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.
To determine the Effect of Focusing on the Virgin Mary Flower during the Birth Process on Labor Pain, Labor Duration and Perceived Fatigue in Birth. Method: The study will be completed in a randomized controlled manner with a total of 126 primiparous pregnant women, 63 in the experimental group and 63 in the control group. Pregnant women in the experimental group will focus on the Virgin Mary flower in the water-filled jar and imagine that their uterus and birth path are opening like the branches of the Virgin Mary flower that blooms as labor pains come. There will be no intervention in the control group other than routine midwifery care. Research data will be collected with the Pregnant Introduction and Birth Process Follow-up Form, Visual Analog Scale, and Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue.
This randomized controlled study will be conducted to examine the effects of Yoga on Sleep, Fatigue and Physical Activity in Individuals Diagnosed with Relapsing-Remitting Multiple Sclerosis.
Hallux valgus (HV) is a tri-planar, painful and common foot deformity characterized by the medial orientation of the first metatarsal, lateral deviation and pronation of the big toe at the level of the first metatarsophalangeal joint. Due to the increase in the severity of hallux valgus deformity, dissatisfaction with the appearance of the foot, difficulty choosing shoes due to bunions and pain, difficulty walking and accordingly, restriction in daily activities, the functional levels and health-related quality of life of individuals are negatively affected. The aim of this study is to compare the effect of using a toe separator orthosis and dynamic orthosis for 1 month on hallux valgus angle and plantar pressure in individuals with hallux valgus.
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) affects more than one body system, mainly respiratory and digestive.The quality of life of individuals with CF is adversely affected by the increasing treatment burden in addition to multi-system involvement. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) describes human functioning and states of disability and provides a framework for organizing this information. ICF Core Sets are created by selecting the appropriate categories for the current disease from the ICF classification. ICF Core Sets are smaller than ICF, allowing practical evaluation based on ICF in clinical use. It evaluates the current situation of the patient quickly and practically, and improves interdisciplinary cooperation. Our study, it was aimed to develop a core set that quickly and practically evaluates the current state of the patient with CF in Turkey, based on ICF, and increases coordination within the interdisciplinary team. In our study, the established, very comprehensive, scientific and evidence-based guide that should be followed while creating the ICF core set will be followed. The guide consists of 4 stages: The first stage is the literature review which allows us to see the disease from the perspective of the researcher by scanning the studies on CF in the last 10 years. The second stage is the patient interview, which includes interviewing these individuals, and allows us to see the disease from the perspective of individuals diagnosed with CF. The third phase is the expert questionnaire, which we will look at from the perspective of health professionals who are knowledgeable about treating individuals with CF. The fourth stage is the consensus stage, where the final core set is decided, which includes team discussion. With the final core set developed as a result of these stages, a core set that will quickly and practically evaluate the current situation of the patient with CF in Turkey based on ICF and increase coordination within the interdisciplinary team will be ensured. Hypothesis(s) and purpose(s) on which this thesis proposal is based: H1: The ICF Core Set will be instrumental in understanding CF-specific health, disability, and function. H2: It will be a step in the development of a standard tool for the assessment of adults with CF. In our study, we propose to examine CF from the perspective of the researcher as a result of the literature review, from the perspective of the patient as a result of the qualitative research, from the perspective of the health professional as a result of the expert survey, to create a core set specific to these patients, and thus to see the different characteristics of individuals with CF in terms of function, activity, participation, and environmental factors.
This study is a multicenter, non-drug screening study. Enrollment period is 12 months. There are no IMP to be followed or used in the study. Patients who applied to Pediatric Metabolism, Pediatric Neurology and Developmental Pediatrics clinics with the symptoms or findings defined in the protocol as below for 12 months will be included in the study. Children between the ages of 2 and 6, without hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, head trauma and developmental brain anomalies, who are admitted to the Pediatric Metabolism, Pediatric Neurology and Developmental Pediatrics clinics with non-specific neurological symptoms such as idiopathic seizures of unknown etiology, speech disorders and motor dysfunctions, will constitute the target population of the study.
Purpose: To investigate the effect of upper extremity single and double task training using virtual reality on upper extremity functions, cognitive functions and dual task performance in stroke patients. Our aim is to determine the effectiveness of dual-task upper extremity training compared to single-task training.
This study aims to raise awareness among individuals about plastic and microplastica pollution, reduce plastic consumption, reduce the amount of plastic waste that grows cumulatively every year, and contribute to the development of a livable environment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the catheter related bladder discomfort in patients who will undergoing TUR-P operation. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is sacral ESPB effective on the pudendal nerve dermatome? - Is sacral ESPB as useful as pudendal block on CRBD? Participants will be divided into two groups and the first group will receive sacral espb after TUR-p operation and the second group will receive pudendal block. Investigators will be present for 24 hours - catheter related bladder discomfort - post-operative pain, - additional analgesic needs will be questioned and the difference between the two groups will be evaluated.
In the literature, studies about urinary symptoms after radical prostatectomy (RP) are generally focused on urinary incontinence (UI), and studies about sexual symptoms are focused on erectile dysfunction (ED). In the management of these symptoms, the effects of pharmacological agents (duloxetine/antimuscarinics and PDE5-I) and/or local approaches (pelvic floor muscle training-PFMT, vacuum erection devices) have been emphasized. In these studies, the results are contradictory and the level of evidence is low. The effects of aerobic and resistance exercise training on urinary, sexual and general health after RP have not been revealed from a holistic and multidisciplinary perspective. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the additional effects of aerobic and resistance exercise trainings to pelvic floor muscle training on urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction after radical prostatectomy in a randomized controlled design. The study will include volunteers aged 40 years and older (Mini Mental test score of 24 and above for individuals aged 65 years and older) with symptoms of UI and/or ED after RP. The study is designed as a randomized controlled trial. Individuals who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to 2 separate groups. Subjects in the research group will receive patient education, PFMT, and aerobic and resistance exercise trainings; subjects in the control group will receive only patient education and PFMT. The study period is 12 weeks. Individuals will be evaluated at 2 separate time periods, at the beginning of the study and at the end of the 12th week.
Stroke is the second most common cause of death and the third most important cause of disability worldwide, with an annual death rate of 5.5 million. Spasticity is a common condition in stroke patients and has a negative impact on daily living activities. BTX-A has been successfully used in the treatment of spasticity in patients with stroke. ESWT is a physical therapy method applying high intensity pressure waves. ESWT has been increasingly used in the management of spasticity as a safe and effective method, but the literature about ESWT in spasticity is heterogeneous and the treatment protocols are not very clear about the number of applications. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of rESWT treatment on ankle plantar flexors spasticity applied after BTX-A injection.
