Filter by:To evaluate the impact of a specific nursing management (personalized and close, through consultation at the hospital, at home or by phone) monitoring in post-hospitalization, the suicide attempt of recurrence and suicidal crisis, in the year following a suicide attempt in patients suffering from a mood disorder (unipolar or bipolar) or reactive depression.
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of a 5-week standardized cognitive behavioral treatment of stress management conducted via e-learning or face-to-face on patients responding to the diagnosis of adjustment disorder with anxiety (ADA) according to the DSM- 5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fifth Edition) criteria .
Stress disorders in form of adjustment disorder and burnout syndrom are highly prevalent and cause substantial suffering. Prior evidence suggest that these disorders may be effectively treated with cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), but access to psychological treatment is limited. One possible solution is to provide therapy via the Internet, which has been shown to be effective for anxiety disorders and depression. In the present study, we will investigate the efficacy of Internet-based CBT (ICBT) for adjustment disorders and burnout syndrom in a randomized controlled trial (N=100). Participants will be randomized to active treatment (n=50) or a control condition on waiting list.
The purpose of this study is to determine the differential efficacy of two ways of applying homework assignments in the treatment of Adjustment Disorders: 1) using an Internet-based emotional regulation therapy system (TEO) and 2) in the traditional way (using reading and audio materials). The principal hypothesis is that both treatment conditions (TEO and Traditional) will show a similar efficacy. All participants will improve significantly on all outcome measures, regardless the type of homework assigned (TEO or Traditional) with no differences between them.
The purpose of this pilot-study is to evaluate a cognitive behavioral method "Psychological First Aid" used with a group of children (11-16 years) in high risk of developing psychological problems. Participants are recruited from a low-threshold program ("The Children's House in Oslo") where counseling is given to children suspected of being physically or sexually abused, or having witnessed domestic violence. The study includes twelve children and teenagers that receive 2 to 6 sessions of counseling. Psychological problems (e.g. anxiety, depression, reactions to trauma) and quality of life will be assessed at pre- post and follow-up (after 3, 6 and 12 months). In addition, some symptoms of will be assessed daily.
This project evaluates the outcomes of a work rehabilitation program, Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDO), for women with stress-related disorders. The ReDO intervention focuses on how people compose their everyday lives. The basic idea is that re-structuring of an individual's lifestyle and pattern of daily occupations will lead to a healthier balance between the occupations of everyday life, and that this balance will promote wellness and increased work capacity. The program is group based and comprises 16 weeks. The aim is to evaluate ReDO for women with stress-related disorders. The project, which covers the time period from entering the program to a 12-month follow-up, is a quasi-experimental study. 42 women who entered the program and fitted the selection criteria were included. A matched comparison group was selected among those clients at the Social Insurance Office who get "care-as-usual" (CAU). Both groups are followed prospectively and are compared regarding return to work, sick leave, and different aspects of health and well-being. The hypothesis is that the ReDO group will improve more than the CAU group in all these respects.
The primary aim of this study is to examine whether adolescent depression and the family context in which it develops is best treated using an individual adolescent intervention or an intervention that includes both the adolescent and the parents. This will be accomplished by conducting a randomized controlled pilot study of Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Depressed Adolescents (IPT-A) in comparison to Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Depressed Adolescents and Parents (IPT-AP).
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility and acceptability of an adaptation of Interpersonal Psychotherapy for Depressed Adolescents (IPT-A) that includes greater and more structured involvement of the parents in the treatment.
This is a registry for patients who have a risk-reduction mastectomy ("prophylactic mastectomy") due to being at high risk for developing breast cancer, followed by breast reconstruction. Eligible patients include those who have a breast cancer-related gene, a strong family history of breast cancer, or a personal history of high-risk conditions such as cancer in the other breast or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Patients are enrolled in the registry before surgery, and are followed for up to ten years afterwards. In addition to studying medical outcomes, we will periodically survey patients for quality-of-life issues and psychological well-being. There is no compensation for being enrolled in this registry. This registry is conducted through the Department of Plastic Surgery at Georgetown University Hospital, and is a sub-registry to the Fisher Familial Cancer Registry at the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center at Georgetown University.
This study was developed in order to assess the effects of risperidone (Risperdal) as compared with placebo on cognitive-motor performance (attention, memory, and hand steadiness) and body movements. We propose to study the effects of risperidone on cognitive-motor performance in children already medicated for severe conduct problems. We would also like to look at safety by assessing these children for dyskinetic movements. We already have a sizable cohort of children maintained on risperidone. Our hypotheses are as follows: 1. Risperidone will have no adverse effects on cognitive-motor performance in children who have received maintenance therapy for 4 to 20 months. 2. Children tested during placebo will show no more dyskinetic movements than during risperidone treatment (i.e., there will be no unmasking of tardive dyskinesia).
