The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility and efficacy of Internet-delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for adolescents (13 - 17 years) with sleep problems (ICBT-I). All participants will receive ICBT-I for six weeks. The investigators will also evaluate the effect of the intervention on comorbid psychiatric symptoms and function.
Both mindfulness meditation and expectancy effects are known to reduce pain intensity, pain unpleasantness and pain catastrophizing, but it is unknown whether and how expectancy effects contribute to the overall effect of mindfulness meditation on these outcomes, especially during significant global events such as the coronavirus pandemic. This study includes four interrelated aims that will probe these effects and interactions.
The main purpose of the study is to examine the effect of squat-based exercise approach in individuals with knee osteoarthritis. The aim of this study is to compare effect to three groups (flywheel exercise group, electrotherapy modality group and home exercise group) and also decrease the pain, increase muscle strength, activation values and increase the functional level of individuals. Osteoarthritis is the most common rheumatological disease in the world that primarily results in progressive cartilage destruction. Changes occurring as a result of osteoarthritis are the main cause of disability and are most common in the knee joint. Osteoarthritis; problems such as pain, tenderness, joint stiffness, joint swelling, movement restriction, joint deformities, loss of muscle strength, decreased functional capacity and impaired quality of life are observed. The daily life activities of individuals with knee osteoarthritis are restricted by the problems of walking up and down stairs, getting out of the chair, standing, squatting, walking. Improving the symptoms of the disease is an important goal of the rehabilitation process of patients with knee osteoarthritis. In individuals with knee osteoarthritis, joint structure and deformation in cartilage also show loss of strength with muscles. Strengthening exercises have been used in patients with knee osteoarthritis for a long time. Squat exercise is a type of exercise that is widely used as a strengthening exercise.
The TSEF-PTG study aims to evaluate the effects of transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) and exercise versus sham tDCS (placebo) and exercise on pain control in chronic painful total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients.
This is a single site, two-arm, parallel group randomized clinical trial comparing the effect of two mindfulness-based interventions (Mindful Interoceptive Mapping vs. Mindfulness of the Breath) on opioid-treated chronic pain patients' pleasant/unpleasant sensation reports and opioid use.
To investigate if long-term treatment of paracetamol can be discontinued without no worsening on pain, health-related quality-of-life and level of function compared to continuing paracetamol treatment in patients aged 65 years or more.
Persistent pain after treatment for breast cancer is a major clinical problem, affecting 25-60 % of the patients and is a source of considerable physical disability and psychological distress. Thus, the development of novel interventions to improve pain management for these patients is of clinical importance. Resistance training (RT) is a promising tool to combat a variety of undesirable adverse effects due to breast cancer treatment. Further, research suggests that it may also be able to provide pain-relieving benefits. Hypothesis: Resistance training will improve pain perception and physical function in the short- and long term compared to a non-training control group.
Chronic pain is one of the pathological processes with the greatest impact on the demand of health services. The cost of this process in Spain according to the results is 2.5% of Gross Domestic Product (Breivik, Collett, Ventafridda et al. 2006).Mainly affects women and in it psychological, behavioral and psychological factors converge (Cöster, Kendall, Gerdle et al. 2008). The role of gender as a social determinant of health is known (Stansfeld, 2006). Multidisciplinary and not only pharmacological intervention stands as a desirable paradigm for addressing this type of health problem, and it is considered necessary to standardize treatment in this regard. Thus, psychological constructs such as the concept of "catastrophization" have demonstrated the relationship between suffering and the displacing experience (Wade, Riddle, Price, Dumenci, 2011) and the psychological framework of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy has also revealed its positive effect. . The rise of new technologies makes it necessary to give added value to the use of digital mobile devices for its potential contribution to the health care of the population, given its immediacy, widespread use, possibility of interaction and increase of the margin of accessibility to health services. The present project aims to demonstrate that multidisciplinary and combined intervention of pharmacological therapies with specific psychological therapies along with the use of mobile digital devices can improve the management and evolution of chronic pain.
