Filter by:Purpose: It was planned as a randomized controlled experiment in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the ocean sound on pain, comfort and physiological parameters in the NICU, Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) examination. Design: This is single-center. randomized controlled trial, double blind, parallel. Hypotheses: H0a: There is no difference between the pain levels (scale score) of premature babies in the control group and the ocean sound group. H0b: There is no difference between the comfort levels (scale score) of premature babies in the control group and the ocean sound group. H0c: There is no difference between the physiological parameters of the premature babies in the control group and the ocean sound group. H1a: There is a difference between the pain levels (scale score) of premature babies in the control group and the ocean sound group. H1b: There is a difference between the comfort levels (scale score) of premature babies in the control group and the ocean sound group. H1c: There is a difference between the physiological parameters of the premature babies in the control group and the ocean sound group. Method: The population of the research will be preterm babies who are treated at Necmettin Erbakan University Meram Medical Faculty NICU and will have their first ROP examination. Premature babies to be included in the study will be assigned to two study groups using the quadruple balanced block randomization method created in the computer environment according to their gestational age. In the study, the baby information form, Premature Baby Pain Profile Scale-Revised Form (PIPP-R), and Premature Baby Comfort Scale (PBIC) created by the researcher by scanning the literature will be used. Data will be collected by researcher GA. Infants who meet the criteria for inclusion in the study will be selected from the infants who are planned to undergo an ROP examination, and written and verbal consent will be obtained from the families by explaining the purpose of the study before the application. The information contained in the "Baby Information Form" will be obtained from the nurse observation form and patient files. On the day of the ROP examination, babies who meet the inclusion criteria before the procedure will be recorded outside the incubator with a video recorder in the room where the ROP examination will be performed (a room with 45-50 dB sound). Two minutes before the ROP, the baby will be monitored and physiological parameters will be recorded, and one minute before the ROP, the experimental group will start to listen to the ocean sound (Video recordings will be evaluated by two experts, PIPP-R and PBIC). After the necessary disinfection process is done, the voice recorder will be placed in the incubator at a distance of 20 cm from the baby's head and the sound level will be adjusted to an average of 55 decibels. The examination will begin with the placement of the speculum in the eye. The duration of the examination varies according to the visibility of the retinal vascularity, and the examination will end with the removal of the speculum from the eye. Ocean Sound Group; The ocean sound recording will continue to be played during the ROP examination. Control Group; No sound will be played before, during and after the ROP examination. Physiological parameters will be recorded at the 1st and 5th minutes after the procedure. (Video recordings will be evaluated by two experts for PIPP-R and PBIC). Video recording will be stopped.Ocean Sound Group;The ocean sound recording will be played at the 5th minute after the ROP inspection. Control Group; No sound will be played before, during and after the ROP examination.
Episiotomy is one of the common surgical operations that can cause anxiety in women and have side effects such as pain. Nerve blockades with analgesic effects such as lidocaine used during episiotomy repair or the use of tranquilizers and sleep-inducing drugs used to reduce anxiety during this procedure may have side effects. Nowadays, the trends towards non-medical methods (virtual reality glasses, praying, distraction, music therapy) in addition to medical methods during episiotomy repair are increasing due to the inevitable nature of these methods and the absence of side effects. In the study, it is stated that women will prefer non-medical methods (such as distraction or prayer) to alleviate pain or anxiety. It is important for midwives to have knowledge about these alternative methods (music therapy, virtual reality glasses, distraction, massage, acupressure, praying) to reduce the pain and anxiety that occurs during episiotomy repair. A new technology, virtual reality (VR), helps users connect to an environment that simulates reality, reducing pain by distracting them from the real world through computers or other devices. Although initially considered a technology only for the entertainment industry, its field of application has grown over the past decade to include various clinical areas such as pain management, physical rehabilitation, and psychiatric disorders. VR is suitable for clinical use and is a non-invasive and drug-free analgesic method. Its use in obstetrics is very new. Virtual reality glasses are recognized as a safe, inexpensive and effective non-pharmacological anxiolytic agent that allows for the reduction of regular pharmacological sedative doses due to their effect on anxiety and pain perception. Skin-to-skin contact is defined by the World Health Organization as the basic component of postnatal care. Skin-to-skin contact helps to reduce the pain felt during episiotomy repair in the mother and in the postpartum period. This research was planned to determine the effect of virtual reality glasses on pain and anxiety during episiotomy repair.
This project aims to evaluate whether electrical stimulation can modulate the cold detection threshold and the cold pain threshold. The hypothesis is that different electrical stimulation will either decrease or increase the cold threshold depending on the shape of the electrical stimulus. If a combination of electrical stimuli and cold stimuli could be used, this could lead to a novel method for estimating the excitability properties of cold-sensing fibers. The sub-project takes place in 1 session (1.5 hours).
This is a prospective, and controlled trial. 60 participants with myofascial trigger points and disc displacement with reduction and 60 participants with disc displacement with reduction will be included in the study. These two groups will be compared for clinical findings, pain severity and limitation of the temporomadibular function.
This is a cross-sectional investigation into modulating mechanisms in patients with chronic subjective tinnitus, which will compare 4 patient groups namely chronic tinnitus with chronic pain, chronic tinnitus without chronic pain, chronic pain without tinnitus and healthy controls.
Pain during lactation is the first reason to stop breastfeeding. When usual known aids are ineffective, osteopathic treatment is a possible way to decrease the pain and improve the quality and the duration of lactation. The aim of this study is to compare usual known aids alone and usual known aids added to osteopathic treatment of the baby and the mother. The primary outcome is the lactation rate (exclusive or partial) at 1 month after birth
The aim of the study was to asses levels and relationship of chronic pain, anxiety, depression and perceived stress in TMD patients .
This is a Phase I, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 4-way crossover study to investigate the PD effects, safety, tolerability and PK/PD correlation of two single oral dose levels of IP2015 compared to 300 mg pregabalin and placebo in healthy male subjects using the ID capsaicin model.
The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using external cold and vibration-Buzzy and VR on reducing procedural pain and anxiety in children aged 7 to 12 years during phlebotomy injection.
Within the scope of the newborn screening (metabolic and endocrine diseases) tests (NSTs), this research aims to determine the effect of the different concentrations of oral dextrose solution applying together with supportive positions primarily on the pain scores and secondarily on the duration of crying time during the heel-stick sampling in premature infants.
