Filter by:This study is a 16-week intent-to-treat randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 120 suicidal juvenile justice (JJ)-involved transition-age (TA) youth (age 15-21 years) and a primary caregiver (dyads). Dyads will be randomly assigned to iKinnect2.0 (n=60 dyads) or Life360 (control app) plus an electronic suicide resources brochure (n=60 dyads). This design will test iKinnect2.0's new features for suicide prevention against TA youth awareness of and access to high-quality suicide prevention resources, while simultaneously testing features relating to conduct problems and parent management against parents knowing the TA youth's whereabouts in real-time and controlling for dyad member engagement in technology (Life360). Participants will be assessed at baseline, 4, 8 and 16 weeks. Primary youth-reported outcomes relating to suicide risk include: Suicidal behaviors (ideation, planning, attempts), non-suicidal self-injurious behaviors, self-efficacy in coping with distress, and use of imminent distress coping strategies (behavioral skills, use of crisis stabilization plan). Youth will also report on their criminal behavior. Primary caregiver-reported outcome variables relating to youth suicide include: Self-efficacy in applying family-based suicide-prevention strategies and reported use of those strategies; caregivers will also report on their own functioning (efficacy/confidence in parenting skills, life stress), TA youth functioning (internalizing and externalizing symptoms), parental management behaviors (expectation clarity, parental monitoring, discipline effectiveness/consistency, use of rewards), and parent-youth relationship quality (communication, conflict, support). App satisfaction and use of technology outcomes (i.e., degree of app usage, features used) will be examined and reported descriptively.
Pediatric, developmental and mental health problems are more common than renal, cardiac and renal problems. Compartmental problems were often conceptualised across two broad spectrums: internalising intrapersonal problems like anxiety, depression and withdrawal and externalising problems such as Interpersonal problems such as hyperactivity and aggression. Mental disorders with long-term consequences can result in children and adolescents, undermining health compliance and reducing societies' ability to be safe and productive. As, children and adolescent have long-term deteriorating effects of mental health problems are often serious. Early detection and identification of problems are in the best interest of children, adolescents, their families, and the community as a whole. All three are important. how epidemiology can help our understanding of children and adolescent mental health: the burden of the community, measurement and tracking highly significant. This study will display the first large-scale study of psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents in the Egypt . to provide services, including prevention and intervention based on evidence of mental health, a population-representative child survey and adolescent mental estimates disorders were needed urgently
Paediatric behavioural, developmental, and mental health issues are more common than childhood cancers, cardiac problems, and renal problems combined. Behavioural problems have often been conceptualized along two broad spectrums: internalizing problems which are expressed in intrapersonal manifestation, such as anxiety, depression, and withdrawal; and externalizing problems which are demonstrated in interpersonal manifestation, such as hyperactivity and aggression The lack of attention to the mental health of children and adolescents may lead to mental disorders with lifelong consequences, undermines compliance with health regimens, and reduces the capacity of societies to be safe and productive. As, children and adolescent mental health problems often have serious long term debilitating effects . Early identification and treatment of these problems are in the best interest of children, adolescents, their families, and society as a whole . All three essential ways in which epidemiology can contribute to our understanding of children and adolescent mental health: community burden, measurement, and triage were of utmost importance. planning and conducting the survey. In this study the researchers will present the first large-scale survey of child and adolescent psychiatric disorders at Assiut government For adequate planning of services, including evidence-based mental health prevention and intervention, a population-representative survey of children and adolescent estimating mental disorders was urgently needed
Twenty percent of all children struggle with mental health challenges, most of whom will remain unrecognized, unsupported, and unable to access quality care. A major barrier to closing this care gap is a lack of evidence-based delivery models that are contextualized to low-resource settings. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of teacher-delivered transdiagnostic mental healthcare for children in rural primary schools of India. Implementation process and context will also be examined. This is a stepped-wedge cluster randomized controlled trials (SW-CRCT), with an embedded qualitative evaluation, that will be conducted in low-cost private primary schools in the rural Darjeeling Himalayas of India. The primary outcome is children's mental health status measured by the Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA) Teacher Report Form and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. Secondary outcomes include: 1) daily functioning measured by the Adaptive Behavior Assessment System (ABAS-3), 2) academic achievement measured by the Annual Status of Education Report (ASER) tool, and 3) school attendance. Outcome data will be collected at baseline and endline in each academic year. The primary analysis for each outcome is the mean score at endline for children receiving targeted intervention (Tealeaf: Mansik Swastha or Enhanced Usual Care) between trial arms. The primary hypothesis is that children receiving mental health struggles receiving the Tealeaf intervention will demonstrate improved mental health compared to children with mental health struggles receiving enhanced usual care. The goal of the embedded qualitative study will be to explore the effect of cultural and social context on intervention implementation and efficacy, how and why changes may occur, and the culture, context, and community in which the study occurs. This qualitative research will be driven by the scientific standard of advanced qualitative methods (ethnography and participant observation). This trial may offer a new approach to caring for children with mental health struggles that is potentially scalable in India as it empowers existing classroom teachers.
