Filter by:The current study will evaluate TF-CBT delivered via tele-health for youth presenting with trauma symptoms via a randomized controlled trial. Goals of the current study are to examine the effectiveness of Tele-TF-CBT delivered by community providers in Puerto Rico in improving youth trauma outcomes. Goals are also to support the feasibility, acceptability, and engagement outcomes of Tele-health delivery.
The goal of this study is to refine and test a strategy for engaging Veterans with symptoms of depression, anxiety, and/or PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) as volunteers to help English language learners (ELLs) improve their speaking skills via structured conversations using videoconferencing.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the feasibility of implementation aspects, treatment effects and change processes regarding a brief trauma-focused Internet-based CBT treatment, for patients who have been treated in trauma care at Karolinska University Hospital and who exhibit symptoms of psychological consequences of the traumatic event. Another aim is to explore factors (predictors, moderators and mediators) that influence the effect of the treatment, in order to better understand who responds to the treatment.
When children become very sick and need to stay in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), it can have a big impact on their recovery and their family's well-being. Sometimes kids and their families feel worried or sad even after they leave the hospital. This can have an impact on the quality of their life after hospital discharge. To help understand and improve these experiences, the investigators want to study the "PICU diaries." These are journals that families and hospital staff can write in during the child's time in the hospital. Parents, other visitors and healthcare professionals can share thoughts, experiences, and even drawings or photos related to the child's admission. The content is a narrative account of what happens during the child's hospital stay, for the family to take home at PICU discharge. The investigators believe that writing in these diaries might help children and their families feel better after leaving the hospital. It might help kids feel less worried or sad, and it might also help their parents or caregivers feel better too. The study will include children who have been in the PICU and their families. Some families will receive these special diaries to use during their time in the hospital, while others won't. We'll then see how everyone feels after they leave the hospital and compare the two groups to see if the diaries make a difference. The investigators hope that by understanding how these diaries can help, healthcare professionals can make hospital experiences better for everyone involved.
This is an open-label, single, ascending dose study evaluating the PK and safety of methylone in healthy subjects.
Blacks in America more frequently meet the criteria for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) than any other US race or ethnicity. Yet, blacks are among the groups least likely to use mental health services for trauma. Thus, a large number of traumatized blacks suffer silently and remain untreated. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is an empirically-based psychological intervention that uses acceptance and mindfulness strategies, with commitment and behavior change strategies, to increase psychological flexibility and decrease anxiety outcomes. While culturally tailored mental health interventions have been shown useful for racial and ethnic minorities, there have been few efforts to tailor ACT for blacks. This NIH R21 would compare an ACT model specifically culturally tailored for blacks (POOF) to the classic ACT model in a randomized trial, where clinicians will conduct 12-session telehealth synchronous virtual groups. Eighty black participants who self-identify as suffering from stress or anxiety will be confidentially recruited. Two specific aims are proposed: Aim 1) It is expected that POOF participants will report higher levels of acceptability of treatment than classic ACT participants and that POOF participants will have better adherence to treatment regimens than traditional ACT participants. Aim 2) Given that race-based stress may mediate anxiety symptoms in U.S. based blacks, it is expected that POOF will decrease race-based stress, thereby mattering the most for improving anxiety outcomes for blacks. The proposed R21 pilot study will be the first randomized controlled trial to evaluate an ACT intervention tailored explicitly for black racial trauma. This study will provide critical data needed to plan and design a future R01 controlled longitudinal effectiveness study. The long-term objective is to significantly reduce the prevalence of stress and anxiety-related symptoms due to traumatic events for Blacks by increasing treatment acceptability for this population. Since blacks have the highest rates of trauma prevalence and chronicity, yet they are still underrepresented in mental health treatment, this tailored intervention can have a significant public health impact.
A battery of physiological and behavioral data will be collected before and after application of eTMS. Participants will be veterans or first responders diagnosed with PTSD. Study will be a double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel group, randomized clinical trial.
The purpose of this study is to examine the use of a brief transdiagnostic treatment for anxiety disorders and (post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in South Africa. The intervention will be delivered by non-specialist providers (e.g., nurses) in primary care clinics. The brief intervention group will be compared to an enhanced standard care control group.
The world experiences a high rate of traumatic events. Even if PTSD is not diagnosed, traumatic events can significantly affect people's lives. Traditional face-to-face therapies often face challenges, such as financial constraints, expensive therapy sessions, time restrictions, fear of stigma, and difficulties in accessing clinical psychologists. These challenges motivated us to develop new methods. Particularly in Turkey, there is neither sufficient infrastructure nor existing applications dedicated to addressing trauma-related complications. The development of the 'TraumaRelief' app is a pioneering initiative aimed at bridging this gap, targeting the resolution of these prevalent issues by introducing an accessible, innovative solution. The newly developed "TraumaRelief" app aims to provide solutions to these issues. This app contains eight modules: online video talks, psychoeducation, coping with symptoms, mindfulness-based relaxation exercises, imagery exposure, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)-based daily exercises, therapist messaging, emergency contact access. The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of this newly developed application through a pilot randomized controlled trial.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of an artificial intelligence (AI) platform for case managers in a nonprofit health system specializing in mental health and substance use disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is the AI platform acceptable and feasible for case managers? 2. Does the AI platform improve providers' productivity and reported interventions? Participants will be approximately 30 case managers and their 250 adult clients receiving case management services. Researchers will compare the provider productivity and work satisfaction prior to the implementation of the AI platform to following its implementation.
