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.
The aim of the study is to examine the effect of animal-assisted practice on fear in children admitted to the emergency room.
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) occurs in approximately 15% of all pregnancies worldwide.GDM can lead to the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) later in a woman's life. Babies of mothers with GDM have a greater risk of developing T2DM and cardiovascular disease than infants of women without GDM. The degree of insulin resistance is directly proportional to the accumulated free radicals. Selenium functions as an active site component of an antioxidant enzyme, glutathione peroxidase, and helps scavenge free radicals. In addition, an experimental study has shown that selenium provides activation by binding to insulin receptors and lowers blood sugar by increasing glucose uptake by cells. According to all this information, we aimed to evaluate the effect of selenium on blood sugar regulation in pregnant patients.
It is important to evaluate the nasogastric tube application skill, which is one of the basic skills training of graduate students who are about to step into the nursing profession, using traditional and virtual reality methods. From this point of view, the research was planned as a randomized, control group, experimental study to evaluate the effect of virtual reality-based nasogastric tube application skill on the knowledge, skills and self-confidence of graduate nursing students. The research is planned to be carried out between 1 March 2023 and 30 June 2024 with graduate nursing students continuing their education in Eskişehir Osmangazi University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing. The universe of the research will consist of 150 students studying in the 4th grade of Eskişehir Osmangazi University, Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing in the 2023-2024 academic year. Since it is aimed to reach the universe in the research, no sample selection will be made. Students who volunteer to participate in the research will be listed, each student will be given a sequence number, and random assignment will be made to groups A and B with the help of a computer program (www.random.org). Then, which of these groups is the experimental group and which one is the control group, it will be decided by drawing lots. Data collection tools of the study; Personal Information Form consisting of 11 questions about socio-demographic characteristics and nasogastric tube application skill, Nasogastric Tube Application Skill Knowledge Test consisting of 20 questions, Nasogastric Tube Application Skill Checklist consisting of 52 procedure steps, Self-Confidence Evaluation Form (Visual Comparison Scale - and Anxiety, Stress, Satisfaction and Motivation Evaluation Form (Visual Comparison Scale - GKO). This research will be carried out in two stages as design and implementation. In the first stage of the research, there are training for reminding nasogastric tube application skills, knowledge test, preparation of skill checklist and measurement tools, implementation of software suitable for virtual reality glasses according to nasogastric tube application procedure steps and integration with glasses. In the second stage of the study, the evaluation of the knowledge, skills and self-confidence of the control and experimental groups with the applied intervention is considered.
Comparison of the effects of bolus, intermittent and continuous enteral feeding techniques on plasma glucose level and enteral feeding intolerance in adult intensive care unit patients with sepsis.
Basketball is an aerobic-based anaerobic sport that calls for both high-intensity movements like jumping (for rebounds, blocks, and shots), spins, dribbling, sprinting, and screening and low-intensity movements like walking, stopping, and running.This sport requires sudden and fast movements where jumping performance is often a decisive factor for sporting success and Whether crouching in a defensive situation or throwing a long pass, a player needs to have a sufficient level of flexibility for adequate efficiency. Fascia connects the structures of the body with muscles, nerves and blood vessels. Limitations may occur due to injury. These limitations can reduce flexibility, strength, endurance and coordination.Therefore, this study aims to compare the acute effects of manual and self-myofascial release on flexibility and jump performance in basketball players. The secondary aim was to examine the acute improvements in flexibility and jump performance after myofascial therapy.
This research will be carried out to determine the effect of the relaxation program applied to the caregivers of children followed by the diagnosis of cancer on the levels of caregivers' anxiety and coping with stress. The research will be conducted in a single-blind parallel-group randomized controlled trial design. A relaxation program including progressive muscle relaxation exercises will be applied to caregivers. The application will be carried out by sending muscle relaxation videos and videos for relaxation to mothers. The relaxation program is planned to last approximately 6 weeks
This research was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of the technology-based psychosocial empowerment program for home care for children aged 8-18 years with cancer and their parents as a parallel-group randomized controlled study design.The required institutional permission and ethics committee approval was received.The study group of the study consisted of 72 children and parents (intervention group [n=36], control group [n=36]). Data were collected using the descriptive features form, the General Self-Efficacy Scale-Pediatric Cancer Version, the State and Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children, the Pediatric Cancer Coping Scale, the General Self-Efficacy Scale for parents, the Problem-Solving Scale, and the Cope and Adaptatıon Process Scale. The data were stored in the SPSS 25 program.
This study will carried out to determine the effect of acupressure applied to Tianshu (ST25), Guanyuan (CV4) and Hegu (LI4) acupuncture points for a total of 6 minutes, two to each point, on the symptoms of constipation in the elderly people receiving institutional care.
The research will be carried out in a randomized controlled experimental study design in order to evaluate the effect of standard patient simulation method on communication skills, satisfaction and self-confidence in learning of nursing students in communication with intensive care patients. The research will be conducted face-to-face with nursing students who are in the 2nd year of the Faculty of Health Sciences of Sinop University and meet the inclusion criteria in the fall semester of 2022-2023, after the necessary permissions are obtained for the study.
Chronic ankle instability was first defined by Freeman as recurrent ankle sprains following an ankle sprain and the feeling of dislocation in the ankle lasting longer than six months. The recurrence of ankle sprains in athletes leads to the realization of ankle instability. Functional ankle instability gives the feeling that a re-sprain will occur at any time due to decreased static and dynamic support in the joint.Neuro-vestibular-ocular exercises is an approach that combines neuromuscular training and vestibular-ocular training techniques.At the same time, we are doing this study because of the mixed studies on the effect of fascial relaxation on the performance and proprioception of a specific group of football players.
