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 goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effect of preoperative virtual reality used before cesarean on postoperative pain and anxiety. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What is the anxiety level of women in the intervention and control groups after using virtual reality? - What is the pain level of women in the intervention and control groups after using virtual reality? Women in the intervention group will be shown a relaxing video accompanied by virtual reality glasses before cesarean. No intervention will be applied to women in the control group. Researchers will compare pre- and post-operative anxiety levels and post-operative pain levels of both groups.
Urinary incontinence is defined by the International Children's Continence Society as involuntary urinary leakage that can be continuous or intermittent in children aged five and over. Urinary incontinence is divided into subgroups of daytime incontinence, nocturnal enuresis and combined daytime incontinence and nocturnal enuresis. Different pelvic floor rehabilitation programs appear to be effective in children with daytime incontinence and nocturnal enuresis but mostly focus on the pelvic floor muscle training component. However, pelvic floor rehabilitation includes many components such as education, lifestyle changes, manual techniques, pelvic floor muscle training, functional exercises, biofeedback therapy, electrical stimulation and home program. However, there is no study examining the effectiveness of a multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program in the treatment of children with urinary incontinence. It is also unclear for which urinary incontinence type the multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program will be more effective. Therefore, investigators aim to compare the effects of a multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program on lower urinary tract symptoms, pelvic floor muscles and other related muscle functions in children with different urinary incontinence types. Children between the ages of 5 and 18 who were diagnosed with urinary incontinence by applying to Ege University Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Urology will be included in the study. Participants will be divided into three groups: daytime incontinence, nocturnal enuresis, and combined daytime incontinence and nocturnal enuresis. A multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program will be performed on all children for 10 weeks, two days a week and approximately 45 minutes. A multimodal pelvic floor rehabilitation program will include education, bladder and bowel training, manual techniques, exercise training (diaphragmatic breathing exercise, pelvic floor muscle training, trunk stabilization exercises based on developmental kinesiology) and a home program. Children's lower urinary symptoms will be assessed with the Dysfunctional Voiding and Incontinence Scoring System, Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire, Childhood Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction Questionnaire, bladder and bowel diary, and the functions of the pelvic floor muscles and other related muscles will be assessed with superficial electromyography and ultrasonography.
"Our study aims to determine which of ankle correction, quadriceps facilitation, and gluteus maximus facilitation taping provides a better immediate effect on balance skills in children with mildly affected cerebral palsy. Children whose parents have given consent for the study will undergo three different taping applications with a one-week interval. After each taping application, a 15-minute waiting period will be observed, followed by balance assessment using the Wii Balance System with eyes open and closed."
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, inflammatory, demyelinating, autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Despite functional limitations and unpredictable disease course, individuals with MS are aimed to maintain different levels of independence according to the level of disability. It is aimed to develop interventions that aim to increase self-efficacy levels and participation in daily life in individuals with this diagnosis. The "Unidimensional Self-Efficacy Scale for Multiple Sclerosis (USE-MS)" is a self-efficacy scale developed specifically for individuals with MS and answered based on patient declaration. The aim of this study is to adapt the "USE-MS" scale into Turkish and to establish its validity and reliability.
Fatigue is defined as an overwhelming feeling of weariness, lack of energy, and a feeling of exhaustion. It is common in Parkinson's Disease (PD) and is one of the most disabling symptoms. Fatigue is affected by motor and non-motor symptoms in individuals diagnosed with PD. As a result of this impact, it manifests itself as difficulty in initiating and continuing mental and physical tasks. This study aims to examine the fatigue of individuals diagnosed with PD and the factors associated with this fatigue.
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the involvement of dopaminergic pathways in the basal ganglia. Motor and non-motor symptoms are frequently observed in PD. These symptoms may negatively affect the quality of life of individuals with PD. Therefore, it is recommended to evaluate the quality of life of individuals with PD and plan appropriate treatments. The "Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life 7 (PDQoL7)" questionnaire is a patient-reported quality of life assessment questionnaire developed specifically for individuals with PD. The questionnaire, which consists of 7 questions in total, evaluates the degree of difficulty the patient has in performing various activities. The aim of this study was to adapt the PDQoL7 questionnaire into Turkish and to establish its validity and reliability.
The study is researching an experimental drug called odronextamab, referred to as study drug. The study is focused on patients with previously treated aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma whose cancer has stopped responding to treatment (also known as 'refractory') or has returned (also known as 'relapsed'). The aim of the study is to see how effective the study drug is compared to standard of care (SOC) therapy. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: - What side effects may happen from taking the study drug versus SOC - How much study drug is in your blood at different times - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug (which could make the drug less effective or could lead to side effects) - Comparing the impact from the study drug versus SOC on your quality-of-life and ability to complete routine daily activities
The breastfeeding software developed with the primiparous study was transferred to virtual reality glasses. This study will be applied to pregnant women and its effect on breastfeeding success and breastfeeding self-efficacy will be investigated.
The investigators believe that these information forms, exercise forms and video recordings that provide patient education will contribute to the collaborative approach of the patient and the clinician, the patient's participation in the treatment, the expectation of treatment and results, and their autonomy. The contribution of patient information forms, exercise forms and video recordings, which have become very important in recent years, to different degrees of results will be questioned.
Rotator cuff syndrome is one of the most common problems in the shoulder, starting as acute tendinopathy and progressing to partial and full thickness tears. Shoulder pain causes a decrease in shoulder joint movement, joint position sense, upper extremity function and quality of life. Among the most commonly used conservative treatment methods; Joint range of motion exercises, stretching exercises, strengthening exercises, mobilization and electrotherapy method are included. Nowadays, with the widespread use of technology in rehabilitation, video-based games have begun to be used for rehabilitative purposes in addition to conservative approaches. Although the effectiveness of video-based games has been extensively studied in diseases such as cerebral palsy, stroke and parkinsonism, there are a limited number of studies in the field of orthopedic rehabilitation, especially in shoulder rehabilitation. Basic body awareness therapy is used to treat chronic musculoskeletal-related painful conditions. In the literature, basic body awareness therapy has been studied in patient groups such as mental health, stroke patient groups, chronic musculoskeletal problems, chronic waist and neck pain, scoliosis and knee osteoarthritis. Studies have shown that the TBFT method provides improvements in individuals' body awareness, mobility in daily living activities, health-related quality of life, body image and pain intensity. However, no studies have been found in which basic body awareness therapy was used in the field of shoulder rehabilitation. Our study aims to compare the effectiveness of a rehabilitative game exercise program and body awareness training in terms of pain, joint range of motion, shoulder functionality, proprioception, body awareness, shoulder-related quality of life, kinesiophobia and patient satisfaction in individuals with Rotator cuff syndrome.
