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.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the knowledge, skills, and motivation of parents regarding management of epileptic seizures, by developing a "Virtual Reality Based Seizure Management Education Program for Parents (VR-ESMEPP). Method: This study is a double-blinded, pretest-posttest, observational randomized controlled study. The administration stage of the study was conducted between September 2018-February 2020 with parents of 91 children who were diagnosed with epilepsy and were being followed in the Pediatric Neurology Outpatient Department of Akdeniz University Hospital. The parents were distributed into groups with simple randomization (VR Group n=45-Control Group n=46). During the preparation stage of the study, data collection tools "Management-of-Epileptic Seizure-Training-Program-Prepared-with-Virtual-Reality-Technology" and "Patient Scenario Regarding Secondary Generalized Tonic-Clonic Epileptic Scenario with Aura" were prepared and integrated into the virtual reality glasses. In the administration stage, the intervention group was administered the pretest, then the training program, and a posttest immediately following the training. The participants were monitored on the 15th day. For the control group, a pretest, routine outpatient clinical practices, and a posttest were carried out; and the participants were monitored on day 15. In both groups, data were obtained with data collection tools that were integrated into the virtual reality glasses. An approval from the Ethics Committee of Akdeniz University, a written permission from the Akdeniz University Hospital, and informed consent from the parents were obtained to conduct the study.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of education and counseling based on the hypno-breastfeeding philosophy given in the antenatal period on only breastfeeding status, breastfeeding self-efficacy and breastfeeding motivation.
The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of virtual care for children with asthma on the disease management and quality of life of children with asthma.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of transcutaneous pulsed radiofrequency current in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.
In this study, investigators hypothesize the following: How will the amounts of these factors, which are involved in fibrin formation and wound healing, change after the block? If there is an increase, investigators can conclude that it has a positive effect on wound healing and immunity, if there is no change, it has no effect on wound healing and immunity.
This study aimed to research the effect of different general anesthesia administration on postoperative smell functions and memory.
Direct laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation are associated with increases in intraocular pressure (IOP), intracranial pressure (ICP), heart rate (HR), and blood pressure. The use of supraglottic airway devices (SADs) are known to be beneficial in overcoming the disadvantages of laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation, especially ocular and pressure stress responses. In recent years, it has been reported that ultrasonographic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) can be used in the diagnosis of increased ICP. The aim of our study is to compare the effects of Proseal laryngeal mask airway (pLMA), Suprem laryngeal mask airway (sLMA) and I-gel on hemodynamic response and ONSD during insertion in adult patients.
The aim of the investigator is to compare the efficacy of greater occipital nerve block and transcutaneous pulsed radiofrequency treatment in migraine.
The dural epidural tap method is performed by creating a dural perforation with a spinal needle placed through epidural needle, followed by placement of a catheter into the epidural space. No medications are administered through spinal needle. This prospective, randomized study includes 70 ASA II primigravid women with cervical dilatation between 4-6 cm and demanding epidural analgesia during spontaneous vaginal delivery.In the first group, 20 mL of 0.125% bupivacaine + 2 mcg/mL fentanyl solution and in the second group, 20 mL of 0.0625% bupivacaine + 2 mcg/mL fentanyl solution was administered as the first dose through the epidural catheter. Then, the visual analog scale (VAS) score was aimed to be below 4 in both groups.
In the first half hour of a cesarean advertisement, the service-oriented mother will not be mobile and will need support to get fit in bed and start getting started. The patient turning and movement system will provide a lot of convenience to the mother who does not have enough support. With the remote control system, the mother will be easily turned to the desired side in the bed and it will be ensured that she takes the desired position with less pain and more comfort.
