Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to measure the effects of Group Cognitive Evolutionary Therapy on mental health, especially on depressive symptoms and anxiety. Participants will be allocated in one of two conditions: (1) Group Cognitive Evolutionary Therapy (intervention) or (2) Waitlist. The intervention will consist of two 8-hour sessions of Group Cognitive Therapy, in two consecutive days. The Group Cognitive Evolutionary Therapy group will be compared to the waitlist group to test the efficacy of the intervention.
The overall goal of this application is to assess feasibility and impact of a remotely delivered guided meditation practice called Yoga Nidra, for reducing or stopping use of Benzodiazepine Receptor Agonists (BZRAs) for insomnia and anxiety in a population of older adults recruited from within the Birmingham VA medical system.
The main cognitive complaint in brain-injured patients is often the everyday disorganization caused by Executive Function (EF) deficits. EF deficits are often seen in patients with psychiatric disorders i.e. depression or anxiety. In order to minimize everyday disorganization, effective EF interventions are required. Interventions using compensatory strategies have the potential to enable patients to minimize disabilities, minimize participation problems and to function more independently in daily life. A well-known evidence-based intervention that uses compensatory strategies is Goal Management Training (GMT), a training that has been found to alleviate depressive symptoms in a depressed population. GMT entails learning and applying an algorithm, in which a daily task is subdivided into multiple steps to handle executive difficulties of planning, and problem solving. To adopt the GMT strategy and ensure maximal profitability for patients, they have to learn to use the algorithm in different situations and tasks. Therefore, GMT is comprehensive, time-consuming and thus labour-intensive. Along with this, brain games become increasingly attractive as an (add-on) intervention, most notably in an effort to develop home-based personalized care. Until now, however, the rationale behind brain games is based on what can be considered the restorative approach (i.e. strengthening of executive problems) rather than practicing compensatory strategies, with little or no transfer to improvements in daily life functioning. This study therefore aims to assess the potential of a newly developed Brain Game, based on compensatory strategies, as an add-on to GMT to develop a shortened and partly self-paced GMT intervention. The primary objective of this study is to assess whether the use of a compensatory brain game supported GMT treatment could be of interest in people with EF deficits after ABI that also suffer from depression or anxiety, to improve goal achievement, their executive function performance during goal-related tasks, and their executive performance during an ecological valid shopping task. Also we assess whether psychological symptoms alleviate following the GMT intervention and at 6-weeks follow-up. The study will be a multiple-baseline across individuals single-case experimental design (SCED). The study population consists of brain-injured patients, between 18 and 75 years old that receive in-patient mental neuropsychiatric healthcare. Participants eligible for the study must have EF deficits due to (nonprogressive) Acquired Brain Injury (ABI), minumum time post-onset of 3 months and depressive or anxiety symptoms. EF deficits will be assessed by extensive neuropsychological examination. Participants will be recruited from an inpatient clinic. In the course of one and a half year four participants will be recruited.
INTRODUCTION: Currently, there is no scientific evidence about pain in the anesthetic blockage of the first finger according to the application method. However, clinical evidence has valued the use of carpule, due to the low pain it generates in the patient to the application of anesthetic. Most studies on anesthesia and pain, especially with the use of carpule and distracting methods, belong to the field of dentistry. OBJECTIVES: It is intended to determine the pain after an anesthetic block in H of Frost in the first finger with different application methods, such as syringe and carpule. As secondary objectives, it is intended to establish the difference in pain according to the sex and age of the patients. METHODOLOGY: Experimental, transverse and random clinical trial type analytical study, in which a sample of 200 individuals will be selected, 100 per group, which would require digital anesthesia of the first finger and that would fulfill the inclusion criteria. Result: after the completion of the study CONCLUSIONS: After the completion of the study
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of a mindfulness-based intervention using a virtual reality cave system for promoting mental wellbeing in youths. The mindfulness-based intervention will last for three months, with 6-8 weekly sessions lasting 1.5 hours each. Participants will attend the sessions in a group format, and the sessions will be administered by registered social worker who are specialized in counselling. The intervention content is designed by a registered clinical psychologist accredited for delivering mindfulness-based intervention and nurses who are experienced in mindfulness training. A single-group pre-post uncontrolled design will be employed. Evaluations will be conducted at baseline (0 weeks) and post-intervention (3 months).
This clinical trial aims to explore the effectiveness of the Mediterranean DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet and Forest Bathing (FB) in reducing psychological stress among older Chinese individuals. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. what is the effect of FB on stress reduction 2. what is the effect of MIND on stress reduction Participants of the MIND-FB group will participate will receive 1. FB: a two-hour FB session on four consecutive weekends in a country park, 2. MIND: four nutrition sessions, and adhere to the MIND diet for 12 weeks Researchers will compare the FB and routine care groups to compare the effectiveness of MIND and FB in reducing psychological stress.
This study aims to evaluate the effects of animated films and story books on the fear and anxiety levels of children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes.
The aim of the current study is to analyze the effect of listening to Quran or music or natural sounds on anxiety and stress level among patients undergoing MRI.
This study will conduct as a randomized pretest-posttest study to examine the effect of virtual reality glasses (VRG) application during the IUI procedure on anxiety and patient satisfaction. The population of the research will consist of women who were treated with assisted reproductive techniques and underwent IUI at the infertility polyclinic of Ministry of Health Adana City Training and Research Hospital between May and December 2024 and who meet the research criteria. The research sample was calculated as a total of 90 people (at least 45 people in each group) using the power program. Data; Personal Information Form, Visual Assessment Scale (VAS), State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Patient's Perception of Nursing Care Scale will be collected from women who agree to participate in the research. Virtual reality glasses will be applied to the intervention group.
The focus of this study is the impact of usage of a mobile application to support problem-solving therapy on symptoms of anxiety, depression and substance use.
