Filter by:The COVID-19 pandemic represents the most serious global health threat since the Spanish influenza, with repercussions on physical and mental health. The balance between physical and mental state is essential when establishing treatment for a critically ill patient and must be taken into account by health professionals. Therefore, the investigators hypothesize that there is an association between the severity of the clinical picture of COVID-19 and psychiatric morbidity. Objective. Associate the severity of the clinical picture of COVID-19 with psychiatric morbidity. Material and method. Hospitalized participants in the COVID respiratory area at the General Hospital of the Zone will be included. # 51 of Gómez Palacio, Dgo. in the period from October 1, 2021 to March 31, 2022. This is an epidemiological, observational, prospective, longitudinal, analytical study. Sociodemographic, clinical and psychiatric evaluation data will be obtained using GMHAT / PC. A statistical analysis will be carried out using descriptive statistics (frequencies, measures of central tendency and dispersion) and analytical, to evaluate the association (Chi2) and to evaluate the effect of the intervening variables (binary logistic regression and multivariate regression). The data will be analyzed in the SPSS version 21 program.
Background: The operating room (OR) environment presents specific conditions that put stress on work dynamics. Disruptive behavior (DB) among members of the health team is recognized to affect work dynamics and patient outcomes. The objective was to explore the perceptions of different members of the health team, including surgeons, about the occurrence of DB and the work dynamics in the OR. Study design: Qualitative exploratory study, based on semi structured individual interviews. Twenty participants were sampled until data saturation, including surgeons, anesthetists, nurses among other. Data extraction from verbatim transcriptions was performed by investigators via qualitative analysis software, using grounded theory framework.
Child and adolescent behavioral health problems are related to the leading causes of youth morbidity and mortality. Parent-focused preventive interventions, such as GenerationPMTO (GenPMTO), effectively prevent behavioral health problems such as depression and conduct disorders. Unfortunately, parenting programs are not widely available nor well-attended. Pediatric primary care (PC) is a non-stigmatizing setting with nearly universal reach and, therefore, an ideal access point to increase availability. However, PC personnel are not trained to address behavioral health topics. Also, typical referral practices are inadequate. There is a need to develop effective referral practices in conjunction with increasing availability. There are also logistical barriers to attending in-person parenting programs, like the need for childcare and a large time-commitment. There is a need to overcome these logistical barriers with more accessible programs. The long-term goal is to prevent significant behavioral health problems by increasing access to GenPMTO.
In order to support the development of preschool children, joint attention training with activities incorporated in their natural routines can support the achievement of occupational therapy goals. This study explores the adjunctive benefit of a joint attention-based occupational therapy program offered in addition to the usual special education program (USEP) compared to USEP alone. The present study was designed as a randomized controlled study, including pre-post testing. The Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ), Autism Behaviour Checklist (ABC), and A Motor-Free Visual Perception Test 4 (MVPT-4) were implemented to measure the participants' conditions before and after the intervention.
This is an assessor-blinded, randomized controlled trial. A total of 110 women victims of domestic violence aged 18-65 years will be recruited from local community centers and domestic violence shelters (refugee centers). They will be randomly assigned to routine care combined with (n = 55) and without (n = 55) additional acupuncture (TEAS+DCEAS) for 12 weeks. Acupuncture therapy will be conducted with 2 DCEAS sessions at clinics and 3 TEAS sessions at home each week. The primary outcome is the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) for depression. Secondary outcomes include the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17) for depression, Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) for stress, PTSD Check List-Civilian Version (PCL-C) for PTSD symptoms, Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) for sleep and 12-Item Short Form Survey (SF-12) for quality of life. Two 10-ml blood samples will be drawn respectively at baseline and at the end of 12-week study. A generalized linear mixed-effect model will be applied to compare treatment outcomes over time in the two groups and linear regression will be conducted to examine inter-correlations among clinical improvement and changes in biomarker levels.
This study aims to analyze which cognitive training experimental condition - Tablet versus Kinect - results in greater cognitive, mood, quality of life, and functional gains in a sample of chronic psychiatric patients.
Maternal depression influences the development of children's behavior problems and vice versa; however most interventions singularly address maternal depression or children's behavior problems rather than both. This project assesses the efficacy of an intervention that treats both mothers and children in an integrated manner. Effects are expected to disrupt the reciprocal relations that perpetuate maternal and child mental health problems over time.
The proposed three-year pilot randomized trial aims to test the effectiveness of the newly-redesigned paraeducator-delivered RUBI for use in Educational Settings (RUBIES) intervention compared to usual care training in reducing disruptive behavior in 80 elementary-school children with ASD. Given the critical need to understand not just whether, but also how interventions work, this study also will examine paraeducator- and child-level mechanistic pathways of the RUBIES intervention.
The investigators are planning to diagnose psychiatric disorders in willing participants from the refugee population in Turkey.
This is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluation of the Teen Council program that was tested with high school students (grades 10-12) to assess whether it results in a reduction of teen pregnancy among other outcomes.
