Publication Metadata only Physical therapy enhances functions and quality of life in older patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema: A prospective experimental study(2021-03-01T00:00:00Z) Kostanoglu, A.; TARAKCI, Ela; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİSBackground: Lymphedema of the arm is one of the most common complications following breast cancer surgery. Aims: The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of complex decongestive physical therapy (CDPt) on upper extremity functions, activities of daily living (ADL), and quality of life (QoL), and secondly the effects of the degree of lymphedema on post-treatment differences in older patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). Subjects and Methods: Sixty-eight patients who had BCRL were included between 2015 and 2017. Arm function was evaluated with the Constant-Murley scale, while ADL was measured with the Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale, and QoL was measured with the Lymphedema Functioning, Disability and Health Questionnaire as pre- and post-treatment tests. The patients underwent a CDPt program for 6 weeks. Results: There were statistically significant improvements for all outcome measurements in older patients with Grade 1 and 2 lymphedemas after the treatment (P < 0.001). The Grade 1 patients had a greater difference at mobility, participation in the life and social activities, and their total scores of quality of life had a significance level of P < 0.001. Conclusion: Older patients with Grade 1 BCRL had better mobility, participation in the life, and social activities. CDPt provides enhancement of arm functions, ADL, and QoL in older patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema.Publication Metadata only Meme Kanseri ile İlişkili Üst Ekstremite Lenfödemi Olan Hastalarda Lenfödemin Şiddetinin ve Cerrahinin Tipinin Yaşam Kalitesine Etkisi(2019-10-01T00:00:00Z) Kostanoğlu, Alis; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİSPublication Metadata only The Lymphedema Functioning, Disability, and Health Questionnaire for Lower Limb Lymphedema: Translation, reliability, and validation study of the Turkish version(2017-01-01) UYSAL, ÖMER; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; Mbata, Gozde Basbug; Gokmen, Gulhan Yilmaz; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; BAŞBUĞ, GÖZDE; UYSAL, ÖMERBackground: This study aims to perform translation, reliability, and validation study of the Lymphedema Functioning, Disability, and Health Questionnaire for Lower Limb Lymphedema into the Turkish language.Publication Open Access Anxiety, Depression and Health Profile in Mothers with Children in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit(2020-04-01T00:00:00Z) Cabuk, Burcu; KOSTANOĞLU, Alis; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİSObjective: The aim of this study was to investigate, anxiety, depression and health profile among mothers of patients at pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and pediatric inpatient service (PIS). Methods: The sample consisted of a total of 40 mothers, including mothers with children in a PICU (group I) and PIS (group II). The mothers’ quality of life was measured with the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP), anxiety was measured with the State- Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and depression levels were measured with the Beck Depression Inventory (Beck-D) for the all mothers. Results: The mean age of the mothers was 31.5 years for group I and 31.25 years for group II. The mean total NHP score of the mothers was 279.0 for group I and 113.33 for group II. The mean total STAI-S score of mothers was 37.1 for group I and 36.65 for group II. The mean total of STAI-T score of mothers was 46.9 for group I and 47.75 for group II. The mean total Beck-D score was 39.7 for group I and 18.5 for group II. There was a statistically significant differences in the levels of anxiety, depression and health profile between the mothers with children in the PICU and those with children in the PIS (p<0.001). Conclusion: This study showed that having a critically ill child at a PICU unit has negative 17 effect on mothers' depression levels, state anxiety levels and health profile.Publication Metadata only Hastanede ve Evde Bakımda Çalışan Sağlık Profesyonellerinin Nonspesifik Bel Ağrılarının İncelenmesi(2020-02-01T00:00:00Z) KOSTANOĞLU, Alis; GÖZAYDINOĞLU, ŞÜHEDA; Mertekci Karagül, Tuba; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; ÖZKAN, ŞÜHEDAPublication Metadata only Bilgisayar ile Çalışanlarda Boyun ve Sırt Ağrısı Değerlendirme Sonuçları(2018-01-01T00:00:00Z) Tekeoğlu, Anıl; YELDAN, İPEK; KURU ÇOLAK, TUĞBA; AKBABA, YILDIZ; TARAKCI, DEVRİM; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; ZENGİN ALPÖZGEN, AYŞE; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİSPublication Metadata only Anxiety, Depression Stress and Health Profile in Mothers with Children in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit(2019-10-01T00:00:00Z) Çabuk, Burcu; Kostanoğlu, Alis; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİSPublication Metadata only Results of home-based modified combined decongestive therapy in patients with lower extremity lymphedema(2019-04-01) KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; RAMOĞLU, MELTEM; GÜNEREN, ETHEM; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; KAYA, MELTEM; GÜNEREN, ETHEMBackground/aim: The aim of this study is to present the results of modified combined decongestive therapy (CDT) in patients with lower extremity lymphedema (LEL).Publication Open Access Lymphoedema functioning, disability and health questionnaire Turkish version: translation, cross-cultural adaptation and validation(2016-06-01) Hoşbay, ZEYNEP; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; Tarakçı, Ela; KOSTANOĞLU, ALİS; HOŞBAY, ZEYNEPThe purpose of this study was to adapt the Lymphoedema Functioning, Disability and Health Questionnaire into the Turkish language, and to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish version in patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema. [Subjects and Methods] After the translation, inter-rater and test-retest reliability were assessed between patients and physiotherapists using the intra-class correlation coefficient. Thirty patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema were asked to fill out the Turkish version of the Lymphoedema Functioning, Disability and Health Questionnaire two times, one week apart. Internal consistency was tested using Cronbach’s alpha, and the test-retest reliability was assessed by calculating the intra-class correlation coefficient. Construct validity was investigated by comparing the results of the Lymphoedema Functioning, Disability and Health and Short Form-36 questionnaires. [Results] The test-retest reliability and inter-tester reliability of the Lymphedema Functioning, Disability and Health Questionnaire total score, physical function score, mental function score, household activities score, mobility activities score, life and social activities score were excellent. [Conclusion] The Turkish version of the Lymphoedema Functioning, Disability and Health Questionnaire was found to be valid and reliable for patients with breast cancer related lymphedema.
