The purpose of this study is to investigate the accessibility of beauty products for individuals with upper extremity disabilities. By examining various factors such as packaging design, product applicators, and ease of use, this research aims to identify barriers faced by individuals with upper extremity disabilities or visual deficits when using beauty products. The study seeks to provide insights and recommendations for improving the accessibility of beauty products, ultimately promoting inclusivity and enhancing the overall beauty experience for individuals with disabilities.
Ischemic stroke has high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Stroke patients experience physical, psychological, and social problems, and require rehabilitation. The aim of stroke rehabilitation is to support patients in optimizing their physical, functional, mental, social, and occupational aspects. Telerehabilitation-based coaching interventions are among the individualized interventions applied to patients. This study aimed to examine the effects of telerehabilitation-based coaching interventions on self-efficacy, modifiable risk factors, and repeated hospitalizations in patients with ischemic stroke. It is predicted that discharge education in disease management and telerehabilitation-based coaching interventions will increase self-efficacy, reduce modifiable risk factors (blood pressure, cholesterol, triglyceride, HbA1c levels, body mass index, smoking, and alcohol use), and reduce repeated hospitalizations. With an education booklet prepared for ischemic stroke patients and primary care providers, one-on-one face-to-face education is planned while patients are in the clinic on the fourth or fifth day of stroke. Determination of individual goals with motivational interview, sending educational videos prepared in cooperation with the multidisciplinary health team to the phones or e-mails of the patients, providing telerehabilitation-based coaching a total of seven times for three months after discharge, monitoring the targets set weekly and monthly, and monthly follow-up after three months. It is planned to support patients with practices such as achieving their goals, maintaining healthy lifestyle changes such as diet and physical activity, and monitoring metabolic parameters. The evaluation form of the education booklet, videos prepared with the cooperation of the multidisciplinary team, and phone call evaluation form will be evaluated by 10 experts. The preliminary application will be tested with 6 patients, and the final form will be provided. The second phase of the study was designed as a single-center, single-blind (participant), randomized controlled study. The study will be carried out with a total of 60 patients with ischemic stroke, 30 in the intervention group and 30 in the control group, who continued to be followed up and treated at the Neurology Clinic of Akdeniz University Hospital.
People living with stroke have very low aerobic fitness, which can negatively impact brain health. Identifying the best exercise which includes exercise stimulus type (interval, continuous) or intensity, how hard to exercise (moderate, high) that benefit aerobic fitness, vascular health, and the brain's main blood vessels after stroke are unknown. This study is designed to determine the preliminary efficacy of high-volume HIIT to moderate intensity exercise using a seated stepper exercise device that allows the arms and legs to move back and forth.
Several studies have demonstrated that simultaneous treatment with two stentrievers (STs) as rescue treatment is very effective, with high recanalization rates even in this group of patients where other revascularization techniques have failed. There has been no observed increase in hemorrhagic complications. Recently, a prospective study has been published where treatment with two ST has been shown to be effective and safe if used as a first-choice treatment (not as rescue) with a successful recanalization rate (eTICI 2c/3) after the first pass of 69%. These results have been reinforced after the publication of a randomized study that confirms, in vitro, the superiority of using two ST over one.
The goal of this clinical trial is to confirm the efficacy and feasibility of early rehabilitation combined with virtual reality training in patients following first-time acute stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are: - The impact of virtual reality training on muscle strength; - The impact of virtual reality training on functional recovery; - The impact of virtual reality training on mood state. Researchers will compare the experimental group, which received early rehabilitation combined with VR training, and the comparison group, which received only early rehabilitation, to see if VR training has clinical benefits when provided alongside early rehabilitation during hospitalization.
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safeness of intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS) over the left Superior Temporal Gyrus (STG), guided by personalized Brain Functional Sector (pBFS) technology, on language function recovery in patients with post-ischemic stroke aphasia.
To assess the frequency of signs of pulmonary infection on a chest CT and development of clinical diagnose of poststroke pneumonia，and its effect on functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
This study aims to establish a multicenter, large-scale, prospective cohort of patients with ischemic stroke. Various biological samples such as blood, feces, and urine are collected to identify biomarkers associated with ischemic stroke. By integrating demographic information, clinical indicators, imaging parameters, and biomarker parameters, the study aims to develop risk assessment, early warning, and prognosis prediction models. Additionally, the study aims to identify key genes and explore relevant signaling pathways related to ischemic stroke.
Establish a clinical cohort of acute ischemic stroke patients and find the determinant of the prognosis.
