Filter by:It is an experimental study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of cold application to the LI4 point of the hand to reduce/eliminate pain, nausea and anxiety in postoperative patients. The population of the study consisted of 116 individuals who underwent abdominal surgery with the open surgery method in a state hospital between February 2022 and November 2022 and were followed up in the inpatient ward. The study was completed with 80 individuals constituting the experimental group (n=40) and the control group (n=40). Patient information form, Mcgill Melzack short pain form, Visual Analog Scale, STAI - TX and Cold Application Evaluation Form were used to collect data. Patients in the experimental group underwent cold application with ice cubes for a total of 20 minutes as 2 minutes of cold application and 15 seconds of waiting 4-6 hours after the patient was admitted to the clinic after surgical intervention. Follow-up was performed before cold application, immediately after cold application, 30 minutes after the end of cold application, 1 hour and 2 hours after the end of cold application.
This study is a 28-day randomized controlled trial (RCT). Residents were randomly assigned to an intervention group or a waiting group according to the order in which they were successfully contacted by the staff, and each user was asked to engage in a total of 28 days of dialog intervention with the Douyin companion bot and complete three psychological questionnaires (on Days 1, 14, and 28); however, the intervention group began to receive the dialog intervention after completing the first questionnaire, and the waiting group began to receive the dialog intervention after completing the third questionnaire. During the first four weeks, the waiting group was treated as a blank control. The two groups of subjects completed the three questionnaires at exactly the same point in time. Each user's depression, anxiety, and positive and negative emotions were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) and the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), respectively.
The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using vacutainers of three different animal characters.
The conventional method used for dental anesthesia in children is the administration of a local anesthetic solution by injection. Although this process successfully eliminates pain during the procedure, it continues to be a problem for many children in terms of dental anxiety before and during anesthesia administration. The aim of this study is to compare intraosseous anesthesia with SleeperOne® 5, a computer-assisted local anesthesia system, with conventional local anesthesia techniques in terms of pain and anxiety.
This study aims to measure the effectiveness of the Music Therapy nursing intervention in reducing anxiety in outpatients diagnosed with severe mental illness (SMI) (bipolar disorder and schizophrenia). The intervention was structured over five weeks (ten 1-hour sessions, twice weekly). Objective measures (blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate) and subjective measures (anxiety response and the subjective perception of relaxation) were taken before and after every session.
The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of the use of a electric ride-on car during transport to the operating theatre on preoperative anxiety in children undergoing elective ambulatory surgery. As a distraction method, children in the experimental group will be introduced to the operating theatre with a electric ride-on car. Yale Modified Preoperative Anxiety Scale Child Form will be used to evaluate anxiety. The sample size was determined as 118 as a result of power analysis. 59 children will be included in the experimental group and 59 children in the control group.

Objective: To collect preliminary data and assess the preliminary effectiveness of a game-based digital therapeutics (DTx) intervention for individuals with symptoms of anxiety and depression, and to investigate whether reinforcement learning (RL) can personalize the intervention and enhance effectiveness. Design: Randomized controlled trial with three arms. Setting: Internet-based recruitment and delivery of the intervention. Participants: 223 individuals with symptoms of anxiety and depression, aged between 18 and 50 years. Interventions: Participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups: game-based DTx with RL algorithm (RL algorithm group), game-based DTx without RL algorithm (no algorithm group), and a blank control group. Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary outcomes were reductions in symptoms of anxiety and depression, measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scales. Response rates and rates of recovery, as well as the impact of demographic variables, were also examined.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about in effect of consecutive dental visits on dental anxiety of paediatric patients. The main question[s]it aims to answer are: - Did the anxiety level of pediatric patients decrease in consecutive treatment sessions? - Were there changes in the physiological parameters related to stress level of pediatric patients in consecutive treatment sessions? Participants will fill out the questionnaire about dental anxiety in each dental treatment sessions before and after dental treatment. Researchers will compare paeditric patients have two caries on mandibular molars to see if changes dental anxiety levels and physiological parameters such as heart rates and oxygen saturations during dental treatments in consecutive dental treatment sessions.
Coronary angiography serves as the primary diagnostic technique for cardiovascular disease. However, this invasive procedure commonly triggers pain, anxiety, and fear in patients. The objective of this randomized controlled trial was to examine the impact of music and breathing exercises on anxiety and pain levels in individuals undergoing coronary angiography. The study, conducted as a single-blind, randomized controlled trial, involved a sample of 165 patients, with 55 in each group: the control group, the breathing exercise group, and the music therapy group. Patients in the music group listened to music during angiography, those in the breathing exercise group practiced exercises 30 minutes before the procedure, while the control group received standard treatment. Anxiety levels were assessed both before and after the procedure, and pain levels were measured post-procedure. The study strictly adhered to the CONSORT statement guidelines.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effectiveness of immersive virtual reality (IVR) and music on children's anxiety, fear, and pain levels during circumcision surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Are immersive virtual reality and music interventions effective in reducing children's anxiety and fear levels during circumcision surgery? 2. Are immersive virtual reality and music interventions effective in reducing children's pain levels during circumcision surgery? There were three groups in the study: control group (n:24), immersive virtual reality group (n:24), and music group (n:24). The control group did not undergo any intervention and only the routine procedure of the clinic was performed. The participants in the immersive virtual reality group played an interactive video game. The participants in the music group listened to music of their preference.
