One important part of individual nursing care is that that nurses teach and apply breathing exercises, which are vital and increase the patient's quality of life, in the light of their current knowledge and skills. The purpose of this study was therefore to determine the effect of postoperative breathing exercises on pain and anxiety in patients hospitalized in the general surgery clinic and who had undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
This research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to reduce the anxiety felt by expectant mothers in relation to pregnancy during pregnancy.
Stress management in dialysis patients plays a key role in reducing these negativities and in maintaining both physical and mental well-being. In dialysis patients, on the other hand, the effectiveness of stress ball use on comfort and stress was evaluated, and no study was found that evaluated its effect on anxiety.
The study was planned as a block randomized controlled experimental study. In order to calculate the sample size needed in our study, a pilot study will be conducted and a priori power analysis will be made based on the results of this study. E-mobile application will be used as data collection tool. The research will be carried out with 2 groups as application (mobile application) and control (standard care).
The Vascular Access Unit (UAV) of the Lyon Sud Hospital Center is the first unit within a French public establishment where the Regional Health Agency (ARS) has authorized that medical procedures for the installation of central venous access be performed by nurses. The installation of CIP represents an anxiety-provoking step for the patient, because the gesture, which consists of inserting a box under the skin, connected to a catheter, placed in a deep vein, involves uncomfortable, even painful moments. In the UAV, the installation of this device is carried out in the operating room, without premedication and only under local anesthesia. Affected patients usually have a diagnosis of serious illness (oncology). Virtual Reality (VR) simulates the physical presence of the patient in an environment artificially generated by software. Many applications have already been evaluated in different health sectors, the investigators would like to show its interest in reducing patient anxiety during CIP placement under local anesthesia, without premedication. The medical device used is Lumeen. It is a Class I medical device software within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2017/745, CE marked. In the context of research, the Relaxation module is used. This module is the one intended for the management of anxiety and pain induced by medical procedures in adults and children over 6 years of age. It allows to perform immersions in 360° videos in real shots or computer-generated images, accompanied by natural sounds, relaxing music and a relaxation script recorded by hypnotherapists. The duration of an immersion can be adjusted according to the needs of the medical procedure..
In an attempt to increase timely and accessible psychological treatment for depression and anxiety, Internet-delivered Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (ICBT) has emerged. In ICBT, patients review treatment materials online and complete relevant exercises to learn cognitive behavioural strategies. They also commonly access brief therapist support through weekly emails or phone calls. Data analysis of ICBT offered via the Online Therapy Unit in Saskatchewan has found lower participation in ICBT among individuals from diverse (non-white/ Caucasian) ethnocultural backgrounds. Furthermore, feedback from participants has identified opportunities to improve ICBT by: 1) simplifying language to improve clarity; 2) adding audiovisual content to aid with learning ICBT strategies; and 3) adding in diverse examples/stories to show applicability of ICBT to individuals with diverse backgrounds. The purpose of this study is to evaluate an ICBT program that has been improved in this way, called the Culturally Enhanced Wellbeing Course. Specifically, the observational pilot study with 30 clients from diverse ethnocultural backgrounds aims to examine improvements in depression and anxiety from pre to post treatment as well as patient experiences with the Culturally Enhanced Wellbeing Course.
The Smart Supplement has 20 vitamins and minerals that have strong track records of demonstrating positive health effects, both physiologically and cognitively. This twelve-week trial will examine the effectiveness and efficacy of Heights Smart Supplement on both biomarkers and subjective experiences from participants.
The current study aims to assess the acceptability and feasibility of an adapted version of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Treatment Seeking (CBT-TS) for use with signing Deaf adults. This is a Stage 1A intervention refinement study consisting of a single-arm open pilot trial. Thirty Deaf adults with clinically significant symptoms of alcohol use disorder (AUD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and/or insomnia, who are not currently engaged in treatment will be recruited from across the United States. All subjects will complete a baseline assessment of their behavioral health symptoms, perceptions towards treatment, and intent to seek treatment prior to engaging in the adapted CBT-TS intervention. The primary clinical outcome, assessed at one-month follow-up, will be whether subjects scheduled professional treatment. Secondary outcomes include changes in subjects' perceptions towards treatment, intentions to seek treatment, and symptom severity from baseline. During the one-month, follow-up assessment subjects will also complete a client satisfaction survey and open-ended questions to provide feedback about the CBT-TS intervention.
Social work is a stressful occupation with social workers at high risk of job-related stress and burnout. Mindfulness has been evidenced as a promising approach for improving: recovery from stress; behavioural responses to stress; and resilience. The main aim of the study is to examine the efficacy of a bespoke, innovative, 6-session Mindfulness Intervention for social workers (MBSWSC) in reducing social worker stress, feelings of burnout, anxiety, low mood and improving well-being. The study will also compare outcomes from the MBSWSC with a briefer, condensed 3 session mindfulness programme (MBSC).
