NCT ID: NCT02235649 Completed - Focus of Study Clinical Trials

Exploring the Feasibility of Social Skills Training in People With Psychosis

Start date: March 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Reduced social and community functioning is a predominant and enduring feature in people experiencing severe mental illness such as psychosis. The large majority of interventions (mostly pharmacological) target the so called positive symptoms (e.g. hallucinations and delusions) but poorly address functional and social consequences of the illness. This study attempts to fill this gap by assessing the feasibility and acceptability of a psychological intervention targeting social cognition deficit in people with psychosis. The intervention is a group psychological treatment facilitated by a clinical psychologist targeting competencies such as emotion recognition, social situation appraisal and guessing people's intentions and mental states. The group therapy takes advantage of audiovisual material to illustrate strategies and thinking styles that may help participants to overcome difficulties in social settings. A second objective of this study is to test a new method to measure social cognition. Recent research showed that interview and performance based tests are poorly associated with every day activity of people with schizophrenia. This study is planning to evaluate the feasibility of new assessment methods for social cognition in everyday life using portable electronic devices (Experience Sampling Method and an activity watch). These devices will be carried by participants in their everyday life and will ask about feelings and levels of social activities at random times and record basic physiological and activity levels.

NCT ID: NCT02203318 Completed - Focus of Study Clinical Trials

Can the Hypertrophy of Contralateral Testis Predict the Absence of the Non-palpable Testis in the Boys Aged From 6months to 18months of Age ?

Start date: July 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

The aim of this study is to verify whether the hypertrophy of contralateral testis may predict the absence of the non-palpable testis in the boys younger than 24months of age. According to the previous studies of other countries, the large size of the contralateral testis of the nonpalpable testis has positive correlation woth the weak viability of the affected testis. We are going to evaluate this hypothesis with prospective study. 3 groups are going to be enrolled into this study ; non-palpable testis group(Group1), palpable but not normally descended testis group(group2) and control group(group3). The size of testis will be measured with Ultrasound and the length, width and the height will be measured before surgery at outpatient department. For the group 1 & 2, the viability of the affected testis will be evaluated and compared after surgery. In addition the comparison with normal control group is also going th be conducted.

NCT ID: NCT02191345 Completed - Stress Clinical Trials

The Effectiveness of Guided Imagery for a Nonprofit's Employees

Start date: July 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Primary Aim A. To determine if listening to prerecorded guided imagery 3 times per week for 4 weeks will reduce state anxiety, perceived stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma in Fronltine Service staff. Primary Aim B. To determine if staff will continue to listen to guided imagery after the first 4 weeks of the study is over.

NCT ID: NCT01992757 Completed - Focus of Study Clinical Trials

Thromboelastography-derived Functional Fibrinogen Levels

TEG-FF
Start date: November 2013
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study hopes to determine if thromboelastography-derived functional fibrinogen (TEG-FF or FLEV) levels obtained during the rewarming phase of cardiopulmonary bypass can provide information on coagulation status sooner, allowing for anticipation of post-bypass bleeding and transfusion requirements

NCT ID: NCT01971021 Completed - Focus of Study Clinical Trials

Vascular Access in Cancer Patients - PICC vs PORT in a Randomized Controlled Trial.

Start date: April 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

As of today there is very limited scientific knowledge in whicj of the two vascular access devices (PICC-line or venous ports) that offers the lowest complicationrates in cancerpatients. The study group wants to clearify this unsolved matter by comparing the two systems. Our primary endpoint is the presens of catheter related venous thrombosis. We are also looking at all catheter related complications and patient satisfaction.

NCT ID: NCT01896258 Completed - Focus of Study Clinical Trials

A Nationwide Survey of Korean Emergency Department Triage Systems and Scales

Start date: September 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

As a first step towards reform of the emergency medical service system by standardizing triage scale to Korean Triage and Acuity Scale(KTAS), we aimed to assess the present status of our emergency department triage systems and illustrated the present status and problems of the Korean emergency department triage system.
