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 purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching breathing exercises to COVID-19 patients after intensive care.The research is a randomized controlled and pretest-posttest applied design. The population of the research will consist of patients who have been previously admitted to the intensive care unit of the hospital where the research will be conducted and who meet the research criteria.The data of the study are "Patient Information Form" and "Data Registration Form", "Care dependency scale", "Health Screening short form-36", "Saint George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ), "Respiratory Function Test", "Respiratory Exercises Information Booklet" and "Breathing Exercises Information Booklet".
The investigators compared the effects of remifentanil and dexmedetomidine administered under general anesthesia on hemodynamics, postoperative pain, recovery, postoperative nausea, vomiting, shivering, patient's and surgeon's satisfaction in patients undergoing elective rhinoplasty. A single-center, prospective, blinded, randomized controlled trial. After the approval of the hospital ethics committee (KA22/12), fifty volunteers aged 18-65 years who underwent rhinoplasty under elective conditions accepted the study in the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I-III class. The patients were randomly divided into the remifentanil group (group R) and the dexmedetomidine group (group D). Group R (n=25) was initially to receive remifentanil 0.01-0.2 g/kg/min without intraoperative loading. Group D (n=25) dexmedetomidine, was initiated with a bolus of 1 mg/kg and received 0.2-0.7 g/kg per hour as an infusion during surgery.
This study was carried out as a single-blind randomized controlled study to investigate the effect of a foot bath on sleep quality in the elderly.
Trauma, neurological disorders and psychological problems, which are the etiological factors of temporomandibular joint dysfunction, can be seen in patients with traumatic brain injury. The aim of this study is to investigate temporomandibular joint dysfunction in patients with traumatic brain injury. Participants (traumatic brain injury patients and healthy volunteers) will be evaluated once for temporomandibular joint dysfunction.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of teclistamab with PVd/Kd.
The goal of this study was to determine the frequency of cognitive dysfunction in patients with cervicogenic headache. participants will be asked questions to determine their cognitive status at once.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, demyelinating, neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system of unknown etiology. The most common clinical signs and symptoms are motor dysfunction, fatigue, spasticity, impaired mobility, cognitive impairment, chronic pain, depression, decreased quality of life, and bladder and bowel dysfunction. 66% of people with MS have impaired upper extremity function. As a result of the deterioration in upper extremity function, the performance of many daily living activities affects performance. As a result of this influence, there is a decrease in the functional independence of people, quality of life, and participation in activities in the community. Exercise training represents an existing behavioral treatment approach to safely manage many functional, symptomatic, and quality-of-life outcomes in MS. Telerehabilitation has been defined as "the delivery of rehabilitation services through information and communication technologies." Telerehabilitation has proven to be useful for people with MS by increasing physical activity and reducing fatigue. In the studies, telerehabilitation and face-to-face rehabilitation services were compared, and stated that they had similar results. At the same time, it was stated that telerehabilitation provides people with gains in terms of time and cost. In addition to all these, the researchers emphasized the benefits they received from telerehabilitation from the people's statements. Therefore, the results of this study, which will be performed on MS patients, will enable the evaluation of telerehabilitation strategies from the patient's point of view. The participants was included in the study titled 'Investigation of the Effects of the Synchronized Telerehabilitation-based Upper Extremity Training Program on Hand-arm Function, Pain, Fatigue, Quality of Life, and Participation in People With Multiple Sclerosis (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05073731)' will be included in this study. Questionnaires that will enable individuals to evaluate their telerehabilitation service will be administered once. Physicians and physiotherapists will make evaluations.
Today, phacoemulsification has become the most commonly applied method in the treatment of cataract, which is considered as a public health problem. Since the eyelid margins can be a source for pathogens in phacoemulsification surgery draping after skin sterilization is applied to remove the eyelashes from the operation area. Since surgical drapes are airtight, carbon dioxide (CO2) accumulation occurs under the drape in patients under local anesthesia. During the operation, if the end tidal CO2 pressure value rises, this can lead to hyperventilation and tachycardia and also increase the intraocular pressure which is undesirable in eye surgery. In our study, in order to observe and compare undesirable conditions, regional tissue oxygenation saturation (rSO2) will be determined non-invasively with Transcutaneous Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) technology , which allows real-time monitoring. Changes in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) are strongly vaso-active, resulting in changes in cerebral blood volume and hence intracranial pressure. As the optic nerve sheath is an extension of the brain dura mater, the diameter of the sheath expands in case of increased intracranial pressure. Evaluation of the optic nerve sheath with ultrasound allows us to obtain information about intracranial pressure. For optic nerve sheath diameter, measurements above 5.0 mm in adult patients are generally considered as increased intracranial pressure. COVID-19 is a global epidemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 that we are still fighting. Although it is a multisystemic disease, it is important in terms of its effects on pulmonary function and the continuity of pulmonary symptoms and findings after this disease has been overcome. In our study, End-Tidal CO2 and cerebral oximetry (NIRS) values will be determined and compared between the groups that received 2lt/min and 4lt/min nasal oxygen support during cataract surgery performed using draping under local anesthesia in patients who had COVID-19, recovered and never had. It was aimed to evaluate and compare the values of optic nerve sheath diameter increase.
Genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) is a collection of symptoms and signs caused by hypoestrogenic changes to the labia majora/minora, clitoris, vestibule/introitus, vagina, urethra, and bladder that occur in menopausal patients. Platelet-rich plasma is produced by collecting approximately 60-90 ml (4-6 tablespoons) of blood from the vein in patient's arm. The blood is spun using a centrifuge that separates the plasma and red blood cells. The treatment included vaginal estrogen supplement, vaginal hyaluronic acid supplement, vaginal laser, platelet-rich plasma, etc. The observational cohort study will be used for the study design. Questionnaires, pelvic examination, vaginal pap smear with maturation index (MI), vaginal pH, and other methods will be used to evaluate the effectiveness and side effects.
Prospective multi centre cohort study examining the clinical presentation, diagnostic tests, and management of adult Emergency Department (ED) patients presenting with Transient Loss of Consciousness (TLOC) either undifferentiated or thought to be of syncopal origin.
