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 research; The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the pre-procedural education given to the patients undergoing coronary angiography on the anxiety level and vital signs of the patients.

More than 50% of patients presenting with chest trauma experience rib fractures and these rib fractures are associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and long-term disability. Many of these adverse outcomes result from poorly controlled pain that interferes with breathing, leading to atelectasis, pneumonia, and respiratory failure. Therefore, early provision of adequate analgesia is crucial in the management of these patients. The basic stones of analgesic therapy are oral and intravenous drugs such as paracetamol, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and opioids. However, patients with more significant injuries or comorbidities often require interventional procedures to provide adequate analgesia and avoid opioid-related side effects. Thoracic epidural analgesia and thoracic paravertebral blocks have traditionally been used, but these techniques are associated with side effects and may cause hemodynamic instability. Today, the use of ultrasonography (USG) guided block techniques such as erector spinae plane block (ESPB), serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) and intercostal block (ICB) has increased. These techniques are considered to be simpler and theoretically safer. Although ICB is frequently mentioned in the literature, the publications of new plane blocks such as ESPB and SAPB are new and few in number. In this study, SAPB and ICP to be performed with USG will be evaluated in terms of analgesic effect.
It is predicted by studies that the motor and cognitive performance disorders seen in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) may lead to loss of balance, postural control and mobility. At the same time, trunk muscle fatigue seen in children with CP is a critical motor problem and may cause deficits in adjusting the proper connection between the trunk and pelvis stabilizers.These deficits can lead to impairments in balance, postural control and mobility. Considering the relationship between the deficits seen in children with CP and postural control and postural control with the trunk, the idea that there is a need for studies that evaluate the trunk in every way and reveal its relationship with balance, postural control and mobility in order to organize the rehabilitation program effectively in children with CP. Therefore, in the planning of our study, it was aimed to evaluate trunk control and endurance in children with CP and to examine their relationship with balance and functional mobility parameters, as well as to reveal their relationship with functional health and quality of life.
Aim and objectives: The aim of this study is to examine the effect of motivational notifications applied to emergency nurses on job satisfaction, compassion fatigue and communication skills during the COVID-19 pandemic. Background: Emergency room nurses working on the front lines during the COVID-19 pandemic; many factors such as excessive workload, prolonged working hours, threat of infection, death of the patients they care for have caused them to experience physical, social and psychological problems. Design: It is a randomized controlled, open-label study. Methods: This study was carried out with a total of 60 nurses working in the emergency units of two training and research hospitals in Istanbul. Participants were divided into motivational group and control group. Motivational notifications were sent via Short Message Service (SMS) to the mobile phones of the participants in the motivational group (n=30) for 21 days. No motivational notification was sent to the control group (n=30) during this process. Data were obtained with the Individual Introduction Form, Job Satisfaction, Compassion Fatigue and Communication Skills Scale.
Surgical intervention is a planned or unplanned procedure performed to eliminate the existing or subsequent abnormal conditions in the individual's body, to reduce the effects of these conditions, or to remove the abnormal structures from the individual's body to eliminate the existing distress. While surgical interventions also cause anxiety in patients, it is known that they also cause significant anxiety in patients' relatives.This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to examine the effect of this information on the anxiety level of the relatives of the patients by informing the relatives of the patients about the operation process with a short message during cardiovascular surgery. In data collection; Introductory information form for the patient and patient relatives, a short message follow-up form, state and trait anxiety inventory will be used during the surgical intervention. The sample of the study will be the relatives of the patients who are willing to participate in the study. Considering the change in the state anxiety scale scores between the experimental and control groups in the study of Baydemir S. (2019), it is calculated that there is a large effect size difference. Based on this finding, in order to test a large effect size (d=0.8) difference in anxiety scale scores of patient relatives between our experimental and control groups with 5% margin of error and 95% power, a total of 84 relatives of patients, 42 from each group, were included in the study. needed was calculated. H0: Informing by text message has no effect on the anxiety of patient relatives. H1: Informing by text message has an effect on the anxiety of patient relatives.
Pfizer - BioNTech (BNT162b2) COVID - 19 vaccine is the first vaccine to be approved for emergency use by FDA. The most commonly reported side effect of the BNT162b2 vaccination is mild-to-moderate pain at injection site, i.e. deltoid muscle. Injection site pain may be observed during and after vaccine injection, and severity of pain may vary according to the type of vaccine, patients age, sex, level of anxiety, needle size, injection site and technique and patient positioning. Vaccination pain is one of the reasons of vaccine hesitancy and World Health Organization (WHO) recommended various measures to mitigate pain at the time of vaccination. Exercise is one of the suggested methods to relieve the pain and anxiety in various conditions including vaccination site pain. However, we found no studies addressing injection site pain after the vaccination and pain associated with BNT162b2 vaccine. Aim of our study is to evaluate effectiveness of deltoid muscle exercises to relieve injection site pain observed after BNT162b2 vaccination.

To compare the efficacy and safety of remibrutinib versus teriflunomide in patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS)
A study of siremadlin in combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine in adult participants with AML who are ineligible for chemotherapy. The primary purpose of this study was to assess whether siremadlin in combination with venetoclax plus azacitidine can enhance the clinical response in unfit AML patients without unacceptable levels of treatment-emergent toxicities.
