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.
Although low-flow anaesthesia (LFA) has been described for many years and its benefits are known, its clinical use has been limited. Concerns about the risk of hypoxia contributed to this situation. Although the risk of hypoxia is almost prevented with advanced anaesthesia machines, the use of LFA has not reached the desired levels. However, in recent years, as adverse developments related to climate change have started to affect us all, LFA has started to be on the agenda of anaesthetists again. In this study, our aim is to examine the feasibility of its clinical use in order to popularise the use of LFA.
This study is planned to evaluate the effect of back-to-school adaptation programme on social anxiety score, coping score and back-to-school readiness score in children aged 8-17 years who are followed up with a diagnosis of cancer. H1: Is there a significant difference in children's social anxiety scores before and after the back-to-school adaptation programme? H2: Is there a significant difference in children's coping scores before and after the back-to-school adaptation programme? H3: Is there a significant difference in children's readiness to return to school scores before and after the back-to-school adaptation programme?
This randomised controlled study evaluates the effect of a training programme based on the Health Promotion Model developed for parents of children diagnosed with epilepsy on parents' level of knowledge about epilepsy, parents' general self-efficacy level, parents' health promoting and protective behaviours and the number of hospital admissions of their children. The hypothesis of this study is that education has an effect on these.
The study aims to examine the effects of balance exercises applied with different visual stimuli on individuals with MS.
Stress is defined as hormonal and metabolic changes in the biological system that follow any injury. The stress response occurs as a general systemic response to injury and includes a wide range of endocrinological, immunological and hematological effects. The level of stress in the surgical process can affect not only the patients outcome but also the overall health system. The two main agents used in maintenance for general anesthesia are inhalation and intravenous anesthetics. Both inhalation anesthesia and TIVA (Total Intravenous Anesthesia) approaches provide general anesthesia suitable for surgical operations. However, the mechanisms of action of these two methods differ and are not fully understood. The aim of investigators' for this study was to investigate the effect of different anesthetic agents on stress inflammatory response in the preoperative, peroperative and postoperative periods.
Our study aimed to investigate the effects of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (TAVNS) application on treatment efficacy in bruxism in terms of masseter muscle activity, pain, stress level, sleep and life quality, and autonomic functions.
This is a clinical study to see if dusquetide can treat flares of oral and genital ulcers caused by Behcet's Disease. Study participants will receive an infusion of dusquetide twice a week for 4 weeks (8 treatments total), with weekly follow-up visits for an additional 4 weeks.
The investigators conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study based on the placebo technique to evaluate the efficacy of TTNS versus placebo in patients with OAB after stroke. The main questions aimed to be answered are: What are the effects of Trans Tibial Nerve Stimulation (TTNS) on incontinence-related clinical parameters and quality of life in patients with overactive bladder (OAB) after stroke compared to the placebo group? Participants (n:22) with post-stroke AAM who meet the exclusion and inclusion criteria will be divided into 2 groups using a randomization table. The first group will receive TTNS (n:11) and the second group will receive placebo TTNS (n:11). Measurements will be performed twice in total, before treatment and at the end of treatment (4th week).
Stomas are most commonly used in the gastrointestinal tract as ileostomy or colostomy. Although colorectal cancers are the most important factor causing intestinal stoma opening, intestinal ostomies are also used in cases such as congenital anomalies, obstructive or inflammatory bowel diseases, traumas requiring surgery, large defects caused by colorectal injuries as well as sigmoid colon volvulus and ischemic colitis. In stoma surgery performed to increase the duration and quality of life of individuals, the patient's compliance with the stoma and awareness of possible complications are important. Conditions such as peristomal skin problems, noisy bowel movements, stool leakage and pain make it difficult to adapt to the stoma.In addition, despite all the advances in stoma care products and surgical techniques, individuals are faced with stoma complications. Therefore, individuals with stoma should be closely monitored for complications. Inappropriately selected stoma site or bag/adapter system, lack of knowledge and skills related to stoma care can be listed among the possible causes of complications. Complications such as edema, bleeding, ischemia and mucocutaneous separation may develop in the first days after stoma surgery. In studies evaluating patients in terms of stoma compliance and complications in the literature, it has been observed that mobile-based trainings given to patients increase their stoma compliance and reduce the incidence of complications. With the mobile-based training planned to be used in the study, it is thought to contribute to the ability of individuals to perform stoma care independently. With the decrease in peristomal skin lesions and stoma complications, it is predicted that the quality of life of patients with stoma will increase, self-care competence will be formed, and health expenditures and therefore national health expenditures will decrease. It is thought that this mobile training application will not only provide support to patients with stoma but also guide healthcare professionals. It will also contribute to closing the shortage of stoma and wound care nurses in hospitals.
The aim of the study was to examine the effects of the emotional freedom technique and virtual reality glasses applied to individuals receiving hyperbaric oxygen therapy for the first time on anxiety and vital signs. The hypotheses of this research are that there is a difference between the emotional liberation technique and virtual reality glasses groups and the control group in terms of anxiety and vital signs.
