NCT ID: NCT05875142 Completed - Clinical trials for Substance-Related Disorders

Scalable Digital Delivery of Evidence-based Training for Professionals to Maximize Treatment Rates of OUD in Families

Start date: May 23, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this project is to develop and evaluate the technical feasibility and commercial viability of a scalable digital counselor training program for CRAFT. This pilot project will develop an enhanced training model for CRAFT and digitize it to maximize scalability. In this project, investigators will: Aim 1: Produce the digital counselor training prototype and coaching process, tailored to OUD - with stakeholder input. Aim 2: Conduct a pilot study of 3 levels of digital training (Level 1 - Digital tutorial only [T]; Level 2 - Tutorial & digital training materials for self-study [TM]; Level 3 - Tutorial, digital materials, feedback and coaching [TMC]) to establish feasibility, acceptability, and examine the effects of training on CRAFT knowledge, fidelity, and treatment entry and retention.

We The Village Family Support Study

Start date: January 9, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The United States is in the midst of an opioid crisis. Over-prescription of opioid analgesic pain relievers contributed to a rapid escalation of use and misuse of these substances across the country. In 2016, more than 2.6 million Americans were diagnosed with opioid use disorder (OUD) and more than 42,000 have died of overdose involving opioids. This death rate is more than any year on record and has quadrupled since 1999 (1,2). Leveraging the potential of available data bases and health IT technologies may help to combat opioid crisis by targeting various aspects of the problem ranging from the prevention of opioid misuse to OUD treatment. NIH through NIDA solicits the research and development of data-driven solutions and services that focus on issues related to opioid use prevention, opioid use, opioid overdose prevention or OUD treatment. In this project, We The Village, Inc. will address a need to prepare Concerned Significant Others (CSOs) to best use their influence over the trajectory of a loved one's OUD. CSOs are motivated to help, make majority of treatment decisions and payments and have influence over treatment entry and thus, impact the trajectory of an OUD. The project goal is to develop digital delivery of Community Reinforcement And Family Training (CRAFT) methodology, an empirical family behavioral intervention to improve outcomes around treatment entry, family functioning and substance use.

NCT ID: NCT04082247 Completed - Sleep Clinical Trials

Healthy Children 2021 Study in Childcare Centers

HC2021
Start date: September 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In Portugal, 17.3% of children under 10 years old are overweight and 7.7% are obese. Research has shown the implementation of healthy lifestyle promotion programs and obesity prevention, however "best practices" are far from being defined. Also, the first five years of life are important for the executive functions development, namely memory, inhibition (including self-regulation) and flexibility, which includes creative thinking, thinking "outside of the box", important in problem solving. The importance of social and emotional dimensions, as well as physical health for the development of cognitive health is consensual, as sleep deprivation, low physical activity, unhealthy food may inhibit the proper development of executive functions. This project aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a healthy lifestyle promotion program on emotional, social and cognitive development and eating habits, sleep and physical activity in children between 12 and 42 months of age. A cluster randomised trial will be developed and 300 children, from 16 childcare centres will be invited to participate. Half of the childcare centres will be allocated to the control group and the other half to the intervention group. Data collection will occur before randomisation (at baseline) and after intervention. A feasibility study will be undertaken prior to the experimental study, in accordance with internationally accepted procedures. The investigators intend to implement the concept that the development of executive functions requires the combination of healthy eating, physical activity and sleep. The project will contribute with evidence-based to the cognitive, social and emotional development in children.

NCT ID: NCT02494128 Completed - Family Health Clinical Trials

Early Group Based Parental Support Within Child Health Service - Group Leadership

Start date: September 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

All parents in Sweden are offered group based parental support within Child Health Service (CHS) but only 40% participate. Nurses feel insecure in their group leadership and express a need for education in group leadership and group dynamics. Most CHC nurses do not have formal education or training in group leadership and the aim of this study was to evaluate a group based education program in group leadership for Child Health Care (CHC) nurses.

NCT ID: NCT01796275 Completed - Family Health Clinical Trials

Happy Family Kitchen Project II

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

The School of Public Health of HKU collaborates with the Hong Kong Council of Social Service (HKSCC) to conduct a district-based mega-project "Happy Family Kitchen", which using "eating" and "the kitchen" as a platform, to make the effort to improve effective communication in Hong Kong families. The "HFK 2" project is a enhanced version of HFK project, which plan to be conducted in the Tsuen Wan, Kwai Chung and Tsing Yi district from August 2012 to August 2013. This project adopts a cluster-randomized controlled design, with the application of positive psychology concepts as a theoretical framework. A community-based participatory (CBP) approach, which is an effective way to engage public health researchers and community members (NGOs, schools, other major stakeholders, and participants), will be used. Both quantitative and qualitative methods will be used in the evaluation of major outcomes (participants' family relationship and 3Hs) at different time points throughout the project. Process evaluation will be performed to evaluate the process of each component of the project. The whole project includes two phases: Phase 1: Model enhancement- an enhanced model of project is started with the training the trainer workshop to build capacity among the community partners. After that, the trained community partners design and conduct the district-based intervention programmes by using one of the five themes of the positive psychology framework, which teach the participants to practice positive behaviors for improving family communication, and in turn promote the 3Hs. The five themes are joy, flow, gratitude, savoring and listening. The pre-, post-, 4 weeks and 3 month follow up questionnaire surveys are conducted to assess the effectiveness of the programmes. All of the participating NGOs and schools will be randomly allocated into three groups: Intervention arm 1: core session intervention + booster intervention; Intervention arm 2: only core session intervention; Control arm: waiting list control, only questionnaire evaluations can be conducted at different time points. A subsequent qualitative study is conducted to further explore the outcomes, the problems and the requirements from the programmes. Phase 2: Model scaling up- A series of Professional Tool Kits consist of practice guides and evaluation tools for different service settings will be published with the contribution of participating NGOs and project partners. The tool kits will be the key reference and be further disseminated to a wider scope. A series of Professional Practice Seminars will be organized in different regions (including Hong Kong, Kowloon and New Territories). Social work practitioners of various service settings will be invited to attend the seminars. The evidence-based professional tool kits will be introduced and distributed in the seminar. Clinical psychologist will be the speaker on how to apply positive psychology in practice, and HKU staff will also illustrate the use of evaluation tools in assessing the outcome of the program. Participating NGOs of this project will be invited to share their practice experience in Tsuen Wan and Kwai Tsing district as well. another new edition of Happy Family Cookbook will be published and distributed to the whole territory. The new edition will be enhanced with more attractive content including healthy recipes and tips for positive communication etc. To enhance the interactivity of the cookbook, related apps for mobile devices will be developed for public free download.
