Using Yogic Breathing to Reduce Stress in Anesthesia Personnel as Measured by Hair Cortisol

Stress Clinical Trial

Official title:
Using Yogic Breathing to Reduce Stress in Anesthesia Personnel as Measured by Hair Cortisol

Clinical Trial Summary

Mind body exercises have long been used as a way for individuals to reduce stress and improve well-being. Recent studies indicate that yogic breathing (YB, also known as pranayama) could potentially impact both the mind and body by engaging both the physiological and neural elements and can thus be a specific tool that can be utilized by healthcare workers to combat burnout and decrease perceived levels of stress. Our aim is to understand and measure both subjectively and objectively the effects of long-term yogic breathing on stress levels in anesthesia personnel. This will be a single arm longitudinal trial designed to evaluate the feasibility and estimate the efficacy of implementing a yogic breathing program for stress reduction among anesthesiology practitioners at one academic medical center. The primary aim of the trial is to estimate the correlation between participant stress with average duration of yogic breathing over time. Secondarily the feasibility of implementing yogic breathing practices among anesthesiology practitioners will be evaluated. Feasibility measures will include recruitment rates, retention at 1year follow-up, and adherence to the yogic breathing program at 12 months.
