Filter by:Drug addiction is a public health problem, mainly youths are involved in the addiction and the major reason were due to peer pressure. Spiritual meditation is thought to foster a deeper sense of meaning, which creates new sources of positive reinforcement, increasing motivation for alternative behavior patterns, such as entering treatment or maintaining abstinence. Cluster Randomized Control Trial will be performed for 1-year period where mixed method study design will be performed. The major variables will be Anxiety and depression score, Happiness index, Quality of life, Rate of Relapse, Age, Gender, Occupation, Education, Income, Family Size, Family Income, Family support, Social status- High/Middle/Low, History of drug use self, Types of drugs, Duration of usage: Reason of drug use, how they have started, Amount of drugs, Frequency of use, Family history of drug use, Money spent on drugs per month. A modified validated Questionnaire will be used. CRCT will be done by CONSORT Guidelines. A total of 160 samples will be taken, (40 from each center, two were given Meditation intervention and 80 were given standard treatment as a control group) and 16 qualitative interviews will be taken (4 from each center). The intervention will be given for 3 months, for 6 days one hour per day Rajyoga meditation basic course will be provided, followed by a 1-hour daily spiritual lesson, Positive thinking and motivation classes will be provided to the intervention group, and in the control group standard treatment will be given. Follow-up will be done after 1 month of discharge from the rehabilitation centers. Ethical clearance will be taken from the Ethical Review Board (ERB) of the Nepal Health Research Council (NHRC). This study will be useful for developing policy and practice in rehabilitation centers to apply the technique of Rajyoga Meditation in relapse prevention.
This trial will assess the safety, feasibility, acceptability, usability and agreement with validated scales of an automated mood monitoring App (TrueBlue), in adult, perinatal participants (recruited between 12 weeks of pregnancy and 12 weeks post-partum), recruited across multiple sites in Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom (UK). An initial within-study pilot phase will assess key aspects of the study including recruitment rate, usability issues and a detailed understanding of any device related adverse events; prior to full recruitment of a total 125 participants over a total 14-month period.
In the management of patients with noncarious cervical lesions (NCCL), we observe that they frequently present signs of anxiety, traumatic brushing, bruxism or eating disorders. These multifactorial and interrelated etiologies make diagnosis and management difficult. Furthermore, in the literature, there is a lack of studies that evaluate the relationship between these risk factors and NCCL. A better understanding of the etiology and risk factors would help to optimize patient management and direct patients to the most appropriate therapies.
Men with prostate cancer and their family caregivers face many physical and emotional challenges from the cancer itself and its treatment(s), which often lead to high anxiety. The pandemic has highlighted the importance of protecting our physical and mental health, and the complex responsibilities that caregivers have in supporting their loved ones. To improve the health of men with prostate cancer and of their caregivers, the research team developed TEMPO: a self-directed Tailored, wEb-based, psychosocial and physical activity self-Management PrOgram. TEMPO was developed with men with prostate cancer and their caregivers over the past 8 years. It also combines the investigators' research conducted over the past decade on providing the best support to those affected by cancer. Because the cancer care workforce is already overstretched, the research team designed TEMPO to be used without guidance from a health care professional. TEMPO is one-of-a kind in its support of both patients and caregivers, and the integration of coping skills training on a wide range of cancer challenges along with a home-based exercise program. Patients and caregivers who have used TEMPO said they improved their communication, learned new skills to cope with both physical and emotional challenges of cancer, and increased their physical activity. The present project builds on this work to further evaluate the cost and impact of TEMPO on men's and caregivers' health. Men with prostate cancer and their caregivers will be assigned by chance to one of two groups a) TEMPO or b) monitor their anxiety for 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, patients' and caregivers' needing more support will be identified based on an assessment of their anxiety level. For those already using TEMPO and needing more support, non-health care professional guidance might be offered. All those in the monitoring group needing more support will now have access to TEMPO. All participants complete surveys to determine whether TEMPO led to improved health outcomes.
The aim of this research would be to determine the efficacy and effects of preoxygenation when performed by the patient (mask held by the patient). This is the concept of "self-preoxygenation".
