Filter by:Total knee arthroplasty (TKA); It is frequently applied to adults, especially those over the age of 55. Total knee arthroplasty surgery is among the surgeries with a high satisfaction rate for the patient, although complications can develop and this rate varies between 1.65-11.3%. It has a privileged place in the prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of the problems and complications that may occur. In this way, patients' anxiety will be reduced, self-care competence will be provided, recovery process will be accelerated, quality of life and care satisfaction will increase. In this context, the training, information, skill-building, counseling and care practice that the nurse will provide to the patient; With the results to be obtained from this study, patients with TKA can be given pre-operative and post-operative nursing care using a nurse coaching strategy, and patients' anxiety level, pain control, patient satisfaction It is predicted to have a positive effect on self-care ability and re-hospitalization rates. Thus, it is thought that both quality healthcare services will be provided and will contribute to the creation of evidence-based data. It is thought that the study will also contribute to the dissemination of the pre-operative and postoperative nurse coaching strategy in patients undergoing TKA, and will guide the planning of nursing education. This study is an experimental study to determine the effect of continuous nursing care given with a coaching strategy to patients scheduled for TKA surgery on anxiety, pain, self-care ability, satisfaction, and re-hospitalization. The study will be carried out in Konya Private Hospital. Data collection time is set as September-December 2020. Data will be collected by the researcher using the Diagnostic questionnaire form, State Anxiety Scale, Visual Analog Scale, Newcastle Nursing Care Satisfaction Scale, Modified Barthel index and Self-Care Ability Scale. In this context, the training, information, skill-building, counseling and care practice that the nurse will provide to the patient; It will contribute to achieving the desired results by positively affecting both the success of the surgery and the healing process of the patient.
The purpose of this prospective, observational study is to assess the feasibility of patient-controlled sedation (PCS) for implantation of subcutaneous venous ports (SVP).
Implant placement in the posterior part of the maxilla is frequently compromised or impossible due to atrophy of the alveolar process and pneumatisation of the maxillary sinus. Therefore, alveolar ridge augmentation is frequently necessary before or in conjunction with implant placement. The most commonly used method to augment the maxillary premolar and molar region involves the maxillary sinus floor augmentation applying the lateral window technique with a grafting material. However, the lateral window technique is associated with prolonged patient treatment time and increased morbidity. Thus, osteotome-mediated sinus floor elevation (OSFE) with or without the use of a grafting material has been advocated, when the residual bone height is more than 6 mm. OSFE involves preparation of implant site through the use of concave osteotomes and elevation of the maxillary sinus floor. The survival of suprastructure and implants after OSFE with or without the use of a grafting material has never been assessed in long-term randomized controlled trials. A long-term study concluded that OSFE with no grafting material is a predictable treatment modality. High short-term implant survival rates after OSFE with or without the use of a grafting material have been reported in systematic reviews. However, the amount of new bone formation after OSFE with the use of a grafting material is significantly higher compared to the use of no grafting material, as documented in a systematic review. Harvesting of autogenous bone graft is associated with risk of donor site morbidity and bone substitutes of natural transplants involves a risk of contamination, activation of host immune system and disease transmission as well as they can be refused by patients for religious reasons or because they are in contrast with chosen lifestyle. Therefore, the objective of the present study is to test the H0-hypothesis of no difference in the long-term implant treatment outcome after OSFE with Bio-Oss Collagen compared with the use of no grafting material. A total of 40 consecutively healthy patients with a missing posterior tooth in the maxilla will be allocated at random to OSFE with Bio-Oss Collagen or no grafting material and simultaneous implant placement. Clinical and/or radiographical evaluation using periapical radiographs and Cone Beam Computer Tomography (CBCT) will be performed preoperatively, immediate postoperatively, after abutment connection, after prosthetic rehabilitation, one year, three years and five years after loading to assess the long-term implant treatment outcome and the volumetric changes of the augmented area. The primary outcome will include survival of suprastructures, survival of implants, volumetric stability of the augmented area, peri-implant marginal bone level, oral health related quality of life, and complications related to the two treatment modalities.
Introduction: According to World Health Organization data, it is estimated that more than 422 million people have diabetes. In Ecuador, diabetes is the second cause of death, only after ischemic heart disease, and is the first chronic non-communicable disease. The complexity of the pathology, its difficult management and the patient's commitment and involvement in their own care has led health systems to seek mechanisms to activate patients. Currently, tools have been developed, Patient Reported Experience Measures (PREM) and Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROM), which seek to reduce this gap between patient and health system. Objectives: To develop and validate PREM and PROM tools for diabetes in the Ecuadorian context. To achieve better clinical results and greater patient satisfaction with the system, thus adding value to the care process of patients with diabetes. Method: This is a study with two components. The first component will focus on the design and validation of PREM and PROM tools in Ecuador. A second component, consisting of a prospective cohort study for the corresponding implementation of the questionnaires obtained and their validation. Expected results: It is expected to involve patients in the care process, thus establishing a framework for achieving better clinical outcomes and greater patient satisfaction with the system.
Systemic therapy (i.e Androgen Deprivation Therapy with Docetaxel, Enzalutamide, Apalutamide or Abiraterone Acetate) has increased overall survival in men with hormone-sensitive metastatic prostate cancer. Novel local cytoreductive treatments and metastasis directed therapy are being evaluated, these can confer additional harm, but might improve survival. We aim to elicit men's preferences for and willingness to accept trade-offs between potential improved survival and cytoreductive treatment risks using a 'discrete choice experiment'.
Postoperative quality of recovery (QoR) could be related to anesthesia and postoperative analgesia. This study is exploring early QoR after radical prostatectomy in the two groups of anesthesia. The first group had a light general anesthesia with lumbal epidural anesthesia and postoperative epidural analgesia with morphine and ropivacaine. The second group had general anesthesia and a continuous postoperative analgesia with tramadol. The postoperative QoR was evaluated 24 hours after surgery.
The aim of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of chemo-mechanical caries removal using Papacarie-Duo and Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) in reducing dental pain in pregnant women.
A study looking at the feasibility of doing a full-scale RCT that investigates the use of tranexamic acid intravesically prior to continuous bladder irrigation treatment in the emergency department for urinary retention due to clots. We want to know: - patient experience and acceptability of the intervention - study procedures (recruitment, site appropriateness, staff engagement) - safety data - identify resource use
Postoperative restrictions are often based on expert opinion and "common sense". There is a wide variety in the recommended activity limitation amongst pelvic floor surgeons. Many patients undergo urogynecologic procedures to improve their quality of life, and these additional restrictions decrease their quality of life in the short term. Our hypothesis is that unrestricted activity after a mid-urethral sling will not negatively impact a patient's recovery or likelihood of surgical success. Eligible participants will be randomized to no postoperative instructions or traditional postoperative instructions. Patients will be followed up at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 6 months postoperatively. Data will be collected throughout the follow up period, but the primary endpoint is at 6 months. At the 6 month visit, subjects' activity level, leakage symptoms, and postoperative satisfaction will be assessed.
