Filter by:This research aims to compare the efficacy of these two interventions, thereby addressing a critical gap in current therapeutic approaches. The rationale for this study is rooted in the existing evidence supporting non-pharmacological and pharmacological interventions for RLS, yet the comparative efficacy remains underexplored.
Behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) such as anxiety, depression, psychosis and agitation, are prevalent, often treatment resistant, resource demanding and significantly deteriorates cognition, independency, quality of life and mortality in people with dementia. The DARK.DEM trial aims at developing new diagnostics and treatment for BPSD in both specialized and municipal dementia care. The investigators will develop digital phenotyping by determining the convergent validity of data from a smartwatch against established psychometric scales for BPSD for patients admitted to NKS Olaviken gerontopsychiatric hospital. The investigators will conduct an open label single blinded randomized controlled trial to determine the effectiveness, feasibility and safety of virtual darkness as adjunctive treatment of agitation in patients with dementia admitted to the hospital. The investigators will randomize minimum 72 patients to treatment as usual (psychotropic drugs, psychological and environmental interventions) or 14 days of virtual darkness therapy, that is, exposure to light deprived of blue wavelengths from 19.00-08.00, provided in a secluded patient unit with circadian lightening. Primary outcome is 14 days change in agitation assessed with Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory. Secondary outcomes are change in diurnal variation of motor activity assessed with a smartwatch, other BPSD, activities of daily living, quality of life, use of psychotropic drugs, use of restraints and coercion, length of hospital stay and resource utilization. The investigators will conduct focus group interviews with managers and staff in nursing homes to explore barriers, enablers and adaptions to support implementation of the new methods in municipal dementia care
This is a randomized, prospective, double-blinded (patient and outcome-assessor) trial. Our goal is to assess efficacy of Bridge Therapy (versus sham bridge therapy) to prevent emergence agitation following general anesthesia. Primary Objective: Activation of Bridge Therapy from the time of the pre incision "time out" until 24 hours after admission to the PACU (Post Anesthesia Care Unit) is associated with reduced frequency and intensity of emergence agitation. Secondary Objective: Bridge Therapy activation will also result in a lower incidence of rescue pharmacologic treatment of agitation. Tertiary Objective: Activation of Bridge Therapy during a stable anesthetic state is associated with a reduced Patient State Index as measured on Sedline
Investigate the prevalence of PADIS in EICU, as well as the awareness and clinical implementation status of medical staff towards PADIS. The investigators conducted a multicenter cross-sectional survey in mainland China, including a one-day point prevalence investigation and a questionnaire survey. The inclusion criteria encompassed all adult patients admitted to the participating emergency department intensive care units (EDICUs) during the on-site screening, while exclusion criteria comprised patients aged less than 18 years, EDICU stays duration less than 24 hours before the screening, and participation in other concurrent trials. Hospital and nursing records from the 24 hours preceding enrollment were examined to document the assessment rate of pain, agitation-sedation, and delirium. Physicians and nurses on duty 24 hours before the patients' enrollment was invited to complete the questionnaire survey regarding the ICU profiles, professional expertise, assessment and treatment of PAD, early mobilization, and sleep improvement practices.
Emergence agitation; generally refers to a situation that may occur after a surgical intervention or anesthesia. This situation describes the irritability and agitation of the patient during the recovery process and the period of recovery from anesthesia. Recovery agitation may occur when the patient begins to recover and is usually a short-term condition. It resolves spontaneously. However, in some cases, this agitation may be more pronounced and disturbing. This may affect the patient's condition and relaxation. Rapid recovery from anesthesia in the clinic is also a risk factor for agitation. When the literature is examined, there are not enough studies on Bis suppression ratio and its relationship with recovery agitation is not yet known enough. For this purpose, our study aimed to question this relationship.
Investigating Tiobec® 400's efficacy in alleviating Restless Legs Syndrome symptoms sheds light on promising therapeutic avenues.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare Propofol versus Dexmedetomidine in children undergoing squint surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: • Which drug is more effective in preventing the appearance of Emergence Agitation in children after sevoflurane anesthesia in squint surgery, propofol or dexmedetomidine? Emergence agitation (EA) is a period of restlessness, agitation, inconsolable crying, disorientation, delusions, and hallucinations with impaired cognition and memory that commonly occurs in children undergoing ophthalmic surgery especially after Short acting volatile agents such as sevoflurane.
Restless Leg Syndrome, a progressive and recurrent chronic sensorimotor disorder that creates an irresistible urge to move the legs and a feeling of discomfort, is seen in 15.4-26.0% of pregnant women in our country. Restless Leg Syndrome has negative effects on sleep, mood, cognitive health, daily activities and behavior in pregnant women; It can also cause preeclampsia, difficult labor, and cesarean delivery. Therefore, it is important for pregnant women with Restless Leg Syndrome to be treated appropriately. It is recommended that pregnant women use non-pharmacological treatments as they are not risky for fetal health. Kinesio taping and manual lymphatic drainage methods are used non-pharmacologically to support venous-lymphatic drainage and manage pain. These methods are economical, reliable and easy to apply. However, no study has been found in which Kinesio taping or manual lymphatic drainage was applied to a patient group with Restless Leg Syndrome during or outside pregnancy. The aim of this project is to determine the effect of Kinesio taping and manual lymphatic drainage on Restless Legs Syndrome severity, sleep quality and psychological well-being in pregnant women with Restless Legs Syndrome.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare Efficacy of low dose propofol(0.5 mg/kg) vs placebo given at the end of sevoflurane anesthesia for prevention of emergence agitation in pediatric patient undergoing MRI scan. The main question it aims to answer is "Can low dose propofol reduce the incidence of emergence agitation after general anesthesia?" Participants will be given propofol 0.5 mg/kg or saline according to the allocated group at the completion of MRI scan
Recovery and emergence agitation is a problem that occurs after anesthesia and requires urgent intervention. The effects of changes in EEG waves during anesthesia or undesirable deep periods in Bispectral index (BIS) monitoring on recovery agitation are the subject of this research.
