Filter by:Purpose: Chemotherapy treatment is a very different and difficult process. Considering the many physiological and psychological problems that patients experience during and after the treatment process, chemotherapy symptoms and psychological problems affect the quality of life of patients. Along with the burden of the disease, patients who experience physiological problems during chemotherapy may experience depression, stress, and anxiety. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effect of music played during chemotherapy on depression, anxiety, stress levels, and chemotherapy symptoms. Method: This study was conducted in a randomized controlled manner with a pretest-posttest control group random design model. The study population consisted of patients receiving treatment in the outpatient chemotherapy unit of Maltepe University Faculty of Medicine Hospital. The study sample consisted of 49 patients who met the inclusion criteria. The power analysis determined that the sample number was 42 people in total, 21 in the experimental group and 21 in the control group. However, considering the data losses, it was decided that the number would be 25 experimental and 25 control. When one patient from the experimental group did not want to continue, the study was completed with 49 patients, 24 in the experimental group and 25 in the control group. The music recital will be applied 4 times in total, once a week, until the patients complete 1 cycle, i.e. 4 sessions. Patients in the experimental group were administered the Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale (DASS -42) and Edmonton Symptom Diagnostic Scale (ESDS) before each session until the completion of one cycle, and music was played for 20-25 minutes during chemotherapy. After chemotherapy, the scales were applied again. In the control group, the scales were applied before chemotherapy treatment, no intervention was made during chemotherapy and the scales were applied again after chemotherapy.
Anxiety is a mood that focuses on the future, related to being prepared for possible upcoming negative events (fear, pain or danger), and unlike fear, its object is not determined or recognized, and it is exposed to uncertainty. Art therapy is used in the clinical and rehabilitation field as a useful tool for self-expression, healing and well-being. The close relationship between art, healing and well-being, and the therapeutic power of art has long been accepted all over the world.Many studies have been conducted in the literature examining the effect of mandala painting on reducing anxiety.This proposed project was planned to be carried out as a quasi-experimental study, based on the idea that mandala painting can reduce the level of anxiety in students and have a positive effect on the quality of life.
Anxiety is one of the most significant obstacles to academic success. When stress is interpreted negatively or becomes overwhelming, it causes anxiety before and during examinations, which in turn impacts students' academic performance. The difficulty in managing severely associated anxiousness enhances the demand for NIBS. It is a unique approach that has the potential to alleviate anxiety by modifying cortical excitability whereas Relaxation breaks the vicious cycle of pain caused by muscular stress, circulatory illness, and metabolic by-products alterations. The main purpose is to evaluate whether tDCS along with Relaxation technique reduces the anxiety level in competitive exam students. Total 46 students are recruited and randomly allocating in experimental and control group. The subjects in the experimental group are going to receive 9 tDCS sessions (2mA, anode placed on the DLFPC of left side and cathode on right supraorbital cortex for 20 min) along with relaxation technique. Subjects in the control group are going to receive 9 sessions of relaxation. The CSAI-2R scale is used as an Outcome Measure. Samples completed the CSAI-2R scale before and following the intervention. The data will be analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software.
The goal of this type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation trial is to test a family strengthening (FS) model delivered through multiple family groups (MFG) combined with a virtual peer mentoring program called TeenAge Health Consultants (Virtual TAHC) aimed at addressing emotional and behavioral problems among youth born in the U.S. to parents resettled as refugees. The specific aims of the study are: Aim 1: To systematically adapt an evidence-based family strengthening (FS) model delivered through multiple family groups (MFG) combined with a peer mentoring program (Virtual TAHC) (Goal 1). Aim 2: To assess preliminary short- and long-term impact of the combination intervention (MFG + Virtual TAHC) on behavioral emotional disorders (aggressive behavior, antisocial behaviors, anxiety, depression, and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder [PTSD]) related to intergenerational trauma among SGRC in the trial (Goal 2). Aim 3: Utilizing mixed methods and applying the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, Sustainment (EPIS) framework, examine implementation strategies, facilitators, and barriers of the RRF4H intervention (Goal 3). Participants will receive: 1. Family strengthening intervention delivered through multiple family groups (MFG) where children and one of their biological parents will participate in 16 weekly group sessions to discuss common problems and how to address them. 2. The youth in the intervention will participate in a peer mentorship program called TeenAge Health Consultants (TAHC) consisting of 16 weekly virtual sessions where they interact with other youth to learn about important topics including how to deal with conflict, stay out of trouble, deal with stress, avoid drugs and other topics. Researchers will compare the intervention group to a control group that will receive the usual care to see if the intervention group shows improvement in symptoms compared to the usual care group.
This intervention study will investigate the effects of music therapy on procedural distress, the overall experience of pain, anxiety, and stress, during the procedure of sitting up in a chair for patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU).
This pilot study will individually randomize 105 adolescents living with HIV 1:1:1 to standard of care, adapted intervention, or enhanced intervention. The intervention is called the Friendship Bench Intervention is a counseling intervention for depression and engagement in HIV care.
This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) as a non-pharmacological tool against anxiety and pain during elective procedures in the catheterization laboratory (cathlab). To assess the effectiveness of VR in the clinical setting of daily practice within the cathlab, a comparative effectiveness trial will be conducted. A sample of patients scheduled for a planned procedure in the cathlab of UZ Brussel will be selected using convenience sampling. Participants eligible for this study will be assigned to either the control group or the intervention group after signing the informed consent form. The control group in this study will receive standard care according to current practice for the planned procedure, while the intervention group will receive standard care along with the virtual reality headset intervention. The primary outcome of anxiety will be measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for anxiety and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) questionnaire. The secondary outcome of pain will be measured using the VAS scale for pain. Other outcomes such as satisfaction and potential nausea during the procedure will be assessed through a questionnaire that participants will fill out after the procedure. The physician who performed the procedure in the intervention group, as well as the involved nurses during the procedure, will complete a similar questionnaire to evaluate the use of the VR headset from the operators' perspective. The outcomes of the two groups will be statistically compared using the SPSS software package.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of a mobile app-based mindfulness program in improving the mental well-being of caregivers with a child diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who live in rural areas of Maine. The primary question the investigators aim to answer is whether this mindfulness intervention can reduce stress and anxiety in these rural caregivers of children with ASD. Participants in the trial will engage in a 30-day mindfulness program that they can complete over a maximum of 60 days. During this time, they will practice short daily mindfulness lessons and respond to a set of brief questions regarding their anxiety levels. Ultimately, the investigators want to assess whether this intervention helps these caregivers feel less stressed and anxious.
