The trial is a pilot-randomized trial testing feasibility and limited-efficacy of delivering social engagement using technologic strategies to reduce periods of social isolation.
One important part of individual nursing care is that that nurses teach and apply breathing exercises, which are vital and increase the patient's quality of life, in the light of their current knowledge and skills. The purpose of this study was therefore to determine the effect of postoperative breathing exercises on pain and anxiety in patients hospitalized in the general surgery clinic and who had undergone laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Mental health concerns are a large burden for individuals, healthcare systems, and the economy. Over a million people are referred to UK mental health services each year, but more than half only receive one session of workbook-based support. Many others have to wait over 12 weeks for assessment and treatment. Wysa is a digital health app with over 3 million users that uses an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot and a series of self-care exercises to provide mental health support and to help people develop strategies to manage their mental health and improve their resilience. This project aims to examine the impact of using Wysa on patients' symptoms of anxiety and depression during the referral process for standard UK mental health services. Patients will be given access to Wysa at the point of referral to the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme and can begin to explore the self-support tools, while they are on the waitlist for assessment and treatment. The investigators will gather a group of patients and members of the public to contribute to the recruitment of patients for the study, the methods we use to evaluate Wysa, and to provide insights on how best to share the results of our study with the general public. The investigators will use the standard IAPT measures of anxiety and depression to look at the effect of using Wysa patients' mental well-being. These questionnaires will be provided through the app and the results will be compared with a waitlist control group. The investigators will examine whether Wysa can identify people who are experiencing severe mental health difficulties so that they can be provided with additional support. Users' levels of engagement with Wysa will be assessed and some participants will be randomly selected to do an interview so the investigators can get a better understanding of what people liked and disliked about using the app and why. Finally, the investigators will be evaluating the cost-effectiveness of Wysa compared with usual care. The investigators expect that the study will show that Wysa helps reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression in people who are on the waiting list for IAPT. If the study shows this positive impact, this will provide evidence to support the use of Wysa to improve the accessibility of mental health support in clinical pathways. The investigators will be publishing the results of our study in academic journals as well as in more generally accessible platforms.
The study was planned as a block randomized controlled experimental study. In order to calculate the sample size needed in our study, a pilot study will be conducted and a priori power analysis will be made based on the results of this study. E-mobile application will be used as data collection tool. The research will be carried out with 2 groups as application (mobile application) and control (standard care).

The Vascular Access Unit (UAV) of the Lyon Sud Hospital Center is the first unit within a French public establishment where the Regional Health Agency (ARS) has authorized that medical procedures for the installation of central venous access be performed by nurses. The installation of CIP represents an anxiety-provoking step for the patient, because the gesture, which consists of inserting a box under the skin, connected to a catheter, placed in a deep vein, involves uncomfortable, even painful moments. In the UAV, the installation of this device is carried out in the operating room, without premedication and only under local anesthesia. Affected patients usually have a diagnosis of serious illness (oncology). Virtual Reality (VR) simulates the physical presence of the patient in an environment artificially generated by software. Many applications have already been evaluated in different health sectors, the investigators would like to show its interest in reducing patient anxiety during CIP placement under local anesthesia, without premedication. The medical device used is Lumeen. It is a Class I medical device software within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2017/745, CE marked. In the context of research, the Relaxation module is used. This module is the one intended for the management of anxiety and pain induced by medical procedures in adults and children over 6 years of age. It allows to perform immersions in 360° videos in real shots or computer-generated images, accompanied by natural sounds, relaxing music and a relaxation script recorded by hypnotherapists. The duration of an immersion can be adjusted according to the needs of the medical procedure..
