpel effective osteotomy like conventional bur in BSSO? and 2) Does it reduce operative parameter like bleeding, duration, lingual split pattern? 3) Does it reduce postoperative morbidity after BSSO.
Distal radius fractures are the most common fractures when looking at upper extremity fractures. The incidence of distal radius fractures is increasing day by day, and when looking at the databases of various countries, its annual prevalence reaches 70,000 in the UK and 640,000 in the USA. Most of these fractures are related to osteoporosis and require appropriate treatment. If not, it causes loss of work force, permanent disability, and limitation in daily activities. Fluidotherapy has also proven to be effective in reducing hand edema in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome and stroke, examining its effect on nerve conduction velocities, and warming hypothermic patients. Compared to these treatment methods, fluid therapy reduces both joint capsule and muscle temperature by 9°C and 5.7°C, respectively. has been reported to increase.
Conventional balance exercises are an effective rehabilitation method applied in routine rehabilitation programs for Parkinson's patients. With technological developments, balance exercises
One of the main challenges facing the therapist in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis is to motivate the patient throughout conventional therapy. As noted in a recent review, individuals are more interested in leisure activities rather than performing repetitive tasks during therapy. Virtual reality (VR) is a three-dimensional computer-aided programme built with a system that creates virtual reality movements and generates a high amount of visual and sensory feedback during exercise. As a result, virtual reality (VR) has been used in many medical indications and has been shown to promote adherence to treatment by increasing patient motivation.
Suprascapular nerve block is an injection method that has been shown to be effective in shoulder rehabilitation in diseases such as adhesive capsulitis and stroke .. Applying the block under USG guidance instead of blinding increases the effectiveness and reduces complications.
