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.
In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of cold application applied for 20 minutes every hour for 8 hours on the first day, second and third days after total hip arthroplasty with gel pads, on the pain level, edema and drainage amount of total hip arthroplasty patients. The main question[s]it aims to answer are: - Is there a difference between the pain levels of patients in the control and cold application arms? - Is there a difference between the knee edema of patients in the control and cold application arms? - Is there a difference between the amount of drainage of patients in the control and cold application arms? This study was planned as a prospective, parallel, two-arm (1:1) randomized controlled trial (RCT).
Muscle activation of the upper trapezius, lower trapezius and serratus anterior muscles will be measured during prone scapular retraction exercises. Then the same exercises will be performed with abdominal contraction using a stabilizer and muscle activity of the same muscles will be measured. A comparison will be made between the two conditions.
The research was conducted in randomized controlled experimental type between May 2022 and December2023. The universe of the research consisted of children and their parents who were diagnosed with a fracture, applied to the Orthopedic outpatient clinic and Emergency department of the Erzurum Ataturk University Health Research and Application Center and referred to the Orthopedic clinic, and decided to undergo a cast procedure for treatment. The sample of the research consisted of a total of 70 children and their parents, including 35 control groups and 35 kaleidoscope groups, who met the research criteria from this universe. The children in the kaleidoscope group were shown the kaleidoscope. No intervention other than routine application was applied to the control group. "Introductory Information Form", "Wong-Baker Facial Expressions Rating Scale and Child Fear Scale were used in the collection of data.
Telerehabilitation method, which is an alternative to face-to-face rehabilitation practices for stroke patients who need intensive, regular and long-term rehabilitation in the early period, has been popularly used in recent years. Telerehabilitation is a practice in which the patient participates in the treatment via digital media without the need for the patient to come to the clinic.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of guselkumab in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis at the end of maintenance therapy among participants who were induction responders.
The purpose of this study; To determine the relationship between respiratory muscle strength, balance, trunk control, functional capacity and motor functions in stroke patients and compare them with healthy individuals.
The aim of our study is to examine the effectiveness of the Mollii Suit application on gross motor function, spasticity, postural control, upper extremity skills, selective motor control, daily living activities, quality of life, pain, sleep, constipation and drooling problems in non-ambulatory individuals with cerebral palsy (CP).
The goal of this observational study is to compare thermographic values in the knee region of the healthy extremity and the amputated extremity and learn about the relationship between thermographic value and pain in the knee region of the amputated extremity. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Do thermal values in the knee region of the amputated extremity and the intact extremity differ in individuals with transtibial amputation? 2. Is there a relationship between the pain felt in the knee region of the amputated limb and the difference in thermal values between the extremities in individuals with transtibial amputation?
This study aimed to describe a modified technique for arthroscopic-assisted transfer of the lower trapezius tendon in a selected group of patients with irreparable rotator cuff tears and to evaluate its short-term results.
In recent years, obesity has become one of the leading health problems worldwide. It is known that obesity can cause various diseases and negatively impact the quality of life. Therefore, many conditions believed to be affected by obesity and relevant to patients' quality of life have been scientifically investigated and continue to be researched. One of these conditions is postoperative pain, with studies in the literature indicating that postoperative pain levels increase in parallel with each unit increase in BMI. The incidence of lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is on the rise and adversely affecting the quality of life. The primary surgical intervention for LDH is discectomy. In recent years, various less invasive techniques, such as microdiscectomy, have been described to improve both surgical and analgesic outcomes. However, even with microdiscectomy surgery, postoperative pain may occur, and its control should be well-managed. Inadequate pain control can lead to unwanted effects of postoperative pain. Regional analgesia techniques may be preferred for effective analgesic treatment after spinal surgery. Methods such as paravertebral block, erector spinae plane block (ESPB), thoracolumbar interfascial plane block are widely used for analgesia in spinal surgery. The effectiveness of these regional techniques may vary depending on various factors, one of which is BMI. The hypothesis in this study is that as BMI increases, the level of pain in patients may also increase. As a result, this study aims to investigate the relationship between BMI and postoperative pain levels in patients undergoing standard LDH surgery, anesthesia, and analgesia.
