Filter by:The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of aromatherapy on sleep quality and anxiety in patients undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.
The goal of this double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled parallel-group multicenter exploratory pilot study (three study arms) is to describe effects and safety of different doses of intranasal midazolam to treat acute anxiety in palliative care patients, while providing pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of 3-week mid-season camp period loading on sports injury anxiety level and physical performances of professional male soccer players.
This is a pilot randomised controlled trial to explore the acceptability and feasibility of laughter yoga about anxiety and depression reduction in children with ASD and parenting stress reduction for their parents. Hypotheses of this study include: 1. Laughter yoga is acceptable to children with ASD and their parents. 2. Laughter yoga is feasible for anxiety and depression reduction in children with ASD and parenting stress reduction in their parents. 3. Participants in the experimental group will have significantly more reduction in depression, anxiety and parental stress than those in the wait-list-control group.
Spinal cord injuries (SCI) have a devastating effect not only on individuals incurring the life changing event, but also on those who are involved in their care. Family care-partners of those with SCI (fcSCI) may experience significant negative effects including impaired mental health, high levels of burden, poor adjustment to role, decreased quality of life and strain on relationships. Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based treatment strategy that helps individuals recognize and challenge their unhelpful thoughts and behaviours that contribute to their mental health concerns. However, barriers such as availability to specialized care, costs, rural and remote location, or concerns about stigma may limit access to care. Internet delivered CBT (ICBT) has the potential to reach a much wider group of people that may have unequal access to health care. In a previous feasibility study, the team demonstrated the preliminary effectiveness of a tailored ICBT Wellbeing program for fcSCI. However, our understanding of which components of the program can result in optimal management is limited. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of different components of the Wellbeing program including: therapist guidance, peer support groups, and booster sessions on symptoms of depression among fcSCI. The team will evaluate which intervention components result in meaningful improvement in symptoms of depression. Through collaborations with SCI community organizations and rehabilitation institutions, participants will be recruited across Canada. The researchers will also develop a model to examine the most cost-effective intervention package from the different components. The Wellbeing for fcSCI program can provide personalized service to individuals while being flexible and easily accessible, improving overall wellbeing and access to health care services.
Office hysteroscopy is an invaluable practice to treat a myriad of gynecological processes. However, a limiting factor is the perceived pain and anxiety. In a randomized pilot study, treatment with lavender aromatherapy will significantly decrease the stress/anxiety levels associated with office hysteroscopy, as measured on a visual analogue scale and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire when compared to control subjects receiving distilled water placebo.
The overall aim of this project is to evaluate the effectiveness of two school-based programs that have the potential to promote adolescent sleep and prevent future depressive symptoms. The programs will be offered to students aged 13-19 at Swedish high schools and upper secondary schools at the classroom level. The students will be compared to teaching as usual (control group).
This research will be conducted to determine the effect of stress ball intervention during NST on anxiety and fetal well-being in high-risk pregnant women. Women with high-risk pregnancies randomly assigned to intervention (n=43) and control (n=43) groups at a state and a faculty hospital in Turkey will be included in the study. Pregnant women in the intervention group will be told to squeeze and release the ball once after counting to three, to inhale each time they press the ball, to exhale when they relax their grip and to focus only on the ball. Pregnant women will be instructed to continue this practice throughout the NST procedure (approximately 20 minutes). Pregnant women in the control group will not receive any intervention other than routine hospital care during the NST procedure. Data on anxiety and fetal well-being outcomes will be collected before and after NST.
The clinical trial aims to conduct a feasibility, acceptability, and usability clinical trial of a modular CBT-based and technologically enhanced intervention for people with an SUD and recently enrolled in IOP, probe target engagement and change in clinical outcomes, and examine attrition rates in IOP. This study will enroll 40 adults who are currently enrolled in IOP, have a substance use disorder, and experience elevated anxiety. 20 individuals will be randomized to the experimental intervention, "Intervention for Managing Physical Reactions to Overwhelming Emotions" (IMPROVE), and 20 individuals will be randomized to the active control group, "Physical Health Education Treatment" (PHET). Participants will be asked to complete a baseline assessment of mood, substance use, and psychophysiology. Participants will then completed ecological momentary assessments (EMA) via smartphone technology 4 times a day for ~ 28 days (the day following the baseline assessment until the 3rd intervention session). Participants will complete one 45 minute - 1 hour intervention each week for 3 weeks (either the IMPROVE or PHET intervention, pending randomization). Following the last intervention session, participants will return to the lab to complete a post-intervention assessment that mirrors the baseline assessment and then complete follow-up surveys 1- and 3-months post intervention.
This study is a randomized factorial trial designed to evaluate unguided (i.e., purely self-help), transdiagnostic internet delivered cognitive behaviour therapy tailored for public safety personnel with tunneled of personalized course delivery and with or without the incorporation of social learning resources.
