Filter by:An association of fatigue with post-viral neuropsychological disturbs has been reported. Among patients hospitalized with COVID-19 there is an increased incidence of anxiety and depression symptoms. In addition, a quarter of patients experience at least mild symptoms of acute post traumatic stress disorder. (Mazza, M. G. et al 2020). The prevalence of chronic fatigue syndrome had a correlation with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in a study conducted after the outbreak of the COVID-19 in Iran (Silmani et al, 2021), that showed 5.8% of subjects suffering from PTSD after 6 months of SARS-CoV-2 infection onset. In this Study we propose to use a tool to quantify the degree of physical and psychological fatigue in post-COVID-19 patients, and assess the correlation of fatigue with the neuropsychiatric sequelae in hospitalized and non hospitalized patients.
One third of mothers rate their childbirth as traumatic. The prevalence of childbirth-related posttraumatic stress disorder (CB-PTSD) is of 4.7% and the prevalence of childbirth-related posttraumatic stress symptoms (CB-PTSS) of 12.3%. Skin-to-skin contact is a protective factor against CB-PTSD. However, during a caesarean section (CS), skin-to-skin contact is not always feasible and mothers and infants are often separated. In those cases, there is no validated and available solution to substitute this unique protective factor. Based on the results observed in studies using virtual reality (VR) and head-mounted displays (HMDs) and studies on childbirth experience, we hypothesize that enabling the mother to have a visual and auditory contact with her baby could improve her childbirth experience whilst she and her baby are separated. To facilitate this connection, we will use a 2D 360° camera filming the baby linked securely to a head-mounted device (HMD) that the mother can wear during the end of the surgery.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of the Sana Device when added to Treatment as Usual in participants with a diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Norwegian child and advocacy centers´ core activities include both forensic services (e.g., forensic interviews) and follow-up services (e.g., treatment), aiming to coordinate the different services involved in each case to prevent additional burdens for youth in already vulnerable situations. However, a recent study indicates that very few receive follow-up after the forensic interview and that the follow-up in most cases includes one-time or occasional support and only in rare cases treatment. In the same study, youth receiving follow-up in the CAC in Oslo revealed significantly higher levels of common mental health problems than a comparable community sample, yet lower than clinical samples, indicating that many youths in CACs may be falling between different services within the health care system, not necessarily receiving the help they need elsewhere. The current project will investigate four issues related to these knowledge needs; 1. How do children and parents experience receiving trauma treatment at child advocacy centers? 2. What predicts treatment effects? 3. What is the prevalence of symptoms of burnout and secondary traumatic stress among employees working in child advocacy centers, and can training in evidence-based treatment prevent burnout and secondary traumatic stress?
The Safety and Tolerability of COMP360 in Participants with Post-traumatic Stress Disorder
This is a prospective, clinical pilot study (n=20) to evaluate the impact of a ketamine treatment for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) on epigenetic aging by the TruAge epigenetic age laboratory test.
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with a marked tendency to have exaggerated and persistent negative beliefs and expectations about oneself or the world . Although posttraumatic stress symptoms have been shown to be associated with a tendency to negatively anticipate the future, affective forecasting skills (i.e., the ability to predict one's own emotional reactions in response to a future event) have never been explored in PTSD . The hypothesis that the PTSD is associated with a negative affective forecasting bias, characterized by a tendency to predict more intense emotional responses to future negative events.
The Vedic Counselling is the whole person approach, system of total life style counselling based on 'Vedic Laws of right living, right actions, right relationship and right awareness'.Vedic Counselling was developed as trauma focused therapy for this study to treat female victims of domestic abuse.
This trial is comprised of a 4-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period followed by an optional 8-week open-label extension (OLE) period. This trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral PRAX-114 flexibly dosed at 40 to 60 mg for 4 weeks compared to placebo in adults with PTSD. The OLE period consisting of treatment with 40 mg PRAX-114 for 8 weeks will provide additional efficacy and safety data.
First Responders, or Public Safety Personnel (PSP), play a key role in protecting the health and safety of Canadians, yet this important work can take a toll on their mental health, leading to an elevated risk of post-traumatic stress injury (PTSI). Mobile health approaches are a promising tool to facilitate access to confidential on-demand mental health support both when and where it is needed. There are gaps, however, in evidence to support the use of m-health apps, particularly in relation to implementation in the PSP community. The overall purpose of this prospective cohort implementation study is to explore how OnCall, a new mobile health peer-to-peer support application for Public Safety Personnel (PSP) affects peer support help-outreach in the workplace. Implementation and impact will be tracked over 6-month period in a purposive sample of 6-8 different PSP organizations across Canada. Study findings will inform recommendations for optimizing implementation of the m-health platform with employees in other PSP organisations.
