NCT ID: NCT06356285 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Antimicrobial Resistance

Testing New Ways to Name Antimicrobial Resistance

Start date: April 10, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to investigate the public's views on antibiotics and the impact of different ways to name the potential consequences of antibiotics not working in the future. It is known that current ways to name this don't resonate well with the public, and the study team have worked with members of the public through focus groups and community workshops to develop new ways of describing this in a process of co-design. This study aims to test four different ways of presenting this potential crisis to the public, some of which are new communication strategies designed by the public themselves, to evaluate which are the most memorable and investigate the impact on behaviour change. Adults aged over 18, living in the United Kingdom, who have already signed up to a market panel research company will be eligible to participate in this study. Participants will be invited to complete a short online survey (this should take around five minutes), advertised to them by the market research panel they have already signed up to. This survey is completely anonymous, and contains some multiple-choice questions, and some that require a short free text response. At the start of the survey one of the four ways to name AMR will be presented to participants in the form of a poster. This study aims to result in an improved understanding regarding the general public's understanding of antibiotic use and investigate the impact of communication on behaviour change. The data from this study may be used to inform future public health campaigns on this topic and improve the use of antibiotics. This study will be conducted online using the Predictiv platform, an online platform built by the Behavioural Insights Team. The study is being run in collaboration between the Behavioural Insights Team and the Institute of Global Health Innovation at Imperial College London. Is it anticipated that the survey will open in April 2024 and be open until recruitment of 4000 participants is complete. This is expected to take 4-6 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT05570500 Completed - Knowledge Clinical Trials

Comparing the Effect of Online and Conventional Oral Health Education in Egypt

Start date: December 12, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to compare the results of online oral health education and conventional oral health education methods in terms of their effectiveness towards improving the knowledge and practice of oral hygiene in primary school children in Egypt. This study is done in two schools in Egypt, in 3rd and 4th grade respectfully. The classrooms in each grade will be randomly assigned to each of the two groups (online and conventional oral health education). A questionnaire that assesses knowledge and attitude towards self oral care will be administered by the primary investigator before and after the oral health education sessions. The pre and post questionnaires will be compared in terms of results to evaluate the effectiveness of both methods.

The study will investigate if a standard integration programme in combination with a social and health promoting intervention can increase health and well-being among refugee families and influence success with education and employment.

NCT ID: NCT04637412 Completed - Attitude to Health Clinical Trials

Perceived Effectiveness of Added Sugar Labels

Start date: November 13, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to develop a restaurant menu label to indicate foods and beverage items on restaurant menus that contain high amounts of added sugars and to test its perceived effectiveness.

NCT ID: NCT04373135 Completed - Covid-19 Clinical Trials

Understanding Community Considerations, Opinions, Values, Impacts, and Decisions for COVID-19

UC-COVID
Start date: May 8, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is affecting the way many people live their lives, including seeking medical care and maintaining good self-care to keep healthy. Additionally, in the event many people become critically ill at once, COVID-19 has the possibility of overwhelming hospitals to the point where they have to make decisions about how to determine who receives intensive care and life-support measures. Many hospitals as well as local or state governments have been working on policies to determine how to make these decisions. This study seeks to learn about how COVID-19 has affected the way patients and healthcare providers care for themselves and about their thoughts and concerns about policies that may "ration" life-support resources.

NCT ID: NCT03628885 Completed - Attitude to Health Clinical Trials

An Evaluation of Tailored Messages to Address Parental Questions About HPV Vaccination

Start date: September 11, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate mother's attitudes about vaccinating their 11-14 year old children against the human papillomavirus (HPV). Among mothers who do not plan to vaccinate their child, the investigators will assess the influence of brief videos tailored to mothers' questions and concerns. Mothers will be randomized to one of three arms: 1. General video message about vaccination; 2. General message plus a brief video addressing the mother's primary concern; or 3. General message plus videos address all of mother-indicated concerns. The outcome of interest is intention to vaccinate. Our hypothesis is that the tailored videos will lead to increased intention to vaccinate.

NCT ID: NCT03510585 Completed - Attitude to Health Clinical Trials

Mucociliary Clearance, Airway Inflammation and Nasal Symptoms in Urban Motorcycle-drivers

Start date: July 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Professionals working in polluted areas may present increased airways symptoms and dysfunction. Rhinopharyngeal retrograde clearance (RRC) has been used to improve mucus clearance in infants with bronchitis and bronchiolitis. Flushing the nasal cavity with saline (S) has been used to reduce nasal inflammation in rhinitis and sinupathies. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of RRC and RRC plus S (RRC+S) on the airways in professional motorcyclists. Twenty-four male motorcyclists (mean age 36 years) were randomly assigned to RRC or RRC+S. Subjects were assessed at baseline and 15 days after interventions for airways assessments by saccharin test, mucus contact angle, cellularity in nasal lavage and airways symptoms with the use of SNOT-20 questionnaire. Data were analyzed by nonparametric ANOVA for repeated measures with Bonferroni´s correction. A passive nitrogen dioxide monitoring system was used to assess the mean personal air pollution exposure along the study period (NO2). The association between NO2 and the airways outcomes was analyzed by Spearman correlation test. At baseline, the two groups were similar in clinical, demographics and working aspects. From them, 100% had airways symptoms complaints and 33% had nasal MCC impairment. After treatments, both groups presented improvements in airways symptoms and nasal MCC. However, increased number of macrophages and ciliated cells were observed in nasal lavage of both groups. No associations between nitrogen dioxide and the outcome variables were detected. Rhinopharyngeal retrograde clearance seems to be useful in the clinical management of the upper airways symptoms and dysfunction in adults.

NCT ID: NCT02682043 Completed - Children Clinical Trials

Parental Perspectives of Using Toy Cars on Social Interactions of Preschool Children With Mobility Impairments

Start date: February 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate parental attitudes towards their child who has a mobility impairment, to using a modified electric toy car, and to evaluate from their perspective, if it facilitated social interaction for their child with mobility impairment.

NCT ID: NCT02615821 Completed - Exercise Clinical Trials

Mental Contrasting Physical Activity Study

Start date: January 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Given the numerous physical and psychological benefits of engaging in regular physical activity (Biddle & Ekkekakis, 2005; Warburton et al., 2007) and the decrease in students' physical activity levels during the transition from high school to university (Bray & Born, 2010) it is important for researchers to develop time-and-cost-effective interventions to prevent this drop in physical activity. Intervention research shows mental contrasting (a goal setting strategy) can be taught in a cost-and-time-effective way in order to increase physical activity (Oettingen, 2012). Researchers have also found that individuals who consider the emotional effects of physical activity are more likely to be physically active than those who consider the health-related effects (Rhodes et al., 2009). The purpose of this research is to combine these two approaches to develop and evaluate a novel mental contrasting intervention to increase physical activity among a sample of undergraduate students.

NCT ID: NCT02519946 Completed - Physical Activity Clinical Trials

On-Line Intervention to Lower Cardiovascular Risk in Pediatric Heart Transplant Patients

Start date: August 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Pediatric heart transplant patients have a high-risk cardiovascular profile affecting their long-term outcomes and survival. Currently, no effective cardiovascular preventative care is provided for this pediatric population, in part, due to the fact that clinic-based programs are not easily accessible to children and their families. However, tele-health has been show to improve medical outcomes by making care more accessible to these patients. This study aims to meet the urgent need for an effective and sustainable delivery of preventative care to pediatric heart transplant patients using a diet and exercise intervention program delivered live over the internet direct to these patients' homes.
