NCT07442682
This research project aims to better understand the consequences of diabetes on the quality of life, respiratory function, and nutritional status of patients with cystic fibrosis followed at a Belgian reference center and to compare the quality of life of patients with cystic fibrosis depending on whether or not they have diabetes.
NCT06966609
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a prevalent pediatric neurological disorder hindering movement and posture development due to non-progressive disruptions in brain development. Motor disorders along with dysfunctions in sensations, perception, cognition, communication, behavior and secondary musculoskeletal problems are also present in children with CP. Cuevas Medek Exercises (CME) is an innovative, intensive and dynamic therapy approach for management of movement disorders. It evoke automatic postural responses in children with motor delay problems by application of distal support, triggering stronger gravity induced reactions to enhanced motor output by compelling both mind and body responses. It incorporates antigravity posture, ROM, weight-bearing, and stretching into functional exercises; for improved agility, flexibility, balance and coordination.
NCT06882044
Background and Aim: Acute myocardial infarction is a clinical condition with high mortality and morbidity rates. Ensuring patient adherence to treatments and lifestyle recommendations after discharge is crucial for effective post-acute myocardial infarction management. This study aimed to determine the impact of a mobile application on treatment adherence, self-management, and quality of life in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary ıntervention. Material and Methods: This randomized controlled and experimental study was conducted between 2021 and 2024 at the cardiology clinic of a university hospital. It included patients who had their first time with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction and underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (n=31/30). The control group was provided standard discharge education with the "Educational Booklet for Patients Who Have Had a Heart Attack". The intervention group, in addition to these practices, mobile application support was provided. They were followed up for 6 months post-discharge. Data were collected at 1, 3 and 6 months. The patient information form including characteristics related to lifestyle changes, Medication Adherence Reporting Scale (MARS), and Myocardial Infarction Dimensional Assessment Scale (MIDAS) were used in data collection.
NCT06810830
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of two internet-based therapy approaches in improving psychological well-being and reducing distress among patients diagnosed with breast cancer. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: a 7-week internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (iCBT) program or a 3-session internet-based Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Flash Technique (iEMDR-FT) within a week. Both interventions will be delivered online in a group format under the guidance of experienced therapists. Participants' mental health status-including anxiety, depression, traumatic stress, fear of cancer recurrence, and overall quality of life-will be assessed before the intervention, immediately after completion, and again at a 3-month follow-up. The results of this study are expected to provide valuable insights into how digital psychotherapy methods can help breast cancer patients cope with emotional challenges during their treatment. The findings will also inform the development of future online psychosocial support models in oncology.
NCT06772922
Non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) affect approximately 30% of the adult global population, significantly impacting respiratory function and quality of life. Pulmonary and cardiovascular rehabilitation has proven to be an effective therapeutic intervention for managing respiratory symptoms and cardiovascular and improving functional capacity in patients with chronic respiratory conditions. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of the pulmonary and cardiovascular rehabilitation program on users of the physical therapy service of CECOM of UNICAMP related to functional capacity, quality of life and respiratory variables after 3 months of the program. Candidates for the pulmonary rehabilitation program are users diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary emphysema, pulmonary fibrosis, asthma or other lung disease. Candidates for the cardiovascular rehabilitation program are users diagnosed with: infarction (AMI), myocardial revascularization surgery, coronary angioplasty, stable angina, valve replacement, chronic heart failure and who meet the criteria for phase III of cardiovascular rehabilitation. They should be referred to physical therapy by the cardiologist with complementary exams and exercise test. The program's assessment will consist of: anamnesis, analysis and recording of complementary exams, physical assessment (weight, height, BMI, cardiac and pulmonary auscultation, blood pressure, heart rate, peripheral oxygen saturation, respiratory muscle strength), functional capacity (six-minute walk test) and quality of life (questionnaire). The program will include aerobic exercises on a treadmill or stationary bike with an intensity between 50-70% of the reserve HR, below the ischemic thresholds. It will also include peripheral muscle strength exercises for the upper and lower limbs, in addition to respiratory muscle training for lung disease patients.
