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 research investigates the effectiveness of a care package used in the care of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery in preventing postoperative delirium. CABG surgery is a common procedure used to increase blood flow to the heart and is typically applied in patients with severe cardiac diseases. However, this procedure can increase the risk of postoperative delirium, especially among elderly and critically ill patients. In this study, the goal is to reduce this risk by implementing a care package. The care package includes optimal pain management, sleep regulation, mobilization, ensuring patient orientation, and appropriate medication management. The results of the research will be used to determine whether the use of this care package is effective in reducing the risk of delirium after CABG surgery. This could potentially improve patient outcomes and allow for more efficient use of hospital resources.
There are conflicting results in the literature explaining the relationship between surgical site infection (SSI) and inadvertent perioperative hypothermia (IPH). Although it is thought that the risk of IPH is lower in laparoscopic surgery types due to the short duration of the surgical procedure, these conflicting results raise doubts as to whether there is a relationship between IPH and SSI in laparoscopic surgery patients. A randomized controlled study will be planned in the future to examine the effect of IPH on SSI in patients who will undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomies. The study will be conducted in the general surgery clinic and operating room of a university hospital. It will be completed with a total of 100 patients, 50 of whom will be in the case group, and 50 will be in the control group.
Feeding the infant with breast milk in neonatal intensive care units is essential. However, breastfeeding can be adversely affected in this complex environment, especially for immigrant mothers. In order to ensure the success of breastfeeding in the neonatal intensive care unit, education and support of the mother are required. While doing this, structured and planned education programs should be implemented taking into account the individual characteristics of the mother (culture, age, etc.).This study aimed to evaluate the effect of education given to immigrant mothers on breastfeeding success of mothers. The study was a randomized controlled, single-blind clinical trial.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between Temporomandibular Disorders (TMD) and Sacroiliac Joint Disfunction (SIJD) and to determine the immediate effect of single-session orofacial manual therapy on SIJD. Patients will be treated for 1 session. The evaluation was planned to be done twice, at the beginning and end of the session.
Coronary angiography is a reliable and valid method used in the diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Coronary angiography is defined as the process of obtaining cineangiographic images by administering radio-opaque material to the coronary vessels via arterial route. Coronary angiography is frequently performed from brachial, radial and femoral arteries. The aim of coronary angiography is to determine the presence, localisation and extent of cardiovascular lesions. Invasive interventions cause anxiety and pain in the patient, increase the level of anxiety and cause a number of negative effects such as increased use of sedative drugs, development of post-procedure complications, prolongation of the recovery process and hospitalisation time. It is stated that there is a positive relationship between reducing the anxiety of the patients and meeting the needs of the patients.
The goal of this observational study is to define the role of apical shaping and irrigation activation on root canal cleanliness. The main questions it aims to answer are: - does the effectiveness of irrigation activation depends on apical shaping? - can a similar success be achieved by increasing apical shaping without irrigation activation Participants will [describe the main tasks participants will be asked to do, treatments they'll be given and use bullets if it is more than 2 items].
Purpose: The aim of this project is to examine the effects of guided imagery and music performance during labor on labor pain, anxiety and birth experience. Methods: The research to be carried out within the scope of the project is randomized controlled and has an experimental research design. The population of the research consists of primiparous pregnant women who applied to the Istanbul Provincial Health Directorate, Istanbul Training and Research Hospital, Suleymaniye Obstetrics and Pediatrics Additional Service Building, Birth Unit. Eligible participants in the study sample will be randomly selected at a 1:1:1 ratio. In the calculation of the sample size, using the G*Power (3.1.9.2) program, 5% first type error, 0.30 standardized effect size, distribution ratio to 1 groups, 90% power considering data loss, and the minimum sample size required for 3 groups was 144 people in total. calculated as 48 cases for each group. The group of pregnant women who meet the inclusion criteria will be determined by using the "Randomizer.org" program. In this direction, 48 people (guided imagery) should be included in experiment 1, 48 people in experiment 2 (musical concert) and 48 people in control group. "Informed Consent Form" and "Voluntary Consent Form" will be presented to the pregnant women included in the study, by giving information about the study."Personal Information Form", "Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)", "State Trait Anxiety Scale (STAI Form TX-1)" and "Birth Expectations and Experiences Scale-Part 1 (DBSS-1)" will be applied to pregnant women assigned to the Guided Imagery Group. . In the active phase of labor, when the cervical opening is measured as 4-5 cm, 6-7 cm and 8-10 cm, a 15-minute guided imagery concert (of the scenario determined for the birth process) prepared by the researchers within the scope of the literature, with the service of a ney artist and a psychological counselor, is played by bluetooth from an MP3 player. The pregnant woman will be listened to by the researcher through headphones. "VAS" will be applied after each attempt. 1 hour after the birth of the baby and placenta, data will be collected by applying "VAS", "STAI Form TX-1" and "Birth Expectations and Experiences Scale-Part 2 (DBSS-2)". "Personal Information Form", "VAS", "STAI Form TX-1" and "DBSS-1" will be applied to pregnant women assigned to the music concert group. In the active phase of labor, when the cervical opening is measured as 4-5 cm, 6-7 cm and 8-10 cm, the 15-minute ney concert in the acemasiran tune (instrumental music), which was prepared by the researchers with the service of the ney artist within the scope of the literature (the scenario determined for the birth process), was played from the MP3 player via bluetooth headphones. The pregnant woman will be listened to by the researcher. "VAS" will be applied after each attempt. Data will be collected by applying "VAS", "STAI Form TX-1" and "DBSS-2" 1 hour after the birth of the baby and placenta.
The assessment of oral health, jaw health and related problems in bipolar patients is important to provide a holistic approach to patients in terms of physical, mental and psychosocial aspects and to improve quality of life. In this study, oral health, temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) and oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) were investigated in patients with Bipolar Disorder (BD).
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between temporomandibular joint problems, head posture, tongue strength, and endurance with core stabilization.
This is a Phase III, multicentre, randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and effect of 1 or 2 mg baxdrostat versus placebo, administered once daily (QD) orally, on the reduction of systolic blood pressure in approximately 720 participants aged ≥ 18 years with hypertension, despite a stable regimen of 2 antihypertensive agents at baseline, one of which is a diuretic (uncontrolled hypertension); or ≥ 3 antihypertensive agents at baseline, one of which is a diuretic (treatment-resistant hypertension).
