This is a single site, randomized, double-blind placebo controlled parallel arm study assessing the effects of 6 months lutein supplementation on cognitive and visual outcomes in healthy children exposed to excessive digital screen time.
This study assesses spinal imbalance and motion in patients with sLSS and elicits fatigue via back exercises and compares spinal imbalance and motion before and after the fatigue exercise and compares these to healthy controls, allowing to associate sLSS-specific motion patterns to paraspinal muscle fatigue.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chinese herbal compound in improving fatigue symptoms and quality of life in patients with chemotherapy.
The Norwegian Sickness Absence Clinic (NSAC) Nudge Study is a naturalistic randomized controlled multicentre trial which aim is to measure the efficacy of nudging clinicians' attention towards patients' motivation for work, barriers for return to work and work environment challenges, on functional recovery as primary outcome, and health outcomes as secondary outcome. Patients will be recruited in five different NSACs across northern Norway. In total 1100 patients will be randomized to two equal probability treatment arms: 1) NSAC with the nudge, and 2) NSAC without the nudge. The nudge is tailored to the individual patient's needs using survey, and the clinicians are presented with a summary of this patient survey prior to consultations highlighting health problems and challenges as reported by the patient in the survey.
Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) affects about 50,000 people in Spain, so it is essential to implement health interventions that meet their needs and demands. Expert patient programs facilitate health-related empowerment through peer learning. From a study of focus groups that identified the characteristics and contents of an expert patient program for MS and the ongoing pilot tests, the need for implementation in the different reference units of Catalonia is established. Hypothesis: The territorial implementation in Catalonia of a Catalonia® Expert Patient Program for people with MS (PPEC-EM) based on peer learning will improve the quality of life, knowledge and self-management related to the health process of the participants. Objective: To deploy and evaluate the territorial implementation of a PPEC-EM based on peer learning regarding the quality of life, knowledge and self-management related to the health process of the participants. Methodology: Pre-post intervention multicenter clinical study. This study will begin after the approval of the respective Ethics Committees. The deployment will consist of 12 groups of patients (2 per unit): 6 groups with people with recurrent MS and 6 groups with people with progressive MS. A patient with MS previously trained by a team of health professionals will lead 9 educational group sessions (1 weekly session for 9 weeks) with 12 people with the same disease in order to improve the impact and self-management according to the health process. The main variable is the improvement of the quality of life and the secondary ones are the emotional impact, activation of the person, knowledge on the MS, fatigue, habits and lifestyles, use of the sanitary services and program-related experience of participants. All variables will be measured before and after the intervention and after 6 and 12 months. A pre-post comparability analysis will be developed in relation to the variables studied.
This research aims to determine the effect of acupressure applied to nurses actively working in internal clinics on sleep quality and fatigue during the COVID-19 pandemic process. This research hypothesizes that acupressure improves sleep quality and reduces fatigue.
Health professionals are extremely exposed to psychosocial risks, as they experience, in general, high levels of stress, anxiety, fatigue and suffering, due to the nature and location of their work. As a result, the health and well being of these professionals can be significantly compromised. In outbreaks of serious infectious diseases and pandemics, these risks become amplified and the health team is at greater risk of falling ill, presenting changes in mental health and psychological trauma, while caring for infected patients and becoming potential contaminants in their family and community. The objective is to study the mental health of professionals who work in Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICUs) in Brazil, during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The primary outcome will be the prevalence of burnout in the team involved with the care of critically ill children. Secondary outcomes such as anxiety, depression, quality of professional life, compassionate fatigue and post-traumatic stress disorder will be measured. Possible associations between demographic, work and coping variables (social support and resilience) with mental and emotional health outcomes will be investigated, in an exploratory character. It is a multicenter, observational, longitudinal study, with a descriptive and exploratory analytical component. Data collection will be carried out through an electronic survey during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
The study aims to investigate, through serial measurements of some biomarkers, the potential mechanisms through which yoga impacts on QOL and fatigue.
While walking, fatigue, sensorimotor function and motor control can affect in many ways. This research focuses on the relationship between foot core muscles with balance and gait parameters. The main purpose of the project is to investigate the effect of the endurance and fatigue responses of the extrinsic and intrinsic foot core muscles and the isolated fatigue response of the tibialis posterior muscle on balance and gait parameters.
