Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the rate of re-hospitalizations in relation to a disruptive behaviour disorder (at 3 and 6 months) between patients who have received care in Cognitive Behavioural Unity (UCC ) and those who have received care in Geriatric Follow-up and Rehabilitation Care Unit (SSR).
This study will implement a comprehensive outpatient stewardship program targeting a large network of Urgent Care (UC) clinics within Intermountain Helathcare.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate early implementation outcomes of a positive parenting program, Child Adult Relationship Enhancement in Primary Care (PriCARE), in the foster care setting and to assess the efficacy of PriCARE in promoting positive parenting and increasing empathy among foster caregivers.
This research study is designed to look at the involvement of the glutamate system and synaptic density in depression and bipolar disorder. Each participant will undergo a screening appointment to determine study eligibility. Thereafter, the study will take 2 or 3 visits depending on schedule availability and will consist of a combination of one magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scan, one proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and/or one C13 MRS scans, and up to two positron emission tomography (PET) scans. Participants will also participate in cognitive testing. Depending on camera time, staff availability and subject schedule, total study participation may last 1-2 months.
the investigators will measure source-monitoring ability in patients with several neuropsychiatric condition and in healthy controls appaired in age, sex and educational level. Source-monitoring will be measured thanks to internal- and reality-monitoring informatic tasks.The investigators hypothesized patients with fronto-temporal abnormalities would show more marked deficits than patients with only frontal abnormalities.
Pakistani studies report non-adherence to self-management by type 1 diabetes (T1D) patients, and episodes of hypoglycemia and ketoacidosis as acute complications. Self-management guidelines include maintenance of logbooks for blood glucose, physical activity, and dietary intake, that affect glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) and acute complications. The proposed study will evaluate whether mobile messaging for maintaining log books for blood glucose or e-device use for step count will modify HbA1c levels to be examined at three and six months after enrollment. In addition, episodes of acute complications and blood glucose variability will be correlated with daily log book maintenance and step counts.
In this TARGet Kids! Study, we want to find out whether a short questionnaire can be used to help find out about mental health problems in preschool age children.
Agitation and aggression impose a tremendous burden on the individuals living with dementia, their families, caregivers, and healthcare systems. Neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia (NPS) affect up to 80% of patients with Alzheimer's dementia (AD). The mechanisms of agitation in AD are poorly understood and the current interventions are only modestly effective while having serious adverse effects. In this study, the investigators propose to assess the mechanisms and treatment of neuropsychiatric symptoms in AD with the use of non-invasive, brain stimulation approaches. By applying magnetic stimulation to the surface of the head (transcranial magnetic stimulation - TMS) combined with electroencephalography (EEG), the investigators will be able to study the mechanisms of agitation and advance our understanding of AD. Further, the investigators will evaluate if transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is effective to treat agitation dementia.
This study will evaluate a low-cost, low-intensity, computer-based model for delivering parenting skills to parents of adolescents in a community mental health clinic. This intervention has the potential to improve public health and community practice by making empirically-supported treatment techniques more available. We believe this approach will improve the efficiency of treatment delivery by integrating computerized and therapist delivered approaches, and there is potential for significant improvements in efficacy of parent training with this model.
The objective of this project is to study the influence of mindfulness meditation on psychological health (stress level, affects, emotions) and physical health parameters (rate of inflammatory markers in the blood, activity of white blood cells involved in immuno-inflammation) in caregivers of people with psychiatric disorders. This study will provide the objective scientific data required for the development of mindfulness meditation programs for psychiatric caregivers. 80 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the following two groups: - 40 participants in the "Mindfulness" group who will attend mindfulness meditation sessions in addition to their standard follow-up - 40 participants in the "Control" group who will have a standard follow-up The duration of participation is 12 months and includes 3 visits and 8 mindfulness-based meditation sessions for the "Mindfulness" group.
