Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test the I-CARE program in children who are in a medical hospital awaiting inpatient mental health treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can the I-CARE program be used at the medical hospitals and do the patients and hospital staff like the program? - Does the I-CARE program lower patients' emotional distress, thoughts about suicide or suicide attempts? Patients will complete as many of the 7 I-CARE videos as possible during their stay at the medical hospital and fill out online surveys. There are workbook activities that go with each I-CARE video. A hospital staff member will help the patient do the videos and workbook activities.
The aim of GENESIS clinical study is to map the HLA genomic region in the Greek population and evaluate possible correlations with selected underlying diseases.
The study involves a short therapy intervention for people who are experiencing thoughts of suicide. The intervention will focus upon different memories from the person's life. These memories will vary in the emotions they evoke - some memories will be associated with neutral emotions, whereas others will bring up positive emotions. The intervention will have a particular focus upon memories of times when the participants have moved away from thinking about suicide, with the aim of reinforcing memories of what helped them to reconnect with life. The intervention will also introduce relaxation techniques, in addition to involving a safety planning component. The project aims to consider whether this intervention is acceptable and feasible for this population.
This is a randomized, controlled clinical trial to assess the effects of the ketogenic diet in combination with treatment as usual on brain energy metabolism and psychiatric symptoms in individuals with first episode bipolar disorder and schizoaffective disorder.
As a diagnostic test, this study aims to explore the effectiveness of systems based on wearable devices in identifying mood disorders in children and adolescents.
The project aims to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of a blended face-to-face and smartphone intervention for distressing thoughts and experiences in people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders. A secondary aim is to assess the outcomes of the intervention at baseline (T0) and post-intervention (T1) (single-arm feasibility design). The study design is primarily based on Bell et al.'s (2018, 2020) blended face-to-face and smartphone intervention for hallucinations. The participants receive four face-to-face therapy sessions, using a smartphone between sessions employing elements of Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) and Intervention (EMI).
This study aims to evaluate the THRIVE clinical pathway at HUP-Cedar, focusing on supporting Medicaid-insured individuals, including those with serious mental illness, following hospitalization. The study will assess clinician/administrator perspectives on the pathway's feasibility, appropriateness, and acceptability and analyze referral patterns and post-discharge outcomes. The objectives are: 1. To conduct a qualitative study evaluating the implementation of THRIVE, particularly its adaptation to include patients with serious mental illness. 2. To examine referral patterns, 30-day readmission rates, and ED utilization for THRIVE participants, comparing them with those receiving standard care. Participants will be referred to home care services during hospitalization and seen by a home care nurse within 48 hours post-discharge. A discharging physician or Advanced Practice Provider will oversee care for 30 days or until a primary care or specialist visit. The Care Coordination Team will hold weekly case conferences for 30 days post-discharge to address both health and mental health needs. The study will compare outcomes of Medicaid-insured patients, including those with serious mental illness, to those receiving usual care.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of nutritional counseling versus no treatment in patients with schizophenia or bipolar affective disorder. The main question it aims to answer are: • Can nutritional counseling have a preventive effect on the development of cardiovascular disease in patients with schizophenia or bipolar affective disorder? Participants will meet a nutritionist at baseline to asess nutritional status, biochemical and anthropometric measurements. Then, half of the study population will receive nutritional counseling. After six weeks, the same baseline measurements will be repeated to examine any potential differences between the two groups. After the intervention, the control group will be offered the same counseling as the intervention group received during the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the feasibility if a remotely administered smartphone app can increase the volume and intensity of physical activity in daily life in patients with isolated Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep behaviour disorder over a long period of time (24 months). Participants will be tasked to achieve an incremental increase of daily steps (volume) and amount of minutes exercised at a certain heart rate (intensity) with respect to their own baseline level. Motivation with regards to physical activity will entirely be communicated through the study specific Slow Speed smartphone app. Primary outcomes will be compliance expressed as longitudinal change in digital measures of physical activity (step count) measured using a Fitbit smartwatch. Exploratory outcomes entail retention rate, completeness of remote digital biomarker assessments, digital prodromal motor and non-motor features of PD, blood biomarkers and brain imaging markers. Using these biomarkers, we aim to develop a composite score (prodromal load score) to estimate the total prodromal load. An international exercise study with fellow researchers in the United States and United Kingdom are currently in preparation (Slow-SPEED). Our intention is to analyse overlapping outcomes combined where possible through a meta-analysis plan, to obtain insight on (determinants of) heterogeneity in compliance and possible efficacy across subgroups
US residents who have obesity and sign the informed consent form and are screened and enrolled for this study. Participants who are enrolled complete a survey upon enrollment and are randomized into one of two arms. This study is direct to participant and will not utilize clinical sites.
