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.
The present study was planned to compare the effect of products, used in the fixation of nasogastric tube, on skin integrity of 4-6 weeks infants hospitalized at neonatal and infant units. The hypothesis of the study is "Water-based barrier tape is more effective to protect skin integrity than hydrocolloid barrier tape."
The aim of the study is to investigate effects of structured exergame program on upper extremity functions and trunk control in children with Cerebral Palsy (SP). A 3 phase randomized controlled trial has planned to conduct. In the first phase, baseline assessments will be completed for all participants who are eligible to participate. After the baseline assessments, randomisation will be completed for Exergame and Activity Based Exercise groups. During this phase suitable video games for exergame program will be selected. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) will be used to collect expert opinion for most effective video games for upper extremity functionality, postural control, GMFCS I-II-III levels. Second phase of the study will be started afterwards. Upon completing second assessments, interventions for both groups will be conducted. Third assessments will be completed after interventions and outcomes will be analyzed for primary results. The third phase of the study planned as follow-up period. All participant will continue their routine NDT trainings and follow-up assessments will be completed after 3 moths of the second assessments. Final results will be analysed for all participants.
80 participants studying in the physiotherapy technician department were included in this cross-sectional study. Participants' age, gender, year of being a student, the people they live with, the precautions they take regarding COVID-19, whether there is a history of COVID-19 in them or their immediate surroundings, and whether they have COVID-19 transmission and / or contagion fears during their vocational training, whether there are fears of achieving professional goals and competence because of COVID-19 and / or its consequences were recorded. Afterwards, the participants were asked to answer the questions on the coronavirus anxiety scale, the fear of COVID-19 scale and the cognitive and behavioral avoidance subscales of the Avoidance Attitudes from COVID-19 scale.
Fatigue is a common clinical finding in Primary Sjögren's syndrome (PSS). In PSS, there is not enough data about the conditions in which fatigue develops and which clinical conditions the disease is associated with. This study was aimed to determine the level of fatigue in Primary Sjögren syndrome and to investigate the factors affecting the level of fatigue.
In children with cerebral palsy, the interactions of the sensory systems, musculoskaletal system and central nervous system are damaged. This situation plays an important role in the realization of trunk control and upper extremity functions.When we look at the literature, it was seen that upper extremity functions were associated with trunk control and oscillation, and it was observed that upper extremity functions were improved in cases with increased trunk control and balance.In the studies, it was concluded that increasing the trunk control improves the static and dynamic balance.Ayres introduced the theory of sensory integrity in the 1970s and defined sensory integration as "the neurological process that organizes the senses coming from the person's body and the environment and makes it possible to use the body effectively in the environment".Sensory integration disorder is defined as the inability of a person to use the information he / she receives through his / her senses properly in order to continue his daily life properly.The incidence of sensory integration disorder in children with motor dysfunction such as cerebral palsy and central nervous system involvement is between 40 and 80%.In children with cerebral palsy, due to central nervous system damage, posture problems, lack of movement and functional deficiencies, sensory problems that can cause balance losses can be seen. When we look at the literature, it has been seen that there are studies on balance, trunk control and upper extremity functions in children with cerebral palsy, but among these studies, the inadequacy of studies that associate balance disorders and trunk control with sensory integration therapy was observed.In this study, the effects of sensory integration therapy on balance, trunk control and upper extremity functions in children with cerebral palsy will be investigated.Pediatric Balance Scale, Trunk Control Measurement Scale, Upper Extremity Skill Quality Scale will be used for balance assessment of individuals with cerebral palsy participating in the study.The study was planned as a single blind randomized control.Participants will be randomly divided into two groups, the control group will be given balance exercises that are included in the standard physiotherapy program, and the experimental group will be given sensory integration exercises for the vestibular system in addition to standard physiotherapy programs.The treatment program to be applied to both experimental and control groups will be carried out by a physiotherapist who has 7 years of experience in pediatric physiotherapy and has 6 years of active sensory integration therapy.Evaluations will be evaluated 3 times by a blinded physiotherapist experienced in the field of pediatrics before, after treatment and 8 weeks after the late period effects.
The Telehealth Usability Questionnaire (TUQ) was developed to evaluate the usability of telehealth applications and services. The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale, originally in English, has not been conducted before. The aim of this study is to develop the Turkish version of the Telehealth Usability Questionnaire (TUQ), which is a new stability tool, and to report its reliability assessment.
The Turkish validity and reliability of the scale, which was created to evaluate the satisfaction of individuals, caregivers, and coordinator providing telerehabilitation services within the scope of telehealth, will be investigated.
The aim of this study is to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Sitting Balance Scale in stroke patients.
Exercise training that is one of the effective treatment methods for cervical pain, is crucial in developing mobility and stability. Exercise training significantly reduces cervical pain as it advances postural alignment and neuromuscular coordination. In many single group studies on cervical pain in violin performers, it has been reported that the stabilization exercises have favorable consequences on pain relief and postural correction. But, there are no studies comparing ney and violin performers and analyzing the effectiveness of exercise training on non-specific cervical pain. The aim of this study is to search the effects of selected exercise training on pain, disability, range of motion, flexibility, strength and quality of life in ney and violin performers with non-specific cervical pain.
This is a multi-country, multi-centre, retrospective, non-interventional cohort study planned to include patients diagnosed with mCRPC between 01 January 2016 and 31 December 2018, who have received at least 1 line of treatment (LOT) in the mCRPC setting, and have 12 months of follow-up data available.
