A listing of Kagithane Istanbul, Turkey clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
This prospective, randomized, single-blind controlled study aims to evaluate the effect of bupivacaine injection at trocar entry sites and the vaginal cuff on postoperative pain in patients undergoing total laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign gynecologic conditions. Postoperative pain after laparoscopic hysterectomy may arise from trocar insertion sites and surgical manipulation of …
Post-hospitalization behavioral changes are common in children after surgery and general anesthesia and may persist for varying durations depending on individual and perioperative factors. The Post-Hospitalization Behavior Questionnaire (PHBQ) is a well-validated instrument widely used to evaluate negative postoperative behavioral changes in pediatric patients following hospitalization or surgical procedures. Although …
This study aims to compare the effects of core stabilization exercises, an amplitude-based exercise program derived from LSVT BIG principles, and their combination on dynamic balance in community-dwelling healthy older adults aged 65 years and above. Secondary outcomes include functional mobility, fear of falling, reaction time, and quality of life. …
Dysfunctional breathing is a common and clinically relevant problem in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), contributing to increased dyspnea perception, reduced exercise tolerance, and impaired quality of life. The Nijmegen Questionnaire (NQ) is a widely used symptom-based instrument for screening dysfunctional breathing; however, a validated Turkish version for …
During general anesthesia, particularly in patients undergoing spine surgery in the prone (face-down) position, increased intrathoracic and abdominal pressure may reduce lung compliance and promote the development of atelectasis (partial lung collapse). Atelectasis can impair intraoperative oxygenation and may increase the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. Alveolar recruitment maneuvers (ARM) …
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with significant maternal and fetal complications. The standard diagnostic test for GDM is the 75-gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). However, pregnant women who have undergone bariatric surgery may not tolerate OGTT due to dumping syndrome and gastrointestinal side effects. This creates diagnostic challenges …
Urinary catheterization is a common nursing procedure used to drain urine from the bladder. When performed with the correct indications and sterile technique, it can help protect a patient's health. However, errors during catheter insertion may lead to serious complications, especially catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs). These infections are among …
This study aims to investigate the relationship between cervical position sense, core stabilization, and postural balance in university students aged 18-30 years with Upper Crossed Syndrome (UCS). Upper Crossed Syndrome is a common musculoskeletal disorder characterized by muscle imbalance, including weakness of the deep cervical flexors, middle and lower trapezius, …
This study aims to investigate the effects of whole-body electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) applied to the trunk and lower extremity muscles on pelvic floor muscle strength in healthy women. Since pelvic floor muscles are deep-seated and can be difficult to activate voluntarily, this research explores whether stimulating related muscle groups …
The study aimed to explore the link between urinary incontinence (UI) severity in patients with multiple sclerosis (PwMS), electromyography (EMG) findings, and other relevant factors.
