Filter by:This study will consist in a randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT) to test the efficacy of a blended group transversal protocol (BLGr-TP) compared to a face-to-face group transversal protocol (FFGr-TP). The main aims of the study are the following: - To analyze the differential efficacy of the BLGr-TP versus the FFGr-TP for the treatment of emotional disorders in aspects of clinical measures, as well as in terms of retention and dropout rate and adherence. - To analyze the differential acceptability of the BLGr-TP versus the FFGr-TP for the treatment of emotional disorders. In addition, it is intended to carry out a study of mediators and moderators of the efficacy of both interventions. The established hypotheses in relation to the main goals are: - Both treatment modalities (FFGr-TP and BLGr-TP) will achieve improvements in the symptoms of emotional disorders, reflected in the scores of the clinical measures. - The BLGr-TP will show equivalent efficacy to the FFGr-TP. - The BLGr-TP will show an acceptability comparable to the face-to-face protocol. Both modalities will be well valued by the participants. - In both treatment modalities, the changes achieved are expected to be maintained over time (3, 6 and 12 months).
Digital mental health interventions are a cost-effective and efficient approach to expanding the accessibility and impact of psychological treatments; however, little guidance exists for selecting the most effective program for a given individual. In the proposed study, decision rules will develop for selecting the digital program that is most likely to be the optimal intervention for each user. These treatment recommendations can be implemented in the context of large healthcare delivery systems to improve the delivery of digital mental health interventions at scale. The overarching aim of the current study is to better understand for whom and how leading digital interventions work in a large healthcare setting. The study builds on the existing literature and follows expert recommendations by using machine learning (ML) methods to develop precision treatment rules (PTRs) for three leading digital interventions for emotional disorders (e.g., anxiety, depression, and related mental health disorders). Specifically, ML methods will be used to develop PTRs to optimize clinical outcomes and associated intervention engagement. This study will leverage a unique partnership between Boston University (BU), SilverCloud Health (SC)--a leading provider of digital mental health care--and Kaiser Permanente (KP)--one of America's leading health care providers. A clinical trial (RCT) will be conducted to evaluate the relative effectiveness of three distinct empirically supported digital mental health interventions (from SC's existing library of programs) in a sample recruited from KP primary care and other clinical settings. Data from this trial will be used to develop theoretically and empirically informed, reliable selection algorithms for managing treatment delivery decisions. Algorithms will be validated in a separate "holdout" dataset by examining whether allocation to predicted optimal treatment is associated with superior outcomes compared to allocation to a non-optimal treatment. The role of user engagement will be determined, and other mechanisms in treatment outcome.
Adult Psychiatry Clinic Medical University of Gdańsk (MUG) is a healthcare facility that provides ketamine treatment to adult patients suffering from mental health conditions. The Clinic especially treats individuals suffering from treatment-resistant disorders, like - mood disorders, anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive and related disorders, trauma and stressor-related disorders, somatic symptom and related disorders, and dissociative disorders. Herein, this naturalistic observation aims to look at the safety and tolerability of ketamine treatment to further develop the understanding of ketamine in the use of psychiatry.
Mothers usually have the primary role in bringing up children and developing health-related behaviors. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of mothers' dental anxiety and oral hygiene on the dental anxiety and periodontal health of their children. The study included 280 randomly selected children, aged 4-12 years, who came to the dentist for the first time and their mothers. Demographic and oral hygiene information of the mothers was collected through a questionaire. Dental anxiety of the mothers and children was assessed using the Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) and the Venham Picture Test (VPT), respectively.
This study evaluates the efficacy of a multistrain probiotic administered in the form of a capsule in the management of moderate self-reported anxiety in adults aged 18-65
This study evaluates the efficacy of a multistrain postbiotic administered in the form of a capsule in the management of moderate self-reported anxiety in adults aged 18-65
The main objective of this project will be to verify if the insertion of diaphragmatic, cardiorespiratory and strength breathing exercises and cooperative sports activities in Physical Education classes, during a period of 12 weeks, may be able to modify the scores of symptoms of anxiety and depression in adolescent students. As secondary objectives, this project will seek to verify which of the interventions will provide the greatest reductions in students' anxiety and depression symptoms, as well as analyze their effects on other health indicators, also verifying if a greater volume of sessions can provide additional benefits to mental health. when compared to a smaller volume. This is an experimental study, of the randomized clinical trial (RCT) type. The target population will be adolescent students (14 to 19 years old) from the Federal Institute Sul-rio-grandense (IFSul) on the Bagé and Pelotas campuses. A total of 16 classes will compose the sample. The classes that have the Physical Education (PE) curriculum component in their schedule will be listed and randomized in relation to the comparator group (CG) and to the three different intervention protocols: diaphragmatic breathing exercises (intervention group 1 or GI-1), physical exercises cardiorespiratory and strength activities (intervention group 2 or GI-2) and cooperative sports activities (intervention group 3 or GI-3). The application of these interventions will occur during PE classes, twice a week at Campus Bagé and three times a week at Campus Pelotas. Interventions will last 15 minutes in groups GI-1 and GI-2, and 20 minutes in GI-3. Before the start of the intervention, baseline assessments will be carried out, consisting of primary outcomes (symptoms of anxiety and depression) and secondary outcomes (self-concept, quality of life, sleep indicators, self-perception of physical fitness, cognitive failures, strength and cardiorespiratory fitness). The groups will be compared regarding the characteristics collected at baseline and after the 12th week of intervention. The Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) and the post-hoc Bonferroni test will be used to compare the moments (pre and post-intervention) between the groups and to identify the group*moment interaction. Analyzes will be performed by protocol and by intention to treat. The significance coefficient adopted will be p<0.05.
This is a randomized effectiveness/implementation trial comparing a 24-week neurology-based collaborative care intervention to usual neurology care among 60 adults with epilepsy.
This study is a clinical trial that evaluates what drives patient engagement and tests the impact of two strategies-automated motivational push messaging and coach support-to improve engagement with an evidence-based mobile app intervention for depression and/or anxiety.
Despite current anxiety and pain management during oocyte retrieval in IVF/ICSI treatment by conscious sedation, oocyte retrieval often remains painful and stressful for patients. An average pain score of 6.0 (expressed using VAS) and stress score of 41.63 (using STAI-S) were reported by previous researches. Previous research showed there might be a negative correlation between anxiety experienced in IVF/ICSI treatment, and ongoing pregnancy rate. Other researches nuance this. In addition, conscious sedation can give a variety of side effects such as apnea and respiratory depression. The appliance of Virtual Reality is increasingly researched, in a variety of procedures. Previous researches showed that Virtual Reality was effective in the reduction of anxiety and pain experienced, also in the field of Gynaecology and Obstetrics. We hypothesized that Virtual Reality can aid in the reduction of anxiety and pain experienced during oocyte retrieval in IVF/ICSI treatment. We also aim to find a definitive answer on the question whether anxiety during IVF/ICSI treatment can negatively influence ongoing pregnancy rates.
