Filter by:Induction of anesthesia can be distressing both for children and their parents. Nonpharmacological behavioral interventions can reduce the anxiety of children without significant adverse effects as seen with sedative drugs. The aim of this study will be to evaluate whether the children's or parental preference with attending parent affects on the postoperative delirium of the children or not. The delirium of the children will be assessed by the Pediatric Anesthesia Occurrence Delirium Scale (PAED)
The goal of this feasibility study is to investigate the feasibility of a personalized naturalistic Virtual Reality scenario by assessing motion-sickness effects, engagement, pleasantness, and emotions felt considering a sample of individuals with cognitive impairment resident at the Azienda Pubblica di Servizi alla Persona (APSP) "Margherita Grazioli", a long-term care home in Trento (Italy) in collaboration with the Department of General Psychology - University of Padova (Italy) and the Centre for Health and Wellbeing-Fondazione Bruno Kessler (Italy). The current proof-of-concept and feasibility study is a one-session single-centre trial based on a mixed-methods approach inspired by the Obesity-Related Behavioral Intervention Trials (ORBIT) framework for the design (Phase Ib) of digital interventions and their preliminary testing (Phase IIa).
The goal of this interventional study is to reduce preoperative anxiety by Virtual Reality mindfulness. Population: all adults, able to give their consent and scheduled for surgery with high preoperative anxiety defined by Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) score > 10. The study will recruit 100 patients in one university teaching hospital. The main question it aims to answer is: may mindfulness by Virtual Reality reduce preoperative anxiety in patients particularly anxious for the surgery? Participants will be asked to undergo to a single mindfulness virtual reality session before the surgery.
This randomized controlled study was planned to evaluate the effects of distraction methods, using virtual reality or a stress ball, on the emotional appearance, pain, fear, and anxiety associated with the procedure, during the phlebotomy in children aged 6-12 in a private blood collection unit.
The objective of this preliminary study is therefore to assess the feasibility, safety and reduction of perioperative anxiety thanks to acupressing. In addition, patients undergoing oocyte retrieval often present postoperatively with nausea, abdominal pain and discomfort. Acupuncture could also help these patients.
Psychological causes are often cited as the most important of the underlying factors for bruxism. However, there are very few studies that can objectively demonstrate this. There are studies that are generally based on subjective data, that is, on questionnaires that indicate anxiety or stress. Recent studies have shown that tryptophan and its metabolites are associated with psychological health. In this study, researchers will measure the serum values of metabolites in the tryptophan pathway. Also, researchers will observe whether these metabolite levels differ significantly in patients with and without bruxism.
Risk factors associated with perioperative anxiety in parents of pediatric patients undergoing thoracic surgery are unknown. It is therefore necessary to identify them in order to better understand, above all, modifiable factors. This will allow the implementation of psychological interventions tailored to the individual needs of parents to strengthen their coping mechanisms before surgery, and thus facilitate the recovery process of their children after surgery. The purpose of the study is: 1. assessment of the level of anxiety experienced by parents before and after thoracic surgery, 2. assessment of risk factors for parents' perioperative anxiety, 3. assessment of the relationship between parents' perioperative anxiety and satisfaction with postoperative analgesia
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effect of lavender essential oil on pre-procedure anxiety for patients undergoing ultrasound guided musculoskeletal procedures
Induction of anesthesia can be distressing both for children and their parents. Nonpharmacological behavioral interventions can reduce the anxiety of children without significant adverse effects as seen with sedative drugs. has not been documented. The aim of this study will be to evaluate the effect of children's preference on parental selection during the induction of anesthesia on children and parental anxiety during the perioperative period.
An upper digestive endoscopy diagnostic procedure is undoubtedly a situation that will generate anxiety. The environment, protocols, distance the patient from the family member or partner, which is perceived as a threat to integrity. The objective of the study is to determine the effectiveness of a structured, significant follow-up nursing intervention to reduce anxiety in patients who are going to undergo upper digestive endoscopy in a public hospital in the Biobío Region, year 2021. The methodological proposal will be in a randomized, single-blind, third-party evaluation clinical trial, the intervention will consist of the visual and tactile presence of a significant companion throughout the endoscopic procedure. The sample will be 126 that will make up the experimental and control group. It is hypothesized that patients who have a significant follow-up will obtain 10 points less on the anxiety scale compared to those who did not have the intervention. The data will be collected with the Spielberg state / anxiety test (STAIT) and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) to measure psychological effects, with vital parameters (pressure, pulse, respiration, saturometry), physiological effects, as well as the effects biochemicals with blood levels of potassium, glycemia and cortisol in saliva and mechanical effects through the monitoring of movements, using a mesh of pressure sensors. The difference-in-difference statistical method will be applied by t student, to analyze the data. The requirements of Emmanuel will be applied to safeguard the ethics of the study. It is hoped that significant follow-up as a nursing intervention will be shown to reduce the anxiety of the patient who is going to undergo an endoscopic procedure.
