NCT ID: NCT06212726 Not yet recruiting - Concussion, Mild Clinical Trials

RTL Concussion Communication

Start date: August 28, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is aimed at improving health outcomes for adolescents who sustain sport and recreation related concussions (SRRC) by enhancing Return to Learn (RTL). The study will conduct a quasi-experimental school-based 2 phase study involving 200 students with SRRC. The first phase will be descriptive to evaluate current standards (n=50). Phase 2 will compare students whod receive either standard of care RTL (n=75) or RTL augmented by a communication tool (RTC+; n=75).

SWELE Program: An Unstructured Outdoor Play With Mindfulness-based Interventions to Promote Mental Health Among Students With Special Education Needs

SEN
Start date: November 15, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This is an observational study with the aim of SWELE Programme is to raise mental health knowledge and awareness by implementing a play-based approach on Supporting Wellness in E-Child Learning Environments (SWELE) programme combining unstructured outdoor play activities with mindfulness-based interventions to promote mental health in children and adolescents with special education needs (SEN), in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a 16-week SWELE programme and it will be conducted in two batches. Each batch has three special schools. The main activities include: One training workshop for three groups in each special school: 1) Scout Leaders (special schools' teachers), 2) SEN students (scouts in the school) to become Youth Mental Health Ambassadors and 3) for parents, school social workers, school nurses, schoolteachers and stakeholders; 30 minutes unstructured outdoor play with mindfulness activities 2 times per week for 16 weeks After participated the SWELE programme, the primary outcomes include reducing anxiety symptoms, reducing negative emotions, improving social skills in peer relationships; and changing in playfulness level among SEN children and adolescents. Main activities of SWELE programme: - Unstructured outdoor free play integrated into the school's extra-curricular activities (Youth Mental Health Ambassadors) to promote SEN students' mental health for objectives 1-4. - Use mindfulness-based podcasts, mindfulness games, mindfulness art for objectives 1-2. - Through meditation and deep breathing technique, storytelling with relaxing waves piano music, yoga and mindful art for objectives 1-2. - Training Workshops (Training of trainers) for Scout Leaders who will implement SWELE program in each special school. - Youth Mental Health Ambassador Program for SEN students who are enrolled in Scout Club in each special school; SWELE training workshops for parents and schoolteachers will also be held in each special school for objectives 1-4. - Examples of unstructured play might be creative play alone or with others, including artistic or musical games. imaginative games - for example, making cubbyhouses with boxes or blankets, dressing up or playing make-believe, exploring new or favorite spaces like school backyards, parks, playgrounds and so on.

NCT ID: NCT05902143 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Specific Learning Disorder

Fine Motor Function in Children With Specific Learning Disorders

Start date: June 30, 2023
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Specific Learning Disorder (SLD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder in which a person shows difficulties in reading, written narration, and/or mathematics. 30 to 50 percent of children with SLD experience difficulties in fine motor skills, such as handwriting skills, and also during self-care activities and activities that require sorting. This study will evaluate children with SLD and healthy ages within fine motor skills, handgrip strength, and hand-forearm anthropometric measurements. Our study will show the impact of the fine motor skills of children with SLD on their quality of life and participation in daily life activities. In light of our current knowledge, no study has been found that comprehensively examines the fine motor functions of children with SLD. Therefore, normative data on the upper extremity functions of children with SLD will be presented to the literature. In this context, our work will shed light on the development of new treatments and assessment methods for clinicians and researchers working with children with SLD.

NCT ID: NCT05686473 Not yet recruiting - Behavior Problem Clinical Trials

Psychoeducation of Parents to Children With FASD

NorFASDPEdu
Start date: August 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

By longitudinal, prospective research in children and adolescents with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) and their parents to explore the beneficial effects of participating in a standardized intervention program in order to treat and reduce the consequences of early brain damage. By using elements from international programs based on psychoeducation and parent training, the investigators aim to help parents to better understand and respond to the neurodevelopmental disabilities of their children, and thereby improving behavioral problems and self-regulation deficits.

Teacher Help for Children and Youth With Mental Health Disorders

TeacherHelp
Start date: January 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Teachers are increasingly faced with classrooms of students whose needs require support far beyond what traditional teacher-training programs prepare educators to provide. The presence of students with greater challenges in classrooms is due in part to the move to a full inclusion model of education and also to the rising epidemic of mental health disorders in youth. Mental health problems affect up to one million Canadian youth and their families. However, few of these individuals (~20%) receive the support they need (Kirby, 2013; Kutcher & McLuckie, 2013). The Teacher Help research team along with industry partner, Velsoft, and key knowledge user, Nova Scotia Department of Education and Early Childhood Development, will address this barrier by developing, evaluating, and commercializing a sustainable eHealth resource for teachers. Teacher Help is an online program that assists teachers in providing evidence-based interventions to students in grades 1-12 with mental health disorders in the classroom. The program allows teachers in a typical classroom setting to access information and expert-coach and peer support when they need it, so they can intervene early in order to reduce the negative consequences of mental health disorders in youth. Currently three modules (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder [ADHD], Autism Spectrum Disorder [ASD], and Learning Disabilities [LD]) are at different stages in the innovation pipeline. The investigators will test whether teachers make good use of this program and whether it is effective in improving mental health outcomes among children and youth both at school and at home. The investigators will also study whether the program changes teacher's attitudes toward children and youth with these disorders. The investigators will provide information to the Department of Education on how to use this program. This approach will help ensure that the program will continue after the research study ends. To the Teacher Help team's knowledge Teacher Help is the first and only research-validated eHealth program directly targeting teachers to help them intervene with children and youth who have mental health disorders, thus allowing Canada to take a lead in eHealth as applied to a school context.
