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 the study is to compare the effectiveness of stretching and strengthening exercises on pain, functional status, range of motion and psychosocial factors in patients with frozen shoulder.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of technology-based exercises on treatment success in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. Within the scope of the study, thirty patients with AIS will be randomly allocated to two groups. The control group will apply a program with conventional approaches consisting of a combination of structured three-dimensional scoliosis exercises, core stabilization and balance exercises. Patients in the intervention group will perform structured three-dimensional scoliosis exercises, core stabilization and balance exercises similarly to the control group. However, patients in the intervention group will perform core stabilization and balance exercises with virtual reality games for twenty-four weeks. Patients' Cobb angle, Pediatric Berg Balance Scale (balance), Posterior Trunk Asymmetry Index (POTSI) (cosmetic), Walter Reed Visual Assessment Scale (WRVAS)(cosmetic), System Usability Scale (system usability) and Physical Activity Participation Motivation Scale (PAPMS) (motivation) parameters will be assess at the beginning of treatment, third and six month.
This research aims to evaluate the impact of hippotherapy on life satisfaction, health literacy, and health culture among young adults who have undergone cancer treatment. The study underscores the importance of providing support to patients post-cancer treatment. While the literature extensively supports the use of animal-assisted interventions in nursing care plans and practices, there is a notable absence of studies examining the holistic effects of hippotherapy on cancer survivors, both nationally and globally. Given that nurses play a pivotal role in the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation stages of all diseases, and strive to enhance patient quality of life through comprehensive care, the findings of this project are expected to not only bolster the visibility and professional efficacy of nurses but also inspire similar future research. The research tools employed will determine how complementary supportive practices influence the life satisfaction, health literacy, and health culture of young adults during critical life-shaping periods. These results could provide significant evidence of the nurse's role in patient education, support, and overall care improvement.
comparison of Anesthesia by Target-Controlled Infusion and Inhalation Methods on Pediatric Patients Undergoing Inguinal Hernia Repair: Effects on Patient Outcomes
This study will conduct a two-arm, single-blind, randomized controlled trial among Syrian refugee women living in Turkey who experience psychological distress. In the study, participants will be randomly assigned to either the SH+ intervention (n = 105) combined with a session on Post-Migration Living Difficulties (PMLD) or Treatment as Usual (TAU) (n = 105). SH+ is a five-session guided self-help intervention focusing on stress management based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). In addition, a session discussing post-migration difficulties and possible problem-management techniques will be integrated after the SH+ intervention. This study aims to fill an important gap in refugee health and well-being research by focusing on the integrated expansion and implementation of an intervention program to address the psychosocial challenges faced by refugee Syrian women. The results will assess the effectiveness of the intervention on psychological distress, focusing on its potential positive effects on psychological distress, stress management, and adaptation processes. Furthermore, the impact of the intervention on the use of association services and psychological flexibility will be examined.
Although distraction methods such as virtual reality glasses, watching videos, watching cartoons, etc. have been reported to reduce pain in the literature, studies on which method is more effective in reducing pain are limited. Considering the developmental period characteristics, virtual reality glasses and stress ball squeezing may be effective in the 6-12 age group during painful intervention. However, no study has been found in the literature on which technique is more effective (9-23). Therefore, investigating the effects of virtual reality goggles and stress ball squeezing on pain and fear in children aged 6-12 years as a distraction method during intravenous catheterization may enable nurses to determine the technique with high clinical usefulness in pain management.
The aim of this randomised controlled trial was to investigate the effect of a stress ball on pain, anxiety and physiological parameters in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) patients on non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV).
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in effectiveness of intraosseous anesthesia and inferior alveolar block anesthesia in children with molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH). The main question it aims to answer are: - Is intraosseous anesthesia is more effective in pain control when restoring hypersensitive teeth with MIH?
This research was conducted as a randomized controlled study to determine the effect of stress ball application on stress, anxiety and comfort in women with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy.
No tool has been found to evaluate behaviors that may hinder or facilitate physical activity in individuals with pediatric rheumatic diseases. In this sense, the importance of examining physical activity barriers and facilitators in children with rheumatic diseases is clear. We believe that our study will guide the increase in physical activity, which is very important for reducing disease risks in individuals with pediatric rheumatic diseases. The aim of our study is to examine the validity and reliability of the Inflammatory Arthritis Facilitators and Barriers to Physical Activity (IFAB) Questionnaire in individuals with pediatric rheumatic diseases (juvenile idiopathic arthritis, juvenile fibromyalgia syndrome, juvenile dermatomyositis).
