Filter by:Mental practice (both in isolation and also in combination with real practice) has been shown to improve somatosensory and motor variables but so far no study has taken it into the study of women's health. Through the present study the investigators want to offer some interesting data regarding the effectiveness of mental practice combined with physical practice.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the telemedicine practices for contraceptive counseling given to pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does family planning counseling given to pregnant women by using telemedicine practices have an effect on the knowledge level about family planning? - Is family planning counseling given to pregnant women by using telemedicine practices effective on satisfaction with family planning services? Participants have attended to contraceptive counseling video call sessions provided via WhatsApp application and they have the opportunity to see the consultant and her materials during these sessions. After these sessions (two weeks later), contraceptive counseling video call session has been repeated, and at the end of this second session, women have been asked to answer the questions in the "Family Planning Knowledge Level Form" and the "Family Planning Services Satisfaction Scale". There is a comparison group (a control group) in this study, and no intervention was made to the women in the control group other than the routine services given in primary care settings. Researchers will compare the experimental group with control group to see if the telemedicine practices are effective in increasing the knowledge level of pregnant women about family planning and in the satisfaction of family planning services provided by primary health care settings.
The purpose of the present randomized controlled trial is to explore the effectiveness of a 12-month well woman digital health intervention leveraging Precision Nudging - the application of behavioral science and reinforcement learning to create individualized, tailored health messaging at scale that matches the right message to the right person at the right time - in promoting behavior change. Specifically, it is hypothesized that scaling behavioral science through reinforcement learning will be more effective at motivating participants to engage with well woman messages and to schedule and to attend a well woman visit compared to a standard of care message.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of Pilates exercise and Whatsapp text message-based support program on PMS symptoms experienced by university female students.
To train ultrasound technologists (equivalently called sonographers) in remote ultrasound guidance. To capture imaging of the gynecologic organs visible on home ultrasound and pertinent to clinical care, specifically the ovaries and uterus. To train the independent readers, both obstetricians & gynecologists (OB/GYNs) and reproductive endocrinologists (REIs), who will evaluate home ultrasound images over time in subsequent clinical trials.
Modern living and physical inactivity results in many ailments, including obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and inflammatory issues. Though there are a lot of studies on physical training, there is little detail on hybrid training or electrical and voluntary contractions of the musculature. This study investigated the efficiency of hybrid training in biochemistry, ultrasound, and proinflammatory outcomes in middle-aged sedentary and obese women with NAFLD.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the effects of virtual reality and nature sounds on pain and anxiety during hysterosalpingography.
To reveal the effects of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) applied over the thigh on incontinence symptoms, pelvic floor muscle function, bladder function, quality of life and sexual function in women with urge urinary incontinence (UUI) symptoms. Our goal is to contribute to the literature on electrical stimulation (ES) applications used in UUI treatment. Female patients aged 18-65 years with UUI symptoms will be included in the study. Patients will be divided into 2 groups randomly. The first group will be given Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) and lifestyle suggestions (LSS) (NMES group). The second group will be given sham NMES in addition to LSS (SHAM ES group). Information about bladder irritants, voiding posture and behavior, weight control and pelvic floor muscle training will be provided in the LSS. ES applications will be performed 3 days a week for 30 minutes per session for 8 weeks. All participants will be evaluated pretreatment, after the 4th week and posttreatment. Pelvic floor muscle function will evulate with the Modified Oxford Scale. In addition, women's bladder function with the urinary diary for 3 days, incontinence symptoms with the International Incontinence Consultation Questionnaire-Short Form (ICIQ-SF) and the Coital Incontinence Score (CIS), quality of life with the King Health Questionnaire (KHQ) and Sexual Function will be evaluated with Pelvic Organ Prolapse/Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire (PISQ-12). At the end of the 8th week, both the Subjective perception of improvement and treatment satisfaction of the patients will be questioned
This study seeks to test a web-based decision support tool developed to enhance low-income women's ability to make informed decisions about tubal sterilization that align with their preferences, values and reproductive goals. Half of participants will receive usual care, while the other half will use the web-based decision aid plus usual care. The investigators hypothesize that compared to women who receive usual care alone, women randomized to the decision aid arm will have greater knowledge about sterilization and alternative options, lower decisional conflict, and will be more satisfied with their contraceptive decision at 3-month follow-up.
Over one-third of rural Ghanaians live below the poverty line and women and children living in poverty are at the highest risk of poor nutrition and health. Sustained integrated approaches that increase agricultural productivity and value addition, diversify incomes, and enhance knowledge and skills among all stakeholders are required to improve the well-being of rural communities. There exists a unique opportunity, building on the results of the Nutrition Links (NL) project, to test sustainable district-level approaches that support women agripreneurs and address existing gender inequities in rural Ghana. This project will test different approaches to enhance the sustainability of activities that will (i) increase access to resources and services for agricultural production and, where relevant, value addition for women, (ii) facilitate access to markets that will enhance women's entrepreneurship, and (iii) help district partners integrate targets and activities to meet a common goal. The 3-y project will include quantitative and qualitative data collection to implement a trial to test a sustainable approach for engaging female agripreneurs in farmers' associations and improving their business successes, with different approaches to integrate new activities in district institutions' programs. The project will be guided by the team of institutions working together with district stakeholders to improve the quality of life of rural Ghanaian women agripreneurs and their families.