The objective is to compare the care including the solution of ambient sensory biofeedback "Inner Garden", compared to the care without this solution, on the regulation of behavioral disorders during a crisis requiring to take the child out of group care. The nursing support with the "Inner Garden" tool in three care units will be compared with the practice in six other units not equipped with this tool.
Children with neurodevelopmental disorders may show difficulties in self-regulation. The main objective of this study is to improve self-regulation skills in children between 6 and 11 years old with neurodevelopmental disorders. Methodology: A randomized controlled trial will be conducted with the use of "SF-MRehab: Un colegio emocionante", a non-inmersive virtual reality system where virtual objects can be managed by children in a natural way by using their hands. Children will be recruited from several schools from Granada (Spain) and they will be randomly allocated to two groups. Assessment will be conducted before and after the intervention as well as 24 weeks after the end of the intervention process. Experimental group will receive the intervention using virtual reality. Control group will receive the intervention through a standard self-regulation program. Both interventions will be performed once a week for a total of 10 sessions. Changes in self-regulation, as well as acceptability of technology with the use of SR-MRehab will be evaluated. The results will be published and will contribute with evidence regarding the use of this type of intervention on children with neurodevelopmental disorders
This project will examine how virtual reality treatment that provides users with the alternate perspective of a virtual interpersonal interaction impacts psychological and neurobiological markers of social perspective taking in children with a disruptive behavior disorder. The investigators anticipate that experiencing a virtual encounter from a counterpart's point-of-view improves a child's perspective taking and alters brain function related to imagining another person's pain.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate early implementation outcomes of a positive parenting program, Child Adult Relationship Enhancement in Primary Care (PriCARE), in the foster care setting and to assess the efficacy of PriCARE in promoting positive parenting and increasing empathy among foster caregivers.
This study tests the effectiveness of an intervention treatment algorithm vs. usual care control in a practical clinical trial. Control arm providers will receive a standard medication alert in the electronic medical record (EMR) when initiating an antipsychotic prescription for an eligible patient. Intervention arm prescribers will receive an interactive medication alert in the EMR when prescribing for eligible patients and the patient and provider will enter the treatment algorithm (provider - medication alert plus clinical review by a child psychiatrist; patient - offer of personalized behavioral health navigation plus bridging therapy when appropriate). The study aims to recruit 800 eligible patients in 4 health systems.
The overall purpose for conducting this research is to improve the safety and efficacy of care for perioperative patients who have developmental delays and behavioral challenges. The specific objectives for this study are to describe distress behaviors and interventions used in the ACT population. The investigators will also determine the relationship between a predictive measure of distress (the Psychosocial Risk Assessment in Pediatrics score) with the actual distress behaviors exhibited by patients in the perioperative area. This study will provide knowledge that is necessary in order to develop best practices and to guide future research for this patient population. Further understanding the techniques used to improve care in the perioperative setting may also provide useful information to consider in other healthcare settings where this patient population has difficulty with coping and cooperating (ex. vaccinations, placing IVs, dental work, etc.).
