Filter by:Anxiety has been identified as a prevalent and significant co-morbid condition in patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) being treated with hemodialysis. In particular, anxious sensitivity to symptoms commonly experienced by dialysis patients may lead patients to prematurely terminate their dialysis sessions and may have consequences on their dialysis adequacy and overall quality of life. The proposed study will examine the relationships between anxiety, depression, quality of life, symptom burden and dialysis prescription adherence. The primary regression analyses will be used to predict the influence of anxiety and depression (independently and together) on measures of adherence behaviors.
Stress and anxiety during childbirth have negative consequence on both mother and fetus. Previous studies have learned the effect of several intervention to reduce anxiety during labor- such as music and foot reflexology. Nevertheless, data for informative video before labor for reducing stress and anxiety are sparse. The present study aimed to review and determine the effect of informative video on anxiety, pain and outcomes of the labor in primigravida women.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is treatment of choice for insomnia. Many patients in psychiatric care have sleep problems including insomnia, but are rarely given the choice to participate in CBT to improve their sleep. Patients with Anxiety disorders and Affective disorders display high levels of sleep difficulties. Sleep problems are often general, such as insomnia and sleep phase problems. In a previous pilot study, the investigators of the current study developed a CBT protocol that would target sleep problems in this population. The basis was CBT for insomnia (CBT-i), but also including techniques that would alleviate sleep phase problems, (e.g. the systematic use of light and darkness), and techniques to target more general sleep related problems (e.g. difficulties waking up in the morning), that are also common in psychiatric patients. This treatment was well tolerated and gave moderate effects on insomnia severity in the pilot study. In a naturalistic randomized controlled trial, the investigators now evaluate the effects of this psychological treatment on sleep and anxiety and affective symptoms in patients at the program for Anxiety and Affective disorders, Southwest Psychiatry, Stockholm County Council, Sweden.
Objective: The study was carried out in a randomized controlled manner to determine the effect of the watching cartoons on the fear and anxiety levels of children during treatment. Method: The population of the study consisted of children aged 5-10 years who were brought to a state hospital in a southeastern province for blood collection. A total of 92 children, 43 of whom were in the cartoon group and 49 of which were in the control group, were included in the study. Research findings; Data Form was obtained by using Child Anxiety Scale and Child Fear Scale. The children in the cartoon group were shown the cartoons they wanted during the treatment. Anxiety and fear levels before and during the blood collection were evaluated in the cartoon and control groups. The anxiety level of the children was evaluated according to their own expressions, and the level of fear was evaluated independently according to both the children's own statements and the observers' statements.
Introduction and Aim: With the increase in life expectancy in cancer, it gains importance in the care process and the problems experienced by caregivers. However, the problems experienced by individuals caring for cancer patients are often ignored. The most common problems faced by cancer caregivers are sadness, anxiety, sleep disorders, and fatigue. Although reflexology has positive effects on sleep and anxiety in different patient groups, there is no study on its effectiveness in cancer caregivers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of reflexology on sleep and anxiety of caregivers. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted as a double-blind placebo-controlled design. After the groups were determined with block randomization, the reflexology investigation was applied to the experimental group for three consecutive days, while for the placebo group, the hands was moved around the foot for the same periods but no deep stimulation was applied. On the fourth day, a sociodemographic diagnostic form, state anxiety scale and Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale were administered to the participants by a blinded researcher. Data were analyzed with SPSS 25.0 package program. Written permission was obtained from the relevant ethics committee, hospital and participants to conduct the study.
An observational web-based survey on therapist adherence to evidence-based cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) in the perspective of their patients with depression or anxiety disorders in psychiatric outpatient care in Stockholm, Sweden. Following completion of CBT, participants respond to questions including their age, gender, education, whether they have improved, whether they considered treatment helpful, and an instrument measuring therapist adherence to CBT procedures (e.g., setting agenda, follow up on home assignments) and CBT techniques (e.g., exposure, cognitive restructuring). The purpose of the study is to contribute to quality assurance of CBT in Stockholm Health Care Services.

The overall goal of this study is to explore the effectiveness of using acupuncture versus aromatherapy, in conjunction with standard of care anti-emetics, to decrease chemotherapy induced nausea, vomiting, and anxiety in breast cancer patients undergoing Adriamycin and Cytoxan. This study also aims to determine if aromatherapy and anti-emetics is more effective than acupuncture and anti-emetics in treating nausea, vomiting, and anxiety in patients receiving Adriamycin and Cytoxan and if acupuncture and anti-emetics is more effective than aromatherapy and anti-emetics in treating nausea, vomiting, and anxiety in patients receiving Adriamycin and Cytoxan.
