Filter by:Acute Decompensated Heart Failure ADHF is one of the leading causes of hospitalization. ADHF is a growing global health problem affecting more than 26 million individuals worldwide Acute Kidney Injury AKI is a common event in the natural disease history of patients with Heart Failure HF, The clinical importance of the co-existence of acute cardiac and renal dysfunction, known as acute cardiorenal syndrome CRS, and its management have recieved great attention recently Various studies have employed different criteria to define and calssify AKI. According to Risk, Injury, and Failure; and Loss, and End-stage kidney disease RIFLE criteria formulated by the Acute Dialyisis Quality Initiative ADQI AKI can be divided into five stages; renal injury risk, renal impairment, renal failure, renal function loss, and end stage kidney disease
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of cryotherapy and warm water sitz bath in post-hemorrhoidectomy wound care. It is a prospective, randomized controlled trial that will assess the impact of these two methods on postoperative pain, analgesic use, wound separation, and swelling.
Neurogenic bladder is a condition that occurs due to nerve damage or congenital problems and causes urination disorders. Nowadays, in individuals diagnosed with neurogenic bladder, Clean Intermittent Catheterization is often used to evacuate the urine accumulated in the bladder. Clean Intermittent Catheterization(CIC) is a simple, safe and effective method in which the catheter is placed through the meatus. In this application, the catheter is removed without waiting after urine drainage is achieved. This process is usually performed on its own. Since IC(Intermittent Catheterization) is a procedure performed on the bladder, it may cause some complications. IC application must be performed successfully to prevent or reduce complications. The success of the technique largely depends on patient education and follow-up. Sometimes patients may not be able to come to the hospital for follow-up and feedback after IC training. Innovations are needed to ensure the continuation of distance education so that the education of patients who cannot come to the hospital is not incomplete. The literature includes brochures, videos, websites and some mobile applications for IC training. However, no application has been found that monitors patients' urine amounts. This research was planned to examine the effect of clean intermittent catheterization training given via mobile application to individuals with spinal cord injury on their quality of life and compliance.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare high ankle block and general anesthesia on wound recovery and ankle blood flow perfusion after diabetes foot surgery in diabetics. The main questions it aims to answer are: - weather the high ankle block can fast wound recovery after the surgery - weather the high ankle block can improve ankle blood flow perfusion after the surgery Participants will receive either high ankle block or general anesthesia during surgery. After the operation, foot ulcer area and pulse perfusion index will be measured on the postoperative day of 1 and 14; lower limb hemodynamic parameters will be measured by ultrasound on the postoperative days of 1, 7, and 14. Researchers will compare high ankle block and general anesthesia to see if they have the different on the wound recovery and blood flow perfusion of the patients' foot.
This is a pilot and feasibility study for a mobile phone-delivered intervention for memory, called MEMI (memory ecological momentary intervention), that was designed to support adults with chronic traumatic brain injury with their memory. The goal of the study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of MEMI and to assess preliminary efficacy as to whether technology-delivered spaced memory retrieval opportunities improve memory in people with and without a history of chronic traumatic brain injury.
The purpose of this observational study is to find out the impact of pressure injury education on the knowledge level of pediatric intensive care nurses and the likelihood of pediatric pressure injury occurrence. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does pressure injury education increase nurses knowledge level on pediatric pressure injuries? - Does the rate of pediatric pressure injuries decrease after the education? The researcher will compare nurses working in two separate pediatric intensive care units where similar patients are treated to see if planned education on pressure injuries affects nurses knowledge level and the rate of pediatric pressure injuries. - Volunteer nurses participating in the study will answer pressure injury survey questions prepared by the researcher. - Nurses in the intervention group will attend planned education sessions provided by the researcher. - Two weeks after the completion of the education sessions, all nurses in the intervention and control groups who wish to continue participating in the study will answer the pressure injury survey questions prepared by the researcher again.
Collect data on various wound treatments and their related wound healing process, in real life settings. Analyze the safety and efficacy of wound treatments, including: advanced biological/synthetic grafts and standard of wound care treatments.
This study is a randomized controlled trial at eight hospitals within the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center-UPMC system. The project will assess the efficacy of a clinical surveillance system augmented with real-time predictive analytics to support a pharmacist-led intervention delivered to attending physicians (primary service) to reduce the progression and complications of drug-associated acute kidney injury (D-AKI) in hospitalized (non-ICU) adults.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare effects of marijuana or cannabis on neuropathic pain and spasticity in spinal cord injury patients. The main question is: Does the cannabis product from KhonKaen University reduce neuropathic pain and spasticity in spinal cord injury patients? The research design is a crossover study. The participants will be randomly into 2 groups: group 1 and group 2. The participants received either cannabis or placebo for 2 weeks. After completing treatment, participants were swapped to the other group for 2 weeks, a wash-out period is 2 weeks. The outcome measurements are pain and spasticity.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the capacity of allogenic mesenchymal stromal cells form bone marrow (BM-MSC) or adipose tissue(Ad-MSC) to induce wound healing in patients with burn wounds.
