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.
This prospective study is planned as a randomized controlled study with the purpose of determining the effect of kangaroo care and swaddling methods on pain levels and crying times by newborns during heel blood collection.
This research aims to investigate the effect of mindfulness-based stress reduction training given before mastectomy on postoperative early period pain and the fear of movement caused by pain. According to the World Health Organization, 18.1 million new cancer diagnoses are made each year, with breast cancer being the most common type among women, accounting for 24.2% of all cancers diagnosed. In Turkey, the incidence of breast cancer was determined as 22,345 in 2018. Breast cancer significantly affects women's quality and length of life. Surgical intervention is the most commonly chosen treatment method for cases of localized breast cancer. Pain and limited movement are among the most common problems encountered after surgery. Non-pharmacological methods have been shown to be effective in pain management, with the mindfulness-based stress reduction technique being one of these methods. This technique is described as an effective treatment for conditions such as pain, depression, and addiction, with high levels of mindfulness being associated with greater self-esteem, optimism, and empathy, whereas low levels of mindfulness are linked to depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and acute pain.
The aim of this study was to investigate the level of physical activity and its determinants in children with WPW.
Many drugs have anticholinergic activity. This means that it blocks the muscarinic binding of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. In this study, the anticholinergic burden of the patients in the perioperative period will be calculated with the Anticholinergic Cognitive Burden Scale (ACBS) and patients with a score of 1 or above will be included in the study. Anticholinergic load of drugs used in the intraoperative period; Its effect on postoperative hospital stay, morbidity and mortality following elective heart surgery will be investigated.
In this prospective, randomized controlled study, it was aimed to examine the effect of pregnant women participating in birth preparation training together with their partners on the parenting role, spouses' attitudes towards participation in birth, and birth self-efficacy. The study was shared via the web on social media (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Telegram) forum pages between 25.09.2023-25.03.2025, and n=158 pregnant women who met the inclusion criteria and volunteered to participate in the study (79= education without spouse participation, 79= spouse Participatory education) will be conducted randomly in two groups: case and control. Before starting the research, two groups will be randomly formed among pregnant women. As a randomization method, pregnant women who meet the sampling inclusion criteria determined in the research will be identified and listed. Individuals to be taken into two groups will be determined by randomization method from the random numbers table. (http://www.stattrek.com/statistics/randomnumber-generator.aspx).
Aim: In this prospective, randomized controlled study, it was aimed to examine the effects of early half-swaddle and kangaroo care practices in term babies on maternal sleep quality and postpartum depression. Design: The prospective, randomized controlled study
Abdominal surgery causes severe postoperative pain due to retraction of the abdominal wall and direct manipulation of visceral organs. It leads to delayed postoperative recovery, increased postoperative morbidity and mortality. Intrathecal morphine, epidural analgesia and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia are used in postoperative pain management of abdominal surgeries. Intrathecal morphine is frequently used in many centers because it provides effective pain control. However; morphine has undesirable effects such as urinary retention, postoperative nausea and vomiting, and respiratory depression. Modified thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach is a technique defined by the modification of the thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach, in which local anesthetics are delivered only to the underside of the perichondral surface. The primary implication of this study is to compare postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery with intrathecal morphine or modified thoracoabdominal nerves block through perichondrial approach.
Total knee prosthesis (TKP); It is a surgical treatment used in the management of functional limitations and severe pain occurring on the degenerated joint surface as a result of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, posttraumatic arthritis and other nonspecific arthritis. Nursing care is of great importance in the success of TKP surgery. Reducing pain, preventing complications, increasing self-care ability, and improving the quality of life by improving postoperative knee functions are the main goals of postoperative nursing care. In order to achieve these goals, patients and their relatives need to receive training on home care in the post-operative period before discharge. With the increasing use of mobile technologies in daily life and the increasing adoption of e-health, the opportunity for people to improve their self-management skills through e-health is increasing. Mobile Health (m-Health) provides convenience in many areas such as educating the public, warning about potential diseases and disease risks, and communicating with messages, notifications and video when necessary. It also affects the way nursing services are delivered and provides great benefits in the delivery of nursing services. For all these reasons, it was aimed to examine the effect of mobile application-supported care given to patients with total knee prosthesis on functional status and self-care ability.
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women. Reasons such as diagnosing breast cancer at an early stage increases the chances of treatment and survival, and the fact that the masses are largely noticed by the individual themselves, point to the importance of breast self-examination (BSE) . BSE skill is among the nursing skills. When the literature was examined, it was seen that the web-based education method was frequently used for cognitive skills during nursing education, but its use was limited for psychomotor skills training. It was determined that in BSE training, in addition to traditional education, methods such as concept maps and peer-supported education were used, but web-based education methods were not used. It is thought that the study will contribute to the literature in these aspects.
Cholecystectomy is the most common major abdominal surgical procedure in western countries. Patients may experience fear and anxiety before surgery. Stress ball, one of the distraction methods, is an effective method in providing cognitive focus. It is seen that the stress ball method is used to reduce patients' anxiety and pain. Squeezing the stress ball during the surgical procedure allows patients to have direct control over the object, increasing their sense of empowerment. In this way, it has a positive effect on anxiety and patient satisfaction without interfering with the surgical procedure. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative use of stress ball on patients' fear, stress and comfort in order to determine the effect of stress ball applied before cholecystectomy surgery on patients' surgical fear, stress and comfort. It is thought that the data obtained as a result of the research will provide evidence for the effect of the stress ball, which is a non-pharmacological method used before the procedure, on fear, stress and comfort.
