Filter by:This study is designed to tackle the issue of physician burnout via a wide-lens approach, integrating both mindfulness-based training and nutritional counseling in the management of professional burnout. The investigators will evaluate the effects of mindfulness training and nutritional counseling interventions through assessment of changes in physiological and biochemical parameters known to be adversely affected in burnout, in addition to the standardized Professional Fulfillment inventory scores at 3-6 months post-intervention.
This study was carried out to determine the effect of ACT-based interventions applied to parents of special needs children (CSN) on their levels of psychological inflexibility, psychological resilience, depression, anxiety, stress, and caregiver burden.
The primary aims of the study are to 1) provide a hospital employee population with a mindfulness based stress reduction workshop and 2) evaluate the impact of this clinically validated group mindfulness intervention on burnout in health care employees. Secondary outcomes will be anxiety, depression, quality of life and self compassion.
Resident wellness and physician burnout are under the spotlight more and more as data begins to show that there is a point of diminishing return on the number of hours in training. In 2003, resident work hours were restricted to less than 80 hours per week averaged over 4 weeks. This change was implemented in response to the robust body of evidence that increased work hours leads to decreased sleep, which in turn leads to medical errors and depression. These factors directly and indirectly lead to worse outcomes for patients. In residency, it is difficult objectively to assess when residents are beginning to experience burnout and depression. The investigators propose a study to determine whether tracking of certain heart rate parameters (resting heart rate and heart rate variability) as well as sleep can correlate to subjective assessment of resident wellness, burnout and depression. The investigators will also compare these measures to biomarkers of stress, such as salivary cortisol. The results of this study may lead to improved understanding of what truly causes burnout and may be an eventual target for intervention to help improve short- and long-term outcomes for resident physicians as well as their patients.
This study evaluates the feasibility, including acceptability and preliminary efficacy, of an automated bidet intervention to make it easier for caregivers to assist with toileting.
Parents of children with a chronic disease or functional disabilities have an increased risk of stress-related distress and reduced quality of life. Internet-delivered interventions are one way to reach out to exhausted parents who may often have challenges in finding time to access face-to-face services. We developed a guided web-based Acceptance and Commitment Therapy intervention for Finnish parents of children with chronic conditions or functional disabilities. Participants (N=100) will be recruited on parent associations' Facebook groups and randomly assigned to guided web-based ACT condition and a control condition receiving psychoeducation. The guided web-based ACT condition will receive a 10-week web intervention including three remote meetings with a psychologist through the telemedicine application Doxy.me. Symptoms of burnout (SMBQ), depression (PHQ), health-related quality of life (RAND-36), mindfulness (FFMQ), general measure of psychological flexibility (CompACT) as well as the wellbeing of their child (KINDL) will be measured before (pre) and after the intervention (post), at 7-month (follow-up 1) and 10-month (follow-up 2) after the pre-measurement. In this randomized controlled trial we will investigate the outcomes and the mechanisms of change of the web-based ACTintervention. In addition, we will examine the acceptability of the web-based intervention.
Considering the known challenges facing newly graduated nurses, there are possibilities to implement preventive actions. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effects of a preventive intervention among newly graduated nurses, supporting proactive strategies for sleep and recuperation in relation to work related stress and shift work.
Family caregivers are the key persons in the recovery and rehabilitation process of stroke survivors. Despite multiple researches recommended the development of interventions which are based on the family caregivers' needs and recommended the conduction of the interventions based on the integration of skill-building, psychoeducation, and peer support to relieve the care burden they feel, there are no studies conducted to evaluate the effect of such these interventions on the family caregivers of stroke survivors in Egypt. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of a tailored multidimensional intervention on the care burden among family caregivers of stroke survivors. Using a randomized control trial, 110 family caregivers will be recruited from the community; from the outpatient clinics and rehabilitation clinics which are located at Mansoura city (Capital of Dakahlia Governorate) and the surrounding cities and villages. The participants will be randomized through 1:1 open-label randomization to the intervention group and the control group. The intervention group will receive the tailored multidimensional intervention. The intervention will last for 6 months. 3 home visits and 3 telephone interventions and 1 peer support will be conducted during the first 3 months. the home visits and telephone interventions will be conducted biweekly alternately. During the second 3 months, 3 telephone follow-ups will be conducted monthly. Regarding the control group, they will receive a simple educational booklet through one home visit. The primary outcome is the care burden (Zarit Burden Interview) and secondary outcomes are the perceived needs (Family Needs Questionnaire-Revised), coping strategies (Brief Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced) and quality of life (World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF) among family caregivers. The primary and secondary outcomes will be assessed basically before the intervention and after the 3rd and 6th months since the start of the intervention.
This study investigates the feasibility and effects of an app-based mindfulness meditation intervention for PA students.
The investigators hypothesize that wellbeing scores following the study of Spiritual Flow, when compared to taking the survey before receiving Spiritual Flow, will increase. Pre- and post-Spiritual Flow assessments will include wellbeing, nonstress, and positive affect scores. The investigators also hypothesize that several subjects will have found that Spiritual Flow increased their level of inspiration and peacefulness.
