Filter by:Adenomyosis is a disease where ectopic endometrial-like glands affect the muscular wall of the uterus. About 70% of women affected by adenomyosis suffer from dysmenorrhea and menorrhagia. A levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) is the first-choice treatment of adenomyosis, but is not always sufficiently effective in all women. Those women often end up removing the uterus (hysterectomy). Hysterectomy is clinically regarded to be an efficient and final treatment of adenomyosis, but pelvic pain may also prevail after removal of the uterus. This study aimes to investigate the short - and long-term impact of hysterectomy on quality of life (QOL) and sexual function in women with adenomyosis, and further to evaluate if there is any difference compared to women that are removing their uterus due to other benign gynecological conditions.
To compare the satisfaction with conserved breast, acute and chronic postoperative complications and tumor control between intraoperative radiotherapy(IORT) and traditional postoperative radiotherapy following breast-conserving surgery (BCS).
The study aims to investigate, through serial measurements of some biomarkers, the potential mechanisms through which yoga impacts on QOL and fatigue.
The world population is ageing rapidly as a result of low fertility and mortality rates and increasing life expectancies. Old age people (age 60 years and above) shared 962 million or 13% of the global population in 2017 and expected to be two billion by 2050. As individuals grow old, their dietary pattern changes and the risk of malnutrition estimated between 11.8% to 27% in the community elderly people. Ageing and nutrition are by far the number-one driver of the global burden of disease: every country is facing. Early assessment and management of malnutrition among old age people can minimize the negative consequences, extending to better health status and quality of life. Nutrition counselling is one of the first line of nutritional therapy. However, malnutrition in old age people remains under-detected, under-treated and under resourced, and is often overlooked in low-income countries like Ethiopia. Furthermore, nutritional interventions targeted to old age people are lacking in the country. Therefore, this study is intended to estimate the effects of nutrition counselling on old age people's nutritional status and quality of life in Bahir Dar City, Northwestern Ethiopia
A study to asses the feasibility of physicians using a wearable brain sensing wellness device during a time of increased work load, patient volume and stressors to assess the association between duration of active state and calm state as measured by the wearable brain sensing wellness device, and quality of life (QOL), subjective stress, sleep and resilience.
The overall objectives of the proposed research are to develop a brief telehealth counseling intervention to provide support for people living with HIV and experiencing suicidal ideation, and to support HIV care engagement. The investigators hypothesize that a brief telehealth counseling intervention will be safe (participants in the clinical trial will not have increased risk of suicidal behavior), acceptable (high patient retention and satisfaction, high fidelity), and will demonstrate preliminary efficacy (reduced suicidal ideation, improved care engagement, improved mental well-being).
This is a pilot study to assess the feasibility of a full study. The purpose is to assess the analgesic effectiveness of the serratus anterior plane (SAP) block following cardiac surgery. Patients will be randomized to receive either Ropivacaine 0.2% or placebo via bilateral SAP block catheters for 72 hours postoperatively.
The investigators conducted a prospective cohort study to assess the safety, quality of life and cosmetic sequelae of prepectoral breast reconstruction in women with breast cancer and high risk. The study's main objective is to assess the safety of prepectoral breast reconstruction in terms of postsurgical complications and the feasibility of reconstruction (loss of implants). The secondary objectives are to evaluate oncologic safety (local relapses, residual glandular tissue) and to identify factors related to quality of life and cosmetic sequelae. The evaluation of residual tissue will be conducted by magnetic resonance imaging 12 to 18 months after the surgery, and the quality-of-life assessment will be performed using the BreastQ questionnaire. An initial patient evaluation will be conducted 12-18 months after the surgery, and a second evaluation will be performed at 5 years. The estimated sample size is 81 patients.
This research study is looking at the role of a supportive care mobile app in improving symptoms, coping skills, and quality of life in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
Previous studies suggested that most patients with Cardiac Electronic Implantable devices have a perception of describing the lifestyle due to a limitation of daily activities and physical exercise, besides the consequences in the psychological aspects such as anxiety and depression. The MHOL-CEID is a randomized controlled trial that Verifies the effectiveness of the Mobile Health of lifestyle that focuses on aspects of physical functional, psychosocial, and quality of life of patients with Cardiac Electronic Implantable Device.
