This study, which is designed according to the experimental model with randomized pre-test and post-test control group, will be carried out with Roman women who apply to Yavuz Selim Family Health Center in Samsun province, Canik district, where Roma citizens are densely registered.The population of the study consists of Roma women aged 30-65 who are registered to Yavuz Selim Family Health Center in Canik district of Samsun province. The working group will be composed of 80 Roma women who meet the selection criteria. The turkey in cervical cancer screening taking rate is 50% and 17% to 5% error when Roman population was identified as sample size 62 with power 80%.Since the study will consist of experiment and control groups, each group will be determined as 31 people, and 9 backups will be taken, considering that there may be losses. As a result, the research will be conducted as 40 people in the experimental group and 40 people in the control group.A personal questionnaire prepared by the researcher in line with the literature, Cervical Cancer and Pap Smear Test Health Belief Model Scale will be applied to the Roma women who apply to Yavuz Selim Family Health Center and who have accepted to participate in the study by explaining the purpose of the research and those who accept to participate in the study. Roma women who are pre-tested will be randomly assigned to the sample pool to be divided into experimental and control groups. Roman women will be divided into experimental and control groups by Simple Random Method.A 4-week training program will be applied to the experimental group. Afterwards, 2 weeks of training will be done through music. At the end of the training, a focus group discussion will be held with the participants in the experimental group regarding their educational experiences, learning experiences for cervical cancer and screening and program outcomes.A personal questionnaire, Cervical Cancer and Pap Smear Test Health Belief Model Scale will be applied to the experimental and control groups as a final test.
In the study, the investigators aimed to investigate the effects of myofascial release method on pain, functionality and quality of life in individuals with adhesive capsulitis. 42 individuals willing to participate in the study will be included. Participants will be randomly divided into two groups, the conventional group and the myofascial release group. Evaluations will be made by another physiotherapist with a single eye blindness. Hotpack, TENS, ultrasound and exercise will be applied jointly to both groups in the study. In addition to the myofascial release group, myofascial release will be applied on the subscapularis and serratus anterior muscles. Individuals will be asked to come to the center where the research will be conducted for a total of fifteen sessions for three weeks, five times a week. Myofascial release will be done in the first five sessions of treatment programs. Participants' pain before the first treatment, at the end of the 5th treatment and after the 15th treatment with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), shoulder joint range of motion (ROM) with Goniometer, upper extremity functionality level Arm, Shoulder and Hand Problems Questionnaire (DASH) specific shoulder pain and functions will be evaluated with the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI), sleep quality with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and quality of life with Short Form-36 (SF-36). Statistical analysis to be used in the investigators study will be made with the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 20.0 package program.
Brachial plexus blocks used for anesthesia in upper extremity operations can be performed with interscalene, axillary, supraclavicular and infraclavicular approaches. Plexus blockage can be performed under the guidance of needle nerve stimulation, artery palpation or ultrasonography (USG). Nowadays, the simultaneous use of USG during the block allows the protection of structures such as nerves, pleura and vessels, and allows practitioners to see the needle and the spread of local anesthetic during the injection. Although supraclavicular block seems to be advantageous because the brachial plexus is more compact and superficial in this region, it has a disadvantage of being close to the pleura. (Increased risk of pneumothorax) With the use of USG, this risk has decreased and the supraclavicular block has become an alternative to infraclavicular block, which is widely used in upper extremity surgery. Due to the compact structure of the brachial plexus trunk at the first rib level, the application of the block is easier and the block formation is faster due to the peripheral spread of the local anesthetic. With the spread of local anesthetic to C3-C5 nerve roots in the brachial plexus, paralysis can be seen in the ipsilateral phrenic nerve up to 67%. Patients who will be operated on, especially in patients with respiratory distress, may experience respiratory distress due to the dysfunction of that side diaphragm muscle. With the help of ultrasound, the inspiratory and end-expiratory thickness of the diaphragm is measured with the Diaphragm Thickness Index (DTI), which is a new and effective method used as a mechanical ventilator weaning index in intensive care units. With this method, we can examine the effect of phrenic nerve block on diaphragm muscle due to local anesthesia in the acute period. DTI is calculated as a percentage from the following formula: (Max thickness at the end of inspiration - Max thickness at the end of the expiration) / Max thickness at the end of the expiration. By comparing 3 different approaches used in supraclavicular block, we aimed to investigate the most appropriate block approach in terms of effectiveness, speed, complication rate, effects on diaphragm and 6 months effects.
This study was conducted with a randomized controlled experimental design to determine the effect of virtual reality headset on children's fear and anxiety during vaccinations. Research Hypotheses: Hypothesis 0a (H0a): There is no difference in fear scores between the experimental group in which virtual reality glasses were used during vaccination administration and the control group. Hypothesis 1a (H1a): There is a difference in fear scores between the experimental group in which virtual reality glasses were used during vaccination administration and the control group. Hypothesis 0b (H0b): There is no difference in anxiety scores between the experimental group in which virtual reality glasses were used during vaccination administration and the control group. Hypothesis 1b (H1b): There is a difference in anxiety scores experienced between the experimental group in which virtual reality glasses were used during vaccination administration and the control group.
This study is to investigate the effect of Core stability training on pain, function, quality of life, sleep quality, body posture, foot posture, oral habits and kinesiophobia in individuals with temporomandibular disorder. Materials and Methods: The study included 40 people over the age of 18, who were diagnosed with temporomandibular disorder from the dentist.
It was to compare the effect of low-load resistance training with blood flow restriction (LL-BFR) and high-intensity resistance training (HI-RT) on muscle strength, endurance and volume, functional performance, and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). The study included 13 young women. It is a controlled study designed for individuals to perform two different exercise protocols unilaterally. The persons were randomly allocated into two groups as LI- BFR (Group I, n = 13) and HI-RT (Group II, n = 13). Both groups received training for 6 weeks and 3 days a week. Blood flow restriction was performed only in group I.
Physical activity levels of adult hematologic cancer patients are deficient. The resulting physical inactivity causes fatigue, muscle loss, and deterioration in physical performance values. However, physical exercise programs still play a minor role in treating hematological malignancies. In addition, there are no reliable data in the literature regarding risk factors, feasibility, and exercise results in individuals with hematological malignancies. Although it is known that the use of corticosteroids, which are among the drugs given during chemotherapy, causes muscle weakness, there are no physical exercise programs performed with this patient group in the literature. The current study aims to compare the effects of resistance exercise and resistance exercise combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on muscle strength, functional lower extremity strength, and mobility in hematological cancer patients during chemotherapy.
Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) (18 degree) without cerebral perfusion is a safe technique. Resarchers use this technique in patients with proximal aortic pathologies. During the DHCA period, cerebral silent ischemic events may occur. But the silent ischemic events don't neurological problems with patients.
The number of people having chronic diseases and the demand for palliative care has increased. The factors that have an impact on length of stay and discharge of patient who were admitted to palliative care center will be investigated.
