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.
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a disease that affects the functional skills of the upper extremity with clinical findings such as bradykinesia, rigidity, and hypokinesia and causes limitations in the daily life activities of the patients. Task-oriented training (TOT) is a highly individualized, client-centered, occupational therapy, functional-based intervention compatible with motor learning and motor control principles such as intensive motor training, variable practice, and intermittent feedback. Few studies have been found on the TOT of the upper extremity in PD. Telerehabilitation of Parkinson's patients shows many strengths, such as cost-related and time-dependent ease, and the possibility of telecommunication with clinicians. In addition, the refinement of digital health solutions with the goal to offer a patient-tailored intervention remains an ongoing process. There are a limited number of studies on TOT and telerehabilitation of the upper extremity in PD. In addition, no studies have been found applying TOT through telerehabilitation. For this purpose, a study including TOT-based telerehabilitation in upper extremity education in PD was planned.
In pediatric surgical patients, the sensitivity of forehead and finger PVI monitoring was similar for the prediction of fluid responsiveness, whereas the specificity of forehead monitoring was higher. The use of forehead PVI probes in the fluid management of these patients seemed to be appropriate because cephalic region was not affected by low perfusion states.
Obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is defined as a combination of obesity [body mass index (BMI) ≥30 kg/m2], chronic daytime hypercapnia (PaCO2 >45 mm Hg), and sleep-apnea in the absence of other known causes of hypercapnia. Respiratory system compliance decreases and resistance increases in OHS. This causes increase in work of breathing and oxygen cost of breathing, which may result in respiratory muscle fatigue. Increase in respiratory workload and increase in resistance to respiration is expected to decrease in respiratory muscle endurance (RME) in subjects with OHS.
ABSTRACT Objective: To test the effect of the Premature Infant Oral Motor Intervention (PIOMI) at 29-30 weeks post-menstrual age on the development of oral-motor function and sucking capacity. Study Design: This study was a single-blind randomized controlled experimental design. The sample consisted of 60 preterm babies from two Neonatal Intensive Care Units in Gaziantep, Turkey between May 2019 and March 2020, with 30 each in the control and experimental groups. The PIOMI was applied to the experimental group for five minutes a day for 14 consecutive days. Sucking capacity, growth, feeding outcomes, and length of hospital stay (LOS) were measured. The Yakut Manometer Measuring Suction Power (PCT/TR2019/050678) was developed specifically for this study and tested for the first time.
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a chronic rheumatic disease characterized by a wide range of symptoms such as widespread muscle pain, fatigue, sleep disturbances, anxiety-depression, impaired balance, falling risk, poor physical condition, cognitive dysfunction, and irritable bowel syndrome. The aim of the study; It is a comparison of the effectiveness of aerobic exercises and postural stabilization exercises that are structured to reduce the pain severity, fatigue, sleep problems and anxiety-depression levels of patients who are being followed up with a diagnosis of FMS, and to increase the duration of physical activity and quality of life.
In study, the researchers examine the effectiveness of digital-based exercises in patients with chronic neck pain.The planned study has 2 main objectives: - Increase exercise adherence with mhealth apps. - To reduce pain and disability of patients with chronic neck pain.
This study aimed to investigate if the functional capacity of health workers sustained covid 19 infection effects functional capacity , quality of life and mood of health workers when comparing healthy health workers.
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) performed for developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a technically difficult procedure with a high complication rate, especially in the presence of completely dislocated hips. This study aimed to evaluate the results of at least 10 years of follow-up results of cementless, ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) total hip arthroplasty performed with transverse subtrochanteric osteotomy in Crowe type 4 hips.
CABG (coronary artery bypass graft) surgery is among the most common heart surgeries performed in the heart pump. In CABG surgery, operations performed on the beating heart without the use of CPB (off-pump) are frequently performed (30-60%) (1). To the best of our knowledge, there has been no study examining cerebral oxygenation values, oxidative stress levels and postoperative results in CABG operations.
The effects of balanced posture and postural changes have been evaluated in specific populations with different factors that can affect body postures and balance, such as age, musculoskeletal system, and other metabolic diseases. Studies on postural kyphosis and balance involvement are very few in the literature especially in the health population. Of the few studies that have evaluated kyphosis and balance, most are limited by small sample size and the exclusion of men. Many have focused primarily on the geriatric population. The determination that the effect of thoracic kyphosis posture on trunk biomechanical alignment may be related to balance may contribute to new treatment recommendations in this area. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the thoracic kyphosis posture has an effect on static balance.
