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.
Although many studies have shown an inverse relationship between blood glucose regulation and sleep hygiene, recommendations for improving sleep hygiene have not yet been included in diabetes treatment guidelines. In this study, it was aimed to reveal with a randomized controlled study whether training on sleep hygiene will have an effect on blood glucose regulation of Type 2 diabetes patients. Case and control groups will be formed by random sampling method. Pıttsburgh sleep quality index will be applied face to face and HbA1c values will be recorded for all patients included in the study. In addition, sleep hygiene training will be given to the case group. Among the patients included in the study, the second HbA1c levels of those who came for routine diabetes control within six months will be recorded and the sleep hygiene education compliance scale will be applied to the case group. Differences between groups will be evaluated using chi-square and Student's t tests. According to the results of the research, it will be tried to decide whether sleep hygiene education can be used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes patients.
The primary aim of this prospective and randomized trial is to investigate the effect of TEAS on postoperative recovery using the Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 questionnaire in patients undergoing elective cesarean section.
Rehabilitation status of children with cerebral palsy (CP) and anxiety of their caregivers during the covid19 pandemic were explored. 206 caregivers who voluntarily accepted to participate were administered the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and evaluated about the rehabilitation status of their children.The anxiety levels of all caregivers were found high and the rehabilitation programmes of the children were interrupted.
Primary purpose: To investigate the effect of propolis, a food supplement product, on healing parameters in patients with COVID 19. Secondary purpose: To provide a new supportive treatment in Covid 19 treatment. In the present study to examine the effect of the use of propolis on healing parameters (laboratory and imaging) in patients with COVID 19; Propolis, which has antiviral properties, has also been used in humans in the COVID19 pandemic as of 2020. However, in these studies, an alcohol-soluble extract of propolis was used. Despite the disadvantages of its use in alcohol, it is clear that water and olive oil extracts of Propolis are safer for humans. Therefore, water extracts of propolis will be used in the study.
This study aims to determine the effect of counseling on quality of life and self-care agency for patients who are scheduled for TKR.
The study was designed as a multicenter, prospective cross-sectional cohort study. The research population will consist of patients under the age of 40, diagnosed with endometriosis and/or adenomyosis and polycystic ovary syndrome, who applied to the obstetrics and gynecology outpatient clinics in 13 centers. According to the results of the sample size analysis, it was planned to terminate the study when 1225 patients with polycystic ovary syndrome and 1225 patients with endometriosis and/or adenomyosis were recruited.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of simulation training in nurses and midwives on knowledge and self-efficacy regarding preeclamptic pregnancy care. It is an important step in providing safe care to patients, as a learning environment is provided in which environmental risks are minimized with simulation applications. Simulation-based trainings are environments that allow each student to learn, equitable, based on adult learning principles, and open to different learning styles. The interests and needs in these environments are defined together by the learner and the educator. By keeping the experiences of the learner at the forefront, the opportunity is given to learn by doing and supported with feedback. Preeclampsia is clinically defined as a blood pressure of 140/90 mmHg or above after the 20th week of pregnancy and the addition of proteinuria (300mg / 24 hours). It can develop in about 5-10% of all pregnancies. It is defined as a nulliparous disease since it is seen in approximately 85% of women during their first pregnancy. Preeclampsia constitutes 15% of the causes of maternal mortality in our country. In studies evaluating the effectiveness of simulation training in planning the follow-up and care of preeclampsia, it was determined that this method increases the knowledge and self-confidence of nurses. For example; Christian and Krumwiede's study they found that the self-efficacy rates were significantly higher in the post-simulation test. In his study, Olubumno investigated the importance of simulation in increasing the critical thinking of perinatology nurses in the care of preeclamptic pregnant women, he found that the pre-test and post-test scores increased by 0.75 points, and this difference between the scores is statistically significant. Tabatabaeian et al., In their study comparing the effects of simulation-based education, coeducation and theoretical education on the performance of midwives in preeclampsia and eclampsia, found that the mean of the simulation group was higher than the other two groups. Preeclampsia is an important obstetric emergency in women's health and disease nursing. Thus, when they start working in the clinic, it is aimed to be able to suspect preeclampsia with the anamnesis they received from the pregnant who applied to them, and to gain them with the simulation method what they should pay attention to and how to do in the follow-up of the pregnant woman hospitalized with the diagnosis of preeclampsia. Studies conducted in our country did not include studies involving students and healthcare professionals in the management of preeclampsia with simulation methods. Therefore, it is aimed to contribute to the literature with this study.
Summary Purpose: Determining the Effect of Therapeutic Exercise and Thetahealing on Pain and Quality of Life in Patients with Fibromyalgia Methods: Between February and April 2021, the study started with 58 people who wanted to participate in the study from online platforms and the study was completed with 34 people. Findings: According to the power analysis, at least 34 people will participate in the study. Participants will be divided into 2 groups as experimental and control, thetahealing and exercise will be applied to the experimental group and only exercise sessions will be applied to the control group. The study will be 2 sessions of online group exercises per week for 6 weeks and 1 session of tehetahealing will be applied to the experimental group for 6 weeks. The evaluation will be carried out in the first week before the sessions start and in the last week after the sessions are completed in the form of an online survey.Summary Purpose: Determining the Effect of Therapeutic Exercise and Thetahealing on Pain and Quality of Life in Patients with Fibromyalgia Methods: Between February and April 2021, the study started with 58 people who wanted to participate in the study from online platforms and the study was completed with 34 people.

Background/objective: Bariatric surgery is often associated with moderate to severe pain. In obese individuals, opioids have the potential to induce ventilatory impairment; thus, opioid use needs to be limited. This study aimed to compare the novel ultrasound-guided erector spinalis plane block (ESPB) technique with controls in terms of intraoperative opioid consumption and postoperative pain control. Methods: A total of 63 patients with morbid obesity who underwent laparoscopic bariatric surgery were included in this randomized study. Patients were randomly assigned to the bilateral erector spina plane block (ESPB) group or the control group. To evaluate perioperative pain and to adjust opioid dose, analgesia nociception index (ANI) was monitored during surgery. Total opioid dose was recorded for each patient. In addition, pain was evaluated using visual analogue scale (VAS) scores for 24 hours following the operation.
Patients with left ventricular hypertrophy are further examined according to an algorithm to check if they have a cardiac amyloidosis
