NCT ID: NCT06440200 Enrolling by invitation - Schizophrenia Clinical Trials

Exploring the Health Effects of Group Game-based Activities on Individuals With Chronic Mental Illness

Start date: January 18, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study aims to explore the health effects of group games for patients with chronic mental illness. The goal of this clinical intervention study is to compare the efficacy of group games in two ways (experimental group/ group game-based or control group) to improve the health of patients with chronic mental illness. The main questions it aims to answer are: The efficacy of applying group game-based activities to increase interest and improve the physical fitness of patients with chronic mental illness. Also, the goal of this clinical interventional study is to clarify the positive benefits of psychological and social aspects. Subjects will be asked to complete the questionnaire and physical ability examination after filling out the consent of this study. Participants will be randomly divided into two groups. Participants in the experimental group will accept the group game-based activities for 12 weeks (twice per week, 22 times). In contrast, Participants in the control group will accept the activities the psychiatric day wards and halfway house offer as usual. After 12 weeks of intervention, The Participants in both groups will be asked to fill out the questionnaire and physical ability examination. One month later, Participants in both groups will be asked to fill out the questionnaire and physical ability examination again. The study will last for 4 months. The time points for completing the questionnaire are listed following: Baseline/ pre-intervention test(T1), First post-intervention test (T2, 12 weeks later) and Second post-intervention test (T3, 4 weeks later). The researchers will compare the difference in effectiveness between the two groups.

NCT ID: NCT05861544 Enrolling by invitation - Psychiatry Clinical Trials

NUTRItion-driven Detoxification of OPioid Addicted patiEnts

NUTRIDOPE
Start date: March 23, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The NUTRIDOPE (NUTRItion-driven Detoxification of OPioid addicted patiEnts) study is a clinical trial that aims to investigate the role of pomegranate juice consumption by opioid-addicted patients under buprenorphine and methadone on craving, which is the primary outcome, and other parameters. In detail, fresh pomegranate juice will be administered for 120 days (250 ml, 7 days/week) to the patients and craving as well as other psychosocial (e.g., depression, mood state, quality of life) and biochemical (i.e., blood redox status and inflammation) parameters will be evaluated. It is hypothesized that pomegranate juice will reduce craving probably through the improvement of blood redox and inflammation status. Pomegranate juice, which is the examined nutritional intervention, will be administered to the participants of the experimental group, whereas their counterparts in the control group will not consume any similar beverage as a placebo due to the objective difficulties of making one that will be identical and not separable with the fresh pomegranate juice.

NCT ID: NCT05855720 Recruiting - Mental Health Clinical Trials

Nationwide Uniform Scientific Evaluation of Flexible and Integrated Treatment Projects From 2022 Onwards

EVA64_2
Start date: January 1, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study is an evaluation of flexible and integrated psychiatric care models (according to § 64b of the German Social Code Book V (SGB V)) (FIT) including new FIT projects starting after 2022 and the prolongation of any of 19 already established FIT projects (mainly at German psychiatric hospitals). The central concern of this evaluation is to answer the question whether FIT care offers advantages over standard care. The orientation of model care is a more cross-sectoral provision of services through more flexible psychiatric treatment intensities. However, FIT program structures depend on the individual situation and organization of the FIT hospital together with the participating statutory health insurance (SHI) funds.

NCT ID: NCT05490121 Active, not recruiting - Pediatric ALL Clinical Trials

RISE With Residents

RISE Residents
Start date: August 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Prevention of child maltreatment (CM) remains a public health priority in Canada; approximately one-third of Canadians report exposure to at least one form of CM. Physicians play an important role in recognizing and responding to CM and its associated sequelae. However, increasing evidence indicates that physicians receive insufficient training related to recognizing and responding to CM. CM education is especially pertinent during the pediatric and psychiatry residency period but it remains unclear what the optimal approach is for preparing Canadian physicians with the knowledge and skills to effectively recognize and respond to CM. Those educational interventions that have been evaluated in medical education contexts have comparatively little emphasis on the complex overlap between IPV, children's exposure to IPV, and other forms of CM. The Violence, Evidence, Guidance, Action Project (VEGA) is a novel educational intervention that has the potential to improve the preparation of physicians to be able to effectively recognize and respond to CM in their clinical encounters and takes into account this complex overlap. The purpose of this study is to assess the acceptability and feasibility of a future randomized-controlled trial comparing two approaches to administering the VEGA intervention, facilitator-led or self-directed VEGA and whether/how these approaches can support residents' education. The investigators hypothesize that there will be significant increases in preparedness, knowledge and skills, and self-efficacy to recognize and respond to CM in both the experimental and AC arms from Time 1 (baseline) to Time 2 (immediately after the intervention) and Time 1 (baseline) to Time 3 (3 month follow-up). The investigators also predict that these improvements will be slightly attenuated in the experimental arm. Qualitative data pertaining to perceived value and impact will corroborate the quantitative findings.

