Filter by:The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of listening to the voice recordings of relatives of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) who were treated in the coronary intensive care unit on chest pain, anxiety and depression parameters of the patients. Methods In the study, which was conducted as a randomised, controlled, experimental study, voice recordings of the family members of the patients were created and played to the patients through a music pillow. The study was carried out with 60 patients, 30 experimental and 30 control groups. Three tests were applied to the patients 15 minutes before, 15 and 30 minutes after the application. The data of the study were collected using the "Patient Introduction Form", "Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale", "Visual Analogue Scale" and "Patient Follow-up Form".
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether a reduced radiation protocol (RRP) in which angiograms are acquired at ultralow radiation doses and then processed using spatiotemporal enhancement software can produce similar quality angiographic images as compared with standard techniques.
A prospective, multi-center, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial is conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Yinxingmihuan oral solution in the treatment of chest pain after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with stable angina. Patients should undergo at least 1-week standardized medical treatment phase before randomization. The primary end point is the 12-week angina frequency assessed on the basis of Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) subscales. The main secondary endpoint is the improvement of anxiety assessed by Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) to evaluate its effectiveness for chest pain caused by psychological factors.
1. Study will be a Non-Randomized clinical trial to check the effects of upper back strengthening and postural correction on pain, functional status and sleep quality in females with costal rib pain in 3rd trimester of pregnancy so that we can devise a treatment protocol for females during pregnancy suffering from costal rib pain. Duration of study was 6 months, Non-probability convenient sampling technique was used, subject following eligibility criteria from Avicenna Hospital were allocated in two groups, baseline assessment was done, Group A participants were given baseline treatment along with upper back strengthening and postural correction exercises, Group B participants were given baseline treatment along with no other specific treatment for 3 weeks. On 6th and 12th day, post intervention assessment was done via, Numeric Pain Rating Scale, Patient Specific Functional Scale and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. 3 sessions per week were given, data was analyzed by using SPSS version 26.
Cardiac troponin is central to the diagnosis of myocardial infarction and high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) assays are the preferred choice for the assessment of patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome. Since the introduction of hs-cTn assays in Europe in 2010, most hospitals have switched from contemporary sensitive cardiac troponin assays to a hs-cTn assay. The implementation of hs-cTn assays has led to an increase in the number of patients identified with myocardial injury. Although both hs-cTnI and hs-cTnT assays are recommended in current guidelines, the impact of switching from a hs-cTnI assay to a hs-cTnT assay on clinical practice is unknown. At this point, no studies have evaluated the impact of implementing sex-specific hs-cTnT thresholds on the diagnosis of myocardial infarction and outcome in clinical practice. The investigators propose to determine the proportion of patients with and without myocardial injury admitted to the hospital before and after implementation of a hs-cTnT assay and to evaluate the impact on investigations, care and clinical outcomes in consecutive patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome.
The purpose of the study is to determine physical and mental health issues of U.K. embryologists related to their occupational characteristics, and how workplace fatigue and burnout may affect their quality of life, cynicism, interactions with patients, attention to detail, and lead to human error, the cause of the most severe IVF incidents that often make headlines and result in costly litigation. It will also correlate how the current manual workflows contribute to these health issues, and what measures can be taken to improve both working conditions and embryologists' health, and, therefore, improve patient care.
Chest pain is a common presenting complaint among patients in the emergency department (ED). A large portion of patients with chest pain undergo lengthy assessment in the ED or are admitted to rule out acute oronary syndrome (ACS), often with stress testing, creating a substantial health care burden. The new high-sensitivity cardiac troponin assays allow use of shorter time intervals for repeated blood samples and may improve care for chest pain patients. The aim of this cohort is to evaluate high-sentivity troponin based protocols for ruling out and ruling in ACS in the ED.
The goal of the current project is to assess performance of the Bounceless Control sports bra versus: (1) the Shefit Ultimate Sports bra, and (2) conventional bra as worn by participants in a variety of athletic activities.
Radial approach is widely established in cardiac diagnostic and therapeutic treatments. It has been shown to decrease bleeding, vascular problems, and mortality rates when compared to the femoral approach. It also offers better comfort to patients through early mobility and lowers hospital expenses. Previously, there were no specific devices for radial artery hemostasis. Many different types of dressings were used in various hospitals with no standardization. This raises the question of whether specific devices surpass dressings in terms of patient comfort, time required to maintain hemostasis, and vascular complications. The primary goal of this study was to examine the effectiveness of compression dressings and hemostatic wristbands on patients undergoing cardiac procedures via radial approach in terms of patient comfort, time required to maintain hemostasis, and vascular problems. The hemostatic wristband TR BandR (Terumo Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) was utilized in one group, while compressive elastic dressing, standardized as 13 threads gauze overlapped, opened, longitudinally pleated once and wrapped, making a 5-cm long cylinder, 1-cm in height, was used in the other.
The aim of this study is to compare the effects of thoracic extension versus thoracic stabilization exercises on pain, stiffness, range of motion, disability and posture in patients with Maigne's thoracic pain.This study will be a randomized clinical trial and 32 patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. they will be allocated into 2 groups using non- probability purposive sampling technique. Group A will receive conventional treatment, myofascial release, thoracic spine mobilization with Thoracic Extension exercise program, while Group B will receive conventional treatment, myofascial release, thoracic spine mobilization with Thoracic Stabilization exercise program. Outcome measure: Numeric Pain Rating Scale, Goniometer, Thoracic Stiffness Index, Revised Oswestry Thoracic Pain Disability Questionnaire, standing thoracic X-ray and Flexi curve ruler, will measure pain, thoracic flexion and extension, Cobb's angle, kyphosis index, thoracic stiffness index and disability. Both groups will receive a total of 45 minutes session, thrice a week for 3 weeks. Measurements will be taken at the baseline, at the end of 3rd week and for long-term effects at the end of 6th week. Data will be analyzed by SPSS version 21.
