Filter by:The aim of this trial study is to identify the effect of S-VR on comfort and self-efficacy of symptom management in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Additional objectives of this study include: (a) identifying the effect of S-VR on anxiety in chemotherapy patients; (b) identifying the effect of S-VR on pain intensity of chemotherapy patients; (c) identifying the effect of S-VR on vital signs (pulse and blood pressure) of chemotherapy patients. Participants is randomly assigned into two group: SVR intervention group and control group. In the SVR group, participants will use a VR device (head-mounted display/HMD) with 360-degree natural panoramic and music relaxation contents. Control group will receive standard care in the form of guided imagery leaflet. The research will adhere to the ethical standards outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki and its subsequent amendments, as well as the protocol under reviewed by Medical and Health Research Ethics Committee (MHREC) Faculty of Medicine, Public Health and Nursing Universitas Gadjah Mada - Dr. Sardjito General Hospital Yogyakarta (Approval Number: KE/FK/0301/EC/2023). A formal informed consent will be obtained from all study participants. Validation number: 63f81182672f3 (http://komisietik.fk.ugm.ac.id/validasi)
This is an observational study aimed at exploring the relationship between psychological status and self-care in patients with chronic cardiovascular disease
This study uses a multiple-baseline design and aims to replicate findings that a digital music-based mindfulness intervention can reduce elevated race-based state anxiety in Black Americans.
The perioperative setting is a common site of pediatric anxiety and distress. Perioperative anxiety in pediatric patients can result in uncooperative behavior, poor postoperative outcomes, and trauma. Given the fast-paced nature of the perioperative environment, many anxiety measures are too time consuming for clinical implementation prior to surgery. Pediatric anesthesiologists need reliable and efficient assessment tools to quickly measure childhood distress to target prophylactic and therapeutic interventions.
A structured group art therapy intervention, comprising six 60 - 90-minute weekly workshops.
This project will involve testing a brief (~30 minute) digital intervention aimed at teaching youth the evidence-based strategy of changing unhelpful thoughts (i.e., cognitive restructuring). The investigators will test the intervention's efficacy compared to an active control condition. Participants (students in grades 5-10 in U.S. schools) will be asked to complete measures of mental health and well-being prior to the intervention as well as 1, 3, and 6-months after the intervention. If the intervention is found to be effective, its brevity and scalability would make it an invaluable resource for supplementing traditional psychotherapy and potentially preventing the onset of mental illness requiring specialized intensive care.
The primary purpose of this study is to examine the effects of laughter therapy on tex anxiety and educational stress in 8th-grade students.
Two-arm, parallel group randomized clinical trial conducted via Mturk comparing a single-session web-based intervention called Compassionate Care versus a control intervention (nature videos with relaxing music) for adults with moderate-to-severe stress, depression and/or anxiety symptoms.
The primary aim of the proposed Randomised Control study is to investigate the effects of a socially assisted robot (i.e. Purrble) and a co-designed, bespoke Single Session Intervention (SSI) on students' anxiety (GAD-7) over the period of the two academic terms (in comparison to a wait-listed student group). Secondary aims include investigating the effects of the Purrble and SSI on students' emotion regulation processes, depressive symptoms, and quantitative and qualitative (interviews) measures of engagement with the intervention.
Chemotherapy is a treatment that uses natural or synthetic chemicals and biological agents to kill rapidly proliferating cells. As chemotherapeutic drugs prevent the growth and proliferation of cancer cells, they also inhibit the growth of normal cells such as intestinal and oral mucosal epithelium, bone marrow cells, and hair follicle cells. During chemotherapy treatment, which is widely used in the treatment of cancer cases and considered one of the most effective methods of cancer treatment, individuals; may experience side effects such as nausea-vomiting, loss of appetite, mouth ulcers, pain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and changes in their skin and nails. There are several factors that can trigger anxiety in cancer patients: fear of cancer and its treatment-related side effects, fear of relapse after treatment, uncertainty, concerns about changing roles and relationships, and fear of death. Treatment methods are available for a variety of side effects and negative effects experienced by cancer patients. These methods include pharmacological and nonpharmacological approaches. For example, benzodiazepines are frequently used to treat anxiety in cancer patients. If benzodiazepines are not adequate, low-dose antipsychotics can be used. However, benzodiazepines and their derivatives may reduce respiratory function, induce sedation, and cause confusion. Music is an example of non-pharmacological cognitive-behavioral treatment that is used to control negative symptoms in many fields. The use of music for healing is easy, has no side effects, and is beneficial for physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Anxiety and fear can be reduced by therapeutic music, which increases endorphin secretion and positive emotions. Treatment of serious illnesses such as cancer requires a holistic approach that includes psychological, social, and spiritual support in addition to pharmacological treatment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine how different types of music affect cancer patients' anxiety and satisfaction during chemotherapy.
