Dementia is an increasing health challenge among elderly citizens in Denmark. An estimated 87,000 Danes live with dementia, and this number is expected to increase to 130,000 in 2030. Psychiatric symptoms and behavioral changes decrease quality of life for patients and their spouses and is a challenge for caretakers. Behavior changes include agitation which can be divided in four sub-groups: 1) physical aggression, 2) physical non-aggression, 3) verbal aggression, and 4) verbal non-aggression. Pharmaceutical management of behavioral changes is common and may be associated with negative side-effects including drowsiness and falls. Though non-pharmaceutical interventions such as music, massage and social activities have been recommended the underlying evidence is limited. In this randomized feasibility trial, we will investigate the feasibility and acceptability of therapeutic touch aiming to reduce agitated behavior in people living with dementia in a nursing home that specializes in the care of people living with severe dementia. The success criteria of this randomized feasibility trial are as follows: 1. Nursing home residents can be recruited and accept the treatment 'CAlming Touch for People with Agitation or Other Behavioral Symptoms of DEMentia' (CADEM) and complete the feasibility project's test protocol. 2. The treatment concept, which involves the nursing staff in charge of the follow-up treatment, can be implemented in practice. 3. The treatment (CADEM) shows a tendency towards less restless and aggressive behavior for demented citizens evaluated based on a validated measuring tool.
This is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized withdrawal study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AXS-05 compared to placebo in the treatment of agitation symptoms in subjects with agitation associated with Alzheimer's disease.
In this quality improvement project, our objectives were to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of using music as an adjunct to or replacement of pharmacological interventions for patient agitation on an inpatient psychiatric unit. We hypothesized that music availability would help to reduce agitation and reduce the amount of as-needed medications used for cases of patient agitation.
This is a definitive study to support the safety and efficacy evaluation of BXCL501 for the acute treatment of agitation in bipolar disorder. The BXCL501-302 study is designed to characterize the efficacy, safety and tolerability of BXCL501 (sublingual film formulation of DEX, HCl) in agitation associated with bipolar disorder.
This is an adaptive Phase 1b/2 trial design. It is randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple ascending dose study assessing efficacy, pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of BXCL-501 dosing in adult (65 years and older) males and females with acute agitation associated with dementia. Evaluation of 3 doses are planned.
Agitation in the intensive care unit is motor hyperactivity. It is frequent (b/w 30% to 70%) and has multiple causes: pain, medical reason, delirium, medication, etc. It can be a source of complication, for the patient, and equipment pullout. International recommendations state that the agitation should be taken care of with standardized protocols to improve patient care.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, to assess the efficacy and safety of AXS-05 in the treatment of agitation in patients with Alzheimer's disease.
The goal of this research investigation is to conduct a prospective observational study of the comparative efficacy of haloperidol versus olanzapine versus midazolam versus ziprasidone for the treatment of acute undifferentiated agitation in the emergency department.
This study designed to evaluate the correlation between the effect of intraoperative magnesium sulfate infusion and the incidence of emergence agitation after pediatric ophthalmic surgery
