Filter by:Abstract Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of individualized nursing interventions based on the Roy Adaptation Model on the recovery of alcohol addicts. Method: This was an experimental study with pretest-posttest, follow-up, and a control group. It included 64 individuals who completed their detoxification process and met the inclusion criteria. The experimental group was provided with individualized care, and interventions were made in line with the Roy Adaptation Model. The personal behaviors that could be related to recurrence (physiological, self-concept, role function, and mutual commitment) and the stimuli that caused recurrence (focal and affecting) were assessed, objectives were determined, and nursing interventions were carried out in line with these objectives. The interventions planned for diagnosing ineffective coping were selected according to the patients' needs among the "support coping" interventions under the title of the behavioral area in the Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC). The data were collected using an introductory information form, the Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS), the Turkish Version of the World Health Organization Quality of Life Instrument (WHOQOL-BREF-TR), and the Penn Alcohol Craving Scale (PACS).
The goal of this observational study is to investigate longitudinal stress response profiles and adaptive versus non-adaptive stress responses in alcohol use disorder. The main questions the projects aims to answer are: What are the neurobehavioral underpinnings of adaptive stress responses and resilience to repeated stress exposure with regards to: - alcohol craving? - alcohol use? - their modulation by prior stress exposure, social interactions, coping strategies and individual health behavior? Participants will: - be exposed to an established experimental stress-induction protocol, the Trier Social Stress Test - be exposed to their favorite drink in a bar lab environment - be assessed using fMRI to determine their neural alcohol cue reactivity, response inhibition, and emotion processing - conduct an ambulatory phase to assess stressors, alcohol craving, substance use and details on social interactions, health behavior and coping strategies using ecological momentary assessment tools.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of mobile interventions in reducing craving and lapses in patients diagnosed with Substance Use Disorder. In a two-armed, randomized controlled trial the efficacy of self-guided psychological intervention delivered via a mobile app (Nałogometr 2.0) will be assessed. During the course of three months, participants will have access to intervention modules, based mainly on mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the use of ecological momentary assessment (EMA), longitudinal data on several variables related to craving and lapse risk will be collected. Additionally, a questionnaire battery assessment - administered monthly - will measure severity of substance dependence, levels of anxiety, depression, and life satisfaction.
Alcohol use disorders are a major public health problem in Europe. The average prevalence of Alcohol Use Disorders (AUD) in the general population is 7.5%, although there are large variations between countries. According to the literature, 20 to 30% of children have parents with problematic alcohol use. Public health authorities are alarmed by the precociousness of alcohol consumption in the youngest age and by the prevalence of alcohol consumption in adolescence. One of the well-established risk factors for alcohol use and abuse is having a parent with AUD. Compared with people growing up without any parent with AUD, the relative risk of suffering negative life events in childhood is 2 to 13 times higher if one or both parents have alcohol use disorders. A family history of Alcohol Use Disorders is predictive of earlier alcohol, tobacco, or cannabis use in adolescence, but it is also associated with a higher risk of developing substance use disorders.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of long-term and short-term app-based self-guided psychological interventions to reduce craving and lapse risk in users with substance use disorder or problematic substance use (alcohol and stimulants). Participants are randomly assigned to thirteen different groups to compare the effectiveness of particular long-term interventions. A questionnaire battery assessment is administered (1) at baseline in the first week following onboarding in; (2) after 5 weeks; (3) after six months. In addition, longitudinal data on several variables related to craving and lapse risk are collected daily using ecological momentary assessment.
The principle is to propose dedicated monthly screening days bringing together the health personnel involved (hepatologist, addictologist, nurse in charge of the program, addictology nurse and social worker) and to propose appropriate management for each situation assessed.
Addiction care is "a la carte treatment", adapted to the motivation and time constrains of users. Thus, various types of psychotherapeutic follow-up can be considered, different addictolytic medications or opioid maintenance therapies can be offered during treatment and hospitalization must be adaptable. In liver transplantation (LT), sustained alcohol relapse is a critical issue because it increases medium and long-term morbidity and mortality. In recent years, the issue of severe acute alcoholic hepatitis as an indication for LT has necessitated increased focus on appropriate alcohol monitoring around liver transplantation. Previously, alcohol consumption in pre- and post-LT period was mainly self-reported. More recently, the biological markers of excessive alcohol consumption have been validated in liver disease and can play a role in liver transplant recipients follow-up. The investigator hypothesize that standardized targeted addiction monitoring of LT patients decreases the rates of sustained alcohol relapse one year post liver transplantation.
In this study, investigators aim to reveal the harmful effects of increasing consumption of homemade beer in recent years on the urinary tract. The high amount of carbonyl compounds in the content of homemade beer has been proven by studies. In this study, which will be conducted in the form of a questionnaire, it is aimed to evaluate the effects of the consumption of homemade beer and the long-term exposure of the urinary system to carbonyl compounds.
The study is a single-blinded, randomized, controlled, 12 months clinical trial. The objective is to investigate the feasibility, effects and side-effects of virtual reality-assisted cognitive behavioral therapy (VR-CBT) vs. cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in patients with a diagnosis of alcohol dependence.
The pilot study is a single-blinded, randomized, controlled, 2 months clinical trial. The objective is to investigate the feasibility, effects and side-effects of virtual reality-assisted cognitive behavioral therapy (VR-CBT) vs. cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on alcohol intake in patients with a diagnosis of alcohol dependence.
