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.
Fibroids are the most commonly encountered tumors in the female reproductive system. In patients, fibroids most often lead to abnormal uterine bleeding and the resulting anemia. In some cases, they can cause infertility or habitual abortions. Another complaint caused by fibroids is pain due to pressure and effects on adjacent organs. Very large fibroids can lead to abdominal swelling. Therefore, if a patient becomes symptomatic due to fibroids, myomectomy or, if necessary, hysterectomy is required. Because fibroids have a significant blood supply, there is a high risk of intraoperative bleeding and related complications. Additionally, the most common complication in these patients after the operation is bleeding. In many of these patients, intraoperative or postoperative blood transfusions are performed. If bleeding cannot be intervened early in these patients, hemodynamic instability, shock, coagulopathy, and, in the final stage, death can occur due to hemorrhage. Therefore, both intraoperative and postoperative bleeding control is of vital importance in patients undergoing myomectomy.
To investigate the anxiolytic effects of binaural beat-embedded audio in patients undergoing sedation-free upper gastrointestinal endoscopy
Nursing education is composed of both theoretical and practical training that complement each other. The clinical practice environment for students is quite complex and practical applications are highly variable. Practical application areas do not offer effective and equal opportunities to meet the learning and application goals. There are also problems in theoretical education, and current teaching techniques cannot adequately support students' learning. In nursing education, it is recommended to use different teaching methods that strengthen students' skills. One of these methods is virtual reality simulation, which simulates real-life procedures. The investigators's aim in this project is to reveal the effect of the use of immersive virtual reality on the effectiveness of education in surgical nursing education through nursing care offered for a specific surgical procedure. With the laboratory setup, software tool(s), and the self-sufficient employees being able to use the software, via the capabilities gained through this project, it will be possible to carry out various types of virtual reality training activities by different departments of investigator's university without the need for out-sourcing. The investigators's advanced goal in this project is to transfer the nursing care specific to frequently applied surgical interventions to the immersive virtual reality environment.
Abstract Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of individualized nursing interventions based on the Roy Adaptation Model on the recovery of alcohol addicts. Method: This was an experimental study with pretest-posttest, follow-up, and a control group. It included 64 individuals who completed their detoxification process and met the inclusion criteria. The experimental group was provided with individualized care, and interventions were made in line with the Roy Adaptation Model. The personal behaviors that could be related to recurrence (physiological, self-concept, role function, and mutual commitment) and the stimuli that caused recurrence (focal and affecting) were assessed, objectives were determined, and nursing interventions were carried out in line with these objectives. The interventions planned for diagnosing ineffective coping were selected according to the patients' needs among the "support coping" interventions under the title of the behavioral area in the Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC). The data were collected using an introductory information form, the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS), the Turkish Version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument (WHOQOL-BREF-TR), and the Penn Alcohol Craving Scale (PACS).
The aim of our study is to investigate the relationship between intraoperative ETCO2 levels and postoperative nausea-vomiting and pain scores in patients undergoing robotic laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. The investigators will monitor patients' 24-hour postoperative pain, nausea-vomiting and the consumption of additional analgesic and antiemetic medications.
This study will be conducted to determine the effect of acceptance and commitment therapy-based psychoeducation on psychological flexibility and impulsivity levels in patients with bipolar disorder. This study was planned as a randomised controlled experimental study. The study will be conducted with 60 patients (Intervention: 30, Control: 30) in the euthymic stage diagnosed with bipolar disorder who applied to Adıyaman Besni State Hospital psychiatry outpatient clinic using randomisation method. "Introductory Information Form" about socio-demographic characteristics, "Psychological Flexibility Scale" and "Barratt Impulsivity Scale -11 Short Form" will be used for data collection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Based Psychoeducation will be applied to the patients in the intervention group in the form of group education (consisting of 5-7 people), one session per week for eight weeks; no intervention will be applied to the control group. Pre-tests will be applied to the patients in the intervention and control groups just before the training, post-test will be applied to the intervention group immediately after the training sessions are completed, and follow-up test will be applied one month after the post-test, i.e. in the 12th week. After the pre-test was applied to the control group, the post-test will be applied in the 8th week and the follow-up test will be applied in the 12th week without any intervention. Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance was used to compare the scale scores and Fisher Least Significant Difference test was used for multiple comparisons of Group*Time interaction. Permission was obtained from the University Ethics Committee, the relevant institution and the individuals participating in the study.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and anxiety on masseter muscle thickness by using ultrasonography.
Dr. Biolyse® is a device with artificial intelligence that works in sync with the immune system and can be integrated like an element of this system. It is designed to develop chemical immunity within the body against infections. It gives electrical signals to the body without causing any pain and suffering to the patient. The electric current it applies is of a type that is not used in homes, and it is the frequency feature of direct current. The aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Biolyse device. for minimizing the use of drugs in COVID-19 patients and treating drug-related organ damage during treatment We hope that by conducting this study, we will obtain sufficient data to obtain approval (CE certification) for routine use and marketing of this medical device in patients. Once this happens, we will be able to ensure that this device is accessible/usable for patients suffering from similar diseases, especially COVID-19, regardless of any studies.
Gastrointestinal dysfunction is a common complication after abdominal gynecologic oncology surgery. There are numerous studies in the literature addressing the management of bowel function in the postoperative period. Unfortunately, the strategies in the literature are not one hundred percent successful, and complete prevention of postoperative bowel dysfunction cannot be achieved. There is no study in the literature demonstrating that abdominal exercises given to patients undergoing surgery for gynecological malignancies in the preoperative period improve gastrointestinal function in the postoperative period. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of an exercise plan, including abdominal massage and rectal digital stimulation, performed before gynecologic oncology surgery on postoperative bowel functions.
The aim of this study was to examine the Turkish validity of the Pain Behavior Scale in a population with chronic non-specific low back pain and to examine both intra-rater and inter-rater reliability. In addition, since this test package includes a series of functional activities, it is aimed to assess pain behaviors during functional movement in this population and to verify the test-retest reliability of physical performance tests.
