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 the present study, the authors aimed to determine food skills and cooking skills, and eating behaviors, and to evaluate the relationship between food skills and cooking skills, and eating behaviors in people with overweight or obesity. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 185 people with overweight or obesity. The researchers collected the study data using the face-to-face interview method through a questionnaire including the Descriptive Information Form, Cooking Skills and Food Skills Scale, and Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire-R21. Numbers, percentages, arithmetic mean, standard deviation, Student's t-test, Pearson Chi-Square test, and multiple linear regression analysis were used in the analysis of the data.
This investigation aims to investigate the effectiveness of Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) on neck pain, cervical range of motion, pressure pain threshold and quality of life in patients with nonspecific chronic neck pain compared to cervical therapeutic exercises.
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different durations of a specific pressure applied after blood collection on the development of ecchymosis in geriatric patients using oral and subcutaneous anticoagulants.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training for nursing students is important. The importance of using computer-assisted simulation in gaining skills for basic life support applications is increasing. In addition to the use of simulation-based teaching methods in many different fields, it is seen that they are also used for the development of cardiopulmonary resuscitation practices of students and produce effective results.The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of a web-based simulation application used in basic life support education on the level of knowledge, satisfaction and self-confidence of nursing students.
The practices of the neonatal intensive care unit that reduce the stress of premature babies and respond to behavioral cues have a positive effect on the development of newborns. The stress experienced by premature infants affects the baby's behavior and laboratory findings. Massage is an effective application in facilitating the adaptation of premature babies to extrauterine life and ensuring that they are least affected by adverse environmental conditions. Massage in premature babies has an important place in reducing stress and supporting psychological, mental and physiological development as a healthy tactile stimulus.
Constipation is defined as infrequent defecation or difficulty in evacuation. Although the constipation problem is mostly self-managed by the patients, 22% mostly refer to primary health care providers (>50%), resulting in large expenditures for diagnostic tests and treatments. According to studies conducted in our country, the incidence of constipation varies between 22-40%, while it is stated that the prevalence of constipation in hospitalized patients is 79%. Annual medical costs due to constipation are estimated to exceed 230 million dollars. Pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods are used in the management of constipation, which is one of the most common symptoms in the hospital. The use of non-pharmacological methods is recommended due to the possibility of side effects and cost of pharmacological methods. However, the prevalence of use of non-pharmacological methods in the clinic is low. Nurses need to have knowledge about non-pharmacological methods in order to manage the problem of constipation, which is one of the most common symptoms in the hospital. Abdominal massage, which is included in the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC), is an application performed with manipulations such as pressure and rubbing on certain points on the body to reduce pain, provide relaxation and relaxation, prevent and reduce nausea, and prevent constipation.
Urinary retention is defined as the inability to empty the bladder spontaneously even though the bladder is full. Although urinary retention is seen in two forms as acute and chronic, acute urinary retention is defined by the International Continence Society (ICS) as the situation where the patient is unable to urinate, the bladder is felt when palpated by hand, and the bladder content contains at least 150 ml of urine with pain. Chronic bladder retention is defined by ICS as a painless condition that can be felt when the bladder is palpated manually after urinating, with at least 150 ml of urine in the bladder content. aim:The aim of this study is to determine the Effect of Postoperative Local Dry Hot Application and Half Shower Application on the Development of Bladder Retention and Pain in Patients undergoing Spinal Anesthesia.
Headache is the most common type of pain in children and adolescents with effects on health-related quality of life (HrQoL), school attendance, and social functioning. The International Headache Society recognizes that secondary headaches can be attributed to temporamandibular joint (TMJ) problems. The primary aim of the study is to evaluate temporamandibular joint functions and parafunctional habits in adolescents with headache. The second aim is to examine the relationship between temporamandibular joint functions and parafunctional habits and headache.
This study was conducted to determine the effect of an online-supervised exercise program on fasting blood sugar, psychological resilience, and quality of life in elderly people with diabetes. A parallel-group, randomized controlled trial design was used. The study was conducted in a public hospital with 70 patients with elderly type 2 diabetes between Nowember 2021 and May 2022. A Personal Information Form, The Brief Resilience Scale and A Measure of Quality of Life in the Elderly were used to collect data.
Owing to the development of instruments and surgical techniques, the number of spinal deformity correction surgeries has increased significantly. The incidence of hemothorax due to posterior correction surgery for spinal deformity is reported to be as low as 0.1%, and the vast majority of these cases were treated through observation without additional intervention. However, if hemothorax that occurs is missed, it can result in increased mortality and morbidity. Furthermore, there is a paucity of data on management of hemothorax caused by posterior correction surgery. The aim of this retrospective study is to evaluate our cases of hemothorax after posterior correction surgery for spinal deformity.
