Filter by:Health students are the future actors of the health system. They are exposed to many stressors in their journey. The quality of life of medical students is alarming worldwide: 11.1% of undergraduate and postgraduate residents reportedly have suicidal ideation and 27.2% have depressive symptoms. In addition, 44.2% suffer from burn-out syndrome. In the third cycle, 28.8% suffer from depressive symptoms and 35.1% from burn-out syndrome. This finding is shared internationally among medical residents. Health professionals are facing a global problem which it is crucial to act. At national level, a survey on the mental health of young doctors carried out in 2017 found, among the 7603 residents who responded a prevalence: 22.8% of depressive symptoms, 59.7% of anxiety symptoms, 23.4% of suicidal thoughts, including 5.0% in the month prior to the survey. In 2018, a French report on the quality of life of health by Dr Donata Marra highlighted a real malaise affecting residents and the need to intervene "for residents, for carers and for patients", through the implementation of specific recommendations. The proposal 6 of the report emphasises the prevention of psychosocial risks through educational interventions such as training in collaborative management. On a personal level, the aim is to the leadership of each individual, in terms of stress management, communication, cross-disciplinary skills or even the introduction of relational simulations in the teaching of an awareness of deviant behaviour and harassment. The stress factors are indeed multiple during health studies confrontation with death, competition, increasing responsibilities… Perceived stress has a negative impact on the quality of life and burnout. Effective stress management strategies could therefore help to improve the quality of life of residents. In this context, the analysis of the literature highlights three main areas of intervention that could contribute to resident leadership in favour of their quality of life: stress management, healthy living and the construction of a professional identity. The Junior Leadership programme for residents from the beginning of their professional formation designed to provide basic knowledge and skills in healthcare leadership and to develop cross-disciplinary skills. The aim is to provide the necessary support for the success of the resident's professional project by participating in the improvement of their quality of life and the prevention of psycho-social risks. The study therefore propose to evaluate the feasibility of training in leadership and meditation on the satisfaction of resident.
The aim of the study will be to find out which manual therapy approach is most effective for the improvement of symptoms (sensory, cognitive, emotional and social) in people with Fibromyalgia.
The overall aim of this pilot study is to investigate the effect, "feasibility" and experiences of regular massage over 12 months on the mental and physical health of healthcare professionals, as well as the frequency of layoffs, sick leave and reported patient safety risk cases, as well as health economics
The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of rTMS applications at different current frequencies (low frequency / intermittent (intermittent) theta burst (iTBS)) in stroke patients on lower extremity motor development, physical function and quality of life, and to compare the effectiveness of these modalities.
This proof-of-concept study was to explore the implementation feasibility to deliver the Lymfit intervention to participants remotely during the pandemic.
The aim of this 2- arm randomized-control study is to determine the effect of an oral hygiene self care intervention on the oral health status and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of HIV-positive children (age: 8-16 years, n=172) presenting to five pediatric HIV clinics in Kano, Nigeria. The intervention will comprise oral health education and instructions on oral self-care. Data on oral health status and OHRQoL will be obtained at baseline and at 1, 3 and 6 months. Study findings will help inform policies to improve the oral health and OHRQoL of HIV-positive Nigerian children and guide the integration of oral health care services into HIV programs.
Personalized Integrated Care Promoting Quality of Life for Elderly People (ProCare4Life, PC4L) project was created to finalize a digital platform with integrated sensors , for monitoring the health status of the elderly subjects with neurodegenerative diseases and comorbidities. In fact, an integrated care platform - able to establish correlations between comorbidities, investigate the intake of different drugs, mitigate potential health risks, study the social variables and promote unified therapeutic procedures or social services - could help patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals and social health workers to monitor various diseases parameters. The main contribution of the PC4L project is to propose an integrated, scalable and interactive care system that can be easily adapted to the reality of various chronic diseases, care institutions and end-user needs, for the benefit of all the actors involved. The main expected results are to improve patients' quality of life, enable an active life and better disease management, support professionals in decision making, facilitate efficient communication between all stakeholders and ensure reliable and secure access to data at the within Europe.
Comparison of quality of life before and after 14 days of use of Endo App® in endometriosis patients compared to non-users
In a study published in 2018 the research team had collected the Medical Research Council score (MRCs) at Intensive Care Unit (ICU) discharge. The investigators would like to be able to examine, if the preliminary results obtained by in 2020 by Van Aerde's team are confirmed in their cohort. The investigators hypothesize that patients with an MRCs less than or equal to 55 at discharge from the ICU, have a higher mortality rate than those with a score greater than 55. The investigators would also like to examine whether or not an MRCs score ≤ 55 is associated with a difference in quality of life and autonomy, after 5 and more years post ICU.
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a biopsychosocial-spiritual (BPS-S) Group intervention on quality of life among seniors with disabilities in long-term care residential settings.
