Filter by:It was aimed to determine the effect of virtual reality glasses application on anxiety and fatigue in women with breast cancer receiving adjuvant chemotherapy.
This study focused on determining the views of nurses on alarm fatigue and its reduction in adult intensive care units.
Aim and objectives: The aim of this study is to examine the effect of motivational notifications applied to emergency nurses on job satisfaction, compassion fatigue and communication skills during the COVID-19 pandemic. Background: Emergency room nurses working on the front lines during the COVID-19 pandemic; many factors such as excessive workload, prolonged working hours, threat of infection, death of the patients they care for have caused them to experience physical, social and psychological problems. Design: It is a randomized controlled, open-label study. Methods: This study was carried out with a total of 60 nurses working in the emergency units of two training and research hospitals in Istanbul. Participants were divided into motivational group and control group. Motivational notifications were sent via Short Message Service (SMS) to the mobile phones of the participants in the motivational group (n=30) for 21 days. No motivational notification was sent to the control group (n=30) during this process. Data were obtained with the Individual Introduction Form, Job Satisfaction, Compassion Fatigue and Communication Skills Scale.
This study will compare the effects of AXA1125, an orally active mixture of amino acids, compared to placebo, on improving muscle function (metabolism) following moderate exercise in subjects with fatigue-Predominant Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 as well as the safety and tolerability of AXA1125. Subjects will take one dose of AXA1125 or a placebo twice daily for 28 days.
Central sensitization (CS) is a common feature in chronic musculoskeletal pain conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, chronic whiplash syndrome, fibromyalgia, temporomandibular joint disorders, low back pain and lateral elbow pain. CS is defined as "an amplification of neural signaling within the central nervous system that elicits pain hypersensitivity". Clinical signs are allodynia, hyperalgesia and widespread pain, originating from the enhanced activity of central nervous system to peripheral afferent input from unimodal and polymodal receptors. CS not only induces abnormal pain processing, it may also lead to motor performance dysfunction in chronic pain population. CS induce cortical reorganization including changes in gray matter, cortical representation and cortical excitability both in motor and somatosensory cortex. This process ultimately generates sensorimotor conflict that described as a mismatch between motor intention and sensory feedback, and may directly effect on motor performance. The structural changes in basal ganglia and reduced GABAergic activity in the motor cortex contribute to the alteration of the motor performance. It has been known that CS and fatigue, another indicator of the motor performance, has a bidirectional effect and fatigue is predicted by CS, independently of the presence of pain. CS affect fatigue via causing disrupted reward process, increased effort and pain expactation. The increased cervical spine hypersensitivity in patients with LEP even if there is no accompanied neck or upper limb pain may also indicate of the fatigue as pain does not always suggest an injury and biomechanical damage to a tissue does not always suggest that an individual will experience pain. If neck muscle fatigue is effected by central sensitization in patients with LEP, it can be important to develop therapeutic strategies to prevent neck muscle fatigue as there is a relationship between fatigue and increased risk of injury. Despite the fact that central sensitization effect on neck pain has been well documented in patients with LEP, its role on fatigue had not gain enough clinical and research attention. To know about central sensitization effect on motor performance can also be useful for determine subgroup of population who have central sensitization. However, it is unknown whether remote body endurance alteration occur in lateral elbow pain or not.
The main purpose of the present study is to determine the effects of acute and short-term (14 days) ginseng combined with branch chained amino acids supplementation on endurance exercise performance and the ability of anti-fatigue. In addition, this study also measured the performance of continuous attention during recovery period to examine the effect of supplementation on central fatigue.
In this study, It is aimed to evaluate the effect of breathing exercise on fatigue in patients with heart failure, to reduce the severity of fatigue in participants, and thus to enable patients to participate more actively in daily life.
The investigators postulate that there is a difference in the acquisition of Fundamental Laparoscopic Skills (FLS) between general surgical and Obstetrics & Gynaecology (O&G) trainees. This discrepancy is also likely to influence the musculoskeletal and cognitive fatigue trainees experience within both specialties. Additionally there is likely to be a discrepancy in the expectations of consultants and trainees on skills perceived to be important at the completion of training (CCT). This study aims to compare and evaluate the discrepancy in FLS acquisition amongst O&G and GS trainees in order to identify areas for improvements in the training pathway, the associated fatigue experience and highlight the expectations perceived to be required at the completion of training.
The reliability of the Xco endurance test will be assessed in sedentary adults and in overhead athletes. The experimentation will be divided into two sessions. During the sessions, the impact of the test on rotators strength and throwing performance will be explored.
This clinical investigation is a monocenter, prospective, randomized, controlled, counter-balanced, two-arm study investigating the effect of a novel ergonomic handwriting pen.
