The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential for inhalation of plant-based aromas to reduce stress and burnout among healthcare professionals and staff in hospitals and urgent care centers.
Physical exercise (PE) shows beneficial effects on somatic and psychiatric symptoms. "Braining" is a clinical invention where psychiatric staff exercise together with patients to help patients start and execute PE regularly. In the present study feasibility of the intervention will be evaluated, how Braining is perceived and implemented, and effects on health and physical activity among staff. It is hypothesized that staff health and physical activity will increase after implementing Braining at the unit. Braining will be implemented at four psychiatric units in Region Stockholm, Sweden. During 6 months staff will be trained and receive implementation support. To measure feasibility the staff will answer self-rating questionnaires and be invited to a focus group interview post the implementation period. Implementation will be evaluated by ratings of compliance, the self-rating questionnaire Normalization Process Theory Measure (S-NoMAD), and focus group interviews. Health will be measured by self ratings of stress, sleep, general health, and engagement pre implementation and every month during the 6 month implementation phase. Ratings will be repeated at follow up 12 month after implementation started. Physical activity will be rated during the 6 months implementation phase using a tracker of activity and at follow up 12 month after implementation started. All staff at the units will be invited to participate in the evaluations, approximately 20 individuals per unit.
This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effects of an 8-week program consisting of dog-assisted therapy on the work engagement, burnout, pain, and quality of life among professionals working in a School for Special Education. A total of 30 participants will be involved in the program, which will be comprised of eight 50-min sessions conducted once a week. The hypothesis of the researchers in this study is that this program will achieve a reduction in burnout levels in workers, as well as an improvement in engagement and quality of life.
The present study aims to compare the differential effects of a mindfulness-based intervention (MBI) and physical exercise (PE) on different stress and health variables by self-reports. A randomized controlled trial of three groups is proposed, with pretest, posttest and four follow-ups at 1, 2, 3 and 6 months that would be developed among the employees of two large multinationals.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of FSST 2.0 (family supportive supervisor training plus support for use of family and sick leaves) using a randomized control trial design. We expect the intervention will increase supervisors' family supportive and leave supportive behaviors, which in turn will increase employees' leave use and decrease employees' work-family conflict, emotional exhaustion, depressive symptoms, and turnover intentions. This study will enroll a minimum 200 groups of managers and their employees. Managers in the intervention condition will complete pre- and 2 post-intervention Workplace Assessments, 2 online training modules, 1 webinar where managers can review intervention content and ask questions and share reactions on the materials. Managers in the control group and employees in both groups will complete pre- and 2 post-intervention Workplace Assessments. The post-intervention Workplace Assessment will be completed 3 and 6 months after the intervention. The total duration of the study is 9 months as the wait list control group will be offered the intervention and 2nd follow up survey after the 6-month trial.
The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between the resilience of anesthesia professionals and the stress measured during a simulation session.
Nurses who intensive care unit will be entered. Participants will be randomized to one of two study arms: Arm 1: Progressive muscle relaxation; Arm 2: control. Hypothesis: Progressive muscle relaxation will decrease occupational stress, headache and improve well-being.
Abstract Background: Emergency Medicine Wards (EMWs) are among the most stressful wards of hospitals. Emotional Intelligence (EI) seems to be one of the factors that can aid individuals in overcoming environmental stresses. Therefore, the present study aimed at evaluating the role of training in improving EI skills and addressing its indirect effect on reducing job stress of emergency medical assistants in the emergency department. Materials and Methods: In the present study, 20 emergency medical assistants were trained in EI skills while 22 assistants received no training. Then, all participants' EI level and job stress were assessed and compared before and after the intervention using the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory(EQ-i) and the Osipow job stress questionnaire, respectively.
The Norwegian Sickness Absence Clinic (NSAC) Nudge Study is a naturalistic randomized controlled multicentre trial which aim is to measure the efficacy of nudging clinicians' attention towards patients' motivation for work, barriers for return to work and work environment challenges, on functional recovery as primary outcome, and health outcomes as secondary outcome. Patients will be recruited in five different NSACs across northern Norway. In total 1100 patients will be randomized to two equal probability treatment arms: 1) NSAC with the nudge, and 2) NSAC without the nudge. The nudge is tailored to the individual patient's needs using survey, and the clinicians are presented with a summary of this patient survey prior to consultations highlighting health problems and challenges as reported by the patient in the survey.
