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.
It has been suggested that veterans with chronic pain might be at increased risk for the development of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder. To date, most of the published studies have focused on chronic pain as a whole, and there are limited studies examining association of neuropathic pain with psychological comorbidity and quality of life.Combat related extremity injury significantly influences the patients' quality of life and psychological state. In this context, the purpose of this study is to illustrate to what extent neuropathic pain influences the quality of life, depression level and sleep quality of patients with combat-related extremity injury.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect on the first mobility of inside bed rotation and mobilization training to patients who will be lumbar disc surgery.
The purpose of our study is to assess the effect of lower limb sensory training on proprioception, balance, gait and motor functions in Hemiparetic Individuals.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate physical activity, exercise capacity, quality of life, cognitive status level and coronavirus phobia level of adult cystic fibrosis patients and compare with the findings of healthy subjects with teleconference during COVID-19 pandemic.
All over the world, spinal anesthesia is widely used in cesarean sections due to its superiority over general anesthesia. Due to reasons such as increased sensitivity to local anesthetics and increased intra-abdominal pressure in pregnant women, the frequency of hypotension increases by up to 70%. As a result of the blockage of sympathetic vasoconstrictor fibers originating from T1-L2 segments, loss of peripheral resistance, venous ponding occurs, and cardiac output decreases. Also, the level required for cesarean operation is T4 or T5, and the possibility of affecting the cardiac accelerator fibers, so bradycardia due to the increase in parasympathetic activity may deepen the hypotension. If postspinal hypotension is not managed correctly, it may lead to maternal and fetal complications. In addition to classical methods such as fluid loading and prophylactic vasoconstrictor application to prevent hypotension in pregnant women after spinal anesthesia, techniques such as wrapping the lower extremity, lifting, or applying both together have been in question. Passive leg raise application is an easy method that allows the blood collected in the lower part of the body to participate in the central circulation with the effect of gravity. An increase in venous return occurs with the passage of blood from the lower extremities to the thorax. Thus, it leads to an increase in stroke volume and an increase in cardiac output. In this study, we aimed to determine the effectiveness of passive leg raising in preventing or reducing the depth of hypotension after spinal anesthesia in pregnant women who underwent cesarean section under spinal anesthesia.
Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and death worldwide. Falling is defined as a person accidentally lying on a floor or another low level with or without injury. In patients with stroke occur motor, sensory, functional and cognitive disorders which are increased the rate of falls after stroke. Physiological and psychological complications that occur as a result of a fall are exhausting for both the patient and the therapist. Because while the patients regress physiologically even more, the 'fear of falling again', which occurs with falling, reduces the patient's participation in rehabilitation.When looking at the risk factors determined for falls in stroke patients, reduced mobility and impaired balance functions are in the first place and that is evidenced with most of falls occur during walking and transfers the most frequent.The main reason of affected mobility is the weakness in the deep trunk muscles and insufficient stability, except for the loss of strength in the affected lower extremity. In the literature, it is stated that having strong core muscles can contribute to the efficient use of the lower extremity. According to the previous studies, applied stabilization exercises in addition to traditional rehabilitation improve the balance and mobility functions of patients with subacute stroke. However, there is not enough information about the benefits of these exercises in patients with chronic stroke. Most falls occur at home specially in the bedroom and bathroom in patients with stroke. This indicates that environmental factors should be taken into consideration in the rehabilitation program besides physical factors, that is, a "multifactorial falls prevention program" should be implemented. Based on these information, the aim of our study is to investigate the benefits of core stabilization exercises which is included in a multifactorial training on falling number, fear of falling, lower extremity function and balance in patients with chronic stroke who have a history of falling.
The aim of this study is to evaluate whether spinal manipulation, which is a potential treatment method for musculoskeletal pain, has an additional contribution in patients with fibromyalgia receiving standard pharmacological treatment.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of lateralization on the spatio-temporal characteristics of gait in individuals with hemiparesis.
Caudal block is an easy and effective type of central neuraxial block that is widely used in subumbilical surgeries to provide intraoperative and postoperative analgesia in the pediatric population. Caudal block application with ultrasound (USG) was first applied in 2003. Sacrum, sacral cornular, sacrococcygeal ligament and sacral hiatus can be easily distinguished by ultrasound. The probe is positioned in a horizontal midline position on the lower sacrum. Sacral roots within the caudal epidural space can be seen as hypoechoic ellipses. In addition, anatomical variations of the sacral hiatus and the process area can be clearly observed. A accurate probe use with ultrasound guided is confirmed by advancing the caudal needle in the desired direction, widening in the sacral hiatus with local anesthetic injection, and the turbulence observed during injection into the sacral canal if the color doppler feature is used. Thus, a decrease in complications and an increase in the success of the procedure can be achieved with simultaneous imaging. In addition, in cases where the block is difficult, the in-plane technique can be preferred in the midline plane.The aim of this study is to compare the success rates and postoperative pain levels of caudal block applications with the out of plane technique (probe applied by holding horizontal) and in-plane technique (probe applied vertically), which is routinely applied with ultrasound in pediatric hypospadias surgery.
The main objective of this study is whether preloading before positioning would be effective for less hemodynamic instability. The study also analyzes that patients with preloading will decrease postoperative nausea and vomiting, better surgical satisfaction and shortened the duration of surgery and anesthesia.
