Filter by:To evaluate the impact of a specific nursing management (personalized and close, through consultation at the hospital, at home or by phone) monitoring in post-hospitalization, the suicide attempt of recurrence and suicidal crisis, in the year following a suicide attempt in patients suffering from a mood disorder (unipolar or bipolar) or reactive depression.
The aim of this study was to assess the effects of a 5-week standardized cognitive behavioral treatment of stress management conducted via e-learning or face-to-face on patients responding to the diagnosis of adjustment disorder with anxiety (ADA) according to the DSM- 5 (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fifth Edition) criteria .
Stress disorders in form of adjustment disorder and burnout syndrom are highly prevalent and cause substantial suffering. Prior evidence suggest that these disorders may be effectively treated with cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), but access to psychological treatment is limited. One possible solution is to provide therapy via the Internet, which has been shown to be effective for anxiety disorders and depression. In the present study, we will investigate the efficacy of Internet-based CBT (ICBT) for adjustment disorders and burnout syndrom in a randomized controlled trial (N=100). Participants will be randomized to active treatment (n=50) or a control condition on waiting list.
The purpose of this study is to determine the differential efficacy of two ways of applying homework assignments in the treatment of Adjustment Disorders: 1) using an Internet-based emotional regulation therapy system (TEO) and 2) in the traditional way (using reading and audio materials). The principal hypothesis is that both treatment conditions (TEO and Traditional) will show a similar efficacy. All participants will improve significantly on all outcome measures, regardless the type of homework assigned (TEO or Traditional) with no differences between them.
The Objectives of the current research is to evaluate whether psychological flexibility influences psychotherapy outcomes in patients with adjustment disorder and depression. If indeed this is the case, we would be able to identify risk factors for low adjustment- such as low psychological flexibility, and develop psychotherapy that would try to enhance this ability.
Evidence-based clinical treatments for common mental disorders, such as CBT and/or pharmacotherapy, have resulted in significant and sustained improvement in clinical symptoms. However, the individual-focused treatments rarely have sickness absence as a target of intervention or evaluate work-related outcomes, such as return to work. A recent review of the evidence for managing stress at work showed that individual interventions give effects on mental health measures but did not impact absenteeism at work. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of two different rehabilitation models, one based on psychotherapy and the other on workplace-interventions, when these are offered as standalone interventions and in combination for patients with adjustment, anxiety and depressive disorders.
The purpose of this pilot-study is to evaluate a cognitive behavioral method "Psychological First Aid" used with a group of children (11-16 years) in high risk of developing psychological problems. Participants are recruited from a low-threshold program ("The Children's House in Oslo") where counseling is given to children suspected of being physically or sexually abused, or having witnessed domestic violence. The study includes twelve children and teenagers that receive 2 to 6 sessions of counseling. Psychological problems (e.g. anxiety, depression, reactions to trauma) and quality of life will be assessed at pre- post and follow-up (after 3, 6 and 12 months). In addition, some symptoms of will be assessed daily.
This project evaluates the outcomes of a work rehabilitation program, Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDO), for women with stress-related disorders. The ReDO intervention focuses on how people compose their everyday lives. The basic idea is that re-structuring of an individual's lifestyle and pattern of daily occupations will lead to a healthier balance between the occupations of everyday life, and that this balance will promote wellness and increased work capacity. The program is group based and comprises 16 weeks. The aim is to evaluate ReDO for women with stress-related disorders. The project, which covers the time period from entering the program to a 12-month follow-up, is a quasi-experimental study. 42 women who entered the program and fitted the selection criteria were included. A matched comparison group was selected among those clients at the Social Insurance Office who get "care-as-usual" (CAU). Both groups are followed prospectively and are compared regarding return to work, sick leave, and different aspects of health and well-being. The hypothesis is that the ReDO group will improve more than the CAU group in all these respects.
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of a cognitive-existential intervention (using either an individual or a group format) to improve the existential and global quality of life of patients as compared to usual care in a population of adult non-metastatic cancer patients.
Neuropattern is a first translational tool in stress medicine. Neuropattern is a diagnostic tool, which can be applied by in- and outpatients and physicians to detect dysregulation in the stress response network. The physician provides anamnestic and anthropometric data, while the patient takes other measures at home, e.g. psychological, symptomatic, and biological data. Among the biological data are ECG measures for analyses of heart rate variability, and salivary cortisol measures before and after a dexamethasone challenge test. All data are analyzed in a central laboratory, which generates a written report for the physician, including a disease model, from which personalized recommendations for pharmacological and psychological treatments are derived. Neuropattern additionally offers individualized internet modules to inform the patient about the disease model and to teach him/her what he/she can do to improve his/her medical conditions. The current study applies Neuropattern in 2000 patients of family doctors, suffering from major depression, depressive episodes, adjustment disorders, and somatoform disorders. The patients receive either unspecific or individualized internet modules in a randomized order.
