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 this study is to determine posture and posture related factors in patients with restrictive and obstructive lung disease.
This study will determine the efficacy of hippotherapy (horseback-riding) program, as an adjuvant to standard psychiatric treatment, on the outcomes of patients with schizophrenia. A randomized controlled trial is conducted in a Community Mental Health Center. All participants are randomized into two groups (experimental and control groups) using blocked randomization. All participants received the standard psychiatric treatment, while the experimental group is additionally provided with a 16-session hippotherapy program for 8 weeks. All participants will be evaluated using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Quality of Life Scale, UCLA Loneliness Scale at both baseline and after the intervention.
It is a prospective randomized controlled trial. In this project, it is aimed to examine the effect of telerehabilitation-based instrumental and noninstrumental respiratory exercise program on lung capacities. For this reason; - Contributing to the literature by comparing the effect of breathing exercises with and without instruments on lung capacities, - It is aimed to be a resource for the effective use of respiratory exercise, which has a high effect on lung capacities, in treatment. In addition, with the data obtained, it is aimed to decide and apply the exercise that is more effective in the treatment of respiratory diseases quickly. Socio-demographic data will be questioned by using the Demographic Data Form; participants, age, gender, height, weight, marital status, smoking and alcohol use, presence of disease, whether they are included in a different exercise program, dyspnea, severe nausea and vomiting. The cases will be randomized into two groups: non-instrumented breathing exercises group and instrumented breathing exercises group. The physical activity status of the individuals participating in the study will be questioned using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) at the beginning and end of the study. Pulmonary Function Test (PFT) will be used to measure the lung capacity of the participants. Instrumented breathing exercises will be performed for 8 weeks, 2 days a week with the telerehabilitation program, 3 days a week as a home program, 5 days a week in total, starting with 1 set of 15 repetitions and the program will progress with progression. Diaphragmatic breathing and thoracic extension exercises will be applied as non-instrumented breathing exercises. For 8 weeks, 2 days a week with telerehabilitation method, 3 days a week as a home program, 5 days a week in total, 1 set of 10 repetitions for each exercise and the program will progress with progression. At the end of 8 weeks, all evaluations of the participants in both groups will be repeated.
Patients will be divided into 2 groups according to the random numbers table, and both groups will receive a conventional physical therapy and rehabilitation program and nutritional support. Afterwards, edema-reducing kinesiotaping will be applied to one group. The applied kinesio tape will remain on the patient for 5 days and will be taped again after 2 days without tape. In this way, taping will be done 3 times in total, once a week for 3 weeks. During this period, patients will continue their routine physical therapy program and measurements will be taken by the same researcher in the 1st week of treatment and 3 weeks later.
The study will investigate the effects of pregnancy yoga on perceived stress, quality of sexual life and sleep level. A total of 100 pregnant women are planned to be included in the study. Data will be collected with the "Personal Information Form", "Perceived Stress Scale" and "Sexual Quality of Life Questionnaire-Female". Yoga will be applied to the experimental group for a total of 12 sessions, two sessions per week (90 minutes) for six weeks. The research predicts that yoga will reduce the stress perceived by pregnant women, increase the quality of sexual life and positively affect sleep patterns.
The aim of this study is to investigate body awareness and functional movement in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) compared to healthy controls.
Neural mobilizations (NM) are defined as interventions that aim to directly or indirectly affect neural structures or surrounding tissue through manual techniques or exercise. Neural mobilizations have been studied in both patients and healthy populations. In the study, individuals in the amateur football team will be divided into three groups and will be given pre-training warm-up periods, including neural mobilization, dynamic and static stretching.After the warm-up period, its effect on flexibility and performance will be examined and compared.
The aim of this study was to investigate the additional effects of aerobic exercise to abdominal massage in patients with functional constipation. There are several studies investigating the effects of massage and aerobic exercise separately in functional constipation. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no studies combining abdominal massage and aerobic exercise to demonstrate additional effects. By combining these two approaches, we believe that a higher and broader effect (local and systemic) and perhaps a cure for constipation (reaching the ideal defecation frequency or asymptomatic status) can be achieved. Therefore, this study will include individuals between the ages of 18-65 who have a diagnosis of functional constipation and who agree to participate in the study. This study is designed as a randomized controlled trial.
This study is designed to examine the effect of telerehabilitation application on the musculoskeletal system of drivers.The study will include 40 voluntary participants who work as drivers on inter-district routes in Sakarya. The participants' sociodemographic information, musculoskeletal problems, and postures will be assessed. Participants will be divided into two groups: one group will receive tele-rehabilitation with posture and stabilization exercises, while the other group will serve as the control group. The exercises will be implemented for 10 weeks, followed by an 8-week tapering period, after which the groups will be crossed over. A re-evaluation will be conducted after 10 weeks, with follow-up assessments scheduled for 3 months later.
This study was planned to determine the effect of Emotional Freedom Technique on perceived pain level, situational anxiety, salivary cortisol and satisfaction level during mammography screening.
