Filter by:The most important indicator of the fertility period, which has an important place in a woman's life, is the menstrual cycle, which begins with menarche and continues until menopause. In this natural process that takes place every month physiologically, some women experience significant pain [1]. This condition, defined as dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation), is classified in two ways as primary dysmenorrhea (PD) and secondary dysmenorrhea (SD) [2,3]. PD is the most common women's health problem, especially in adolescents and young adults (10-20 years of age) [1,5]. When studies on the incidence and severity of primary dysmenorrhea are examined, the incidence of PD is seen at rates ranging from 40-90% [5-8]. The main goal of the treatment approach to PD, which negatively affects women's quality of life in many ways, is to relieve the woman by reducing the pain. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) is one of the non-pharmacological and integrated treatment methods for women with primary dysmenorrhea. This practice, which is also referred to as EFT stroke/touch in most sources, is based on expressing the problem by touching the energy meridian points of the body, as in acupuncture and acupressure. Considering the results of the studies, it can be said that EFT is effective in the management of pain and the negative effects caused by the restrictions in the life of the person (social and daily living activities, etc.) [27-30]. Thanks to EFT, it is thought that women will contribute to the reduction of the fear and anxiety of experiencing pain just before menstruation and the anxiety that their life will be limited due to this. Studies investigating the effect of EFT on pain have reported that it is effective in coping with pain [33-35]. However, no randomized controlled study was found in the literature search for the application of EFT in high school students with dysmenorrhea. For this reason, it is thought that if EFT is applied in this age period with a high incidence of dysmenorrhea, important findings can be achieved in terms of parameters such as pain intensity and menstrual symptoms, and it will contribute to the literature by shedding light on similar studies. [36]. Therefore, in this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of the emotional freedom technique applied to high school students with primary dysmenorrhea on pain severity and menstruation symptoms.
The study aimed to investigate the effect of breathing exercises in addition to conventional treatment on pain, normal joint movement and quality of life in patients with frozen shoulder. A simple random number table will randomly divide participants into two groups. The study group (20 participants) will be given 15 sessions of respiratory exercises in addition to the 15 sessions of physiotherapy provided routinely for treatment. The control group (20 participants) will receive 15 sessions of physiotherapy services in addition to the routine 15 sessions of the physiotherapy department.
The aim of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of a Pain Science Education program to improve the conceptualization of pain in adolescents between 11 and 13 years old, schooled in the first year of Compulsory Secondary Education.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Zoles customised 3D-printed insoles to mitigate running-related pain among frequent recreational runners who participate in regular Park Run activities. All participants will have their feet scanned, after which half of the participants will be provided with customised 3D-printed insoles, while the other half will receive no intervention.
Inpatients or outpatients diagnosed with head and neck cancer who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were referred to the co-investigator(Dr. Chih-Jen Huang and Dr. Hui-Ching Wang), who then personally explained to each participant, the purpose and conduct of the study, so that they all understood their rights and interests before giving a written consent.
Justification: among the sequelae of Covid-19 in clinical practice we frequently find persistent neuromusculoskeletal pain. Previous studies carried out by this research group and in the scientific literature have shown that "Pain Neuroscience Education" (PNE) and Therapeutic Exercise (TE) constitute an effective care strategy in the treatment of persistent pain. Therefore, with this research we will try to respond with a treatment proposal from Primary Care (PC). Objective: to determine whether an PNE and TE program is effective in patients presenting Long Covid Pain (LCP). Method: Randomized clinical trial. A sample of 80 subjects will be recruited. The intervention group will receive a program of TE and PNE, of 12 weeks duration: 5 weeks of PNE, of 1 weekly session of 90 minutes, and 7 weeks of TE, with a total of 19 sessions of 60 minutes duration. The control group will receive the usual treatment. An assessment will be made at the beginning and after the end of the intervention, where the following variables will be measured: quality of life, intensity, distribution and expansion of pain, healthy physical condition and blood test values. These will be evaluated by means of physical examination, questionnaires and laboratory tests. Applicability of the expected results: The proposed intervention is simple and reproducible. It requires few resources, and can produce changes in pain perception, functionality and quality of life in patients with LCP.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of single and multiple doses of VX-973 in healthy participants.
The main purpose of our study is to assess whether guided strength training and stretching intervention with a written home exercise program is more effective than a home exercise program alone for pre-clinical dental students in improving and preventing pain associated with dental laboratory practice. Secondary aims will be to assess relationships between strength and quality of life measures of an individual and pain levels.
Biofeedback equipment is classified by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as medical device class II and this type of equipment/treatment has shown evidence regarding stress management in post-Covid-19 syndrome. The main objective of the study is to verify the feasibility of an HVR biofeedback training protocol in patients with long covid, and also to verify improvement induced by the technique in relation to: cognitive performance; pain perception; fatigue; quality of life; depressive and anxious symptoms
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of ShotBlocker© and cold massage on pain, crying time and physiological parameters during DaBT-IPA-Hib vaccine administration in 2-6 months old babies.
