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.
Ultrasound-guided Supra-inguinal Fascia Iliaca compartment Block (SIFCB) and Pericapsular Nerve Group Block (PENG) are increasingly being used for postoperative analgesia for hip surgery. The postoperative analgesic efficacy of SIFCB added to PENG block in elderly hip fracture patients will be evaluated. Postoperative opioid consumption and quality of recovery will also be evaluated.
This study is conducted to examine the effect of climate change and global warming-based education given to nursing students on their environmental attitudes. The research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental. According to the posthoc power analysis, it was determined that the type one error amount was 0.05 with a medium effect size and the power of the study was 94% when 110 participants were taken. The data were included from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th grades of a nursing faculty in eastern Turkey. Assignments were made to experimental and control groups by randomization. Personal information form and environmental attitude scale were used to collect data.
This study was planned to investigate the effect of chewing gum in the preoperative period on patients' sore throat and anxiety levels.
This study aims to investigate the relationship between hand and finger lengths, hand width, and dexterity. The main question it aims to answer is: 1-Is there a relationship between anthropometric measurements of the hand and manual dexterity?
This clinical trial aims to look at the influence of wrist Mulligan mobilizations on hand reaction time in healthy people. The main question it aims to answer is: 1-Do hand mobilizations reduce reaction time?
Laparoscopic total hysterectomy is the most common gynaecological surgical procedure after caesarean section. In laparoscopic total hysterectomy, intraabdominal pressure increases, venous return decreases, hypercarbia and acidosis may occur due to pneumoperitoneum due to CO2 insufflation and upright trendelenburg position (TP). Cerebral blood flow, intracranial pressure (ICP) and intraocular pressure (IOP) increase. One study showed that TP and an intraabdominal pressure of mmHg significantly increased ICP. CO2 insufflation into the abdominal cavity causes upward displacement of the diaphragm, resulting in an increased risk of regurgitation, decreased lung volumes and compliance, atelectasis, increased airway resistance and ventilation-perfusion mismatch. At the same time, combined with the effects of general anaesthesia, a decrease in partial arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2) is expected in patients. The alveolar recirculation manoeuvre (ARM), is based on the technique of opening atelectatic lung fields by keeping the airway pressure high for a while. This manoeuvre can be performed with methods such as PEEP, CPAP, and pressure-controlled mechanical ventilation. High PEEP application may cause an increase in ICP and a decrease in cerebral perfusion pressure by increasing intrathoracic pressure and decreasing cerebral venous return. Therefore, intracranial pressure monitoring should be performed especially in patients with PEEP above 8-10 cmH2O. Intraventricular and intraparenchymal measurements, which are the gold standard methods for ICP monitoring, are invasive procedures with various risks. Noninvasive methods such as cranial CT, brain MRI, transcranial Doppler, and measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) can also be used for ICP measurement. Ultrasonography of the optic nerve sheath diameter is an increasingly common method because it is noninvasive and can be performed at the bedside. The optic nerve sheath is the continuation of the transverse subarachnoid space and the cerebral duramater. It is connected to the intracranial subarachnoid space with cerebrospinal fluid. Therefore, an increase in ICP increases the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD). Maissan et al. They think that ONSD reflects the changes in ICP simultaneously. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of ARM on intracranial pressure in patients undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy under general anaesthesia using optic nerve sheath diameter.
This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and the effect of 2 mg Baxdrostat vs. placebo, administered QD orally, on the reduction of SBP, measured by average 24-hour ABPM in 212 participants with rHTN (defined as seated SBP ≥ 140 mmHg at Screening and mean ambulatory SBP ≥ 130 mmHg at baseline, despite a stable regimen of ≥ 3 antihypertensive agents, one of which is a diuretic).
This study was assessed the impact of a web-based education program provided to mothers of infants with congenital heart diseases on their quality of life and self-efficacy levels. The study is a mixed-method approach with a qualitative and pre-test post-test design, utilizing randomized controlled quasiexperimental type. The research was conducted with mothers of infants diagnosed with congenital heart disease who sought care at the Pediatric Cardiology Outpatient Clinic of a university hospital and were followed up. There are two groups in the study. Web-based education was provided to mothers in the intervention group (n=30). No intervention was applied to the mothers in the control group (n=30) other than the outpatient clinic routine of the hospital.
The aim of this study was to compare fetal lung elastography (FAE) values between groups with and without Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) in preterm neonates and to evaluate the potential of FAE to predict the risk of developing RDS.
The main objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) treatment on pain and quality of life in mastalgia, which treatment has not yet reached a consensus.
