Filter by:The SMART app is a mobile application based psychosocial parenting intervention containing educational materials (articles, videos, audios, podcasts) on parenting, an integrated peer support chat function with experienced mothers and an integrated forum for interaction with other mother participants. The goal of this interventional study is to test the effectiveness of a mobile-app health based intervention, SMART, mothers in the perinatal period. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. What is the effect of a mobile-based health intervention, SMART, on maternal outcomes? 2. What is the effect of a mobile-based health intervention, SMART, on infant outcomes? 3. What is the cost-effectiveness of using SMART as compared to standard routine care? Researchers will compare results with a control group that will undergo standard routine care.
The goal of this methodological study is to determine the reliability and validity of the The Breathlessness Beliefs Questionnaire Caregiver Version (BBQ-C) version in assessing dysfunctional breathlessness beliefs in caregivers of children with cystic fibrosis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about how parent training can be used to teach a social skills intervention for their young child with developmental delays. Video modeling is a type of technology based intervention that teaches new skills using videos of someone acting out the behavior. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How well do the parent training procedures teach parents all the steps for using video modeling as a social skills intervention? - Do the children with developmental delays play and communicate more with their parents after the parent uses video modeling as a social skills intervention? Parent participants will be asked to participate in 3 interviews 30 min to 1 hour each, 2 in-home sessions 1 ½ to 2 hours each, 30 min Zoom sessions 2-3 times per week for 2-5 months Child participants will participate in 2 in-home sessions 1 ½ to 2 hours each and 30 min Zoom sessions 2-3 times per week for 2-5 months The time commitment is in ideal conditions, but will be impacted by other participants and parent schedules. The family will be committing to approximately 2-5 hours per week for 2-5 months. Sessions may occur as few as 0 or as many as 5 times per week. The hypothesis is that the parent training will teach parents all the steps to use video modeling intervention in their home with their young child with a disability. The second hypothesis is that the child with a disability will learn new social skills to play and communicate better in their home with their parent after watching the video models.
In 2019, the World Health Organization established new guidelines for physical activity, sedentary screen time, and sleep for children under 5 years old. Unfortunately, only a few (6%) of preschoolers in Flanders, Belgium, adhere to these guidelines. The aim of this study is to test a health program developed to optimize 24-hour behaviors in preschoolers and encourage more children to follow the guidelines. The program was created using the Intervention Mapping Protocol in collaboration with parents. It consists of seven sessions for parents and preschoolers, providing strategies to encourage compliance with the guidelines. The program's effectiveness will be evaluated through a randomized controlled trial, with the intervention group attending the sessions and the control group receiving the intervention materials at the end of the study.
Parents of children with food allergies that are medically established will be randomized to participate either in 6 one-hour weekly virtual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) groups or to a wait-list group, and outcomes will be measured for anxiety, depression and quality of life. Possible benefits include improvement in psychological functioning and quality of life of families, as well as improved understanding of the use of group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for parents of children with medically established food allergies.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn which types of telehealth-based treatments best fit the needs of caregivers of people with rare neurogenetic conditions. The main questions it plans to answer are: - Which telehealth support programs best meet the needs of rare disorder caregivers? - How can individuals be matched to support programs that are right for them? What aspects of an individual (e.g., demographics, mental health symptoms, family characteristics, lifestyle) predict whether treatment will be a good fit? - Does peer-to-peer coaching help improve patients' experiences during telehealth treatment? Participants will be asked to complete a 12-week treatment program, which may include self-guided resources, individual therapies, group therapies, and/or peer-to-peer coaching. Before, during, and after treatment, participants will complete questionnaires to help researchers understand their experiences, symptoms, and impressions of their support program. Questionnaires will include both standard forms (administered up to 5 times throughout the study) and brief "snapshot surveys" that participants complete on their smartphones up to 3 times per day. Some participants will be assigned to a waitlist control, which means that they will provide data while they are not yet completing a support program. These participants will be assigned to a support program in the next treatment phase.
The proposed study aims to determine the feasibility of the procedures for a future full randomized controlled trial (RCT), which will test the efficacy of a parent-child yoga intervention in reducing attention deficits in children with congenital heart disease (CHD). Specific aims of this single-blind, two-arm, two-center feasibility trial are to evaluate recruitment rates and capacity, withdrawal and dropout rates, adherence to the intervention, acceptability of the randomization process by families, variation in delivery of the intervention between yoga instructors, and standard deviation of main outcomes of the future RCT in order to determine its appropriate sample size. This feasibility study will lead to the first ever RCT to test the efficacy of an intervention strategy for reducing attention deficits in children with CHD. Ultimately, the implementation of this parent-child yoga program will lead to better long-term academic and psychosocial functioning and quality of life for these children and their family.
The Evelina London Children's Hospital (ELCH) is planning to integrate care for children with special health care needs (CSHCN) using a package of support, including 1) family support workers to manage care coordination and support parents, and 2) 'navigation' packs outlining key services, for both the services users and providers. This study aims to explore the views and experiences of key stakeholders involved with these services, including the parents/caregivers of CSHCN, and professionals/staff team members. These will be explored using semi-structured qualitative interviews.
A lot of observationnal studies describe parental stressors in PICU/PCICU, but none studied, prospectively, the links between medical equipment removal/insertion and anxiety modulation. The primary objective is to identify the impact of medical equipment removal/insertion on the STAI-Y score (anxiety) The secondary objective is to identify the parental anxiety determinant (via VAS).
The goal of this randomised study is to learn about, the effect of hypnotherapeutic sound-files on the sleep of parents of infants in the neonatal unit. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can hypnotherapeutic sound-files make parents of infants in the neonatal unit sleep longer and better? - Does hypnotherapeutic sound-files effect the state anxiety score of parents of infants in the neonatal unit? Participants will have access to sound-files and: - wear actigraphy sleep registration - complete state-trait anxiety score
