Filter by:The hospitalization of a patient in intensive care is a traumatic experience for his family members. With the current COVID-19 epidemic, in view of the high risk of contamination, drastic measures to limit the transmission are necessary, with the creation of spaces dedicated to the care of Covid+ patients, and family are not allowed to visit. At the Strasbourg University Hospital, visits were prohibited from the start of the epidemic. Information concerning the patient's state of health is therefore delivered to families by telephone, on call by the healthcare team only, every day before 6 p.m. or in the event of a serious event at any time. The primary purpose of this project is to assess the psychological impact of the hospitalization of a loved one in intensive care for Covid-19 infection at 3 months post-hospitalization, in a context of pandemic with ban on visits.
In our study; Anxiety and depression levels, socio-demographic characteristics of the pregnant women who were admitted to our hospital between 25.04.2020-25.07.2020 and treated with the diagnosis of covid 19, and the change in anxiety and depression levelsWİTH Beck Depression and Anxiety Score after the disease regressed are planned. (Beck depression scale contains 10 questions and a total of 1 to 100 points is obtained. High score indicates that depression and anxiety are high.) 0-16 points = mild depressive symptoms 17-29 points = moderate depressive symptoms 30-63 points = severe depressive symptoms
Background: Researchers think that people s mental health and behavior will be very affected by the steps taken to slow the spread of COVID-19, such as social distancing. Also, the threat of disease and death, to people and their loved ones, can cause much stress. Researchers want to learn more about these stressors and how they are affecting people. Objective: To study the relationship of affective, cognitive, and behavioral responses to stressors related to COVID-19 with neuroimaging and behavioral data collected before COVID-19. Eligibility: English-speaking adults age 18 and older Design: This online study will include both new participants and those who have taken part in past National Institute of Mental Health studies. All will complete the same surveys and tasks. Participants will give their name and email address. They will get a username and password. The file that links their username to their personal data will be kept secure. Participants will complete a set of surveys about the following: - Sociodemographic data, such age, race, and income - Education and work status - Mental and medical illness and treatment - Family medical history - Mood - COVID-19 experience - Anxiety - Substance and alcohol use - Attention control - Other mental health related topics. Participants will complete a finger-tapping task. For this, they will press a key a certain number of times in a limited period. They will get to practice the task. After the task, they will complete a survey about it. It will take about 1 hour to complete the surveys and the task. About 8 months later, participants will be contacted to repeat the surveys and task. Compensation is provided.
This study seeks to investigate the levels of parental stress across different demographic subgroups in the general parental population during the strict social distancing government-initiated non-pharmacological interventions (NPI's) related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The study also seeks to examine the predictors of parental stress rates related to these non-pharmacological interventions (NPI's). In addition, the research will investigate the association between parental stress associated and psychopathology symptoms (i.e., depression and generalized anxiety). The aim of the project is to: - Inform the policymakers, the general public, scientists, and health practitioners about the psychological associations of the COVID-19-related government-initiated measures on parental stress, with special focus on the school and kindergarten lockdowns. - Provide a foundation for policymakers and health-care professionals to employ interventions that protect families against possibly increased psychological stressors. - Help policymakers and healthcare professionals to better understand the association of demographic variables and other predictors on parental stress and parent-child dysfunction, which information necessary for evaluating the psychological impact of NPIs on parental stress and thus the framework under which decisions about school/kindergarten lockdowns are made.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. The Danish Lung Association estimates that 320,000 Danes live with COPD, of which approximately 50,000 with severe COPD. In 2017, records showed that 23,979 admissions in Denmark were related to COPD; of these patients, about 20% were readmitted 2-30 days after discharge. The main symptom is dyspnea, which is often accompanied by anxiety. Primary treatment is; oxygen, bronchiolitis, prednisolone, morfin, NIV, and anxiolytics. Researchers at Hvidovre Hospital have developed an oxygen robot that continuously monitors the patient's SaO2 (oxygen saturation) and automatically administrates the oxygen depending on it. The preliminary results show that patients with robot-administrated oxygen were within defined SaO2 range in 85.7% of the time versus 46.6% when oxygen was nurse-administrated. The research was conducted as a multicentre Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT)focusing on physiological end-points. There is a lack of knowledge about the patient perspective of treatment with the oxygen robot. The purpose of this study is: 1. To examine the association between robot-administered oxygen and patients' perception of dyspnoea, including the emotional response in the form of anxiety and depression The perspective is to be able to provide a holistic response to whether robot administered oxygen can be a better method of treating and alleviating dyspnoea.
The aim of this study is to investigate the levels of trauma and mental symptoms (i.e., depression and anxiety) among health workers and public service providers during the strict social distancing government-initiated non-pharmacological interventions (NPI's) related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The study also aims to investigate predictors of trauma-symptoms.

This interventional study will investigate the effect of daily use of a mindfulness app on measures of participant anxiety, well-being, and future outlook during the Covid-19 pandemic, by comparing pre-intervention survey responses to post-intervention survey responses.
The Positive Affect Regulation sKills (PARK) Course is an online program containing a series of positive emotion skills for individuals experiencing stress and distress as a result of COVID-19 and the return to "normal." The study specifically targets positive emotion, and offers an array of skills in a self-guided online delivery platform, making the program accessible and convenient in confusing and stressful times. Our main aims are: Aim 1: To explore the effects of PARK on anxiety, depression, feelings of social isolation, positive affect, and a sense of meaning and purpose. Aim 2: To test whether age or gender moderate the effects of the program.
In this protocol, we seek to examine the role of popular messaging platform WhatsApp in information spread during a crisis. As there have been few global crises in the last decade (coinciding with the rise of social media), the role of private messaging platforms such as WhatsApp during crisis contexts remains understudied. During the current COVID-19 global health crisis, we undertook this study to: (1) characterize the nature of WhatsApp use during crises, (2) characterize the profiles of WhatsApp users (3) understand how WhatsApp usage links to well-being (fear and thoughts about COVID-19).
