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.
This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of grasping reflex stimulation applied during peripheral intravenous central catheter (PIC) intervention on pain and stress in preterm infants receiving treatment and care in the neonatal intensive care unit.
Aim: In this study, the effect of Emotional Freedom Technique applied to patients before Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy on surgical fear and anxiety was investigated. Design: This is a randomized controlled study. Method: A total of 112 patients who were going to have Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy were randomly divided into two groups each including 56 participants. The intervention group was provided with Emotional Freedom Technique. The control group received routine face-to-face education. Surgical fear and anxiety were examined.
Blood loss is an important issue following intertrochanteric femoral fracture and may lead to requiring blood transfusions and transfusion complications. Tranexamic acid is a commonly used drug to decrease blood loss and the number of transfusions. The aim of our study is to determine the effectiveness of tranexamic acid use to reduce total blood loss during proximal femoral nailing for the intertrochanteric femoral fracture in the elderly. Patients aged >65 years and diagnosed with intertrochanteric fracture will be included in the study. The patients will be numbered according to the admission to the hospital and randomly divided into two groups. First group will receive tranexamic acid infusion and second group will not receive tranexamic acid infusion. Total blood loss will be calculated using Nadler formula. The primary outcome of the study is total blood loss. The secondary outcomes are a number of transfusions, and surgical blood loss during the operative procedure.
Septic shock is a clinical condition that is defined as a subset of sepsis that causes very high mortality and morbidity. Surviving sepsis campaign guideline states that the target mean arterial pressure should be 65 mmHg and above in septic shock patients. It is known that abdominal pressure increases and perfusion of intra-abdominal organs decreases in septic shock patients. With this study, we aim to investigate the effects of targeted abdominal perfusion pressure (60 mmHg and above) on renal injury, reversal of renal injury, liver functions and ultimately mortality in patients with septic shock.
This study aimed to determine the effects of IASTM in combination with exercise in frozen shoulder. Thirty-five patients with phase II frozen shoulder included in this single-blind, randomized study. Patients were divided into two groups. In the first group exercise programme (Group 1) and in the second group IASTM in combination with exercise programme (Group 2) were applied for twelve sessions (two days per week for six week). The primary outcome was the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score and secondary outcomes were the visual analogue scale (VAS), the range of motion (ROM), The Constant score and Short- Form-36 (SF-36). Outcome measures were performed at baseline, after the 6th session and the 12th session.
Various restrictions have been made all over the world due to coronavirus pandemics. In addition to situations such as social isolation and hygiene, the use of masks is among these rules. In addition to the protection it provides, the use of masks causes some negative situations in individuals. For this reason, the aim of our study is to examine the effects of long-term mask use on temporomandibular dysfunction, headache and fatigue.
Hip fractures are morbid conditions, especially in elderly patients, and their treatment is usually surgical. Pericapsular nerve group block is a newly defined block and targets the hip capsule. The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the perioperative analgesic efficacy of PENG blocks applied in two different volumes in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery under spinal anesthesia.
This study is a pioneering study in which the effect of the consumption of cakes produced with the addition of cereal-like products such as chia and flax seeds, which have high soluble fiber content, on blood glucose and insulin values, and the effect on the satiety response of individuals after consumption of cakes, will be a pioneer in many subjects. As a result of the study, the relationships between the changes in the investigated parameters and the possible changes in these parameters will be revealed. The results obtained suggest that foods rich in soluble fiber such as chia and flaxseed and foods produced with the possible synergetic effect of chia and flaxseed are used in healthy and safe products suitable for our consumption habits, and that these products are both protective and protective against the development of complications such as obesity and type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases. The investigators think that it may also play a role in preventing its progress.
This study will be conducted to investigate the effect of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Application on infertility stress in women undergoing infertility treatment.
The World Health Organization (WHO) and professional societies recommend restricted episiotomy instead of routine episiotomy. However, since the 1990s, there has been evidence of the risks of the procedure, and although routine use has no benefit, it is still widely used. In this study, investigators aimed to determine the effect of episiotomy on the wound healing process and pain perception by providing episiotomy wound healing and genital hygiene training with training material created to raise awareness about wound care after episiotomy and to eliminate factors that delay the healing of episiotomy wound.
