Filter by:The main purpose of this research project is to analyze the effectiveness of a Community-based Occupational Therapy Intervention on mental health for people with acquired brain injury. To this end, variables such as quality of life, occupational performance and balance, participation in significant roles and community integration will be measured. The research will be carried out as a non-randomized controlled trial study in which the participants in the experimental arm will receive a community-based occupational therapy intervention (domiciliary and telehealth intervention sessions) based on the stages of the Human Occupation Model's Remotivation Process. The participants at the control arm will receive the regular (public or private) services provision for this population profile. It is expected to be able to demonstrate the effectiveness of the intervention based on a positive result in the change in the variables, so as to increase the chance and performance of occupational participation after the acquired brain injury. Also, it is intended that families and the community are key elements of agency and support in occupational participation.
Studying the mechanisms of weight regain (WR) may provide much needed insight into sustained obesity management. The aim of this five-year, prospective, multicenter study is to evaluate the association among eating patterns (specifically maladaptive behaviors), certain psychological variables and weight trajectory in the short- and long-term after bariatric surgery (BS). The study will include 2 groups: 1.- Candidates to primary BS undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass (LGBP) or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) from September 2020 to September 2021. This group will be evaluated prior to surgery, at 4 months, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years after BS, and 2.- a control group of subjects with obesity not candidates to BS matched with the intervention group for age, sex and BMI prior to BS. They will be evaluated once. The primary variable will be: body weight: total weight lost (%), excess weight lost (%), total weight regained (%), excess of weight regain (%). Information regarding the psychological and behavioral variables will be collected using questionnaires that have been validated in our setting and will be completed by the patients themselves online.

In order to identify psychological stress in children and adolescents of mentally ill parents as early as possible, four special intervention programs (CHIMPS-therapy, CHIMPS-Prevention-single, CHIMPS-MFT-group, iCHIMPS) have been developed. These four intervention programs are based on the initial medical situation, indication and need of the families. Thereby, an individually tailored counseling service will be provided. With this current project, the four counseling approaches will be tested at 19 study sites in 12 federal states in Germany. Moreover, the interventions long-term efficacy will be evaluated.
