NCT ID: NCT06295718 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Tele-assessment of Functional Performance and Quality of Life in Patients With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Validity and Reliability Study

Start date: July 1, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Thanks to tele-assessment methods, it may be possible to evaluate DMD patients without traveling to clinical centers. In recent years, the applicability of remote assessment methods in DMD patients, as in many populations, is being investigated. However, studies have generally focused on a single evaluation parameter such as physical function, a special evaluation method or a special evaluation tool. The aim of this study is to investigate whether remote assessment of functional performance and quality of life in DMD patients is valid and reliable. If a valid and reliable tele-evaluation method that includes functional performance and quality of life parameters is found to be valid and reliable, the travel burden on patients and caregivers can be eased, patients' stress and anxiety related to travel can be reduced, caregivers can save time and energy and provide patients with the best possible treatment.

NCT ID: NCT06277375 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Massage Intervention

The Effect of Slow Stroke Back Massage on Pain and Fatigue in Women With Fibromyalgia

Start date: September 14, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FM) is defined as a non-inflammatory chronic pain syndrome with widespread pain in the musculoskeletal system, tender points (PINs) on physical examination and no specific laboratory findings. T Sampling was calculated using Power power (G Power 3.1.9.4) analysis. The effect size of the study was calculated based on the mean pain scores and standard deviations of the control and experimental groups taken from the study conducted by Field, et al. (2002). Accordingly, when 25 patients were included in each group, it was determined that the power was 85% at 5% Type I error level. The application to the experimental group will be done 3 days a week for 10 minutes for a total of 30 minutes. data will be collected with patient information form, fatigue severity scale and vas.

NCT ID: NCT06274138 Enrolling by invitation - Infertility Clinical Trials

The Enchanting Symphony of Haptonomy's Impact on Attachment and Spousal Harmony for Women Conceiving Through Infertility Treatment

Start date: June 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pregnancies resulting from infertility treatment are considered normal and 'low-risk' in some countries, they often entail significant stress. Prenatal attachment may be experienced differently by parents conceiving through fertility interventions. The rising prevalence of fertility treatments is associated with increased risks such as preterm birth, low birth weight, and perinatal mortality for pregnancies achieved through infertility treatments. Beyond medical implications, post-infertility treatment pregnancies can induce high levels of anxiety and a perception of pregnancy as risky, affecting individuals psychologically. The transition to parenthood after infertility treatment can be psychologically challenging. Healthy prenatal attachment in expectant mothers fosters the development of a healthy role as both mother and father. Maternal bonding is closely tied to a woman's mental health during the prenatal period and her commitment to her baby. Similarly, prenatal bonding with the father sheds light on the emotional connection developing between the father and the unborn child. Active participation in prenatal experiences, such as attending ultrasound appointments or discussing parenting plans, contributes to a stronger sense of attachment for fathers and establishes a positive foundation for future bonding. Supportive partner relationships during pregnancy enhance paternal bonding and emphasize the importance of a collaborative approach to prenatal care for both parents. The prenatal period is critical for fathers to establish an early emotional connection with their unborn children, laying a positive groundwork for postnatal bonding. Various interventions aim to enhance communication between parents and augment prenatal attachment. One such practice is haptonomy-haptotherapy. Haptotherapy focuses on restoring emotional connections, especially with one's own body. It helps individuals recognize their emotional capacities and allows them to experience these capacities through insightful conversations, therapeutic touch, and skill exercises. In the context of pregnancy, haptonomy involves physical contact between the pregnant woman, her partner, and the unborn baby. Advocates of haptonomy believe that this touch-based communication can strengthen the bond between parents and the baby, promote a sense of security, and positively influence the pregnancy experience. Haptonomy is thought to contribute positively to the psychological well-being of women during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period, potentially preventing mental health issues and enhancing the health of both mother and baby. It is emphasized that haptonomy is a distinct practice focused on enhancing communication between parents and the baby. Existing literature suggests that haptonomy can increase emotional bonding during the prenatal period and may be effective for parents showing low attachment. Studies indicate that touch communication develops from the second month, involving vibrations for communicating with the fetus, ultimately increasing bonding through haptonomy. Furthermore, haptonomy is reported to enhance both spousal and parental attachment, as demonstrated in a study emphasizing increased attachment for fathers with their partners and children. Despite documented benefits of haptonomy in various patient groups, from cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy to pregnant women and those with chronic pain, limited research exists on haptotherapy for pregnant women. This study aims to investigate the impact of partner-administered haptonomy on prenatal attachment and marital adjustment in pregnant women. Conducted through a randomized controlled experimental design, the study seeks to provide evidence by enhancing prenatal attachments in both mothers and fathers. Research Hypotheses: H0-1: The application of haptonomy by partners has an effect on maternal attachment in pregnant women. H1-1: The application of haptonomy by partners does not have an effect on maternal attachment in pregnant women. H0-2: The application of haptonomy by partners has no effect on paternal attachment in pregnant women. H1-2: The application of haptonomy by partners has an effect on paternal attachment in pregnant women. H0-3: The application of haptonomy by partners has no effect on marital adjustment in pregnant women. H1-3: The application of haptonomy by partners has an effect on marital adjustment in pregnant women.
