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.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of video exercise trainings based on transtheoretic model given to elderly individuals living in nursing homes under the leadership of nurses on the risk of falling in elderly individuals within nursing care programs.
Research; It is a planned, non-invasive, controlled study in obese female volunteers and non-obese female volunteers. The population of the study consists of voluntarily non-obese women and obese women. Sarcopenia assets of individuals will be measured with the sarc-f questionnaire, and then muscle strength, muscle mass and physical performance tests will be measured. Then, rectus femoris muscle thickness will be measured with USG, and then walking and balance will be measured with ZEBRIS.
The study will investigate internet addiction, musculoskeletal pain and body awareness in high school students.

Summary Introduction: Prolonged standing brings with it various health problems such as extremity pain, fatigue, cardiovascular abnormalities. According to the Ergonomic Tool 4 guideline of the Perioperative Registered Nurses Association (AORN); If a staff member has to stand for more than two hours, stand in the same position for more than 30% of the working day or while wearing a lead apron, ergonomic intervention and alternative methods are recommended. Purpose: The aim of this thesis study is to examine the effects of anti-fatigue mat use and footbath on fatigue and lower extremity pain among operating room nurses. Method: This study, which was designed as a pretest posttest single-group quasi-experimental type, will be carried out with 27 nurses working in the operating room department between September 2022 and June 2023 at Bartın State Hospital, Bartın Gynecology and Childhood Diseases Hospital and Zonguldak Bülent Ecevit University Health Practice and Research Center. Introductory Information Form, Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Visual Similarity Scale for Fatigue (VAS-F), Lower Leg Circumference Monitoring Form, Lower Extremity Edema Monitoring Form, Anti-Fatigue Mat, Materials for Foot Bath will be used in data collection. During the data collection process, the basic measurements of the operating room nurses will be made and then the measurements will be repeated using an anti-fatigue mat. The collection of data will be interrupted for 1 month, and basic measurements will be taken again and the nurses will be provided with a foot bath. After the footbath applications, the measurements will be repeated and recorded. Data will be saved in SPSS 22.0 Program. In the evaluation of the data obtained, tests evaluating the normal distribution of the data will be used as well as descriptive statistical methods. According to the normal distribution of the data, the data will be analyzed with parametric or nonparametric tests. Conclusion: At the end of the study, it is expected that there will be significant differences between the two applications in terms of fatigue, pain in the lower extremities and edema, and it will be beneficial. There are very few studies on the use of mats and foot baths in operating room nurses. There is no study evaluating the combined effect of both. It will be an example for the literature and future studies.
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is one of the most common morbidities in premature infants and is associated with poor neurodevelopmental outcomes . Although mechanical ventilation and oxygen requirements in premature infants have been identified as triggering mechanisms for the development of inflammation and BPD over time, data now support that a number of perinatal events that may stimulate the inflammatory cascade before birth also have important effects. Corticosteroids such as dexamethasone and hydrocortisone have proven to be beneficial for the prevention and management of postpartum BPD due to their anti-inflammatory properties . With this study, the effects of corticosteroid use on lung ultrasound findings in BPD will be investigated, and acute and chronic lung ultrasonography scores will be recorded. A prospective observational study was planned in the neonatal intensive care unit between 2022 and 2024 in premature infants below 32 weeks of gestational age. Demographic data and Lung Ultrasonography findings of these babies will be recorded. Among the patients who are predicted to go to BPD, in the group using corticosteroids, Lung Ultrasonographic imaging will be performed and the effect of corticosteroids on pulmonary findings will be recorded. It is planned to investigate whether postnatal steroid use has an effect on lung ultrasound findings in preterm infants with BPD.
This study aims to evaluate the dehydration and rehydration changes in teeth over time and the quantitative effect of these changes on natural tooth color in the clinic. In addition, it is aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of different color measuring devices used in color detection in the clinic, the use of cross-polarization filters, and white balance calibration in color evaluation. Clinicians will evaluate the results of the time intervals in which dehydration is effective in detectable levels of color change. Considering the quantitative changes in dehydrated and rehydrated teeth, it will be possible to prevent negative results in restorations.
This study is conducted to examine the effect of a psychotherapy model that is expected to affect alcohol cravings in adults aged 18-65 years who are being treated for alcohol use disorder at a clinic. The psychotherapy intervention is expected to affect other variables such as clinical symptom level, self-efficacy level, and functionality level. This protocol is called addiction-focused eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (addiction-focused EMDR). Patients found suitable for the study will be divided into experimental and control groups. The intervention will be applied to the experimental group and not to the control group. At the end of the intervention, the effect of the intervention primarily on the level of craving will be compared with that of the control group. The intervention is expected to reduce the level of craving. The intervention is expected to have an impact on the other variables mentioned as well.
After the approval of the Ethics Committee, 120 patients were planned to be included in the study between 15.06.2022 and 15.01.2023. Women who underwent elective cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia were randomized to the supine position, 15° left-lateral tilt position, or 30° left-lateral tilt position. The position will be changed to supine before the incision. It was planned to recruit 40 patients from each group, with a total of 120 patients. Anesthetic management was standardized and fluid administration with 10 mL/kg isotonic was planned. Hypotension (systolic blood pressure [SBP] reduction > 20% baseline or SBP <90 mm Hg) will be treated with intravenous bolus ephedrine based on maternal heart rate. The primary outcome is planned to include maternal SBP in 15 minutes of anesthesia induction, the amount of vasoactive drug administered before the end of surgery, and the incidence of hypotension during cesarean delivery.
Aim: This study was randomized to determine the effect of biological nurturing education given to nulliparous pregnant women on breastfeeding status. Method: The population of the study consisted of pregnant women who are visiting Istanbul Training and Research Hospital Suleymaniye Obstetrics and Pediatrics Hospital between October 2022 and August 2023. F test at 90% effect power 0.25 medium effect level on the sample of the study analyzed using the Gpower (3.1.9.2) Programe. As a result of the analyze, it was planned to recruit 207 nulliparous pregnant women. According to the calculation made, there should be at least 69 people in each groups. Accordingly, 69 people in the experimental 1 group (biological nurturing), 69 people in the experimental 2 group (classical breastfeeding), 69 people should be included in the control group. Experimental 1 group and experimental 2 group will be given breastfeeding training on their first visit and after two weeks. Breastfeeding success in the postpartum period will be compared in all groups.
