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.
Individuals diagnosed with Subacromial Impingement Syndrome by a physical therapist based on MRI results and examination findings will be included in the study. 40 people will be randomly divided into blood flow restrictive exercise (BFRT) and structured exercise program (SEP) groups, 20 people in each group. Participants will receive two evaluations: before starting treatment and immediately after 4 weeks of treatment. Pain, shoulder ROM, shoulder functional level, quality of life, shoulder muscle strength, grip strength, and sleep quality evaluation will be performed. The treatment program will be 5 days a week for a total of 4 weeks. The treatment will be individualized by calculating the appropriate resistance loads for the exercise program. All participants will undergo progressive exercises in sessions conducted by a physiotherapist.
The attitude of the health personnel before, during and after the examination and the positive examination experience of the person have a significant impact on ensuring the continuity of the subsequent examination and increasing the quality of the service provided. The use of different clothes in the patient during the examination will ensure that the patient's physical privacy is ensured from the moment of application, during diagnosis and treatment, and that the examination experience will be positively affected by preventing the use of additional covers to protect the privacy of all patients during examination and intervention. This will contribute to the maintenance of health by eliminating the intense stress and embarrassment experienced by patients during the examination and ensuring that they regularly attend health checks. In addition, meeting the privacy expectations of the patients will ensure that they are satisfied with the health service they receive, thus increasing the quality of the health service provided. The attitude of the health personnel before, during and after the examination and the positive examination experience of the person have an important effect on ensuring the continuity of the subsequent examination and increasing the quality of the service provided. With the examination suit, it will be ensured that the patient's bodily privacy is ensured from the moment of application, during diagnosis, treatment and care, the use of the same cover to protect the privacy of all patients during examination and intervention will be prevented to prevent infection transmission and the examination experience will be positively affected. Thus, the intense stress and embarrassment experienced by patients during the examination will be eliminated and will contribute to the maintenance of health through regular visits to health checks. In addition, meeting the privacy expectations of patients will ensure that they are satisfied with the health service they receive, thus increasing the quality of the health service provided. In order to ensure patient privacy, to protect and improve women's health and to provide convenience in gynecological examination, the gynecological examination garment to be used in the examination can be designed as disposable, perineum and thigh open for the examination to be performed. In order to protect privacy, extra parts can be used to ensure that the open parts remain closed outside the examination process. Properties of the fabric used in the examination garment; - Grama: 32,07 g/m^2 - Explosion.: 135,77 kpç - Detachment: Ȼ: 115NȺ: 120 N - Air permeability: 1750 - Type of material: Polypropylene The study was carried out as a post-test control group design from randomised controlled studies. The intervention group of the study was dressed in gynaecological examination clothes, while the control group used the drape given to the patient during the examination, which is a routine practice in the health institution where the study was conducted.
Some changes in the patient's cognitive state are observed during the recovery period from general anesthesia. This period of behavioral dysregulation has been called emergence agitation (EA) and emergence delirium (ED). ED and EA occur in the early postoperative period (often within the first 30 minutes). The incidence of ED ranges from 10% to 80% in children and is described as a distressing clinical condition by 42% of pediatric anesthesiologists. Self-harm by the child increases the risk of delayed discharge and may increase the cost of medical care. Sevoflurane is a widely used agent for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia, but its use is associated with the occurrence of ED in the pediatric population. Clinical findings are characterized by hallucinations, struggling, restlessness, crying, and disorientation. In the literature, the Pediatric Anesthesia Rescue Delirium (PAED) Scale Score is used in the diagnosis of ED and EA. This score consists of 5 criteria (maximum score 20) scored using 0-4 point scales. These criteria; The child needs to make eye contact with the caregiver, the child's movements are purposeful, the child is aware of the environment, the child is restless/angry, the child cannot be consoled. While the sensitivity of ≥10 points for the diagnosis of ED is 64% and the specificity is 86%, the sensitivity of >12 points for the diagnosis of ED is 100% and the specificity is 94.5%. Monitoring intraoperative depth of anesthesia in the adult population has been recommended by the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) due to its potential benefits such as faster recovery time and lower drug dosage, as well as prevention of adverse effects such as the incidence of hypotension. The use of anesthesia depth monitors used so far for children is controversial because brain development in children has not yet been completed and the calculation algorithms of these indices are based on adult EEG characteristics. There are very few studies in the literature on the relationship between anesthesia depth monitoring and EA/ED in children, and further studies are needed.
