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.
Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) disease highest mortality and morbidity of respiratory diseases that third cause of death in the world and Turkey. Purpose: Purpose of study improve self-efficacy, anxiety/depression, symptom control and exercise capacity, reduce use of health care of COPD patients. Method: The study was conducted with a randomized controlled design. This study were included 41 COPD patients (İntervention=20, Control=21). Data collection tools were patient description form, COPD Self-Efficacy Scale (CSES), COPD Assessment Test (CAT), Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HAD), 6-Minute Walk Test (MWT) and tele-health form. Intervention consists patient education, training booklet and 3 month follow-up. Control group patients received only general care. The final test was performed three months later.
The aim of this clinical study is to compare two different approaches during dental implant applications. One group of patients in the study received flapless approach which is performed without surgical reflection of soft tissues (gums) during implant surgery. In the control group of the study, patients received conventional flap approach in which flap reflections performed on soft tissues (gums) of the patients. After the surgery patients were monitored for marginal bone loss around implants and discomfort after the surgery for 3 months. And received data statistically analyzed to compare the different surgical procedures.
Stretching effects skeletal muscle flexibility, vascularity and physical performance. The aim of our study is to examine the acute effects of static stretching duration on gastrocnemius muscle vascularization in healthy participants by superb microvascular imaging (SMI) and to compare the effects of 2 and 5 minutes of static stretching on blood flow.
Obesity, which is an important public health problem of the last century globally, affects not only adults but also children and young people. Reducing childhood obesity requires effective lifestyle changes and behavioral interventions aimed at healthy nutrition, physical activity and stress management. to reduce childhood obesity, including school-based multi-component behavioral research in Turkey it has not been demonstrated to parents. The program, which is planned to be carried out and aims to reduce overweight and obesity in children, is a school-based parenting lifestyle intervention involving multiple behaviors. The program includes family visits, game-based physical activity activities with children, healthy eating recommendations and healthy eating activities with parent participation. The program planned to be implemented was developed to evaluate whether healthy preferences and lifestyle intervention reduce obesity. The aim of this study is to make the positive health behaviors permanent in children, to be a guide for combating childhood obesity and to be useful for future research. to be applied to the research, nutrition consists of 10 sessions, physical activity, including issues such as coping with healthy ways with stress Child Obesity Program (COP), it is thought to overcome this deficiency was needed in Turkey.
Peripheral central catheter application, especially in extremely low birth weight premature babies, is an intensive care follow-up procedure. There are many clinical studies in areas such as catheter type, skin disinfection, catheter duration, catheter infection. In our practice, it was observed that premature baby was less uncomfortable, the number of trials decreased, and the change in body temperature was less with the application of hot skin disinfection in our practice. With a prospective randomized study, the investigators wanted to document their observational data scientifically.
Primary Objective: To determine the efficacy of SAR442168 compared to placebo in delaying disability progression in primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) Secondary Objectives: To evaluate efficacy of SAR442168 compared to placebo on clinical endpoints, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesions, cognitive performance, physical function, and quality of life To evaluate safety and tolerability of SAR442168 To evaluate population pharmacokinetics (PK) of SAR442168 in PPMS and its relationship to efficacy and safety To evaluate pharmacodynamics of SAR442168
Acute postoperative pain begins with surgical trauma and decreases with tissue healing. Untreatable postoperative pain is one of the most important problems due to the increase in respiratory, cardiac and thromboembolic complications. Lumber disc surgery is widely performed, and patients often complain of postoperative pain. Preventing and managing postoperative pain after lumber disc surgery is very important for anesthetists. For this purpose, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, intravenous opioids, preemptive analgesia methods, intravenous patient controlled analgesia methods and regional anesthesia techniques are used within the multimodal analgesia strategy. Regional anesthesia techniques are becoming increasingly widespread due to their efficiency and increased applicability thanks to the use of ultrasonography. Regional anesthesia techniques used in lumber disc surgery include paravertebral block, local anesthetic infiltration, epidural analgesia, and erector spina plan block and modified thoracolumbar interfacial plan block in recent years. The erector spina plane block was first described in 2016, and the thoracolumbar interfacial plane block in 2015, and its modification was developed in 2017. Although they vary depending on the level of application, they offer analgesic activity in a wide range. Although there are publications about the use of these blocks for postoperative analgesia after lumber surgeries, which block is more effective has not been investigated. This study may contribute to the development of new options for pain management after lumber disc surgery by comparing erector spina plane block and modified thoracolumbar interfacial plane block, which have recently been used for postoperative pain treatment, with limited research, with each other and the standard technique, intravenous patient controlled analgesia, can add new applications to multimodal analgesia methods, increase patient satisfaction and contribute to the early recovery process. The objective is to compare the erector spina plane block and modified thoracolumbar interfacial plane block in patients undergoing lumber disc surgery with intravenous patient-controlled analgesia in terms of analgesic efficacy. Hypothesis The erector spina plane block and modified thoracolumbar interfacial plane block may decrease the postoperative pain scores, opioid consumption and time to first analgesic requirement compared with intravenous patient controlled analgesia.
The aim of this study to determine the effect of deep tissue massage applied to the back on pain and comfort after cesarean section. Personal information form was used as data collection form, Visual Analog Scala was used to assess pain, and Postpartum Comfort Questionnaire was used to assess comfort.
Malnutrition and growth retardation are major extraintestinal presentations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in childhood and are especially prevalent among those with Crohn's disease. We aimed to evaluate nutritional status of children with IBD at the time of diagnosis.
This study is a randomized prospective, single-center feasibility study of the use and benefits of NeuRx DPS in patients undergoing tracheostomy for failure to wean.
