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 was carried out between December 2021 and May 2022 as a randomized controlled experimental design. In the study, between 28-35 weeks of gestation preterm infants were divided into two groups as the experimental group (n=30) and the control group (n=30). The block randomization method was used to ensure that the infants were similar in terms of both weeks and weight due to the large interval between the weeks and to ensure the balance between the groups. Infants in the control group were followed in the routine prone position of the neonatal intensive care unit, while infants in the experimental group were followed in the prone position with three-stair positioning pillows.
In patients who underwent thoracotomy due to lung malignancy; It is desired to investigate whether there is a difference in terms of postoperative results between those with and without anemia, and those with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) who underwent intravenous iron replacement and those who did not, according to the hemoglobin value in their preoperative examinations.
This study was planned to evaluate the effect of simulation teaching method on the knowledge and skills of midwifery students in applying vaginal examination in labor.The study was planned as a randomized controlled trial.Research Tokat It will be held between 10.10.2022 and 10.06.2023 at Gaziosmanpaşa University Faculty of Health Sciences, Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University Health Research and Application Hospital and Tokat Provincial Health Directorate Tokat State Hospital.The population of the research will consist of students (N=102) who are students of Tokat Gaziosmanpaşa University Health Sciences Faculty Midwifery Department, who took the Normal Birth and Postpartum Period course for the first time in the 2022-2023 academic year, and who have not had a vaginal examination before. The sample of the randomized controlled study was calculated in the G*Power 3.1 program . Accordingly, the number of samples to be included in the study for an error margin of 0.05 with a statistical power of 80% was calculated as n= 51 for the experimental group and n= 51 for the control group for each group.The Effect of Simulation Teaching Method on Midwifery Students' Knowledge and Skills of Applying Vaginal Examination in Labor: The Randomized Controlled Study Questionnaire consists of four parts.Randomly determined experimental group students will perform eight vaginal examination scenarios different in terms of cervical effacement, cervical dilatation, presence of amniotic membrane, presenting fetus part, position of the fetus and fetal descent on the fetal monitoring and labor progress model set in the laboratory. The control group will not receive any simulation training.
Background: Performing simulation applications using standardized patients provides realistic educational results that support critical thinking and learning, conducted using complex, effective communication scenarios. Objective: This study was planned to evaluate the effect of the use of standardized pediatric patient practice in pediatric nursing education on the ability of nursing students to prepare the child for the procedure. Method: The research was conducted using a convergent parallel design, which is a mixed method design. Ethics committee approval was obtained with the decision numbered 19/376 regarding the ethical suitability of the research. The sample of the study consists of 106 students. The students included in the study were given an introductory information form and the state trait anxiety scale and self-efficacy efficacy scale as pre-tests, and then the theoretical course "Preparing the child for the process according to age periods and communicating with the child patient" was explained. The students were divided into intervention and control groups by randomization. The students in the intervention group participated in the simulation application using standardized pediatric patients. Qualitative data were collected during the debriefing phase of the simulation and student satisfaction and self-confidence in learning scale was applied to the students in the intervention group. Before clinical practice, state trait anxiety scale, self-efficacy scale and perceived learning scale were applied as posttests. During the clinical practice, all students were evaluated in terms of their ability to prepare a real school-age child patient for the procedure.
Many painful interventions that cause pain and stress are applied to preterm babies in the neonatal intensive care unit for diagnosis and treatment. In neonatal care and reduction of acute interventional pain; Non-pharmacological methods including behavioral, psychological and environmental regulations should be used. In the hepatitis B vaccine administered to preterm babies, stimulating the grasping reflex can make the preterm baby feel safe and calm. In the literature, there are many studies aimed at reducing pain in preterm newborns. However, no study has been found on the effect of grasping reflex stimulation on pain and crying in hepatitis B vaccine administration to preterm infants. This study was planned to examine the effect of grasping reflex on pain and crying duration in preterm infants with hepatitis B vaccine.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a critical complication associated with a high incidence of morbidity and mortality that can occur in critically ill patients and after major surgical procedures. The aim of this study is to identify the incidance and outcomes of patients underwent pneumonectomy, defined by Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of efavaleukin alfa in participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC).
The underlying causative mechanism that leads to intraoperative hypotension (IOH) may vary depending on the stage of anesthesia and surgery, which determines different IOH types. Naturally, the incidence and severity of IOH types will differ, as will the incidence and severity of postoperative complications.
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the effectiveness of combined arthrocentesis and occlusal stabilization splint therapy in patients diagnosed with disc displacement without reduction of temporomandibular joint-induced closed locks. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there a difference in the treatment response between chronic and acute closed-lock conditions? - On which dimensions of pain did the treatment have positive effects? Participants will be preoperatively examined and assigned to one of the two study groups. - All participants undergo a single session of TMJ arthrocentesis. - Following the arthrocentesis session, all participants will use preoperatively fabricated occlusal splints. - Participants will be recalled in one week to evaluate the outcomes. Researchers will compare acute and chronic closed-lock groups to see if there are differences between pain intensities and mouth-opening amounts postoperatively.
This research consists of two stages: the first stage aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Hemodialysis Resilience Scale, which was developed to evaluate the resilience of patients receiving hemodialysis treatment, in Turkish society, and the second stage aims to determine the effect of motivational interviewing method on patients' psychological resilience and compliance with hemodialysis treatment in individuals undergoing hemodialysis. The main question it aims to answer is: Does motivational interviewing has an effect on psychological resilience and treatment compliance of hemodialysis patients?
