NCT ID: NCT05975190 Recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Respiratory Training and Relaxation Techniques to Improve Adjuvant Radiation Therapy in DIBH in Breast Cancer

B-REST
Start date: June 22, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this prospective clinical trial is to improve patient compliance and performance of deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) to further reduce the cardiac dose from left breast radiation, and to improve cooperation and patient satisfaction through an active and formal pre-treatment respiratory training program combined with relaxation training (R&R) in breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant radiotherapy for left sided breast cancer. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Does the use of communication training and the use of relaxation techniques (R&R) reduce the Maximum dose to the heart (Dmax) and improve further heart dose parameters in deep inspiration during adjuvant radiotherapy for breast cancer? - Does R&R improve longitudinal anxiety and quality of life under patients undergoing DIBH adjuvant radiotherapy for left sided breast cancer? Participants will be randomly assigned to either an experimental arm, which will receive the R&R, versus a standard arm that will not receive the R&R. - training program in the experimental arm includes breath hold training, music, and nature sounds that patients can listen to on an MP3 player - both groups complete standardized questionnaires about their well-being and satisfaction at prospective time points before, during the radiation treatment course, as well as at 6 weeks follow-up Researchers will compare the R&R group (interventional arm) to current conventional DIBH instruction (standard group) to see if Dmax to the heart decreases and compliance and satisfaction under patients rises.

NCT ID: NCT05546307 Recruiting - Relaxation Clinical Trials

Interest of Prior Relaxation on the Recordings of the SomatoSensory Evoked Potentials

RELAXPE
Start date: September 15, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Many factors influence the quality and duration of SomatoSensory Evoked potentials (SSEP). Some are related to the technique : type of electrodes, intensity of stimulation, stimulation site ; others are related to the patient : poor state of relaxation of the patient generating muscle artefacts; hypersensitivity of the patient to electrical stimuli making the examination unpleasant; examination time considered too long. However, the patient's relaxed state is essential to the quality of the signal . Thus the duration of an examination is very variable : between 30 and 75 minutes for the upper limbs.... For several months, the investigators provide relaxation to some patients just before the examination. Results seem to be positive. The investigators aim to study the effect of relaxation session on the quality of the SSEP recordings. Fifteen-minutes relaxation session will be provided by a nurse trained to the relaxation. The investigators will compare two groups : one group with one relaxation session before the examination and one group without relaxation session before the examination. The investigators chose to study the influence of relaxation session on (i) the artifacts rejection rate by the machine for the recordings of SSEP by stimulation of the median nerve to the upper limbs (ii) the duration of the examination (iii) the patient experience

NCT ID: NCT05475600 Recruiting - Anxiety Clinical Trials

APA and Relaxation by Biofeedback in Patients With Haematological Malignancy Admitted in ICU

APAER_H
Start date: December 2, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Adapted Physical Activity (APA) is accepted as an effective, recommended and beneficial supportive care for the health of people with cancer during the different phases of the disease. The objective of the project is to analyse the effect of APA programs (Classic, Exergaming and Relaxation) on the state anxiety of people with severe blood diseases admitted to Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Anxiety is a major affect in this context. The interest of the practice of APA for this public is to reduce the level of state anxiety and to limit the decline of functional capacities. The main objective of this work is to identify whether specific and/or complementary effects result from the use of biofeedback and/or Exergaming.

NCT ID: NCT05454826 Recruiting - Migraine Clinical Trials

Investigation of the Effect of Cold Application in Migraine

Start date: July 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Migraine is a headache that is paroxysmal and can last for hours, sometimes even days due to untreated or ineffective treatment is usually unilateral, throbbing, severe enough to prevent the person's daily life activities, and increases with head movements. It is a chronic disorder characterized by recurrent moderate and severe headaches, mostly associated with a few symptoms in the autonomic nervous system. Migraine consists of recurrent headache attacks accompanied by neurological, gastrointestinal, and autonomic symptoms. Migraine is the most common chronic headache in epidemiological studies. Studies have shown that migraine affects 12% of the general population. The aim of migraine treatment is to reduce the frequency, duration, and severity of migraine attacks, to reduce the losses caused by migraine, and increase the quality of life. In the treatment of migraine, non-pharmacological treatment is as important as pharmacological treatment. Some individuals prefer drug-free treatment methods because of the side effects drugs. In recent years, as the mechanisms of headaches have been better understood, significant developments have been made in treatment methods. Different physiotherapy and rehabilitation methods have been used for treatment. There are studies in which cold application is used in migraine patients, but a study evaluating the effectiveness of cold application has not been found in the literature. The systemic effects of cold have two main purposes: to maintain the current body temperature and to produce energy to raise the fallen body temperature. Knowing both the local and systemic effects of cold guides its use in treatment. The aim of this study was to diagnose migraine. To investigate the effectiveness of cold application applied in addition to relaxation exercises in individuals.
