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 study was planned to investigate the effectiveness of combined exercise training, that is, functional inspiratory muscle training, with breathing exercises to be applied with a portable, easy-to-use respiratory muscle strengthening device, on exercise capacity and peripheral muscle strength.
The most ideal method for providing breast milk is breastfeeding. However, it may be necessary to express breast milk for reasons such as the newborn being in an intensive care unit, the mother being hospitalized for any reason, or the mother starting to work. The content of breast milk varies according to gestational age and stages of lactation. However, it varies from day to day depending on the infant's needs. In recent literature, it is emphasized that the content of breast milk (carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, trace elements, etc.) varies according to circadian variation. In the literature review, no national or international study was found indicating whether the circadian properties of breast milk have an effect on the infant's growth parameters. This study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of the circadian properties of breast milk on the growth parameters of the infant and the absorption levels of nutrients by the baby in preterm newborns. no effect on the infant's growth parameters and nutrient absorption levels by the infant. Hypothesis 1 (H1): Feeding preterm newborns with breast milk according to the circadian rhythm has an effect on the weight of the infants. Hypothesis 2 (H2): Feeding preterm newborns with breast milk according to the circadian rhythm has an effect on the height of the infants. Hypothesis 3 (H3): Feeding preterm newborns with breast milk according to the circadian rhythm has an effect on the head circumference of the infants. Hypothesis 4 (H4): Feeding preterm newborns with breast milk according to the circadian rhythm has an effect on the absorption levels of vitamins and trace elements measured in the infants' breast milk.
This study examines the effect of discharge training given to patients with intertrochanteric femur fractures on the wound healing process and readiness for discharge. In the study, patients were provided with certain educational content before and after discharge. The effect of training on wound healing, readiness for discharge and post-discharge recovery process will be evaluated statistically.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of using virtual reality glasses as a distraction method on anxiety in men undergoing cystoscopy under local anaesthesia.
Before cesarean section surgery, researchers will demonstrate endorphin massage to the husbands of pregnant women, and they will be asked to apply the massage before the surgery. The stress levels and pain levels of women will be compared before and after the massage.
The study was planned as prospective and randomized. For the study, patients will be randomized into two groups as unilateral and bilateral suture sacro-hysteropexy operations.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of three different postsesarean analgesia techniques, including instillation of local anesthetic into the peritoneum with infiltration into all layers of the anterior abdominal wall, intrathecal morphine injection with local anesthetic, and quadrotus lumborum type 1 block, on the postoperative recovery of women using the ObsQoR-10 score..
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), a nonpharmacological method, on menopausal symptoms and depression in postmenopausal women. By determining the effectiveness of the Emotional Freedom Technique, the applicability of non-pharmacological method treatment in women with depression and menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal period will be proven. As a result of the study, if a positive effect on menopausal symptoms and depression is found in women with EFT, it can be recommended as an evidence-based alternative method in midwifery and nursing care.
There are a significant number of studies identifying risk factors for misplacement of LMAs. However, despite objective data indicating that tracheal intubation is performed inappropriately, such as air leaks, high air pressures, insufficient lung ventilation and single lung ventilation, which are easily identified after tracheal intubation, there are no objective data to define the misplacement of LMAs. The aim of the study was to describe unsuccessful LMA placement in pediatric patients with objective data.
Chemotherapy, the main treatment for childhood leukemia, has side effects on healthy cells. One of the most important of these side effects is the risk of infection due to neutropenia. In clinics, blood culture is the gold standard for the detection of possible infection risk (bacteremia, fungemia, etc.). During the diagnosis and treatment process in children with leukemia, a large number of peripheral or catheter blood cultures are performed. When the culture results are positive, it is accepted that the infection has grown. In some cases, a positive peripheral blood culture result may not be clinically significant. An agent belonging to the skin flora of the patient or the healthcare professional taking the field culture may also cause the blood culture result to be positive. This is called contamination or false positive blood culture. Contaminated cultures may cause prolonged hospitalization, additional medical interventions, unnecessary initiation of antibiotic treatment and related antibiotic resistance, toxicity due to additional drugs and an increase in hospital costs. The peripheral blood culture contamination rate, which is accepted as a quality indicator in some countries, should be below 3%. In this context, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of false positive peripheral blood cultures by examining the peripheral blood culture results obtained during routine follow-ups from children hospitalized with leukemia in the pediatric hematology clinic. The data will be collected retrospectively covering three years before March 2024 when the ethics committee approval was obtained. Since the relevant clinic cares for approximately 25 new children diagnosed with leukemia annually, the study sample is planned as 75 cases.
