Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to conduct a randomized controlled trial to enhance the capacity of pediatric primary care providers to assist their patients who struggle with anxiety. The study aims to refine and assess the feasibility of the Anxiety Action Plan (AxAP), a brief intervention to reduce pediatric anxiety, delivered by primary care providers (PCPs) in community pediatric primary care clinics. The goal of the AxAP is to enhance the capacity of PCPs to identify and intervene with anxious youth, which will enhance access to care in general and especially in locations with few mental health specialists. PCPs participating in this study will attend a training, administer the intervention to enrolled youth assigned to the MAPP condition, participate in coaching sessions, and fill out study questionnaires. Families participating in this study will complete evaluations with the study team, receive the intervention from their PCP (if assigned to the MAPP condition), and fill out study questionnaires. Researchers will compare the MAPP intervention to Enhanced Usual Care (EUC; consisting of videos, handouts, and other resources for anxiety reduction) to see the differences, if any, in child outcomes.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of melatonin, diazepam, and placebo on the level of anxiety in patients undergoing surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is melatonin effective in reducing the anxiety of patients undergoing surgery? Participants will be asked to answer a questionnaire then they will receive either melatonin, diazepam, or placebo, and then after an hour, they will answer the same questionnaire again. Researchers will compare melatonin, diazepam, and placebo to see if melatonin is as effective in reducing the level of anxiety as diazepam in patients undergoing surgery.
The aim of the current study is to explore whether culturally adapted internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy is effective in reducing the symptoms of various common mental health problems among Arabic-speaking refugee and migrant youth. We hypothesize that the symptoms of the psychological problems will significantly be reduced among youth who will receive iCBT compared to youth in the control group.
Specific aims - To test the effects of a relaxation and guided imagery intervention with socioemotional learning content on a range of socioemotional, physiological, cognitive and academic outcomes of school-aged children, measured through self-reports, neuropsychological and physiological measures, as well as teachers and parent's reports.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare a novel sound healing approach, biofield tuning, to a waitlist control group in a healthy adult population naive to the intervention. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is there a significant reduction in state and trait anxiety as measured by the State-Trait Anxiety Index (STAI) with biofield tuning compared to waitlist control? - Are there significant reductions in negative affect, as well as increases in self-compassion, positive affect, and interoceptive awareness in the intervention group? - What are the relationships between changes in anxiety symptoms, negative affect words, and microbiome changes in participants who have undergone this biofield intervention? Participants will be: - Randomized to intervention/control - Recieve 5 sound healing interventions weekly - Asked to complete surveys and audio prompts throughout the intervention - Asked to provide a microbiome sample pre- and post-intervention
In Hong Kong, the shortage of mental health professionals has been a public health concern for many decades. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends self-care intervention as one of the most promising and exciting new approaches to improve health and well-being. Rapid development in digital technologies is making population-based self-care interventions possible. The goal of this pilot randomised controlled trial is to provide brief advice of a list of mental health mobile apps for reducing depressive symptoms and anxiety in adults. Participants will be instructed to use three mobile apps for 10 min each day for 30 days. They have freedom to choose which one app to use, or a mix of two or three apps. The Waitlist control group will not receive treatment from the research team during the assessment period. But they will be notified their evaluation results (mild to moderate depression) after they complete the baseline assessment. They will receive the information about mental health hotline services for general public. The hypothesis is that the interventions show preliminary effectiveness in reducing adults' depressive and/or anxiety symptoms.
Open-label, randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of preoperative acupuncture on preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain for high-anxiety patients undergoing total hip or knee arthroplasty. The hypothesis is that preoperative acupuncture will reduce preoperative anxiety, reduce postoperative pain, reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting, reduce opioid consumption, and improve patient satisfaction.
Dexmedetomidine is a drug known for its pain-relieving and restlessness-reducing effects. The purpose of this run is to use the association between this use during surgery and the attrition of post-operative pain and discomfort. In the research, laboratory and monitoring results will be obtained before, during and after the operation. Postoperative patient complaints will be evaluated at the postoperative service visit. This study is decided on a completely voluntary basis.
Substantial evidence supports the effect of mindfulness practices on improving health outcomes. Zentangle is a mindfulness-based art therapy (MBAT) that combines art-making and meditation using simple materials. The goal of this pilot randomized controlled trial is to assess the effectiveness of mindfulness-based Zentangle interventions for reducing depression and anxiety symptoms in parents with mild to moderate depression or anxiety. Participants will be instructed to attain the Zentangle courses, a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT) will deliver two 2-hour weekly group sessions. After completing the assessments, the waitlist control group will receive the same training sessions. The hypothesis is that the intervention group will show more significant decreases in depressive and anxiety symptoms, well-being improvement, less stress and better quality of life than the control group.
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the impact of the Communities Organizing for Power through Empathy (COPE) intervention in adults in communities having recently experienced or at risk of experiencing disaster. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How does the COPE intervention affect individual mental health? - How does the COPE intervention affect protective factors like coping and social support? - How does the COPE intervention affect community resilience? - How does delivery of the COPE intervention in partnership with a broad-based organization affect participant recruitment and retention, as well as outcomes? Participants will participate in the three session COPE intervention. Researchers will compare individuals who participate in the COPE intervention to individuals who participate in house meetings to see if the COPE intervention improves mental health, coping, social support and community resilience. Researchers will also examine factors that affect implementation and intervention delivery.
