Anxiety Clinical Trial - "Pain & Emotional Changes on Relationships

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Introduction: This prospective study aimed to assess the impact of olfaction on providing positive emotional responses and reducing dental anxiety and pain. Material: A randomized double-blinded controlled study was enrolled on female patients. The olfaction was stimulated via lavender essential oils. Patients were divided into lavender and control groups. Patients in lavender group inhaled 2 % lavender vapors. In control group, patients inhaled distal water vapors. The variables included pain, anxiety, and vital signs. Anxiety was measured through Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS) and Speilberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaires. Pain was evaluated through visual analog scales (VAS). Vital signs included the systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), and oxygen saturation (Spo2). All variables were assessed before the intervention, 20 minutes after inhalation of vapors, and at the end of dental settings. The last evaluation was on the day after visits. P-values < 0.05 were considered significant.

Clinical Trial Description

ABSTRACT: Background: The purpose of the study was to determine to what extent olfactory aromatherapy reduces the intensity of dental pain and the level of dental anxiety. It also attempted to corelate between olfactory aromatherapy, stages of dental visits, and various dental procedures. Methods: Female patients were enrolled in a randomized controlled study. Olfactory aromatherapy was performed using lavender oils. Patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: the lavender group, in which patients inhaled 2% lavender vapors, and the control group, in which patients inhaled water vapors. Pain score, anxiety score, and changes in vital signs were among the predictable variables. Anxiety and pain were assessed using the Modified Dental Anxiety Scale (MDAS), Speilberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and visual analog scales (VAS). The vital signs were systolic (SBP) and diastolic (DBP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), and oxygen saturation (Spo2). Variables were evaluated before inhalations, 20 minutes after inhalations, at the end of settings, and on the following day. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
