Filter by: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.
The study aims to assess the feasibility of an online intervention platform based on the Immediate Stabilization Procedure (ISP®). This intervention targets early trauma reactions, aiming to reduce the risk of future PTSD.
The hypothesis is that intranasal dexmedetomidine will provide significantly more effective analgesia and anxiolysis for subjects undergoing a simple laceration repair when compared to either intranasal fentanyl or intranasal midazolam. Additional hypotheses include that there will be 1) no significant increase in adverse effects between drugs and 2) significantly higher satisfaction rates for both subject experience and ease of laceration repair based on structured, proceduralist feedback.
The investigators propose to examine a mismatch-based method of reconsolidation blockade for the treatment of psychological trauma in military personnel and Federal police officers. The standard reconsolidation blockade treatment (aka Reconsolidation Therapy) involves reactivating the trauma memory while under the influence of propranolol. The mismatch method of Reconsolidation Therapy will involve varying the contexts in which the weekly trauma memory retrieval will occur. This study will involve 10 visits (eligibility assessment, treatments, and follow-up visits) over a 6-month period for each participant. Treatments will be conducted once a week for a six-week period where the participant will take a dose of propranolol (or a placebo pill) 60 minutes prior to memory reactivation. The investigators hypothesize that reconsolidation blockade treatment will be as effective in treating PTSD among military personnel and Federal police officers, with the mismatch condition showing greater symptom improvement.
According to literature, it's difficult to evaluate the impact of the visit of the child in ICU. Currently, no recommendations are available regarding welcome and accompany children who visit their relative hospitalized in ICU. Collaboration between humanities and medical sciences brings to this question a complementary look. Majority of studies investigated the question of the impact of young child ICU visit in a unidirectional linear causality scheme visit = psychopathological impact. The visit of the child in ICU should not be considered as an isolated event whose objective characteristics would be alone vectors of trauma. Contrary, the child visit must be apprehended in relation to the quality of the supports on which the child can count. The investigators hypothesize that children can overcome the visit of a kin hospitalized in ICU if accompanying people can support the child and contain, before and after the visit, the emotions of the child.
