Filter by:Background: Nature-based virtual reality (VR) and other outdoor experiences in head-mounted displays (HMDs) offer powerful, non-pharmacological tools for hospice teams to help patients undergoing end-of-life (EOL) transitions. However, the psychological distress of the patient-caregiver dyad is interconnected and highlights the interdependence and responsiveness to distress as a unit. Hospice care services and healthcare need strategies to help patients and informal caregivers with EOL transitions.
This study was conducted to determine the effect of Watson Human Caring Model-based psychoeducation given to the relatives of patients receiving palliative care on hopelessness, death anxiety and the burden of care.
The purpose of this research is to determine the effect that repeated, personalized virtual reality experiences have on symptom severity, comparing self-reported symptom severity both pre and post each session, and overtime across sessions. We will also determine if this intervention results in a high rating of presence in VR, and if presence is related to the magnitude of the change in symptoms.
The COSGOD III trial performed follow up until term age or discharge from the neonatal intensive care unit, whatever came first. The first neonate was randomised in September 2017 and the last in October 2021. A prospective follow up of the included neonates until an age of two years was not feasible in the COSGOD III trial since funding for long-term follow-up was not available. However, data on long-term outcome of the included neonates into COSGOD III trial are of high interest. In many centres, who participated in the COSGOD III trial neonates are assessed routinely for long term outcome in outpatient clinics with Bayleys III/IV test or PARCA-R (Parent Report of Children's Abilities) questionnaire. Aim of the present study is therefore to analyse in neonates, who were included into the COSGOD III trial, in a retrospective observational study routinely performed long-term survival and neurodevelopmental outcome assessment at a corrected age of 2 years (18-30 months).
The goal of this randomized effectiveness study is to evaluate the different targeting strategies for the delivery of balanced energy and protein (BEP) supplements among pregnant women in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The main goals of the study are to: 1) determine the effectiveness of two individual-based antenatal BEP targeting strategies for preventing adverse pregnancy outcomes; 2) compare the cost-effectiveness of the universal BEP provision with two individual-based targeting strategies for preventing adverse pregnancy outcomes; and 3) generate implementation evidence regarding the feasibility and acceptability of different antenatal BEP targeting strategies. Pregnant women will be enrolled during pregnancy, assigned to different strategies of BEP supplementation, and followed from pregnancy through six weeks postpartum to evaluate the impacts of different BEP targeting strategies on pregnancy, maternal, and child outcomes.
The study aims to evaluate the effect of the hemostatic matrix with fibrinogen and thrombin (TachoSil®) on vena cava inferior anastomoses during liver transplantation from a deceased donor. The research comprises two groups: an experimental cohort with patients receiving a hemostatic matrix of fibrinogen and thrombin on the anastomotic line of the inferior vena cava, and a control cohort utilizing hemostasis without matrix sealent. The study involves a total of 170 participants, evenly distributed with 85 patients in each group.
Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) is a group of rare congenital heart defects with various clinical presentations. The lifetime-risk of an individual living with AAOCA is unknown, and data from multicentre registries are urgently needed to adapt current recommendations and guide optimal patient management. The European Registry for AAOCA (EURO-AAOCA) aims to assess differences with regard to AAOCA management between centres.
The goal of this observational study is to create and rigorously evaluate a violence intervention and prevention corps (VIP Corps) training using a randomized controlled trial among undergraduate and professional students; and to develop a novel maternal injury surveillance system (MISS) to complement an existing maternal violent death registry in Kentucky.
to estimate incidences of major complications, such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia, death, and delivery room resuscitation among extremely preterm and extremely low birth weight infants in Northern China
The goal of this study is to test the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial to learn about implementation of an intervention model, Advance Care Planning I Plan (ACP-I Plan), among older Latinos with chronic illnesses in community settings.
