NCT ID: NCT05855473 Completed - Fatigue Clinical Trials

Auricular Acupuncture on Fatigue, Energy and Well-Being in Intensive Care Nurses

Start date: December 15, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Notably, no acupuncture intervention studies have aimed at reducing the fatigue level and increasing the energy of the nurses working in the ICU. For this reason, this study aims to investigate the effects of auricular acupuncture applied to nurses working in the ICU, who work at a critical point in patient care in our country, work with intense work tempo, experience excessive stress, tension, fatigue, and are open to psychosocial problems such as depression and burnout, on fatigue and energy levels. This study can significantly contribute to the literature on managing the physical and psychosocial issues associated with fatigue and that similar intervention programs can be expanded in working life. This study aimed to determine the effect of auricular acupuncture applied to intensive care nurses on fatigue, energy and well-being. This was a single-blind, randomized controlled clinical study. The study was conducted in three groups: semi-permanent needle acupuncture (intervention), seed acupuncture (intervention), and a control group.

NCT ID: NCT05855161 Completed - Parkinson Disease Clinical Trials

Effectiveness of Rebound Therapy in Parkinson's Patients

Start date: April 10, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Today, physiotherapy approaches in Parkinson's Disease (PD) form the basis of optimal treatment together with medical and surgical treatment. It is stated that various rehabilitation interventions may be effective in the field of physiotherapy. The frequently preferred among these rehabilitation interventions is the conventional treatment approach. In the conventional treatment, various exercises are preferred to improve balance and walking, as well as stretching and strengthening. On the other hand, rebound therapy require strong integration of the neuromuscular system and provide more active use of lower extremity muscle strength. Rebound therapy have been shown to be effective in improving balance in many neurological disease groups, but there is very little study on rebound therapy in PD. It was shown that rebound therapy improve proprioceptive sense, joint range of motion and quality of life. On the other hand, no study has been found showing its effect on balance and walking. Therefore, there is a need to investigate the effectiveness of rebound therapy on balance and walking.
