View clinical trials related to Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
Filter by:Individuals with high functioning autism spectrum disorder (ASD) frequently experience obsessions and/or compulsions that are similar to those specified in Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed.; DSM-5) criteria for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). However, little research exists on effective interventions for OCD symptoms (referred to as OCBs) in ASD. In a randomized controlled trial, a manualized functional behavior-based cognitive-behavior therapy (Fb-CBT) consisting of traditional CBT components (psychoeducation and mapping, cognitive-behavioral skills training, exposure, and response prevention) as well as function-based behavioral assessment will be evaluated. Participants will be assigned randomly to Fb-CBT or treatment as usual (TAU). Primary and secondary outcome measures will be used to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment, and will be administered at pre and post-intervention as well as six month follow-up.
The aim of the study Collabri Flex is to: - Develop a Danish model for collaborative care for patients with anxiety in general practice, based on past experience gained in the Collabri Project. - Examine the impact of this model compared with liaison-consultation for people with anxiety in a randomized controlled design from selected endpoints.
The purpose of this protocol is to employ single case analytic strategies, including a multiple baseline design and novel modeling techniques to identify changes in cross-cutting features of emotional disorders as well as emotional disorder symptoms during the implementation of The Unified Protocol for the Treatment of Emotional Disorders in Adolescents (UP-A). The first aim is to investigate relationships between the use of UP-A treatment components and changes in measures of cross-cutting features of emotional disorders. The second aim is to investigate when and how reductions in symptoms of emotional disorders and presenting problems (i.e., symptoms of anxiety and depression, severity of presenting problems) occur throughout treatment.
24 OCD patients and 24 healthy subjects will be submitted to a two-day fear conditioning paradigm during acquisition of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). OCD patients will be submitted to the paradigm at two timepoints: baseline and 4 weeks after treatment initiation with sertraline up to 200mg/day or maximum tolerated dosage. OCD patients are expected to demonstrate worsened extinction retention compared to healthy subjects at baseline. Sertraline treatment is expected to improve extinction retention compared to baseline and to normalize the brain regions being recruited with the conditioned stimuli presented during the recall phase.
The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the overall efficacy and differential effects of detached mindfulness and cognitive restructuring in the treatment of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Internet-based psychotherapy for children and adolescents with obsessive-compulsive symptoms and an age of 7 to 17 years. Sessions are verified with teleconferencing with an psychotherapist, children and their parents. The psychotherapy is supported by an App and a wristband to obtain psychophysiological data.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether acceptance and commitment therapy is effective in the treatment of SSRIs-resistant obsessive- compulsive disorder.
The purpose of this study is to test internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder in a routine clinical setting in a rural part of Sweden.
The purpose of this pilot research study is to test the effects of a medication called nabilone (Cesamet) in adults with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Participants will receive either nabilone on its own, or nabilone in combination with a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) called exposure and response prevention (EX/RP). Nabilone is a synthetic cannabinoid and acts on the brain's "endocannabinoid system," which has been hypothesized to play a role in OCD. Nabilone is approved by the FDA for the treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. It is not FDA-approved for treating OCD.
This study evaluates the efficacy and acceptability of two cognitive-behavioural interventions for reassurance seeking behaviour in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), a family accommodation reduction protocol vs. a novel support-seeking protocol. Half of participants will be randomly assigned to participate in the support-seeking intervention, whereas the other half will participate in the family accommodation reduction intervention.
