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.
It was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of the evidence-based practice education intervention program in 3rd year students of the Faculty of Nursing on their knowledge, attitude, behavior and future use of evidence-based practice, and their awareness and attitudes towards research and developments. The study was parallel group (experimental-control), randomized controlled experimental design with pretest-posttest design. It was carried out in 3rd year students of nursing department of Selçuk University Faculty of Nursing in Konya province. Study data were collected from 108 students between February 2023 and June 2023. Nursing students in the intervention (n = 54) and control groups (n = 54) were determined by randomization method.
The aim of this randomised controlled study was to examine the effect of peer counselling on first-year nursing students' perceptions of nursing image in orientation processes.The H0 hypothesis of the study is that there is no statistical difference between the scores of the image scale towards nursing between the experimental and control groups after the peer-assisted orientation process.
The aim of study was to investigate the effect of cervical stabilization exercises (CSE) combined with tDCS on functional status, cognitive functions and sleep quality in individuals with chronic neck pain. A total of 29 individuals with chronic neck pain (33.06±14.81 age) were included in the study. Combined CSE with tDCS (2 mA/20 min) was applied to the experimental group (n=10); only CSE was applied to the control group (n=10); placebo tDCS (0 mA/20 min) and CSE were applied to the sham group (n=9). Before and after the 8-week intervention comprising a total of 16 sessions, the following assessments were carried out: Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Neck Bournemouth Questionnaire (NBQ), Cervical Muscle Endurance Tests, The Profile Fitness Mapping Neck Questionnaire (ProFitMap-neck), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Trail Making Test (TMT) and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
Clinical pharmacy services aim to enhance patient outcomes and reduce the risk of potential drug-related harm by offering patient-centred pharmaceutical care. In the hospital setting, clinical pharmacists collaborate with physicians as part of a multidisciplinary team to identify and prevent DRPs (Drug-related problems). Clinical pharmacist interventions encompass 'any action initiated by a pharmacist that directly results in patient management or a modification in medication.' The favourable clinical and economic impacts of interventions have been well-established for decades. Clinical pharmacists have played an important role in ensuring the effective and correct use of medicines in many settings. This study aims to investigate the clinical pharmacy services provided by clinical pharmacists to patients receiving antithrombotic therapy. For this study, patients were divided into two groups: a control group and an intervention group. A comprehensive medication review will be conducted by the clinical pharmacist for both the control and intervention groups. Drug-related problems such as drug selection, dose errors, possible drug-drug interactions, and inappropriate drug use, will be identified. In the control group, no interventions will be made by the clinical pharmacist. In the intervention group, solution recommendations for identified and clinically significant issues will be presented to the physician, and the provided services will be documented. Furthermore, the groups will be evaluated for whether there are any hospital readmissions within 1 and 3 months following discharge for the patients.
This study was planned to determine the mobilization process and factors affecting this process in patients who underwent open heart surgery and were admitted to the cardiovascular surgery intensive care unit.
The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using Virtual Reality Glasses, Kaleidoscope and Distraction Cards in reducing pain and anxiety during blood draw in children.
The goal of this pilot study is to test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the repetitive negative thinking (RNT) focused web-based self-help program in college students. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the program work without any help of a clinician? - Does the program have any reducing effect on the participants' RNT, depression, anxiety, stress and cognitive fusion scores? - Does the program help participants to improve their psychological flexibility and committed actions? Participants will be administered a set of questionnaires before and after completing the 10-day long web-based self-help program, provided on a daily basis. Researchers will compare the intervention group with a waitlist control group to assess for any potential placebo effect.
Cardiopulmonary bypass cause microcirculatory alterations. Near infrared spectroscopic measurement of tissue oxygen saturation and vascular occlusion test are novel technologies for assessing the microcirculatory function of peripheral tissue specifically in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass
Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of singing a lullaby with compassionate touch on early comfort and later on development of developmental support program in premature infants in the neonatal intensive care unit. H01: Singing a lullaby along with touching in the early stages of premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit has no effect on the comfort score of the babies. H02: Singing a lullaby along with touching to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the social emotional skills of premature babies. H03: Singing lullabies with touch to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the language skills of premature babies. H04: Singing a lullaby along with touching to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the cognitive skills of premature babies. H05: Singing a lullaby along with touching to premature babies in the neonatal intensive care unit in the early period and then applying a developmental support program has no effect on the motor skills of premature babies.
e-health literacy in athletes is very important. The aim of this study was to determine the level of e-health literacy in athletes and to examine the relationship between age, gender, sports branches and injury sites.
