Filter by:Psychological distress commonly occurs among women during perinatal period. maternal psychological distress can also bring negative influence on neonatal outcomes, such as infant health, child development or mother-child interaction. Hence, developing interventions to improve mental wellbeing during this period is vital. Mindfulness based intervention (MBI) was found effective in reducing psychological distress. Most currently, delivering MBIs via internet, which is more accessible and inexpensive, shows promising positive effect in reducing psychological distress. However, randomized control trial with sufficient power is await to further confirm the positive effect among pregnant women. Moreover, the positive effects of MBIs was found associated with the heart rate variability biofeedback. However, the efficacy of MBI on HRV is rarely studied among pregnant women. Also, the potential association of HRV between MBI and psychological wellbeing needs further examination. This research aims to test the effectiveness of the Guided-Mobile Based Perinatal Mindfulness Intervention (GMBPMI) among pregnant women experiencing psychological distress during the pre and post-natal period, as well as examining the efficacy of GMBPMI on HRV.
There is an urgent need to better understand and manage the mental health burden among working adults. Up to 40% of persons with serious mental illnesses do not receive care or stop intervention programs due to negative stigma. Additionally, nearly 50 percent of respondents diagnosed with an anxiety disorder said it interfered with their relationships with coworkers. Close to $6000 USD is lost per working person each year due to depression and its effects. Rose (Recognition of Speech and Emotion) is a mental health-focused application that utilizes artificial intelligence to identify symptoms and provides targeted, tailored in-person therapy solutions for its users. The RoSE application provides solutions to supplement ongoing in-person psychotherapy. This includes journaling and daily assessments that provide curated content and feedback. The current feasibility study aims to recruit 45 established outpatients with at least mild depressive and/or anxiety symptoms who will be consented and enrolled in a five to ten-week study. There are two study arms: (1) the intervention arm and (2) a waitlist control arm. During the course of the study, the participants in the intervention arm will use the RoSE application daily. They will receive either weekly in-person psychotherapy with their established psychotherapist for a total of four sessions over four weeks or biweekly in-person psychotherapy with their established psychotherapist for a total of four sessions over eight weeks. The participants in the waitlist arm will serve as controls unless there is attrition from the intervention group at which time waitlist participants will be offered a spot in the intervention arm. The primary objectives of the study are (1) To assess the usability of the RoSE application and (2) To evaluate the short-term impact on mood and anxiety of using the RoSE application to augment in-person psychotherapy. The secondary objectives are (1) To examine the usage and utility of an in-application journaling function and (2) To examine the usage and utility of in-application curated insights.
This study is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate ParkRx, a clinic-based counseling intervention in which health care providers prescribe park visits at a specific frequency, duration, and includes instructions for physical activity in the parks. We will assess whether prescribing visits to specific parks changes physical activity levels and improves health and mental health outcomes among low-income pediatric patients.
Health in work - a measure for increased coping and work participation -An effect analysis of a health- and work environment intervention at the workplace. Part 1:quantitative data collection The main objective of this study is to investigate the effect of the workplace intervention in the new Norwegian national programme Health in work (HelseIArbeid) through a pragmatic cluster-randomized study. The main hypothesis is that this interdisciplinary health and welfare intervention at the workplace reduces sick leave and improves mastering of common health problems more efficiently than a conventional welfare intervention. More specifically, it is hypothesized that the Health in work intervention has a better cost-effectiveness in terms of sick leave, use of health services and coping with common health problems indicated by an increased health-related quality of life.
Children with, or at elevated risk for, brain-based developmental disabilities can experience lifelong consequences and challenges throughout their development. In particular, preschool years (3-6 years of age) can be stressful as families wait to get services and care for their child. Nationally and internationally, service delivery models during this critical period are not standardized, and differ within and across provinces and across patient conditions, leading to long wait times, service gaps and duplications. This study has two main hypotheses: 1. A standardized approach to "coaching" (i.e. coach + online education tools + peer support network) is feasible in the real-life context, and acceptable to caregivers and can be delivered across multiple sites in urban/suburban/rural settings. 2. A standardized approach to "coaching" enhances parental health (parents' empowerment and sense of competence, quality of life, and minimizes parenting stress), family health care experience (care coordination experience and process of care) at similar health care cost (economic analysis), when compared to usual and locally available care.
This trial will assess the effect of school-based emotional resilience and health curriculum, called Youth First, on middle school students who receive the curriculum in 7th and 8th grades. Key psychosocial wellbeing, mental health, educational wellbeing and substance use measures, will be assessed longitudinally over a three year period using a cluster randomized control design.
1. The positive outcomes reported by participants in experimental group after two weeks of interventions will be significantly better than before interventions. 2. The positive outcomes reported by participants in experimental group will be significantly better than those in control group after two weeks of providing prevention model interventions. 3. The positive outcomes reported by participants in experimental group will be significantly better than those in control group after six months of providing prevention model interventions.
