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 was to evaluate exercise capacity and activity role adequacy in patients with adult bronchial asthma.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of person-centre occupational therapy intervention on activity performance and quality of life in hemodialysis patients. The results of the study will guide the intervention programs for prevention, coping and improving the quality of life of HD patients.
The proposed study is designed to provide patients previously enrolled in Phase 1 and 2 studies of DCR-PHXC and their siblings (<18 years old) long-term access to DCR-PHXC, and to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of DCR-PHXC in patients with PH.
The patients diagnosed with stress urinary incontinence and included in the study. According to randomisation plan one group will be instructed by a physiotherapist to perform pelvic flor exercises and the other group will be instructed by the same physiotherapist to perform dynamic lumbopelvic stabilisation exercises.Throughout the study, the women will be followed up to ensure the exercises are performed. The exercises will be applied for approximately 30 mins once a day for a period of 10 weeks.
To evaluate the ability of Erector spina Plane block and Psoas compartment block to decrease postoperative pain and analgesia requirements in patients undergoing hip surgery.
To evaluate the ability of Erector spina Plane block and Serratus Anterior Plane block to decrease postoperative pain and analgesia requirements in patients undergoing thoracotomy.
This study will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Bimatoprost Sustained Release (SR) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who completed 1 of the 4 Phase 3 Bimatoprost SR studies (192024-091, -092, -093, or -095) and received Bimatoprost SR or who received commercial DURYSTA (Bimatoprost SR) in the open-label Phase 4 ARGOS study (MED-MA-EYE-0648) and completed (or exited early from) the study.
Along with the technological advances in medicine, videolaryngoscope is the most commonly preferred technique for intubation with double lumen tube. The use of Storz C-MAC D Blade and McGrath MAC X3 Blade videolaryngoscope were compared in intubation of single lung ventilation patients who underwent chest surgery in terms of duration of intubation, hemodynamic response and intubation-induced complications.
PURPOSE: To compare the effect of hyaluronic acid (HA) or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on pain, physical function, quality of life and knee joint morphology in patients with knee osteoarthritis severity II-III. BACKGROUND: Knee osteoarthritis affects quality of life significantly because it is the most common joint disease and causes considerable disability. Pathogenesis is multifactorial, nevertheless reduced cartilage production, increased destruction, and synovial inflammation are important factors in the osteoarthritis process. Today, symptomatic drugs are commonly used in the treatment of osteoarthritis, but these treatments have limited effects on cartilage degeneration. Intraarticularly, hyaluronic acid (HA) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatments have been used for osteoarthritis due to pain and functional effects. HA has been shown to reduce the levels of collagen degradation products and maintain normal cartilage metabolism. PRP is thought to have positive effects on clinical and tissue healing due to the numerous growth factors involved. However there is no research to prove definitively that one of the two applications in knee osteoarthritis is superior to the other. METHOD: 120 patients between the ages of 50-70, OA severity II-III will be included in the study. Patients will be stratified according to the severity and age of OA, and two groups will be randomly assigned as HA and PRP. HA and PRP injections will be performed two times and one month apart. Outcome measures are pain, physical function, quality of life, muscle strength, WORMS, and patient satisfaction. Each patient will be examined at baseline, first, third, sixth, ninth and twelfth months.
Appendectomy is the most common surgical procedure. Chronic abdominal pain is an uncommon complication following appendectomy. It is observed that pediatric patients who have undergone abdominal surgical procedure complained of pain and discomfort in the postoperative period and these complaints may affect quality of life. We aimed to investigate the presence of postoperative chronic abdominal pain and discomfort in children aged 8-18 years underwent appendectomy and their social and physical effects. The records of children aged 8-18 years who underwent appendectomy, such as age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiology (ASA) classification score, the type of surgical procedure, and anesthetic technique were obtained. Children had inclusions crietrias, pain was assessed using numerical rating scale and their effects on life were assessed Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory parent and child versions questionnaire at sixth months after surgery.
