Filter by:The investigators planned to investigate the effect of close monitoring on compliance and the factors affecting compliance among patients receiving PAP treatment due to OSA.This study was a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled study approved by the hospital's ethics committee.One hundred twenty-eight patients were randomized as group one or two as group 1 is the study and group 2 is the control group. The first group was called by phone on the 15th day to ask if there were any complaints or problems with the device. Sequentially, they were called for controls at the end of the first, third, and sixth months. The second group was accepted as the control group, following our clinic's standard procedure in the first and sixth months. The patients who came to the control were asked if there were any problems with the device and any difficulties in use, and they were again informed about the devices and masks.
The objective of this ancillary study of the MEET-OS study is to assess the technical feasibility of using Biobeat® monitoring devices after ambulatory surgery at high risk of complications. The secondary objectives are to assess: i) the patient's experience and tolerance ii) the occurrence of clinical disturbances in the patients's home after ambulatory surgery with high risk of postoperative complications iii) to determine the impact of the data obtained with the monitoring devices on the clinical care decisions during postoperative follow-up.
To explore the effect of the Stoma Mobile application-based training method on the psychosocial adjustment, self-efficacy, and development of peristomal skin complications in individuals with a stoma. Quasi-experimental study with a post-test control group. Patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly selected. While the experimental group (n=30) received training with the Stoma Mobile application, the control group (n=30) received training with the booklet. Stoma compliance, self-efficacy level, and the presence of complications were compared in both groups in the first and third months after discharge. H11: Individuals who receive stoma care training via STOMA-M will have a higher adaptation to stomas than individuals who receive stoma care training via a booklet. H12: The SE levels of individuals who receive stoma care training via STOMA-M will be higher than those who receive stoma care training via a booklet. H13: Peristomal skin complications of individuals who receive stoma care training via STOMA-M will be lower than those who receive stoma care training via a booklet. The population of the study included patients who had a stoma for the first time, were in a university hospital in Istanbul between December 2020 and December 2021, and who were 18 years of age and older, literate, without any physical and psychological disabilities, able to use smartphones, and willing to participate in the study. Patients who were in the same room or underwent a urostomy were not included in the study. The experimental group using the Stoma Health Mobile application had higher psychosocial adjustment and self-efficacy scores than the control group, and the peristomal skin lesion complication rate was lower than that of the control group. Social self-efficacy positively affects stoma compliance, and the Stoma Mobile application positively affects the level of social self-efficacy and adaptation of ostomates to the stoma
The study was conducted to determine the effect of self-care supported motivational interviewing on patients receiving hemodialysis treatment on self-care power, disease compliance and metabolic variables. The study was completed with 77 patients. In the collection of data; Personal Information Form, Self-Care Strength Scale, Chronic Disease Adjustment Scale and Patient-Specific Metabolic Variables Form were used.
this study is a randomized clinical trial to evaluate the effect of sending weekly reminders to patients undergoing fixed orthodontic appliance treatment. two groups will be formed and participants of the study will be divided between the two groups randomly. the intervention group will receive weekly reminders about the importance of oral hygiene and appliance care with adherence to scheduled appointments. the difference between these parameters will be evaluated between the control and intervention groups to describe the importance of weekly reminders to enhance the compliance and cooperation of the patient. the oral hygiene of the patient will include plaque level(plaque index), gingival statue level( bleeding index), and white spot lesion . appliance care will be recorded when in case of bracket failure and appointments missed will also be recorded .
In intensive care units, the sleep quality of patients decreases considerably due to reasons such as alarm sounds of some special devices, the number of healthcare professionals working in comparison to other clinics, their circulation is high, and the lights are constantly on.Studies conducted in intensive care units to facilitate the transition of patients to sleep and to improve sleep quality;has revealed that non-pharmacological applications increase sleep time and quality, reduce sleep disturbance,delirium,post-traumatic stress disorder and duration of stay in the intensive care unit.Although wearing earplugs and eye masks is a cost-effective and safe method and can improve perceived sleep quality in patients,eye masks and ear plugs are sometimes not comfortable.While the ear plugs dislocate during night sleep may cause the patients to wake up again,there are also situations such as the eye masks not being sized properly for the patients' eyes,and the part of the mask surrounding the head is thin and tense, disturbing the patient.By eliminating this situation that disturbs the patients, other solutions are needed to increase the quality of sleep without being affected by intensive care light and noise. The project was planned to determine the effect of the ergonomic sleep mask on the sleep quality and comfort of patients in surgical patients whose treatment and care continues in intensive care units.The sample of the project consists of 128 patients by performing power analysis.Patients will be divided into two groups as 64 randomized patients in the control and experimental groups by applying block randomization.While there is no application to the experimental and control groups on the first night, an ergonomic sleep mask will be worn to the experimental group,and an ear plug and eye mask will be worn to the control group.At the end of the first night and the second night, the sleep quality of the patients will be evaluated with the 'Richard Campell Sleep Scale' and their comfort levels with the 'Visual Analogue Scale'.The data of the project will be collected using the Patient Information Form prepared in accordance with the literature. In the analysis of the data,Mann-Whitney U test, t test in independent groups, one-way ANOVA test and correlation analysis will be done.
Assessment of types and intensity of unpleasant experiences pre-, intra-, and postoperatively in the patients undergoing cataract surgery, using especially designed questionnaire. Strategic aim: formulation of algorithm and modification of perioperative approach to patient qualified to undergo phacoemulsification procedure.
It was aimed to study the effect of video assisted education about endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreaticography (ERCP) on anxiety levels of patients who planned to undergo ERCP for any reason.Video revealing the ERCP procedure was shown to the patients in one group and not shown to the other. Then anxiety levels and pain scores have been obtained before and after the procedure in both groups
Acute gastrointestinal bleeding is a common emergency with significant morbidity, mortality, and cost. Appropriate risk stratification of patients presenting with acute gastrointestinal bleeding aids in the triage of patients to determine need for hospital admission and the need for emergency endoscopic intervention. Increased blood lactate levels are common in critically ill patients. Our study will evaluate the usefulness of lactate measurements on resources utilisation ( intensive care unit admission, length of hospital stay) and other patient-oriented outcomes ( need for transfusion and endoscopy) in patients with acute gastrointestinal bleeding.
The purpose of this study is to test if a patient can be directly connected to a quality assurance (QA) database, traditionally known as a registry. Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) data will be entered into the database directly from a patient's mobile phone from their index procedure for 12 months. The investigators hope this study to be a "proof of concept" for such a distributed registry and evaluate 1) consistency of data acquisition, 2) engagement of patients, 3) overall value of patient-reported outcomes to enhance long term follow up.