This study tests a suite of single-session intervention (SSI) targeting risk factors for depression and eating disorders among adolescents and young adults. Youth ages 13-25 who screen positive for depression or anxiety as a part of routine care will be offered one of three digital SSIs. Participants will complete questionnaires before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, and 3-months after completing the intervention so that the study team can investigate if Project YES leads to reductions in depression, anxiety and eating disorder symptoms.
The goal of this clinical trial is to measure the effects of Group Cognitive Evolutionary Therapy on mental health, especially on depressive symptoms and anxiety. Participants will be allocated in one of two conditions: (1) Group Cognitive Evolutionary Therapy (intervention) or (2) Waitlist. The intervention will consist of two 8-hour sessions of Group Cognitive Therapy, in two consecutive days. The Group Cognitive Evolutionary Therapy group will be compared to the waitlist group to test the efficacy of the intervention.
The overall goal of this application is to assess feasibility and impact of a remotely delivered guided meditation practice called Yoga Nidra, for reducing or stopping use of Benzodiazepine Receptor Agonists (BZRAs) for insomnia and anxiety in a population of older adults recruited from within the Birmingham VA medical system.
The main cognitive complaint in brain-injured patients is often the everyday disorganization caused by Executive Function (EF) deficits. EF deficits are often seen in patients with psychiatric disorders i.e. depression or anxiety. In order to minimize everyday disorganization, effective EF interventions are required. Interventions using compensatory strategies have the potential to enable patients to minimize disabilities, minimize participation problems and to function more independently in daily life. A well-known evidence-based intervention that uses compensatory strategies is Goal Management Training (GMT), a training that has been found to alleviate depressive symptoms in a depressed population. GMT entails learning and applying an algorithm, in which a daily task is subdivided into multiple steps to handle executive difficulties of planning, and problem solving. To adopt the GMT strategy and ensure maximal profitability for patients, they have to learn to use the algorithm in different situations and tasks. Therefore, GMT is comprehensive, time-consuming and thus labour-intensive. Along with this, brain games become increasingly attractive as an (add-on) intervention, most notably in an effort to develop home-based personalized care. Until now, however, the rationale behind brain games is based on what can be considered the restorative approach (i.e. strengthening of executive problems) rather than practicing compensatory strategies, with little or no transfer to improvements in daily life functioning. This study therefore aims to assess the potential of a newly developed Brain Game, based on compensatory strategies, as an add-on to GMT to develop a shortened and partly self-paced GMT intervention. The primary objective of this study is to assess whether the use of a compensatory brain game supported GMT treatment could be of interest in people with EF deficits after ABI that also suffer from depression or anxiety, to improve goal achievement, their executive function performance during goal-related tasks, and their executive performance during an ecological valid shopping task. Also we assess whether psychological symptoms alleviate following the GMT intervention and at 6-weeks follow-up. The study will be a multiple-baseline across individuals single-case experimental design (SCED). The study population consists of brain-injured patients, between 18 and 75 years old that receive in-patient mental neuropsychiatric healthcare. Participants eligible for the study must have EF deficits due to (nonprogressive) Acquired Brain Injury (ABI), minumum time post-onset of 3 months and depressive or anxiety symptoms. EF deficits will be assessed by extensive neuropsychological examination. Participants will be recruited from an inpatient clinic. In the course of one and a half year four participants will be recruited.
INTRODUCTION: Currently, there is no scientific evidence about pain in the anesthetic blockage of the first finger according to the application method. However, clinical evidence has valued the use of carpule, due to the low pain it generates in the patient to the application of anesthetic. Most studies on anesthesia and pain, especially with the use of carpule and distracting methods, belong to the field of dentistry. OBJECTIVES: It is intended to determine the pain after an anesthetic block in H of Frost in the first finger with different application methods, such as syringe and carpule. As secondary objectives, it is intended to establish the difference in pain according to the sex and age of the patients. METHODOLOGY: Experimental, transverse and random clinical trial type analytical study, in which a sample of 200 individuals will be selected, 100 per group, which would require digital anesthesia of the first finger and that would fulfill the inclusion criteria. Result: after the completion of the study CONCLUSIONS: After the completion of the study
