Filter by:Objective: The purpose of the study was to compare the effects of different types of yoga practices on mindfulness and stress levels reported by students, faculty, and staff at a health professional school. Including mindfulness cues (body scan, mindful movement, and yoga nidra) with Bishnu Gosh lineage hatha yoga as taught by Mary Jarvis may have additive therapeutic effects on mindfulness and stress. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental pre-post test design. Sixty-three individuals qualified for the study and were randomized in a 1:1 allocation ratio of matched pairs into either a physical-based yoga practice (Yoga Group, n = 31) or a mindfulness-based yoga practice (Yoga + Mindfulness Group, n = 32). Participants attended two 50-minute class sessions per week during the four-week intervention phase. The primary outcomes were the 10-item Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) and the 15-item Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS).
This is a quasi-experimental study that will examine whether mindfulness based stress reduction, adapted to an online learning management system, will reduce factors related to burnout in private practice licensed clinical social workers in New York State.
Purpose: To evaluate the stress levels of dentists working under clinical, deep sedation, or general anaesthesia. Methods: Blood pressure (Systolic, Diastolic blood pressure), Pulse value, O2 saturations were measured, and saliva samples were taken by the dentists 10 minutes before the dental treatment, at the 25th minute of the treatment, and 30 minutes after the treatment under clinic, deep sedation, and general anesthesia. Salivary cortisol was measured by electrochemiluminescence (ECLIA) method using the Cobas Cortisol ll kit. The data are analayse statistically
The objective is to study an association between the resilience developed by anesthesia professionals and the level of acute stress during a simulation session.
Yoga, a form of exercise designed to bring balance and health to the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual dimensions of the individual, will benefit many white-collar workers by using popular technological environments to increase overall physical activity and well-being. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of yoga exercises applied with two different technological access in white-collar employees on musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, sleep quality, stress level, quality of life and work efficiency.
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has particularly impacted Ecuador. By May 31, 2021, 426,000 cases (10% of health professionals) and 20,572 deaths. Care procedures, organization and priorities have been altered, if not broken. The quality and safety of COVID19 and non-COVID19 patients have been compromised. Compassion fatigue, post-traumatic stress and moral damage reactions have been observed among healthcare professionals, considered second victims of SARS-CoV-2. Without professionals who feel supported and morally strong, care will be compromised, leading to greater uncertainty and insecurity in the care of COVID19 and non-COVID19 patients. In coordination with local authorities, this project seeks to strengthen the resilience of public institutions and healthcare professionals to implement. In coordination with local authorities, this project seeks to strengthen the resilience of public institutions and health professionals to implement proven interventions and scale them up to the whole health system to strengthen it after the impact of the COVID19 pandemic. This proposal is aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 3, which includes different targets to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all ages. Health emergencies, such as the one resulting from COVID-19, pose a global risk and have shown that preparedness is vital. Improving the Quality of the National Health Services and strengthening the health system in preparedness and response to health emergencies are the main priority lines of action in this project, thus aligning with SDG target 3.8 concerning strengthening health professional morale since to save lives, countries' public health systems must be strengthened. Previous work with the local partner supports the good performance and development of this proposal, which arose from a need based on the need to This proposal arose from a need based on the lessons learned in Spain.
This feasibility pilot cluster RCT aims to pilot and feasibility test an online training toolkit (Managing Minds at Work) for line managers to develop their knowledge and confidence in preventing work-related stress and promoting mental health at work. The setting is work organisations of different types and sectors across the Midlands region of the United Kingdom. Participants must have direct managerial or supervisor responsibilities for 3 or more staff members. The intervention consists of five modules of online learning: Looking after your own Mental Health; Designing and managing work to promote mental well-being; Management competencies to prevent work-related stress; Developing a psychologically safe work environment; Having conversations about mental health at work. Each module includes some descriptive content, interactive elements and opportunities for reflections, and take between 20-30 minutes to complete. Participating organisations will be allocated to either the intervention or control arm. A waiting list control will be used, with line managers in the control organisations starting the intervention 3-months after baseline. Data will be collected through online surveys with the intervention group at baseline, immediately post-intervention (around 6 weeks post baseline), 3-months follow-up and 6-months follow-up. Control group will complete the online surveys at baseline and 3-months (as they start the intervention) and immediately after completing the intervention. As a feasibility pilot study, analysis will be focused on acceptability of the intervention, feasibility of recruitment, retention and data collection, and estimating parameters for a larger trial. The primary outcome measure is line managers' confidence to create a mentally healthy workplace. The secondary outcomes line manger mental health knowledge, line manager workplace mental health literacy, line manager self-rating of behaviour. In addition, the direct reports of line managers will be invited to participate to assess the feasibility of collecting the outcome data related to: employee well-being, employee rating of line manager behaviour, employee sickness absence, employee productivity. A process evaluation will be conducted to assess intervention acceptability, usability, implementation and effectiveness. Qualitative data will be collected via module feedback forms and in-depth interviews with a sample of line managers from the intervention arm and stakeholders.
The Women Lift Safely! Intervention study aims to increase safe carrying behavior to reduce health risks of heavy lifting in a rural area of Nepal (i.e. reducing weight and using safe lifting techniques). The study's specific aims are to: 1) Test whether a psychological intervention that promotes self-efficacy can promote women's use of safe carrying behavior effectively compared to an information only control condition. (2) Test whether including a social partner in the intervention is more effective than an individual psychological intervention.
This pilot study will evaluate possible intervention components to be included in a future stress management and health behaviour change trial and to pilot test their feasibility and acceptability in a small sample.
Test the acceptability and feasibility of a relaxation room to reduce work stress among clinicians and collect clinician-reported outcome data after using the relaxation room.