The research was planned as a randomized controlled study to investigate the effect of breast milk smell and mother's smell applied while heel blood was taken to term babies in the Mersin City EAH Neonatal Intensive Care Unit between October and December 2023, on acute pain and crying duration. During the heel prick procedure, which is routinely performed in the neonatal intensive care unit, no pharmacological/non-pharmacological method will be applied to the control group to reduce the baby's pain before, during and after the heel prick. The baby's pain score will be evaluated by the observing nurse according to the NIPS pain scale 5 minutes before, during and 5 minutes after the procedure. In the study group that will be made to smell the mother's scent; The mother of each baby whose heel blood will be taken will be given a specially made cover made of 100% cotton yarn, sterilized the day before, and the mother will be asked to put the cover on her bare skin (on her bare skin) after the shower and to keep the cover on the mother's chest for one night (8 hours). It will be placed 15 cm away from the baby and smelled 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after the heel prick attempt. The baby's pain score will be evaluated by the observing nurse according to the NIPS pain scale 5 minutes before, during and 5 minutes after the procedure.
The study was conducted to determine the effect of Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) on perceived stress and general self-efficacy in obstetrics and gynecology nursing lesson in undergraduate nursing students with fear of birth. The samples were applied to undergraduate nursing students satisfying the research criteria in a state university nursing faculty in Konya at November 2022.
This study evaluated the clinical and biochemical aspects of flap design in dental implant applications regarding implantation success and patient comfort. In this split-mouth randomized controlled clinical trial, a vertical releasing incision was made at the distal end of the crestal incision on the test side, and the control side received a crestal incision alone. Sixty-eight implants were placed in 17 patients. Peri-implant groove fluid was collected on postsurgical days 3, 7, 30, and 90; OPG and RANKL levels were assessed to determine bone formation and resorption around the implants. Cortisol levels were assessed in peri-implant groove fluid at postsurgical days 3, 7, and 14. Visual analog scale (VAS), and swelling measurements were taken postoperatively. Panoramic and periapical X-rays were obtained immediately post-surgery and at 3 months. No significant marginal bone loss difference was observed between the test and control sides at 3 months. The RANKL/OPG ratio, cortisol levels, VAS scores, and swelling scores were higher in the test vs. control sides. Overall, while the use of a vertical incision has advantages, such as increasing the visual field of the surgeon and improving the ease of the operation, this approach should be used only when necessary, given the disadvantages of increased bone resorption mediators in the peri-implant tissue and reduced postoperative patient comfort.
The aim was to examine the relationship between home literacy of parents whose has children who use cohlear implant and family demographic characteristics and phonological awareness skills of children with cochlear implant.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in the effect of different lifestyle interventions in overweight and obese participants. The main questions it aims to answer are: - effect on anthropometric measurements - effect on lipid profile - effect on weight-related quality of life - observe the differences between interventions The study participants were stratified into three groups: intervention, control-1, and control-2. - Intervention group: They were given a calorie-restricted diet and exercise plan by a dietician or physiotherapist at their first visit, and were followed up by telephone calls at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 over 12 weeks. - Control-1 group: During the initial medical interview, the participants were given a calorie-restricted diet programme by a dietician and an exercise programme by a physiotherapist; they were followed up over 12 weeks with telephone calls at week 4. - Control-2 group: The participants were not provided with any programme, and the importance of weight loss was emphasised by the family physicians. Dietary and physical activity advice was given according to the recommendations in the Turkish Endocrine and Metabolism Association 2019 Obesity Diagnosis and Treatment Guide, and was followed up with phone calls at weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 over a 12-weeks.
The aim of our study is to investigate the relationship between cervical proprioception and cervical muscle endurance with hand-eye coordination and postural control in individuals with forward head posture (FHP) and to compare them with a control group with normal head posture. After the demographic information and physical characteristics of the individuals are recorded, their craniovertebral angles (CVA) will be measured and they will be assigned to Group 1 (forward head posture) or Group 2 (normal head posture). Then, the individuals' cervical proprioception, hand-eye coordination, postural control and cervical muscle endurance values will be measured respectively. Cervical muscle endurance will be evaluated last, taking into account possible muscle fatigue, in order not to affect other measurement results. The recorded values will be compared between groups and the relationship of cervical proprioception and muscle endurance with hand-eye coordination and postural control will be examined. All evaluations will be made by the same researcher.
Patients applied to the anesthesia clinics of Health Science University Istanbul Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital and Basaksehir Cam and Sakura City Hospital were included in the study. Evaluation forms which will be filled in every preoperative examinations will be saved in the hospitals systems. Patients datas without indentification informations will be asked to ChatGpt to give anesthesiological risc scores. This scores will be compared with the scores already given by anesthesiologists.
