Filter by:The main objective is to update the diagnostic assessment of frailty by correlating several variables with the ultrasound image of the frail elderly patient. Secondarily, the investigators intend to collect and analyze data on functional capacity and quality of life variables on the evolution of musculoskeletal symptoms, as well as on pain and psychological variables. Similarly, it is intended to make a record of different profiles and subtypes of frail older adult patients to be stored in Big Data in order to establish therapeutic intervention plans that allow both the evaluation and treatment of patients.
This study was planned to determine nursing students' attitudes towards artificial intelligence and test anxiety levels after using ChatGPT and Google Bard in their education. The study will be carried out in accordance with the research feature of quasi-experimental, pretest-posttest, with 3rd and 4th year nursing students studying at Sinop University Faculty of Health Sciences in the 2023-2024 fall academic year. The research groups are named as follows; Experimental Group: The group that will receive ChatGPT and Google Bard training, Control Group: The group that will not receive ChatGPT and Google Bard training, in other words, the 3rd year students of the nursing department will be referred to as the control group, and the 4th year students will be the experimental group. Educational content; ChatGPT and Google Bard training for senior students of the Faculty of Health Sciences who volunteered to participate in the study was provided by Dr. Lecturer It will be given by member Yasemin Özyer Güvener. After the training is completed, students will be asked to use generative artificial intelligence for educational purposes. During the posttest implementation of the study (one week before the final exams), data collection tools will be applied again to students who continue to volunteer to participate in the research. Key words: nursing students, test anxiety, generative artificial intelligence, ChatGPT, Google Bard
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a universal, digital, single-session intervention for youth mental health, functioning, and well-being, when implemented with Ukrainian children and adolescents. The intervention teaches well-established procedures that research has shown to be effective in helping American children calm themselves and regulate emotions, including slowed breathing and peaceful mental imagery. The intervention has not been tested previously with Ukrainian students. Participants will be provided access to this brief online program as part of the school curriculum. Students will be randomly assigned to receive the digital program either immediately or after 2 months. This 2-month lag will allow for evaluating the effectiveness of Project Calm in improving students' mental health, well-being, and self-calming skills. This will also allow for evaluating the effectiveness of such an intervention for war-exposed youths for whom these interventions may be especially helpful given the gap between these children's needs for mental health services and the very limited availability of clinicians
The purpose of the study is to determine whether a daily prebiotic fibre blend can reduce systemic inflammation, dyslipidemia, and self-report measures of mental health in individuals with metabolic syndrome. This study will help shape a larger randomised controlled study (RCT) powered to assess efficacy in a bigger cohort of patients. Primary outcome measures will explore the efficacy of a prebiotic fibre blend on systemic inflammation. Secondary and exploratory outcomes measures will explore the efficacy of the prebiotic blend on clinical biomarkers associated with cardiometabolic risk factors, microbiota features, and mental health. Using these data, we will also estimate in-year savings for the NHS in the metabolic syndrome population on a per participant basis.
Introduction Patients undergoing invasive coronary angiography experience anxiety due to various factors. This can lead to physiological and psychological complications, compromising patient comfort and overall procedural outcomes. Benzodiazepines are commonly used to reduce periprocedural anxiety, although the effect is modest. VR is an promising nonpharmacological intervention that can be used to reduce anxiety in patients undergoing an invasive coronary angiography. Methods and analysis A single-center open-label randomized controlled trial was performed to assess the effectiveness of add-on VR therapy on anxiety in 100 patients undergoing invasive coronary angiography and experiencing anxiety in periprocedural setting. The primary outcome is the NRS anxiety score measured just before obtaining arterial access. Secondary outcomes are physiological measures of anxiety and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Perceived Stress Scale, and IGroup presence questionnaire. The NRS anxiety level and physiological measurements will be taken at five scheduled times between pre procedural, peri and post procedural. The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and Perceived Stress Scale will be performed prior to coronary angiography and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (state form) and the IGroup Presence questionnaire will be performed post-intervention.
