The Effect of AI Training on Arthroscopy Outcomes

This study is planned to determine the effects of AI-assisted regional training on surgical anxiety, fear, postoperative pain, and comfort levels in patients undergoing arthroscopy. It will be designed as a prospective, observational, and intervention-based clinical trial. Necessary ethical and institutional permissions will be obtained before the start of the research. Ethical Approvals and Permissions were obtained from the Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University Ethics Committee, Niğde Provincial Health Directorate, and Ömer Halisdemir Training and Research Hospital. The participants are adult patients undergoing arthroscopy surgery. Informed consent will be obtained for participation in the study. Intervention: AI-assisted regional training will be applied before arthroscopy. Data Collection Tools: Pre-Assessment Form, Personal Information Form, Surgical Fear Scale, Surgical Anxiety Scale for Adult Patients, Postpartum Comfort Scale, and Perianesthesia Comfort Scale will be used. Data Analysis: Data will be evaluated using the IBM SPSS Statistics 24 software package. Appropriate statistical analysis methods will be used.

TENS for Anxiety, Pain, and Satisfaction After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

This study is designed to evaluate whether Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) can improve recovery for patients undergoing laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy). TENS is a non-invasive method that uses mild electrical currents applied through the skin to stimulate nerves. The main goals of the study are to determine if TENS can: Reduce surgical anxiety before and during the procedure Decrease postoperative pain after surgery Improve overall patient satisfaction with their surgical experience Patients who participate will receive standard surgical care, and some will also receive TENS therapy. Outcomes will be measured using patient questionnaires and clinical assessments during the hospital stay and follow-up period. By comparing patients who receive TENS with those who do not, the study aims to provide evidence on whether this simple technique can enhance comfort and recovery after gallbladder surgery.
