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 study was designed as a retrospective, parallel, two years longitudinal pilot trial. Twenty-eight patients (mean age: 48.34 ± 6.06) aged between 35 and 60 years and 66 TiUnite surfaces (Nobel Biocare Parallel Conical Connection), bone level dental implant were included in the study. The implants were divided into two different groups according to the NPIs and regular platform implants(RPIs). The mean implant lengths, plaque index(PI), gingival index(GI), periodontal pocket depth(PD), gingival recession(GR), keratinized gingival width(KGW) and bleeding on probing(BOP) values were recorded. The Student's t-test used for between-group comparison.
It is aimed to objectively demonstrate and compare the effectiveness of aerobic and resistant exercises performed on female patients with rheumatoid arthritis with sonographic muscle measurements. In addition, it is planned to compare the effects of 2 group exercises on functional status, quality of life and body composition and to show its correlation with sonographic measurements. There are 3 groups in total in the study. These are the control group given only the range of motion exercise, the second group given the range of motion and resistance exercise, and the third group given the range of motion and aerobic exercise. Exercise programs will last 12 weeks and it is planned to exercise 3 days a week.
Stroke affects the vital activities of daily living such as breathing and swallowing. After stroke excursion of the diaphragm reduces about 50%, and also the maximum expiratory pressure of the individual 50% or higher. Dysphagia occurs in 29% to 45% of the acute stroke cases.
Low cardiorespiratory fitness is related cardiovascular and total mortality. In addition, disease risk is increased with low cardiorespiratory fitness. There is strong evidence that physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with health variables in healthy individuals. Pilates exercises, which are the subgroups of physical activity, has become popular in recent years. Current evidence suggests that Pilates training improves body composition, respiratory muscle strength, exercise performance and quality of life. In addition to these benefits, recent evidence suggests that Pilates training can improve cardiorespiratory fitness. However, there is lack of evidence on whether practicing Pilates exercises satisfy recommendations for intensity of physical activity which improves and maintains health and cardiovascular fitness. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the cardiorespiratory responses during a Pilates training session, by measuring cardiorespiratory fitness through oxygen consumption and energy expenditure. The secondary aim of this study is to compare the cardiorespiratory responses during Pilates training session and treadmill walking at different speeds (3.2 kmh and 4.8 kmh). First, resting metabolic rate will be measured. Then, the participants will be randomized to one of the two possible experimental conditions: (1) Pilates training session than treadmill walking or (2) treadmill walking than Pilates training session. Pilates session will consist of warm-up exercises (e.g. breathing, arm circle, cat and camel spinal rotation etc.) and basic mat exercises (e.g. one leg stretching, double leg stretching, the hundred, saw, rolling like a ball, swimming, pelvic curl etc.). The Pilates session will be presented to the participants via recorded video. Participants will walk on treadmill at two different speeds: 3.2 kph (2 mph) and 4.8 kph (3 mph). Participants initially will walk at pace of 3.2 kph for 10 minutes. After 30-40 minutes- rest (after returning baseline values), participants will walk on at pace of 4.8 kph for 10 minutes.
During mechanical ventilation (MV) hypoxemic or hyperoxemic events should be carefully monitored and a quick response should be provided by the caregiver at the bedside. Pediatric mechanical ventilation consensus conference (PEMVECC) guidelines suggest to measure SpO2 in all ventilated children and furthermore to measure partial arterial oxygen pressure (PaO2) in moderate-to-severe disease. There were no predefined upper and lower limits for oxygenation in pediatric guidelines, however, Pediatric acute lung injury consensus conference PALICC guidelines proposed SpO2 between 92 - 97% when positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is smaller than 10 cm H2O and SpO2 of 88 - 92% when PEEP is bigger or equal to 10 cm H2O. [1] For healthy lung, PEMVECC proposed the SpO2>95% when breathing a FiO2 of 21%.[2] As a rule of thumb, the minimum fraction of inspired O2 (FiO2) to reach these targets should be used. A recent Meta-analyze showed that automated FiO2 adjustment provides a significant improvement of time in target saturations, reduces periods of hyperoxia, and severe hypoxia in preterm infants on positive pressure respiratory support. [3] This study aims to compare the closed-loop FiO2 controller with conventional control of FiO2 during mechanical ventilation of pediatric patients
In this study, providing access to physiotherapy applications by telerehabilitation method and the effectiveness of this application will be examined for patients who have undergone lung surgery in the early postoperative period during the pandemic process in which social isolation continues.
Objective: This randomized controlled study aims to examine whether the education program prepared to prevent shaken baby syndrome has an effect on mothers' knowledge and attitudes. Method: Simple randomization will be used to evaluate the intervention and control groups. The study will be carried out with 90 mothers babies of 2-4 months, who applied to Akdeniz University Hospital Healthy Child Outpatient Clinic (intervention group: 45, control group: 45). After the pre-test, the mothers in the intervention group will be trained and a booklet will be given. Tele-consultancy service will be provided to mothers during the 2-month follow-up period. After 2 months of follow-up, a post-test will be applied to the mothers in the intervention group. The mothers in the control group will not be intervened after the pretest is applied. A post test will be applied 2 months after the pre-test. After the post-test, the mothers in the control group will be trained and a booklet will be given. Ethics committee approval and institutional permission were obtained for the study. Verbal and written consent will be obtained from the mothers during the data collection phase.
"mini-BESTest (Turkish version)", "Berg Balance Test", "Timed Up and Go Test" and "Functional Reach Test" will be used for balance measurement in patients and the correlation of the mini-BEST with these tests will be checked.
The pandemic, which started in China at the end of 2019, appeared in our country in a short time. Most hospitals and physicians were only concerned with the treatment of these patients. One of the most victimized patient groups in this duration was lymphedema patients who were in need of continuous follow-up and rehabilitation at necessary periods, but were also at risk in terms of covid-19 infection and could not go to hospitals unless necessary. The treatment of both primary and secondary lymphedema patients has been interrupted or delayed. This process has affected the health status, treatment processes and quality of life of the lymphedema patient group. The current situation may have caused them anxiety and depression as a result of infection fear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the treatment processes, health status, coronavirus phobia, anxiety, and depression states of the lymphedema patients .
We aimed in this study: 1. To compare the ultrasonographic measurements of the abdominal muscles thickness symmetry in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and adolescent healthy individuals 2. To investigate the effect of measured thickness and symmetry on pulmonary function test.
