Filter by: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.
The aim was to determine the effects of digital game play on children's pain, fear and anxiety levels during suturing. Data was obtained from 84 children between the ages of 8-17 at the Pediatric Emergency Department between 16 January and 19 March 2020, using the Socio-Demographic and Clinical Characteristics Form, the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale (WBFPS), the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Fear of Medical Procedure Scale (FMPS), and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children (STAI-CH). While the study group (n=42) played digital games during the suturing procedure, the control group (n=42) did not play digital games.
The main goal of this research is to assess the efficacy of a 10-week home-delivered cognitive-emotional intervention program for homebound older adults presenting Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and depressive and/or anxiety symptoms. The Homebound Elderly People Psychotherapeutic Intervention (HEPPI) combines cognitive training, psychotherapeutic techniques, and compensatory strategy training, and was designed to optimize memory function and to reduce depressive or anxious symptomatology of these older adults. A two-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) is conducted to investigate the efficacy of the HEPPI among the homebound older population.
Chronic anxiety is a growing psychological challenge worldwide and at pre-clinical levels, can be disabling. Some research suggests music may reduce anxiety symptoms as effectively as anti-anxiety drugs without the adverse side effects. The iso principle suggests that the effectiveness of music interventions for mood management can be maximized by commencing a session with music that matches an individual's current emotional state and then gradually moving toward their desired emotional state. Our previous work demonstrated that a playlist generated by a music recommendation system that uses the iso-principal, along with music informatics, auditory beat stimulation, and reinforcement learning can reduce somatic and cognitive anxiety. However, it is unknown whether music playlists based on the iso-principal alone can reduce anxiety. In this study, the investigators wish to examine whether music playlists (~30 min long) based on the iso-principal (neutral to calm) will reduce anxiety after anxiety induction compared to a calm music playlist. The investigators hypothesize that the iso-principal playlist will have greater state anxiety reduction compared to the calm playlist.
Anxiety is a growing problem and has been steadily increasing, particularly in the adolescent and young adult populations in the past 24 years. Music and auditory beat stimulation (ABS) in the theta frequency range (4-7 Hz) are sound-based anxiety treatments that have been investigated in prior studies with subjective measures of anxiety. Here, the anxiety-reducing potential of calm music combined with theta ABS will be examined in a large sample of participants with objective psychophysiological measures (heart rate variability and EEG), stress hormone measures (salivary cortisol) along with subjective measures (STICSA state). Participants with moderate trait anxiety (n = 100) will be randomly assigned to a single 24-minute session of sound-based treatment: combined (music & ABS), or pink noise (control). Pre- and post-intervention heart rate variability and EEG band power (alpha, beta, delta, and theta bands), along with somatic and cognitive state anxiety measures (STICSA State) will be collected along with trait anxiety (STICSA Trait), and musical preferences (Short Test of Music Preferences). Our hypothesis is that the music & ABS condition will have significantly higher EEG theta band activity and heart rate variability compared to the pink noise control condition. The investigators also expect to see significantly reduces higher state anxiety reduction in the music & ABS condition compared to the pink noise control condition. Participants with moderate trait anxiety (n = 100) will be randomly assigned to a single 24-minute session of sound-based treatment: combined (music & ABS), or pink noise (control). Pre- and post-intervention heart rate variability and EEG band power (alpha, beta, delta, and theta bands), along with somatic and cognitive state anxiety measures (STICSA State) will be collected along with trait anxiety (STICSA Trait), and musical preferences (Short Test of Music Preferences). The investigators predict that the music & ABS condition will have significantly increased power in the theta and alpha bands, higher heart rate variability, higher state anxiety reduction, and lower salivary cortisol levels compared to the pink noise control condition.
