Filter by:Burnout appears to be highly prevalent among oncology nurses, which was a problem not only for the nurses themselves but for the patients for whom they provide care. How to mitigate and prevent burnout and improve nursing performance outcomes is an urgent problem for nursing manager. In a sample of 99 oncology nurses, immunological characteristics were compared to burnout scores. In a randomized trial, 90 oncology nurses suffering burnout were randomized to receive psychological capital intervention or routine psychological care. Participants were assessed before and after treatment using measures of burnout, psychological capital and immunological characteristics.
The primary objective of this trial is to determine whether mindsets sustain the feasibility of taking cold showers over a 3-month period. Secondary objectives are to determine potential effects on physical and mental well-being, sleep quality, skin and hair appearance, perceived illness, and related sickness absences from work.
Primary goal of the research is to determine whether injury/illness occurrence is influenced by the academic, training and competition loads, as well as the overall load (sum of academic/work, training and competition loads) in elite handball athletes To examine whether subjective measures of perceived overall stress correlate with objectively measured levels of stress. Determine the benefits of certain biomarkers to monitor stress, load and injury/illness occurrence in athletes.
There is a need to develop, evaluate, and disseminate self-directed, easily accessible, safe, affordable, and effective psychosocial interventions to people living with cancer (PLWC) post-treatment. Smartphone app-based health interventions are an innovative way to deliver psychosocial cancer-care. The Mindfulness-Based Cancer Survivorship (MBCS) Journey app is a mobile app format of the Mindfulness-based Cancer Recovery program. In the SEAMLESS Study, the investigators aim to evaluate the MBCS Journey app (a 4 week mind-body intervention) in cancer survivors post-treatment. This is a randomized wait-list controlled trial. Participants will either be assigned into the immediate group (will receive intervention immediately after enrollment) or the waitlist group (wait for 3 months before receiving the intervention).
The aim of the study is to describe the feasibility, cultural appropriateness, and acceptability of Trauma-informed Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (TiCBT) to promote community healing and encourage the reintegration of repentant terrorists and their families to avoid reoffending.
"Juego de Llaves" is a universal school-based drug prevention program for adolescents aged 12-15 years. The outcome evaluation is critical to determine the quality of preventive interventions. This protocol describes the full protocol of the evaluation design, instruments, randomization procedure, follow-ups, and primary outcomes. Method: Non-Randomized Control Cluster Trial in a set of Spanish school centers at the compulsory secondary education level, with follow-ups at 12-, 24- and 36-months. Participants will be allocated to an experimental or control (no intervention) group. Using an electronic ad-hoc designed App, a battery of instruments will be used to assess addictive behaviors, sociodemographic variables, school climate and other transdiagnostic psychological variables. A piloting test will be conducted to test the implementation protocol and to calculate the sample size needed for the outcome evaluation. After implementing the program, longitudinal statistical approaches will be used to inform on the intervention efficacy and potential moderators and mediators. There is a lack of effectiveness assessments of school prevention programs, and it is expected that this protocol will expedite the monitoring and ongoing evaluation in prevention.
STEP-COVID (Supporting the Transition to and Engagement in Parenthood during the COVID-19 pandemic) is a manualized group intervention for pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic designed to foster emotion regulation and reflective capacities in participants.
This study is intended to test the feasibility of an integrated cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) skills group for adolescents and young adults at clinical high-risk (CHR) for psychosis. The current study applies a skills group drawing from evidence-based practices (e.g., cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT)) to those at CHR for psychosis. Up to 30 CHR individuals (starting with a minimum of 3 participants, N accounts for attrition as well), aged 13-18, already receiving clinical services within the HOPE team at University of Pittsburgh will be offered a weekly skills group. Data collected on feasibility and outcome measures will occur within 1 month of the start of the group, at the midpoint (approximately 3-4 months after baseline), and at the end of the group (approximately 6-7 months after). Some measures will be collected continuously. Furthermore, measures will be collected after each group by the participants and leaders to assess feasibility. Taken together, the aim of the proposed group intervention is to provide novel insights regarding the utility of a newly developed intervention that integrates both CBT and DBT skills for those at CHR for psychosis.
This study aimed to determine the psychosocial effects of exercise training in patients with rotator cuff tears.
This cluster-randomized hybrid type-II implementation superiority trial will include 14 rural primary care facilities in Madhya Pradesh, which will implement a collaborative depression care packaged based on the WHO mhGAP program. These 14 facilities will be randomized to receive either 'Enhanced Implementation Support' or the existing 'Routine Implementation Support' control condition to determine if Enhanced Implementation Support is superior to Routine Implementation Support for ensuring successful implementation of the depression care package. Enhanced Implementation Support consists of remote coaching support and technical assistance. The primary implementation outcome is the proportion of outpatients screened on the PHQ-2 by facility staff. Secondary implementation outcomes will also be collected, including the number of depression cases identified, number of patients with depression referred to the medical officer, number of patients referred to an accepted treatment intervention (i.e., either antidepressant medication or brief psychological intervention), and number of patients who successfully complete treatment at follow up. Secondary patient outcomes will also be collected from patients enrolled in each arm. Patient-level outcomes include the proportion of patients who achieve remission (defined as PHQ-9<5) at 3-month follow up. Additional patient-level outcomes include symptoms of anxiety and functioning. This trial will develop and test an Enhanced Implementation Support strategy for integrating evidence-based mental health services into primary care facilities. Findings from the trial will inform the need to have external coaching for primary care facilities to meet their depression screening and treatment goals, or if they can achieve these goals via routine system support. This is crucial to inform policymakers, due to severe constraints on mental health budgets for programs in India. Findings can generate insights to inform the scale-up of depression care across other districts in Madhya Pradesh and in India.
