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.
In this study, it was aimed to examine the effects of kinesio tape applied to the forearm extensor muscles on the functional level of patients undergoing lower extremity surgery with walker ambulation. Patients who were evaluated before being included in the post-surgical rehabilitation program (before kinesio tape application) and before discharge will be included in the study group. For the control group data, patients who underwent lower extremity surgery at the same institution for similar periods, but were included in the standard rehabilitation program, but did not apply kinesio tape, will be included. Standard rehabilitation practice includes in-bed transfer training, gait training, practice of daily living activities, and therapeutic exercise practices . Before the standard rehabilitation program, kinesio taping was applied to both upper extremities in the form of a "Y" tape from the medial epicondyle to the wrist flexors, with 15-20% tension, to the patients hospitalized in the orthopedic service after lower extremity surgery. The tape should remain on the patient's arm throughout the hospital stay
The aim of this observational study is to compare the outcomes of three different procedures performed for the management of malignant Gastric Outlet Obstruction due to Pancreatic Cancer. Patients who undergo: - Surgical gastroenterostomy - Endoscopic placement of a self-expanding metallic stent - EUS-guided gastroenterostomy in accordance with standard clinical practice, will be enrolled to evaluate potential differences between the procedures in terms of clinical success, eating experience, chemotherapy tolerance, and nutritional status during follow-up. Participants will be asked to complete a quality of life questionnaire at baseline and during follow-up; however, no additional procedures will be conducted as a result of participation in the study.
The aim of this study was to evaluate watching video about procedure on reduce anxiety and fear in children before the endoscopy.
Aim: The aim of this study is to examine the effect of motivational interviewing-based training program on reducing cardiovascular disease risk factors in adults. Methods: In the first stage, individuals' CVD risk levels were determined. In the second stage, a 6-session motivational interview-based training program was applied to the intervention group with a medium CVD risk level (HearthSCORE score between 2 and 5 points). Brochures were distributed to the control group.
Cerebral Palsy is an umbrella definition that refers to a disorder that occurs after a problem affecting a person's brain functions and has symptoms such as sensory, motor and mental deficits. Cerebral Palsy can cause serious functional losses in individuals. Various rehabilitation approaches have been developed and used to eliminate these functional losses. One of these approaches is a therapy technique called Task-oriented therapy, which focuses on completing tasks that mostly involve functional activities that the participating individuals do actively and repeatedly. There are various ways to perform task-oriented therapy. These can be achieved by motivating the individual to perform various tasks (cutting with scissors, buttoning, putting on and taking off legos, etc.) in an active, intense and repetitive manner, as well as through games played on devices such as tablet computers that have emerged with the developing technology. Thanks to their Android and touch features, such devices can motivate people to use their upper extremities functionally. Thanks to such applications, rehabilitation practices can be made more fun and effective results can be obtained. In the literature, it was seen that video game-based rehabilitation practices were used in individuals with cerebral palsy, but their effects on balance were mostly evaluated. Its effect on upper extremity functional capacity was mostly limited to feasibility studies. For these reasons, there is no data in the literature on this subject with quality results. The main purpose of this study is to determine whether upper extremity functional capacity can be improved by using the Tablet PC-based Fruit ninja game, which is easily accessible today, in the rehabilitation of individuals with cerebral palsy, using objective measurement tools.
In this study, researchers developed a mattress made of 3D spacer fabric to relieve pressure during cardiovascular surgery. Following the development process, an initial assessment of the mattress's effectiveness was carried out on healthy volunteers. The same people lay first on the developed product and then on the surgical mattress in the supine position. In both cases, the pressure between the person and the mattress was measured using a force-sensitive resistor (using Interlink's FRS-406 series sensors). Thirty patients were included in the initial evaluation. A randomised controlled trial was then carried out with patients undergoing surgery (patients were divided into two groups; (a) mattress developed by the researchers and (b) standard operating theatre mattress). Sixty patients were divided into two groups using block randomisation. In the block randomisation, patients below or above body mass index 27 were equally distributed between the groups. Pressure levels were measured continuously during surgery using the same sensors.
The purpose of this prospective, cross-sectional study was to evaluate the selective activation of the infraspinatus during external rotation exercises in participants with rounded shoulder postures and compare the different exercise positions. The fifteen (7 males and 8 females) participants with rounded shoulder posture were recruited for this study. The EMG activations of the middle trapezius, posterior deltoid and infraspinatus muscles in the dominant limb were recorded during exercises in standing external rotation (SER), side-lying position (SDER), scapular plane (SPER) and muscle architecture-based (MABER) positions.
