Filter by:Prior to this pilot study, it is unclear whether comparing a manualized version of the Family Partner Model to standard practice in the Child Welfare Services would be feasible. Results will inform whether and how to design a fully powered randomized controlled trial to test the effects of a manualized version of the Family Partner Model on child maltreatment. The specific results of the pilot study will inform 1) randomization procedures, 2) data sources to be used, 3) sample size calculations, and 4) adaptations to the design and measures for a fully powered randomized controlled trial.
The habit of family meals makes the infection rate of Helicobacter pylori high in China, which is also the main cause of reinfection of Helicobacter pylori. Eating together can easily cause family members to be infected with Helicobacter pylori. We used a real-world study to understand the risk factors, epidemiological characteristics, and safety and effectiveness of eradication therapy for helicobacter pylori infection in family-based screening and treatment.
Children with acquired brain injury (ABI) often struggle with complex impairments, including cognitive (such as memory and attention), social, emotional and behavioral challenges. There is a lack of evidence-based knowledge about rehabilitation for children with ABI in the chronic phase. The current study, the CICI Study, is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) directed towards children with ABI and their families in the chronic phase. The study will be conducted in close collaboration with schools and local health care providers. The CICI Study focuses on the child's and parents' individually identified target outcome areas and rehabilitation goals. The intervention aims to enhance everyday functioning in the home and school environment by attaining rehabilitation goals in areas noted as challenging by the participants. The efficacy of the CICI-intervention will be measured in terms of goal attainment, burden of brain injury related symptoms, parenting self-efficacy, unmet health care needs, as well as several aspects of child, parent and family functioning.
mCIMT and BIT are therapies applied in children with hemiplegia which have a great evidence, but not in a early age. This research has the objective to know the effects of this therapies in infants diagnosed of infantile hemiplegia from 9 to 18 months applying 50 hours of dose for both interventions during 10 weeks, executing them at home by familes.
Advances in information communication technologies (ICT) allow for ICT-assisted health promotion to become more common. Integrating ICT in health promotion has been suggested to offer many advantages compared to traditional approaches to promote family well-being. Research has also shown the positive effects of game-based approaches in enhancing health promotion interventions, especially with children. We will develop and assess a digital family game with theme-based mini-games to enhance family communication and well-being.
During the first part of the SRAS-COV2 pandemic, families were not allowed to visit the patients in ICU. We know that families can develop "Family-PICS" after their relatives' ICU stay. The aim of the study is to study the psychosocial outcomes of families of patients who were admitted in ICU for COVID-19 during the pandemic. The second objective was to search for any differences in outcomes whether families benefited from video-conferences with the medical team and their relatives or not during the ICU stay.
The project "More Appreciation and Less Criticism Project" (MALC) is a collaboration between the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals (TWGHs) and the School of Public Health of The University of Hong Kong (HKUSPH), funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. The objectives are to develop and test theory-driven group programmes to increase parents' intention and actual behaviours to express more appreciation or less criticism when interacting with their children, thereby enhancing family harmony and happiness.
Diagnostic pathways for children with possible autism. Which work best, for whom, when, and at what cost? Autism is a complex neuro-behaviour condition. People with autism have difficulty with social interaction and in communication with others. They may struggle with change, and repeat actions over and over. Life may be very anxious or stressful. The signs of autism can occur at any age but often appear in the first two years of life. There is no one type of autism, but many, so the condition is now called autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Autism is lifelong but this study is only about children. Caring for a child with autism can be difficult and can sometimes be tough on the whole family. This project aims to guide the people who plan services for families and children. Different teams and services that do autism assessments will help us. The investigators will ask teams and services: What speeds up diagnosis? What delays diagnosis? The study will be in four work packages: 1. The investigators will review research in the UK and abroad to find evidence and ideas that will help speed up diagnosis. 2. The investigators will survey professionals who work for the specialist teams who diagnose autism. The survey will be about each step in the process and ask which professionals get involved. The investigators will ask about the number of children they see and the time it usually takes to reach a diagnosis. This will give us a picture of the national situation. 3. After the national survey, the investigators will select around six or eight teams. These teams will be using different and innovative approaches. The investigators will study those approaches. The investigators will talk to clinical staff, managers, referrers, parents and young people. Parents and young people will have gone through the diagnostic process. The investigators will ask parents and young people about their experiences and views. The investigators will review the steps in the diagnosis process for about 70 children in each service. The investigators will find out how long each assessment takes, how much clinical time it takes, and how much it costs. The investigators will compare findings across teams and services. 4. The investigators will have national meetings with autism experts and patient groups. The investigators will show them our findings. These groups will agree recommendations for practice. Clinical teams, service managers, commissioners, parents' groups, and NHS England will receive recommendations. The research team has specialist expertise in autism, health services, economics, and statistics. The team includes public and NHS England partners. This will ensure the investigators take account of the needs of families and the investigators send the findings to people who plan services.
This study aims to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its measures on lifestyle in Dutch children between 4 - 18 years.
The present study is a confirmatory efficacy trial of Family Focused Therapy for youth at clinical high risk for psychosis (FFT-CHR). This trial is sponsored by seven mature CHR clinical research programs from the North American Prodrome Longitudinal Study (NAPLS). The young clinical high risk sample (N = 220 youth ages 13-25) is to be followed at 6-month intervals for 18 months.
