The plantar fascia is a thick, multi-layered, non-elastic fibrous tissue band that extends along the plantar surface of the foot.The configuration of the plantar fascia is generally considered as a dense, longitudinally arranged fiber band divided into medial, central, and lateral components. The most significant functional role of the plantar fascia is to maintain the arch structure of the foot, providing a stable support base while standing and absorbing dynamic reaction forces during walking.Pes planus is a rather general term with many definitions. Staheli described pes planus as a "foot with a broad base of support," commonly known as flatfoot in layman's terms. In a study involving 80 female participants aged 65 and older, 90% of foot deformities observed while standing were identified as pes planus. Generally, pes planus is a condition characterized by excessive pronation of the rear part of the foot and a lowering of the medial longitudinal arch. During the push-off phase of walking, the pronation moment generated by the ground reaction force flattens the arch as the subtalar joint rotation combines. The shift in position in the talus bone causes the navicular bone to drop. The plantar calcaneonavicular ligament tightens, and the tibialis posterior muscle lengthens. Abnormalities in the bones of the foot, dysfunction of the tibialis posterior muscle, Achilles tendon shortening, or muscle weakness can contribute to pes planus. Individuals with pes planus may experience foot and leg pain with exercise, physical activity, and prolonged walking, which can limit their level of physical activity. Research has examined the relationship between pes planus and various physical parameters, and it has been found that one of these parameters, balance, is negatively affected by the presence of pes planus.
The present study aims to determine frequency of thromboembolic complications and the underlying causes of this complication of the patients who admitted to the intensive care unit diagnosed with COVID-19.
Objectives: This research was planned to examine the effect of cognitive behavioral therapy on the post-traumatic stress symptoms of nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic. Design: Single-blinded study with parallel groups. Setting: Faculty of Nursing. Participants: 60 first-year students studying at the Faculty of Nursing were randomly assigned to the intervention (n=30) and control (n=30) groups. Method: Data were collected using the Information Form prepared by the researcher and the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5. The intervention group was collected online three times, before the cognitive behavioral group therapy, at the end of the therapy and three months later. Group intervention program based on cognitive behavioral approach of ten sessions; face-to-face, the intervention group was divided into two separate groups and each group was completed in approximately one and a half months (May-June 2022), two days a week. Follow-up measurement was completed in September 2022. While group therapy was applied to the intervention group, no intervention was made to the control group.
The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of preoperative patient education given by three different methods on the level of perioperative anxiety in children aged 4-7 years. The research was carried out between 1 June - 31 November 2021 at Tekirdag Namık Kemal University Health Practice and Research Center, Department of Pediatric Surgery. A total of 66 patients, 22 patients in each group, who met the inclusion criteria and were included in the stratified randomization method, were included in the planned quasi-experimental study. Research data were obtained by using the "Patient Diagnosis Form" and the "Anxiety Scale in Preschool Children" administered before and after the surgery.
To determine whether body awareness and upper extremity functionality are affected in patients with or without lymphedema development after breast cancer surgery in comparison with individuals without a history of cancer.
Feeding the infant with breast milk in neonatal intensive care units is essential. However, breastfeeding can be adversely affected in this complex environment, especially for immigrant mothers. In order to ensure the success of breastfeeding in the neonatal intensive care unit, education and support of the mother are required. While doing this, structured and planned education programs should be implemented taking into account the individual characteristics of the mother (culture, age, etc.).This study aimed to evaluate the effect of education given to immigrant mothers on breastfeeding success of mothers. The study was a randomized controlled, single-blind clinical trial.
Purpose: The aim of this project is to examine the effects of guided imagery and music performance during labor on labor pain, anxiety and birth experience. Methods: The research to be carried out within the scope of the project is randomized controlled and has an experimental research design. The population of the research consists of primiparous pregnant women who applied to the Istanbul Provincial Health Directorate, Istanbul Training and Research Hospital, Suleymaniye Obstetrics and Pediatrics Additional Service Building, Birth Unit. Eligible participants in the study sample will be randomly selected at a 1:1:1 ratio. In the calculation of the sample size, using the G*Power (3.1.9.2) program, 5% first type error, 0.30 standardized effect size, distribution ratio to 1 groups, 90% power considering data loss, and the minimum sample size required for 3 groups was 144 people in total. calculated as 48 cases for each group. The group of pregnant women who meet the inclusion criteria will be determined by using the "Randomizer.org" program. In this direction, 48 people (guided imagery) should be included in experiment 1, 48 people in experiment 2 (musical concert) and 48 people in control group. "Informed Consent Form" and "Voluntary Consent Form" will be presented to the pregnant women included in the study, by giving information about the study."Personal Information Form", "Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)", "State Trait Anxiety Scale (STAI Form TX-1)" and "Birth Expectations and Experiences Scale-Part 1 (DBSS-1)" will be applied to pregnant women assigned to the Guided Imagery Group. . In the active phase of labor, when the cervical opening is measured as 4-5 cm, 6-7 cm and 8-10 cm, a 15-minute guided imagery concert (of the scenario determined for the birth process) prepared by the researchers within the scope of the literature, with the service of a ney artist and a psychological counselor, is played by bluetooth from an MP3 player. The pregnant woman will be listened to by the researcher through headphones. "VAS" will be applied after each attempt. 1 hour after the birth of the baby and placenta, data will be collected by applying "VAS", "STAI Form TX-1" and "Birth Expectations and Experiences Scale-Part 2 (DBSS-2)". "Personal Information Form", "VAS", "STAI Form TX-1" and "DBSS-1" will be applied to pregnant women assigned to the music concert group. In the active phase of labor, when the cervical opening is measured as 4-5 cm, 6-7 cm and 8-10 cm, the 15-minute ney concert in the acemasiran tune (instrumental music), which was prepared by the researchers with the service of the ney artist within the scope of the literature (the scenario determined for the birth process), was played from the MP3 player via bluetooth headphones. The pregnant woman will be listened to by the researcher. "VAS" will be applied after each attempt. Data will be collected by applying "VAS", "STAI Form TX-1" and "DBSS-2" 1 hour after the birth of the baby and placenta.
