Filter by:The Professional Peer Resilience Initiative (PPRI) study is an observational study aimed at understanding how symptoms of traumatic stress and resilience evolve over time in the University of Minnesota (UMN) healthcare workforce during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The study is being conducted concurrently with a UMN peer support program called the MinnRAP program and will remotely administer quality of life and mental health surveys to healthcare workers before they start the MinnRAP program and throughout their participation in the program.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to determine the effect of two behavioral interventions: brief cognitive-behavioral therapy and crisis intervention therapy through telepsychiatry, over the level of perceived stress, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic in medical residents and medical staff at three hospitals in two cities of Honduras.
Due to the COVID-19 global health pandemic, many people are likely experiencing increased stress. The well-being of physicians in training may be significantly impacted by this pandemic. Meditation is a self-management strategy that can be utilized by anyone to assist with the management of stress. Meditation mobile applications, such as the "Calm" app, can be used to help manage stress, especially during this uncertain time. The investigators propose a prospective evaluation of perceived stress, anxiety, burnout and sleep disturbance in the house staff at Banner University Medical Center Phoenix, with the use of the mobile meditation app, "Calm." The investigatros additionally want to evaluate the feasibility of using the mobile app, including looking at adherence to use of the app and physician satisfaction with use of the app.
This research study is being conducted to understand if patients benefit from mobile health interventions while waiting for in-clinic mental health treatments, and to understand which patients receive the most benefit.
The purpose of this open label study is to evaluate longer term tolerability and early efficacy of transcranial ultrasound in the treatment of patients with refractory depression and anxiety.
Interesting in living liver donor transplantation have greatly increased because of inadequacy of cadaveric organs and the inability to supply the growing need for cadaveric transplantation. Surgical procedures applied to living liver donors do not only physically demand organs, but can also cause psychological burden. It has been reported that melatonin had antioxidant, antinociceptive, hypnotic, anticonvulsant, neuroprotective, anxiolytic, sedative and analgesic properties. It was shown to administration of exogenous melatonin has been increase sedation and decrease anxiety in the preoperative period compared to placebo. The aim of this study; To investigate preoperative and postoperative anxiety levels of CKV and to exam the relationship between anxiety levels and endogenous melatonin levels.
Bruxism is a common phenomenon. It is estimated that its prevalence in the adult population is 8-31%. Bruxism occurring during sleep is the activity of the masticatory muscles that appear during sleep, which can be rhythmic or phased and is not a movement disorder or sleep disorder in healthy people. It is currently believed that bruxism should not be considered a disorder. In healthy people, it is treated rather as behavior, which may be a risk factor for pathological clinical implications or a protective factor in the presence of other disease entities. The most common symptoms of bruxism include: pathological wear and tooth sensitivity, periodontal and oral mucosa damage, myalgia in the stomatognathic system, headache and prosthetic restoration damage. However, due to nocturnal occurrence, bruxism symptoms may go unnoticed for a long time, which means that patients are often unaware of this behavior. The etiology of bruxism is multifactorial and not fully understood. It is currently believed that it can be caused by genetic, psychological and exogenous factors. Due to the unclear etiology of bruxism, it is so important to conduct research that allows making a certain diagnosis and finding the causes of this phenomenon
The aim of the present study is to examine whether the nature based 'Wild man Programme' can help to increase quality of life among men on sick leave compared to treatment as usual. Additionally, the study examines which natural environments best work as supportive environments in the rehabilitation.
Noise in the ICU can worsen patient outcomes through factors such as increased cardiovascular stress, alteration in sleep, and increased discomfort or pain The purpose of this study is to determine the benefit of therapeutic music in the ICU on patients, their families, and ICU staff.
Brief summary The civil war in Syria has taken a severe toll on the Syrian population, with over 350 000 dead and more than 10 million Syrians forced to leave their home since 2011. The majority of the estimated 5.6 million Syrians who have left the country as refugees currently reside in Syria's neighboring countries (Turkey, Jordan and Lebanon), while about 1 million have fled to Europe. In the peak year of 2015, a little over 10500 Syrians applied for asylum in Norway and an estimated 26 000 lived in the country at the start of 2018 according to statistics from the Norwegian Directorate of Immigration. Being a refugee or resettled refugee is psychologically stressful and increases the risk of ill mental health. Prior research has demonstrated high to very high levels of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety in refugees compared to normal populations. As highlighted in prior review articles on the subject, there is a lack of studies on refugees originating from the Middle Eastern countries, and there is a need for future studies on refugee mental health to move beyond the focus on PTSD, depression and anxiety in order to capture the wider psychological consequences associated with being a refugee or resettled refugee. With the current number of displaced people globally approaching an unprecedented 70 million, including more than 25 million refugees, the need to understand and address the health challenges in this population is more pressing than ever. The present study, REFUGE-I, constitutes the first phase of a planned longitudinal cohort study (REFUGE-study) on health and quality of life among resettled Syrian refugees in Norway. The overarching aims of REFUGE-I are to recruit a representative sample of Syrian adults who are willing to participate in the longitudinal cohort study and to obtain baseline information on health-related topics as well as demographics for this recruited sample. REFUGE-I will use a cross-sectional survey design. The study population will be a random and representative sample of 10 000 Syrians over 18 years who arrived in Norway between 2015 and 2017, and who currently live and have a registered residential address in Norway. The sampled group will be contacted and informed about the study through postal mail. Information about the study will also be distributed through other channels: regular media (e.g. television and newspapers), social media (e.g. Facebook), District Medical Doctors/Public Health Officers, and a study web-page with more detailed information on the study including instructive animation videos in Arabic. Those consenting to participate will be asked to fill out and return a postal survey questionnaire on demographics and health-related topics focusing on: Symptoms of posttraumatic stress, anxiety and depression Quality of life Self-reported physical health (focusing on subjective pain) Sleep difficulties and alcohol consumption patterns Social support Potentially traumatic experiences before or during the flight from Syria Stress experienced after arrival in Norway (post-migratory stress) Participants will also be asked whether the research group can contact them again for the second and third phase of the longitudinal study, and informed that consent to participation entails consent that survey data will be linked to Norwegian registry data on education, work participation and sick-leave, drug prescriptions and utilization of the health-care system. The registry data will be linked to survey data in the later phases of the larger longitudinal study. The main objective of the REFUGE-I study is to obtain and publish a thorough cohort profile that includes descriptive statistics for the final sample on the above-listed health-related topics, as well as information and statistics on potential selection bias issues that might affect the generalizability of findings. The study is a collaborative effort between five research institutions and universities in Norway and Sweden. One of the collaborating partners, The Swedish Red Cross University College, has already conducted a similar study on 1215 resettled adult Syrian refugees in Sweden, and results from REFUGE-I will be compared to the findings from the Swedish study. Moreover, an important long-term goal for the larger REFUGE-study is to help advance research on refugees by making resources from the study available online, and through the creation of a large database containing pooled data from the REFUGE-study and studies done through the Swedish Red Cross University College and potentially other national and international research groups.
