Filter by:Aim: This study was conducted to determine the efficacy of finger puppets, distraction cards and kaleidoscope for reducing anxiety in children undergoing day surgery. Methods: The study was conducted using the "pre-post test unmatched group model", one of the quasi-experimental methods. The study was conducted between April 2023 and January 2024 with children aged 6-12 years who were admitted to the pediatric clinic of a hospital for day surgery. A total of 85 children (including 20 children in the control group, 22 children in the finger puppet intervention group, 21 children in the distraction cards intervention group, and 22 children in the kaleidoscope intervention group) who were hospitalized in the pediatric clinic between April 2023 and January 2024 and who met the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney U test, Kruskal Wallis and regression analysis were used in the evaluation of the data.
This study aimed to determine the feasibility and acceptability of delivering Resilience Training in multi-user virtual reality.
It is known that posture is affected by various factors such as somatosensation, visual perception and cognition. In addition, it is also thought to affect conditions such as stress and anxiety through receptors. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between postural changes such as thoracic kyphosis, musculoskeletal problems, trunk position sense and anxiety in young individuals who were asymptomatic in terms of musculoskeletal problems.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test ALDER (Anxiety Lowering and Deprescribing through Emotion Regulation), an online self-guided positive emotion intervention, in patients over the age of 65 who are candidates for benzodiazepine receptor agonist (BZRA, commonly called benzos, or z-drugs) deprescribing. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is ALDER relevant to and satisfactory for older adult BZRA users? - Does ALDER help to increase positive emotions and decrease anxiety, trouble sleeping, and use of BZRA medications? Participants will complete the 5-week online self-guided ALDER intervention as well as two survey assessments, one before the intervention and one after.
This U.S. Phase 3 clinical trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the acute intranasal (i.n.) administration of Fasedienol Nasal Spray (fasedienol) (3.2 µg) to relieve symptoms of acute anxiety in adult subjects ages 18 through 65 with Social Anxiety Disorder induced by a public speaking challenge (PSC) in a clinical setting. In addition, safety and tolerability of i.n. administration of 3.2 µg of fasedienol, as-needed, up to 6 times per day for up to 12 months, will be assessed in those subjects who complete PALISADE-3 and choose to enter the distinct open-label extension phase of the study.
Patients undergoing either thyroid or prostate biopsy under local anesthetic will be asked to fill out a questionnaire that evaluates their anxiety level before and after a thyroid or prostate biopsy procedure that they undergo. Patients will be randomly assigned to either use an anxiety reducing tool (stress balls in each hand) to take their mind off the procedure or will not receive an anxiety reducing tool.
Emerging evidence has shown that sleep interventions such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) improve depressive and anxiety symptoms in adults, even when the intervention is brief, such as four to six sessions. The overarching aim of the proposed research is to conduct a pilot trial to evaluate whether a brief intervention for insomnia adapted for improves sleep and subthreshold depressive and anxiety symptoms in adolescents at risk (i.e., with a parental history of depressive or anxiety disorders).
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.
Coronary artery bypass surgery (CABC) is a commonly performed surgical procedure for the treatment of blockages in the heart vessels. This surgical intervention aims to improve the blood circulation of the patients' heart muscle. However, after CABC, patients may experience symptoms arising from the effect of the operation. These symptoms include shortness of breath, chest pain, sleep problems and a general feeling of restlessness. These symptoms occur as a result of the operation and can limit patients' daily activities, negatively affect their quality of life, and make the rehabilitation process difficult. Diaphragmatic breathing exercise can be an effective strategy for managing symptoms after CABC. This exercise involves deep and controlled breathing and aims to strengthen respiratory muscles, increase lung capacity and improve respiratory efficiency. Diaphragmatic breathing exercise helps breathing occur more efficiently by reducing the movement of the chest wall and can reduce patients' breathing difficulties. Diaphragmatic breathing exercise provides relaxation in the body by calming the sympathetic nervous system and can reduce stress during the sleep process. In this way, patients can experience a deeper and more restful sleep and feel more energetic when they wake up. At the same time, diaphragmatic breathing exercise improves mental state and reduces the effects of stress by providing focus and mental relaxation. This thesis study aims to investigate the effect of diaphragmatic breathing exercise applied to patients undergoing CABC on symptom severity, sleep quality and anxiety. The importance of this study is that it has great potential for managing symptoms after CABC and improving patients' quality of life. Diaphragmatic breathing exercise is expected to be effective in reducing symptoms after CABC, allowing patients to improve their respiratory functions and general health status. Additionally, investigating the effects of this exercise on patients' sleep quality and anxiety may help nurses adopt a more holistic approach in healthcare delivery.
This study will investigate the parent-based treatment SPACE: Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions. The aim of this study is to investigate whether SPACE is effective in reducing family accommodation (FA) and OCD symptoms in children with a complex obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), that did not or cannot benefit from first line treatment.
