Spinal anaesthesia results in blockade of sympathetic efferent neurones. Patients with higher baseline sympathetic activation have been shown to have more marked hypotension after spinal anaesthesia. Anxiety causes generalized sympathetic activation. It was aimed to find the effect of preoperative anxiety on the duration and efficacy of neuraxial anaesthesia.
This study is a randomised control trial which aims to assess whether the use of an immersive virtual reality angiogram experience decreases peri-procedural anxiety in patients undergoing cardiac catheterisation.
Depression and anxiety are common and prevalent conditions that often go untreated. In an attempt to increase timely and accessible psychological treatment, Internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy (ICBT) has emerged. ICBT involves delivering therapeutic content via structured online lessons. This is often combined with therapist guidance, such as once per week contact via secure messaging or phone calls over several months. Over the past several years, the investigators have been studying the efficacy of ICBT for symptoms of depression and anxiety and found ~70% of patient's fully complete treatment and demonstrate large improvement in symptoms. Although outcomes of ICBT are very impressive, there is some room for improvement in terms of completion rates and outcomes. In this three-factorial randomized controlled trial, the investigators aim to contribute to the literature by examining whether the efficacy of ICBT in routine practice is moderated by amount of contact (once versus twice a week), inclusion of homework reflection questionnaire (yes vs no) and location of therapist (specialized unit vs community mental health clinic). Follow-up measures will be carried out at 3, 6 and 12 months after randomization. Primary outcomes are reduced anxiety and depression. Secondary outcomes include psychological distress, panic, social anxiety, trauma, health anxiety, quality of life, disability, intervention usage (e.g., completion rates, log-ins, emails sent), satisfaction, therapeutic alliance, and costs (e.g., health care utilization).
The aim of this mixed methods research is to conduct feasibility pilot testing of an existing mindfulness intervention called HEADS: UP. The intervention is designed to help people affected by stroke self-manage symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Evaluate the feasibility of a six-week group drumming intervention on fatigue, anxiety, and cognitive impairment when compared to an attentional control for cancer patients who have undergone at least one treatment session of chemotherapy or radiation therapy.
This research hypothesizes that moderate physical activity in a "green environment" (e.g. a forest preserve path) has increased benefits on psychological measures (stress, anxiety, mood, depression, attention) and on physiological measures (Heart Rate Variability, Blood Glucose, Salivary Cortisol) when directly compared to activity in a "gray environment" (urban or suburban sidewalks). The study design is a randomized crossover design in which each subject is assigned randomly to a group which determines the order in which participants will walk in each location. Subjects will take three 50-minute walks per location in one week, with half of the subjects taking the urban walks first as per group assignment. Control data are collected on days when participants do not walk. Physiological data are taken during walks and control periods (heart rate, heart rate variation). Biomarker samples (saliva, dried blood spots) are taken on selected days. Psychological data are take before and after walks and control periods.
This small randomized pilot study will evaluate feasibility and preliminary outcomes of an audio-delivered mindfulness program to reduce psychological distress for mothers with an infant in neonatal intensive care, as compared with an active control condition.
Subjects with abnormal uterine bleeding and scheduled for dilatation and curettage (D&C) will be randomized to a multimedia-based education (MME group) or verbal information (Control group ) before (D&C). State-Trait Anxiety Inventory will be asked by the nursing staff before and after multimedia-based education or verbal information to all patients. Then the patients will undergo (D&C) at an office setting. The impact of MME on patient anxiety will be evaluated by statistical analysis.
The purpose of the study is to investigate whether an occupational therapy program could enhance mental health outcomes for veterans who SCUBA dive. SCUBA diving requires modified breathing techniques and has been found to provide calming effects to individuals who engage in this activity. Occupational therapy interventions such as mindfulness, journaling, and deep breathing techniques can also provide similar calming effects. Therefore, this study will explore whether occupational therapy can provide additional benefits to overall mental health of veterans who SCUBA dive.
