Filter by:Perception of workload and stress are very important issues in occupational health. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of stress management training on nurses' individual workload perception and stress. A sample of 56 nurses who agreed to participate in the study was selected by the nurses themselves as the experimental (n = 28) and control group (n = 28). The data collection tools will be applied before the intervention and after the intervention.
General practitioners perceive their work as meaningful. However, according to a report from the Swedish Medical Association in 2022, about a quarter had considered leaving the profession altogether and nearly half had considered changing workplaces or reducing their working hours during the past 12 months. Several studies on mindfulness, yoga and meditation have shown effect on stress and burn out symptoms. The aim of the study is to investigate whether a specially designed 6-week program incorporating meditation, mindfulness, and yoga, tailored to address specific challenges that resident doctors may face in their daily work, can reduce perceived stress levels compared to a control group.
Background: In the context of neonatal care, the increasing complexity of medical interventions poses challenges to nurses, contributing to elevated workplace stress. This stress can impact the well-being of nurses and the overall quality of patient care. Despite the documented significance of workplace stress, there is a scarcity of research on effective stress management interventions for neonatal care nurses. This pilot study aims to explore the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of a virtual reality (VR) intervention on stress reduction among nurses in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at CHU Sainte-Justine. Methods: A randomized intra-subject clinical trial will be conducted, involving 30 NICU nurses and nurse assistants. Participants will act as their own controls, receiving both experimental (VR) and control (tablet gaming) interventions in a random sequence. The study will assess the feasibility of the interventions, clinical trial procedures, and participant satisfaction. Stress levels will be measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (Trait subscale), Nurse Stress Scale, Stress Numerical Rating Scale-11, and salivary alpha-amylase. Additionally, participants will provide sociodemographic information, and the study will evaluate the perceived clinical workload during intervention sessions. Interventions: The study will employ Paperplane Therapeutics' VR program, INSPIRE, designed to offer a multisensory relaxation experience. The control intervention involves tablet gaming during breaks. Both interventions will be 15 minutes in duration, implemented over five weeks. Results: The study aims to provide insights into the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of VR-based stress management interventions for NICU nurses. Data analysis will involve statistical comparisons of stress measures between VR and control interventions, contributing to the evidence base for implementing workplace stress reduction programs. Conclusion: This research addresses a critical gap in the literature by investigating the potential benefits of VR interventions for stress reduction among NICU nurses. If successful, this approach could enhance workplace well-being, job satisfaction, and overall nursing care quality, leading to broader implications for stress management strategies in healthcare settings.
FOREST is a positive emotion skills program designed to target mental health and coping needs for frontline violence prevention workers at READI Chicago. Ten skills are taught over a period of nine months during existing meetings and wellness activities, as well as in online modules in READI's Learning Management System (LMS). Through infusing the FOREST skills throughout READI, we hope to inspire organizational culture change that will emphasize the importance of wellbeing and enhance resilience, therefore reducing burnout and turnover.
The purpose of the study is to study changes in sedentary behavior following a behavioral intervention (sit-and-stand desk, and cycloergometer)
Low adherence in self-guided internet interventions might lead to worse outcomes. This randomized controlled trial aims to test whether adherence can be improved if self-efficacy regarding adherence to internet interventions is boosted before the intervention starts. It is expected that enhancing this specific type of self-efficacy will increase people's adherence and help them fully benefit from the intervention, namely experience lower job stress and higher work engagement.
The goal of this four-part preclinical [I-II] and clinical [III-IV] trial is to compare, with randomised crossover study design [I-IV], a new medical airway device with standard procedure (biteblock or no device) for upper airway patency during sedation with intravenous propofol [I-IV]. - Page 1 of 9 [DRAFT] - The two main questions it aims to answer are if this new airway device is superior to standard procedure with respect to - maintenance of spontaneous ventilation [I] and upper airway volumes [II] at moderate and deep steady-state levels of sedation in healthy volunteer study participants, and - fewer and less lasting bedside signs of respiratory depression [III-IV], and less adjuvant use of manual airway support [III-IV] during procedural sedation (PS) according to standard of care(SOC) in study patients scheduled for colonoscopy or ureteral catheterisation under PS. Owing to the crossover study design used throughout the trial, there are no comparison groups of study participants [I-II] or study patients [III-IV].
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about burnout syndrome among healthcare workers in tertiary hospital. The main questions It aims to answer are the effects of music therapy on burnout syndrome among healthcare workers. Participants will get examined using Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Service Survey and Heart Rate Variability device before and after music therapy intervention.
