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.
According to the EHS classification, at least 80 patients who will undergo TEP repair for the first time with the diagnosis of M2 and M3 direct inguinal hernia will be randomized into 2 groups. After direct hernia reduction in the patients in the first group, the transversalis fascia at the hernia site will be pulled inward and fixed to the Cooper ligament with 2 or 3 absorbable tackers. Standard surgery will then be continued. The patients in the second group will undergo standard surgery without any seroma prevention procedure. Demographic data, clinical/radiological seroma rate, postoperative pain (VAS values),quality of life(SF36 questionnaire), recurrence and other complications at postoperative 1st, 7th day, 3rd and 6th month will be monitored. When the desired number of patients and the follow-up period are reached, the data in the 2 groups will be compared.
Interpersonal and Social Rhythm Therapy (IPSRT) is a type of psychotherapy that applies social rhythm theories in bipolar disorder. The purpose of IPSRT is to stabilize people's social routines (daily routines, sleep-wake balances), gain insight into the two-way relationship between interpersonal events and mood, and increase their satisfaction with social roles. This study was planned as a follow-up study in a quantitative, randomized controlled experimental design, aiming to determine the effectiveness of Peplau's Interpersonal Relations theory-based IPSRT applied to individuals with bipolar disorder to determine the effect on biological rhythm, interpersonal relationships and relapse frequencies. Pre-intervention pre-test, post-intervention post-test and follow-up scheme will be used. To carrying out of this study, first of all, intervention and control groups will be formed by randomization according to gender and bipolar type (I-II), using the Introductory Information Form, Young Mania Rating and Hamilton Depression Rating Scales from individuals with bipolar disorder registered to the Community Mental Health Service (CMHS). As a pre-test (Introductory Information Form, Young Mania Rating Scale, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, Biological Rhythm Assessment Interview, Interpersonal Competence Scale) to the intervention and control groups, Peplau Interpersonal Relations based IPSRT will be applied to the intervention group, and the control group will be given a CMHS and will also continue the treatment. IPSRT will take 40-45 minutes twice in a week and will be conducted in 10-12 individual meetings in total. Immediately, 1 month and 3 months after the interviews, post-tests will be applied to the intervention and control groups With this study, the biological rhythms of IPSRT individuals based on Peplau Interpersonal Relationship Theory in bipolar disorder will be regulated and the frequency of relapse will decrease. In addition, individuals with bipolar disorder, which is one of the lifelong mental illnesses that cause stigmatization, will continue their lives in the community, their functionality will increase in their work life, school life and social life, and hospitalization will decrease
The aim of this study was to evaluate the translation, cross-cultural fit, and psychometric properties of the European Heart Failure Self-Care Behavior Questionnaire for Caregivers.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of different arm positions on muscle activity during single leg squat.
If a vaginal manipulator is used for abdominal hysterectomy, the vagina can be cut and separated from the cervix without cutting the Cardinal and Sacrouterine ligaments and protecting the top of the vaginal tissue (Portio vaginalis). In this way, both the shortening of the vagina and the prolapse of the vaginal cuff can be prevented. In addition, the duration of hysterectomy surgery is significantly shortened.
The study aims to designing virtual reality-based testing and rehabilitation software for people with multiple sclerosis and assess the feasibility of software. Also, the effects of an 8-week virtual reality-based upper extremity training in persons with multiple sclerosis will be investigated.
This research was carried out in order to determine the effect of breast massage and hot compresses on milk release and anxiety to mothers with premature babies in YYBU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit)
At least 80 patients who will undergo laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair surgery will be randomized into 2 groups. For the patients in the first group, the whole mesh will be laid on the area without being fixed. The patients in the second group will be given a mesh of the same size, but partially divided horizontally and wrapped around the spermatic cord. Demographic data of patients in both groups, quality of life data(Carolinas Comfort Scale) at postoperative 1st, 7th, 30th, 3rd and 6th months, postoperative pain (VAS values), clinical seroma rate, recurrence and other complications will be monitored. When the desired number of patients and follow-up period are reached, the data in the 2 groups will be compared.
Postoperative pain is a condition that increases morbidity and mortality. Therefore, multimodal analgesia techniques with fascial plan blocks are frequently used.TAP block provides analgesia in the anterior abdominal wall by applying local anesthetic to the fascia between the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscle. Opioids can be added to local anesthetics to increase the quality and duration of analgesia. The investigators aim is comparasion of TAP block with bupivacaine added morphine and TAP block with bupivacaine plus intramuscular morphine effects on postoperative pain score, total opioid consumption and systemic effects in lower abdominal surgery
Pes planus is a deformity called "flatfoot" and is defined as the valgus of the hindfoot while loading the foot, the disappearance of the medial longitudinal arch in the midfoot, and the supination of the forefoot relative to the hindfoot. The aim of this study is to compare the subtalar angle, q angle, trunk muscle endurance, and performance of individuals with pes planus and healthy controls. Volunteer students between the ages of 18-35 will be included among the students studying at the Health Sciences University Gülhane Faculty of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation. The feet of individuals who want to be included in the study will be examined by the researchers with the navicular drop test and the presence of pes planus will be determined according to this test. Subtalar Angle to determine the degree of rotation (Varus/Valgus) in the hindfoot, Q Angle for knee biomechanics, Navicular Drop Test to determine flat feet, Mcgill trunk Flexion, Extension, and Lateral Bridge Test to evaluate trunk endurance, Xbox to evaluate lower and upper extremity performance 360Kinect™ game console will be used. In this study, statistical analyzes will be made with SPSS 21 package program (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA). Wilcoxon test or Mann Whitney U will be used after determining the conformity to the normal distribution in the comparison of the values before and after the exercises, individuals with and without flat feet. Results will be evaluated at the significance level of p<0.05. Cohen's d values will be calculated to determine the study effect size.
