Filter by:Background: Different intravenous sedative drugs have been utilized for colonoscopy, with many anesthetists for painless sedation or monitored anesthesia care. The aim of this study was the quality of colonoscopy and the incidence of adverse events such as respiratory depression, hemodynamic instability, and failure to provide adequate sedation.
This thesis study was conducted in an unblinded, randomized controlled experimental manner in order to analyze the effect of attention-drawing methods that can be used during intramuscular injection in children on pain and anxiety.
This mechanistic study uses an anti anxiety drug and brain imaging to study the threat processing system and associated brain circuits in people with depression, anxiety disorders and comorbid depression and anxiety disorders. In a double blind, placebo controlled crossover design, up to 65 individuals will be recruited who will have a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and at least one anxiety disorder (AD) (AD-MDD group), up to 65 participants will have a diagnosis of MDD and no diagnosis of an AD and up to 65 participants will have no diagnosis of MDD and a diagnosis of at least one AD will be enrolled to participate in an two session study to obtain 150 completers (50 per group). All participants will receive a single dose of Lorazepam and placebo (order randomized) taken orally. After the ~2.5 hr screening session, participants will complete two identical ~5 hr experimental sessions, each of which include a 30 min eyeblink startle session and a 1 hr functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scan session. The total time involved in the study is approximately 10.5 hours. The main questions the study seeks to answer are: - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their eyeblink startle response to threat? - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their brain activation in response to threat? - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their responses to anxiety drugs?
The objective of this observational study was to assess whether music and sports play interventions were effective in reducing stress, anxiety and fear of COVID-19 among secondary school students in Gansu Province; The effects of music, sports games, and music combined with sports games were compared.
Introduction Ocular intravitreal injection is a widely used ophthalmic invasive technique to administer medication directly inside the patient's eye. Despite being usually a quick and painless intervention, some patients report nervousness and anxiety before and during the procedure. Music therapy could help in assessing this discomfort, as previous studies have shown it can beneficial, specially helping to reduce anxiety levels. Objective This study aims to assess the effect of music therapy on patients undergoing intravitreal injections and how it affects their anxiety. Methods This is a randomized, prospective, single blind, clinical trial. Patients will be divided into two groups. Group A patients will listen to classical music during the procedure (intervention). Group B patients (control), will not listen to music during the procedure. All other aspects of the procedure will be the same for both groups. To analyze the impact music therapy, patients will fill in the STAI anxiety questionnaire and will be evaluated with the pain visual analogue scale (VAS) before and after the injection procedure. Expected results Subjects that undergo the procedure with music therapy are expected to experience less anxiety that the ones that do not. Less pain perception is also expected.
This research is a randomized controlled experimental study designed to determine the effect of the Quantum-Touch method applied during the vascular access procedure in children aged 7-12 years, on the level of pain, fear and anxiety in children.
Transrectal prostate biopsy is a commonly performed ambulatory procedure for diagnosing prostate cancer. Prostate biopsy are associated with pain or anxiety. Nitrous oxide (or laughing gas) is a well-known inhaled anesthetic which is frequently used in dental offices and for pediatric procedures to alleviate a patient's anxiety and pain. This study seeks to determine whether administration of nitrous oxide at the time of prostate biopsy will improve a patient's experience of care.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of aromatherapy impacts patient anxiety and pain scores surrounding port access in pediatric oncology patients between the ages of 4 years and 18 years.
The goal of this pilot experimental study is to test a community-informed art-based programme in improving community members trauma from crime and to aid the reintegration of ex-offenders into society. The main question it aims to answer are: • What is the feasibility in terms of recruitment, retention, adherence to the intervention and communities/victims' satisfaction with CiAbP to promote healing and improve the successful reintegration of ex-offenders into society? Participants will be randomly allocated into two groups. The first group, the intervention group, will receive the Community-informed Art-based programme (CiAbP). The second group will receive government intervention involving media messages from the National Orientation Agency devoid of CiAbP. The CiAbP. sessions will cover relevant aspects of art, such as photo story, story telling, poetry, and drawing in tackling trauma and negative attitudes towards ex-offenders reintegration. Researchers will compare CiAbP group with the media orientation group to see if there are differences between a change in attitude towards ex-offenders' reintegration at base line, end of intervention and three months follow up.
PRO-MENTAL is a non-interventional, prospective, observational study investigating longitudinal associations between diabetes distress, mental disorders, and glycemic outcomes in people with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). The study aims to determine mental health subtypes, trajectories, and patterns and to advance a precision medicine approach to improve mental health in people with diabetes through personalized care and interventions. A total of 1500 people with T1D or T2D will participate in the study, running over a 24-month period. Participants will be recruited at different levels of diabetes care including specialized centers and hospitals. The assessment includes a baseline assessment (clinical interview, questionnaire survey, and laboratory assessment) and four subsequent measurement time points - every six months - to a total period of two years. Each measurement time point includes an online questionnaire survey as well as a 14-day ambulatory assessment of daily mental and somatic variables (smartphone-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA) of daily sleep quality, mood, stress, and diabetes-related burdens/distress, as well as continuous glucose measurement (CGM) of daily glucose levels). The study uses precision monitoring to identify evidence-based subgroups of people with diabetes with regard to mental disorders/problems and glycemic outcome. Epidemiological data regarding prevalence and incidence rates of depression, anxiety, and eating disorders will be analyzed, and patient trajectories and patterns will be determined. The study also aims to shed more light on the mediating mechanisms between mental health and glycemic outcomes. The findings of the study will be used as the basis to develop a precision medicine approach with personalized interventions for specific sub-groups of people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
