Comparison of the Effect of Two Methods on Laryngeal Edema in Endotracheal Cuff Inflation

In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate perioperative laryngeal edema in patients undergoing lumbar stabilization surgery in the pron position, which the investigators use in our routine anesthesia practice, by using conventional and manometry measurement methods and ultrasonography, which the investigators also use frequently in our routine, and to evaluate complications related to laryngeal edema in postoperative service follow-up.

Ultrasound-Guided Erector Spinae Plane Block in Major Spinal Surgery

This study aims to evaluate the effects of ultrasound-guided bilateral erector spinae plane block on intraoperative pain control and bleeding in patients undergoing major spinal surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups: one group will receive the Erector Spinae Plane block, while the other group will receive standard pain management. Primary outcomes include postoperative pain levels and intraoperative blood loss. This study seeks to determine whether the Erector Spinae Plane Block technique positively contributes to patient recovery and reduces bleeding complications.

The Effect of Spinal Stabilization Training in Women With Dysmenorrhea

The study, designed as a randomized controlled experimental trial, was conducted at Tonya Vocational School. Institutional approval was obtained to carry out the study at Tonya Vocational School (Appendix-). Participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and voluntarily agreed to participate were required to sign an informed consent form prior to the initiation of the study. Following the acquisition of informed consent, 50 women with dysmenorrhea, identified based on the WaLIDD score, were randomly allocated into two groups using a simple randomization method (sealed envelope): 25 participants in the experimental group and 25 in the control group.Baseline assessments were performed by the same researcher within the first week immediately following the most recent menstrual period, prior to the commencement of the intervention. Participants' demographic characteristics and menstrual cycle information were recorded using a data collection form before the exercise intervention. Pain intensity was evaluated using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS); menstrual symptom severity using the Menstrual Symptom Scale; body awareness using the Body Awareness Questionnaire; muscle endurance using the McGill trunk endurance tests; lumbopelvic mobility using the Modified Schober test; activities of daily living using the Lawton-Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale; problem-solving skills using the Problem Solving Inventory; decision-making styles using the Melbourne Decision Making Questionnaire; quality of life using the SF-12 questionnaire; and physical activity levels using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF). All measurements were conducted within the first week immediately following the most recent menstrual period, both before (baseline assessment) and after (post-intervention assessment) the exercise program.
