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; to compare the effects of therapeutic motor control interventions and conventional treatment in children with functional constipation on symptoms, spinal posture and mobility and trunk muscles endurance.
This is a Phase 2/3, multiregional, two-arm, double-blind, randomized, active (standard-of-care)-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of tividenofusp alfa (DNL310), an investigational central nervous system (CNS)-penetrant enzyme-replacement therapy (ERT) for mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II). Participants may also qualify to enter an open-label treatment phase with DNL310 or idursulfase based on pre-specified criteria.
This prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is performed after obtaining written informed consent of patients who are scheduled for elective general surgery. After the admission to the preoperative unit 30 minutes before the surgery, The preoperative anxiety of patients is evaluated by The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). Patients are randomly assigned to one of two groups in a 1:1 ratio by a computer-generated list. Patients receive midazolam IV at 0.04 mg/kg (group M) and an equal volume of saline IV (group C, control group). Anesthesia is induced with 2mg/kg of IV propofol. At a dose of 0.6 mg/kg, IV rocuronium bromide is given for neuromuscular blockade. Anesthesia is maintained at 2% sevoflurane. At the end of the surgery, anesthesia is terminated and the awake patients are extubated.
In this thesis study, the transtibial pullout method, which is one of the treatment methods for medial meniscus posterior root tear, will be used in patients over the age of 18 with medial meniscus posterior root tear, who applied to the Atatürk University Orthopedics and Traumatology clinic. The patients will be divided into two groups. In the first group, after knotting the posterior root of the medial meniscus with a fiber rope, a tunnel will be opened for the rope to pass through the medial of the proximal crest of the tibia. Then, arthroscopically, the rope will be taken through the joint and passed through the tunnel, and the knot will be fixed to the tibia by using the endobutton elevator system. In the second group, the first stage of fixation is the same, and fixation to the tibia will be done with an endobutton by tying a free knot without using an elevator system. The clinical and radiological scores of both groups just before the operation and at the twelve months after the operation will be calculated and their relationship with each other will be examined.
Randomized controlled comparison of the clinical and radiological results of using only screws and plate use in latarjet surgery in shoulder instability
Hydrocephalus is a common childhood neurosurgical disease. Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is usually used in the treatment of hydrocephalus. However, VP shunt may have some complications. In developed countries, the incidence of hydrocephalus is 1 per 1000 live births. In developing countries, it is 3-4 per 1000 live births. A multidisciplinary approach is important in the treatment and care of hydrocephalus. Parents need guidance and training for hydrocephalus treatment and care. Nurses should help parents solve all care-related problems. Technology-based nursing interventions have become popular in recent years because they make life easier for children with chronic diseases and their parents who should avoid non-emergency hospital visits during the COVID-19 pandemic. Investigators need innovative and interactive technology-based interventions to provide patients and their parents with the knowledge and skills necessary to manage chronic diseases. This study also focused on an avatar-based education program because avatars are interactive icons that provide intrinsic and extrinsic motivation for parents. Therefore Investigators develop an Avatar-based education program in Hydrocephalus (ABEP-H) and prove its effectiveness in reducing shunt complications and helping parents acquire the knowledge and develop the skills necessary for the care of their children with hydrocephalus.
Mask ventilation has great importance during anesthesia induction because it is the only way to oxygenate patients who have lost consciousness and spontaneous breathing. Opioid-derived drugs used in anesthesia induction may cause difficulty in mask ventilation due to their chest wall rigidity and respiratory depressant effects. Adequate muscle relaxation and depth of anesthesia may assist with mask ventilation. It is known that premedication reduces anxiety and has a relaxing effect on airway muscles. Midazolam is frequently used in premedication because it has a rapid onset of action and does not cause hemodynamic changes. In addition, midazolam may relax the airway by acting directly on the airway smooth muscle and thus facilitate mask ventilation during anesthesia induction. In this study, the investigators will evaluate the effect of midazolam premedication on the mask ventilation after induction with remifentanil.
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 transmits through droplets; thus, oral, nasal, and conjunctival mucosas are related to contamination, and wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) is strongly suggested. Several communication problems between the patient and healthcare workers related to PPE use are reported. In this study, investigators aimed to investigate changes in the acoustic parameters of speech sounds when different PPE are used.
In this study, the effects of an 8-week telerehabilitation-based stabilization training in persons with chronic non-specific neck pain will be investigated.
Pulmonary rehabilitation is a key element in the management of people with chronic respiratory disease. A properly followed supervised physical training program in sarcoidosis is safe and has no absolute contraindications. Fatigue can also be associated with sarcoidosis for different reasons. Individualized rehabilitation training can improve the symptoms of patients with sarcoidosis. There is no study in the literature investigating the effectiveness of one-legged exercises that reduce peripheral muscle use, in patients with sarcoidosis. In our study, these two exercise methods will be compared by applying one-legged exercise training and two-legged exercise training. The effect of one-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in sarcoidosis patients will be examined. The primary aim of our study is to compare the effects of one-legged exercise training, which is a current exercise approach, and two-legged exercise training on exercise capacity and fatigue in patients with sarcoidosis. The secondary aim is to examine the effect of this exercise training on peripheral muscle strength and quality of life parameters.
