It will also be examining the acceptability, feasibility, and initial psychometric properties of three cognitive bias measures adapted or newly developed for youth injection fear.
The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of a modified version of the behaviour management technique Latent inhibition in combination with Er:YAG laser for achieving reduction of dental anxiety in paediatric dental patients. The main objectives are to compare dental anxiety felt during the laser and conventional dental treatment. The outcomes will be dental anxiety assessment by a self-reported anxiety during treatment in both group as well as measurement of heart rate dynamics during the procedures.

The feasibility study aims to evaluate the implementation and participant experience of the digital intervention and register psychological outcome measures preliminary evidence for its acceptability, feasibility, and potential beneficial effects.
Background: Since the first day of the epidemic, people diagnosed with COVID-19 and their relatives, some countries and groups such as healthcare professionals are exposed to discriminatory behavior and stigmatization in the world. Nurses fighting in the front lines from the very beginning of the epidemic and interacting with the patient the most experience anxiety and are exposed to stigma. Aim: With this study, it was aimed to determine the stigma, anxiety and wise awareness levels of nurses in our country according to their COVID-19 experience and to determine their effect on their professional lives. Methods: The universe of this case-control study, which will determine the level of stigma, anxiety and wise awareness of those who work as nurses in the clinic according to their COVID-19 passing status, is the universe of T.C. Nurses working at Ministry of Health Health Sciences University Bursa Yüksek İhtisas Training and Research Hospital Internal and Surgical Clinics (N: 756). The sample calculation of the research was calculated using the sampling method with known universe. The minimum number of people in the sample was calculated as (n) 354 when 1% error and 99% confidence interval were taken with the Raosoft sampling method. It was planned to reach the total number of nurses selected from internal and surgical clinics by using simple random sampling method and to collect data from these clinics between 15.05.2021 - 15.06.2021. In this study, socio-demographic information and questions about COVID-19, the Effect of COVID-19 Pandemic on Professional Life, "Coronavirus Anxiety Scale" and Toronto Wisdom Awareness Scale will be used in this study.
Background : Depression and Anxiety are linked to COVID (Coronavirus Disease)-19 long-term impact through several mechanisms. The possible way is the alteration of neurotransmitter regulation from the interaction of severe acute respiratory syndrome -Coronavirus-2 (SARS-COV2) with Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, and Dopa Decarboxylase (DDC), an enzyme that associated with the production of dopamine, serotonin, and other neurotransmitters. However, some arguments exist that depression and anxiety occur naturally due to external stressors, as the impact of public health measures, and not associated with physiological changes due to viral infection. Objective: 1. This study aims to identify whether the patient discharged after COVID 19 treatment has significant changes in serotonin and dopamine level which might induce depression and anxiety internally and, 2. To distinguish external etiologies that might induce depression and anxiety such as social isolation and stress due to public health restriction. Method: A prospective longitudinal study of people with the interest exposure is COVID 19 and the primary outcome is Depression, Anxiety, and Neurotransmitter level Hypothesis: People with a previous infection of COVID 19 have a significant difference in neurotransmitter level over time and compared to non exposed group and a higher prevalence of anxiety and depression.
To examine the efficacy of a fully self-guided app-based virtual reality cognitive behavior therapy (VR CBT) using low-cost (cardboard) virtual reality goggles compared with a wait-list control group and to determine its user friendliness. We hypothesize that children with GAD enrolled in the self-guided app will present lower scores of anxiety.
The investigators are looking to conduct a study looking at the effects of cannabidiol (CBD) from Hemp Oil in patients with Chronic pain, anxiety and insomnia. It is believed that CBD will improve pain anxiety and sleep quality and reduce opioid use. The study will last a total of 4 weeks and involve onsite visits in addition to weekly pain assessments.
This is a single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to see if acupuncture can safely and effectively manage anxiety in Parkinson's Disease. Eligible subjects will receive either real or sham acupuncture THREE times weekly for a total of SIX weeks.
The study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of virtual reality glasses used during a colonoscopy on vital signs, pain, and anxiety level. After the approval of the ethics committee and institutional permission, 60 patients who applied to the endoscopy unit for colonoscopy procedure between 1 October 2020 and 1 October 2021 and met the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. Within the scope of the planned study, the sample size in the light of the reported academic studies was determined as effect size d = 0,665 (effect size), α = 0.05 (margin of error), 1-β = 0.80 (Power) and by using the G-Power package program with the specified criteria. It was decided to recruit 58 people (29 people per group). The block randomization method will be used to determine the experimental and control groups. In order for the groups to be distributed homogeneously, the order produced by a computer program (https://www.randomizer.org/) will be used. Randomization will be done by a biostatistician outside the researcher. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will be assigned to the experimental and control groups according to the randomization list. Before the colonoscopy, the patient will be visited and information will be given about the purpose, content, and intervention to be applied. After obtaining verbal and written consent from the patients who accepted to participate in the study, the "Individual Characteristics Form" will be filled. Then, before the colonoscopy procedure, the anxiety states of the patients in the experimental and control groups will be asked with the "State and Trait Anxiety Inventory", their pain status with the Analog Scale (VAS), and their first life findings will be measured and the first measurement values will be recorded in the "Vital Signs Follow-up Form". The patients in the experimental group will be informed about the virtual glasses before the colonoscopy procedure and the virtual reality glasses will be placed on the patient's head during the procedure. Then, during the colonoscopy procedure, the duration of the colonoscopy will vary between 3-10 minutes, and during the colonoscopy period, videos with music background, parks, nature and seaside walks, underwater, etc., will be watched by the patient and the "Vital Signs Tracking Form" The second measurement values will be saved by making measurement to. Immediately after the colonoscopy procedure is finished, "Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)", "Life Findings Follow-up Form" (measurement will be made and 3rd measurement values will be recorded. The "State Anxiety Inventory" will be read and the answers will be recorded. The standard application will be applied to the patients in the control group during the colonoscopy procedure and the second measurement values will be recorded by measuring the "Vital Signs Follow-up Form".Immediately after the colonoscopy procedure is completed, the third measurement value will be recorded by measuring the "Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)" and "Vital Signs Follow-up Form". "State Anxiety Inventory" will be read and the answers recorded.
Persistent-post-concussion symptoms (PPCS) is a condition that effects on average one in seven persons following a concussion. Anxiety and depression symptoms are experienced by over one-third of those with PPCS. These symptoms can delay recovery from a concussion. Two techniques used to treat anxiety and depression symptoms are breath control and mindfulness exercises. This 8-week feasibility study will evaluate the implementation and compliance of a remote delivered breathing and mindfulness treatment program for individuals experiencing PPCS anxiety or depression symptoms.