NCT ID: NCT04958460 Completed - ADHD Clinical Trials

Effect of Probiotics on ADHD

Start date: May 14, 2020
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common neurodevelopmental disorder. Gut microbiome dysbiosis may be associated with the pathophysiology of ADHD. Investigators previously found the relative abundance of Sutterella stercoricanis were increased and Bifidobacterium bifidum were decreased in the ADHD group. Investigators hypothesize that ADHD patients receiving supplementary Bifidobacterium bifidum (Bf-688) is able to increase the proportion of Bf-688; inhibit the proportion of Sutterella; and improve ADHD symptoms.

NCT ID: NCT04346303 Recruiting - Nursing Clinical Trials

Applying Short-term Interactive Video Games on Community Patients With Mental Disorders

Start date: March 16, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to design prospective experiments before and after the test. The purpose is to explore whether short-term interactive video games can improve the motivation, interpersonal interaction, and physical and mental health of patients with mental illness in community rehabilitation homes. Samples of mentally ill patients from community rehabilitation homes (full-day rehabilitation institutions) in the northern region were collected using a structured questionnaire for the recipients, as follows: 1. Collect basic information through a structured questionnaire, which includes basic information, disease status, life style and other related information. 2. Three data collections were performed, namely the baseline period (T0) and the pre-program (T1) two weeks later. Three weeks of intervention activities were provided twice a week, followed by a post-test ( post-program, T2). 3. After a total of six times mentioned above, each 60 minutes of interactive video game intervention, the patient completed the activity feedback form, reflecting the feelings and feedback of participating in the activity.

NCT ID: NCT04243226 Recruiting - Cardiology Clinical Trials

Effects of Aerobic Exercise on Cognition,Cerebral Brain Flow and Mental Health Among Traumatic Brain Injury Patients

Start date: January 1, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this study is to develop exercise prescription of TBI patients and then to evaluate the effectiveness of programmed aerobic walking exercise to improve cognitive performance, depression relief, motivation, symptom, resilience and quality of life with improvement of CBF. This will be a randomized controlled clinical trial, using a mixed method to explore the feasibility and validity of such a safety exercise prescription. Then, a randomized clinical control trial will be applied in TBI patients to evaluate the effectiveness of programmed aerobic exercise to promote psysical-psycho-social health such as cognitive status, 6 minutes walk test, depression relief, motivation, symptom, resilience and quality of life.

NCT ID: NCT03745235 Recruiting - Mindfulness Clinical Trials

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.

NCT ID: NCT03309670 Recruiting - Psychiatry Clinical Trials

Psychiatric Future of Young Patients Hospitalized in the Pass'Aje Service Between 2006 and 2010

After Pass'Aje
Start date: September 14, 2017
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The emergence of adult psychic disorders occurs in about three quarters of cases before 25 years. The Pass-Aje service of Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital is a psychiatric unit specializing in the management of disorders of young adults. This unit evaluates the first episodes among the diversity of the clinical presentations of the psychic disorders. Suicidal attempts or ideations account for a large part of the reasons for entering the unit and are found transversely in many disorders. Among the reasons for hospitalization are a wide variety of situations that are not initially associated with an accurate diagnosis such as withdrawal, de-schooling, runaways, behavioral disorders (disorders of social interactions, self and hetero aggression, eating disorders). Investigator propose to study the psychiatric outcome of hospitalized patients in the Pass-Aje unit and their psychosocial evolution in order to compare them with the data of the general population and to identify the factors influencing their future.

NCT ID: NCT03182283 Completed - Psychosis Clinical Trials

Person-Centered Psychosis Care: An Educational Intervention

PCPC
Start date: April 25, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Schizophrenia is a major mental illness that presents in young adulthood and affects ~1% of the population. Impact on affected persons life is often major and life expectancy is reduced by ~20 years. Better and more effective care models are needed to increase health in these persons. Person-centered care have been suggested to be one way to increase efficiency in care delivery for patients with chronical and complex conditions. The impact of person-centered care on a inpatient psychosis care setting is now being tested. The purpose of this study is to test whether inpatient Person-centered psychosis care (PCPC) can 1. increase patient empowerment 2. improve patient satisfaction 3. reduce the frequency of involuntary treatments 4. reduce the duration of inpatient care and 5. reduce overall ward burden A further purpose is to qualitatively explore which components in this complex intervention are experienced as facilitators or barriers to the achievement of good care, from both patient, next-of-kin and staff perspectives. Quantitative data is collected through questionnaires from patients (measuring empowerment, care satisfaction and perceived health) before and after an educational intervention for staff, along with ward level measures such as care burden, number of involuntary treatments and length of stay on ward. Qualitative interview is used to study experiences of patients, next-of-kin and staff.