This study aims to: Assess the effect of virtual reality and modified progressive muscle relaxation distraction techniques on anxiety, attention and getting distracted from the external environment among cardiac care unit patients. Research hypotheses: H1: Patients who receive VR intervention have lower Hamilton Anxiety Rating (HAM-A) scores than those who receive modified PMR intervention. H2: Patients who receive VR intervention exhibit improvement in their physiological parameters than those who receive modified PMR intervention. H3: Patients who receive VR intervention have lower Attention/Distraction scores than those who receive modified PMR intervention.
This is a pilot, two-arm, randomized, blinded, placebo-controlled cross-over clinical trial to study the safety and effect of 14 days of kava on anxiety and physiologic stress in survivors of cancer and its treatment. Participants will be randomized to take either kava first or placebo first. Kava 75 mg or placebo will be taken three time daily (TID) for 14 days (Period 1), followed by a washout period of 14-28 days. Thereafter, the participant will take either placebo or kava TID for 14 days (Period 2), whichever he/she did not take in Period 1.
This SBIR Phase I proposal will develop and test the acceptability and feasibility of a new suite of digital Single-Session Interventions, specifically applying Unified Protocol core principles for emotional disorders, to produce a highly accessible, engaging, and scalable product to help address the clinical needs of youth.
Objectives: Over the past decade in Sweden, a novel approach to primary healthcare units, known as first-line mental health (FLMH), has been introduced to enhance mental health services for children and adolescents. Through a structured and collaborative method involving experts, clinicians, and patients, a trans-diagnostic psychological intervention for anxiety was formulated based on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), designed to align with the FLMH care framework. This study seeks to assess the efficacy of the CBT intervention "Step-by-Step" in a randomised, single-blind, parallel-group, multisite non-inferiority trial. The objective is to investigate whether this treatment is not less effective than the evidence-based Cool Kids program. Rationale for the Study: Childhood anxiety is prevalent and linked to suffering and impairment across various life domains. While cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) is a proven treatment for anxiety disorders in children, there is a pressing need to enhance access to such interventions. Introducing CBT for childhood anxiety within primary care settings offers an avenue for early and readily available treatment. However, a gap exists in the availability of CBT interventions specifically designed for and assessed within primary care contexts.
In our research, it was aimed to determine the effect of nursing interventions applied face to face at the time of discharge and then via tele-nursing method to the caregivers of patients in intensive care and diagnosed with stroke, on the quality of life, care burden, hopelessness, anxiety and depression levels of the caregivers. This research will be conducted as a randomized, pre-test, post-test single group intervention study, at the Neurology Intensive Care Unit of Sakarya University Training and Research Hospital, between March and June 2023. With a 95% confidence interval, 5% margin of error, 0.54 effect size and 95% representativeness of the population, the group was calculated as 47 people, and the sample was determined as 56 people in total, with 20% reserve. The sample of the study will be selected by simple random sampling method among the caregivers of stroke patients who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the research. During the discharge process, Information Forms, Zarit Caregiving Burden Scale, Beck Hopelessness Scale, Adult Caregiver Quality of Life Survey, and Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale will be administered face to face to the participants as a pre-test. 12 weeks after the first measurement, Zarit Caregiving Burden Scale, Beck Hopelessness Scale, Adult Caregiver Quality of Life Questionnaire, Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale will be administered as posttest. In addition to routine discharge training, participants will be provided with 'Education and Care Practices for Stroke Patients'. These applications; It will be performed for those who care for stroke patients in the hospital for a week, and then at home, twice a week, for a total of 7 weeks, via telenursing method. Written consent will be obtained from caregivers after explaining the purpose of the research and the purpose for which the results will be used. Participants will be informed that their information will not be shared with others and the confidentiality policy will be adhered to. In order to make comparisons before and after the training, participants will be asked to fill out data collection forms with a nickname they can easily remember and not forget in the pre-test. They will be asked to write the same pseudonyms when filling out the post-test data collection forms. Participants will be asked to fill out data collection forms individually, but it will be stated that they can contact the researchers if they have questions.
