Surgical interventions are not only a physiological trauma, but also a psychological and social trauma because they cause deterioration of the individual's comfort. Comfort is among the most basic human needs and provides a better care output. One of the conditions that cause deterioration of comfort and anxiety in patients is hunger and thirst before surgery. Since 1994, several guides published by professional groups in many countries on pre-operative fasting periods have published that clear liquids can be taken up to 2 hours before the surgery in elective surgeries, and solid foods can be taken up to 6 hours before the surgery. One of the basic principles of ERAS protocols, which include evidence-based care interventions applied at all stages of the surgical process, for the preoperative period is to ensure that the patient takes a carbohydrate drink up to two hours before anesthesia and to shorten the long fasting period. In many countries, the problems experienced by patients as a result of long-term hunger have been identified. When the comfort status of the patients who were given carbohydrate-rich drinks before the surgery was examined, it was observed that the symptoms such as thirst, hunger, insufficiency, fatigue, nausea, pain, anxiety and depression were reduced and oral carbohydrate solutions were recommended. In the literature, it is stated that the prolongation of the fasting period causes an increase in the anxiety of the person and negatively affects his comfort, and it is recommended to drink 800 ml of carbohydrate liquid food until midnight the day before the surgery and 400 ml of liquid carbohydrate food 2-3 hours before the surgery in order to provide metabolic satiety. The nurse, who is one of the health workers responsible for the care of the patient, has to manage the restriction of oral food and liquid intake and the comfort of the patient in the best way before the operation. Accordingly, in our study, the answers were sought whether the oral carbohydrate solution given before hip arthroplasty had an effect on anxiety and patient comfort.
The Activity Diversity Questionnaire (ADQ) was developed to assess activity diversity. The questionnaire consists of 20 items rated on a four-point Likert scale. This questionnaire defines activity diversity using Shannon's entropy and is the first assessment tool of activity diversity validated for validity and reliability. Important data can be obtained from this questionnaire, such as the relationship between the health status of older adults and their activity diversity. There is no scale in Turkish that can be used to evaluate the activity diversity. The aim of our study was to investigate the relevance of the Activity Diversity Questionnaire for Turkish older adults and the effectiveness of its clinical use.
Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility, and balance in individuals after mild COVID-19 infection and compare them with healthy individuals. Methods: A total of 118 individuals, 59 individuals between the ages of 18-30 who had COVID-19 (not vaccinated) and 59 individuals who did not, will be included in the study. Lower and upper extremity muscle strength, flexibility, and static and dynamic balances of the individuals will be evaluated and compared with the control group. The descriptive characteristics of the individuals will be recorded. The physical activity level of the individuals will be determined by the Short Form of International Physical Activity Questionnaire. The strength of knee extension and elbow flexion will be evaluated with a dynamometer, and functional trunk strength will be evaluated with sit-ups and push-ups tests. Lateral bridge test, modified Biering-Sorensen test, trunk flexors endurance test, and prone bridge test will be used to evaluate muscle endurance. Participants will perform sit and reach test and back scratch test for flexibility. The one-leg stance test and the functional reach test will be used to evaluate static and dynamic balance. The level of fatigue experienced by individuals during walking and running will score according to the Modified Borg Scale. Results: The SPSS for Windows 19.0 (IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Armonk, NY: IBM Corp.) will be used for data analysis. The data will be expressed as mean standard deviation (x±SD) and percentage (n%). The homogeneity of the groups will be evaluated with the Levene Test. Between groups, muscle strength, flexibility, and balance values will be compared using the "Mann Whitney-U" Test. The statistical significance level will be accepted as a p <0.05 value. Conclusion: The researchers will discuss the results in light of the recent literature.

This study is researching a clinical treatment combination with two experimental drugs called pozelimab and cemdisiran. The study is focused on patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). The aim of the study is to see how safe and effective the pozelimab + cemdisiran combination is for patients with PNH and how the combination compares with 2 existing treatments, one called ravulizumab and the other called eculizumab. The pozelimab + cemdisiran combination may be referred to as "study drugs". Ravulizumab and eculizumab may also be called the "comparator drug". The study is looking at several research questions, including: - How effective is the pozelimab + cemdisiran combination compared to ravulizumab? - How effective is pozelimab + cemdisiran combination compared to eculizumab? - What side effects may happen from taking the study drugs? - How much study drugs are in the blood at different times? - Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drugs (which could make the study drugs less effective or could lead to side effects)
In thoracic surgery, one-lung ventilation using a double-lumen tube (DLT) is often performed to protect dependent lung and provide comfortable surgical conditions. However, serious complications and adverse events can be encountered during DLT placement. One of the most important steps to avoid these drawbacks is to choose the appropriate size of DLT. The width of the trachea can be measured by using different imaging methods such as computed tomography (CT) and ultrasonography (US) to predict the appropriate DLT size. CT can also contribute to the proper placement of DLT by giving us the length of the trachea and main bronchi. In this study, we hypothesized that the size of the DLT can be determined more accurately by measuring the trachea diameter by using US and CT before DLT intubation. At the same time, we aimed to determine whether the evaluation of tracheobronchial anatomy with CT would contribute to the placement of DLT at a more appropriate level.

Sensory dysfunction following stroke is a common condition. The deficiency in the somatosensory system negatively affects the learning of new motor skills by preventing feedback from the sensory system, and it can also cause problems in daily life, personal care, productivity, and leisure activities. Somatosensory impairment is often overlooked, as rehabilitation often focuses on motor abilities in the affected extremity. In the studies reviewed, it is stated that sensory dysfunction is seen in approximately 50% of stroke patients. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of intensified sensory-based therapy applied to the affected upper extremity sensory functions in individuals with chronic stroke on the upper extremity functions, quality of life, and independence of daily living activities.
