Filter by:Controlled, prospective, qualitative and quantitative trial. The goal of this trial is to evaluate the mutual assistance early intervention device efficacy and its impact on insight and personal recovery of participants living with a first psychotic episode. This intervention lasts 5 days with 1 session per day of 1 hour 30 minutes. Three evaluations, before the intervention, after intervention and 1 month after the hospitalization's end.
This study presents the development and validation of a unique Digital Experience Sampling Method (ESM) questionnaire specifically adapted for monitoring changes in the mental state of patients during psychiatric hospitalization. The questionnaire was carefully crafted through focus groups involving patients and clinical staff, ensuring its relevance and applicability to the unique characteristics of mental state changes in a hospitalization setting. To evaluate the validity of the ESM questionnaire, symptom severity trends obtained from the questionnaire will be compared with estimates derived from the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) assessment. Data will be collected from 100 subjects over a 14-day psychiatric hospitalization period. In addition to the ESM questionnaire, smartwatch sensors will monitor physiological indicators. Feasibility and patient compliance will be assessed by examining patients' willingness to use the digital ESM questionnaires and the smartwatch sensors. The study will also cross-reference self-reported sleep quality and activity levels captured in the ESM questionnaires with objective physiological indicators and nursing staff reports, providing insights into the reliability of the patient-reported data. Furthermore, the study will evaluate the impact of the ESM data on clinical decision-making by physicians throughout the 14-day psychiatric hospitalization period. Patient satisfaction and satisfaction among the multidisciplinary team with the monitoring model will also be assessed. This research underscores the potential of digital technologies to enhance patient-centered care and facilitate informed treatment decisions in psychiatric hospitalization settings.
The use of music in the field of cognitive remediation is growing and much research has focused on the relevance and effectiveness of its use in care. Studies have therefore made it possible to show the relevance of the use of musical material in the remediation of patients with various pathologies with cognitive disorders (head trauma, stroke, Alzheimer's disease). Although cognitive remediation has been widely studied in patients with schizophrenia, few studies suggest the effects of remediation in patients with a first psychotic episode. No study currently demonstrates the relevance of this material in the remediation of young people presenting a first psychotic episode. The Mobile Intensive Care Team of the Adult Psychiatry Service of the CHU de Caen (EMSI) takes care of patients who have presented with a first psychotic episode. Young people entering an emerging psychosis frequently exhibit cognitive impairment. These attacks are variable and can concern memory, attentional and executive functioning. The most frequent disorders concern memory functioning and it is important to deal with them early in order to improve the functional prognosis of the young person. We therefore propose the establishment of cognitive remediation groups through the MAO with patients treated by EMSI. These groups would aim to heal memory, attention and executive functions through exercises and musical practice through the Ableton © software. We therefore propose a study that would assess the effects of these workshops on the cognitive functioning of patients with memory difficulties. Attentional and executive functioning as well as self-esteem and negative symptoms will also be assessed. This remedy will be offered in groups of 4. In this feasibility study, 30 patients will be included depending on the inclusion and monitoring capacities of the center. Ten weekly sessions of one hour per group over a period of 3 months will be applied. To assess the beneficial effects of this group remediation, assessments will be carried out at the start of the study and at the end of the 10 sessions. The aim of this study is to assess the effects of an CAM remediation group on cognitive functioning, mood and self-esteem in patients who presented with a first psychotic episode.
The First-Episode Psychosis (FPE) is a severe disorder that can include delusions, cognitive disorders and suicidal behavior. In the majority of cases (more than 80%) it evolves into schizophrenia. Numerous studies show that the rapidity of the initial management of FPE would reduce the risk of negative evolution and would have a decisive impact on the short and long term prognosis. The rapidity of this management can be measured by the duration of untreated psychosis, or DUP (Duration of Untreated Psychosis), the time interval between the appearance of the first frank psychotic symptoms and the initiation of adequate psychiatric care. The objective of this study is to show the impact of an intervention facilitating access to specialized care for PEP on the reduction of DUP. This intervention consists of an early identification program for FPE, the PRESTO program, specifically targeting 3 determining steps in the reduction of DUP: - Informing the general population about psychotic disorders - Knowledge of front line actors (APL: general practitioners, school and university medicine, teenager's house, associative networks educators, emergency services, firefighters, etc.) about FPE and its management - Articulation between APL and specialized psychiatric care
The purpose of the REVIPSY study is to measure retinal and the visual cortical electrophysiological responses in situations at risk of psychosis in patients who have experienced a first psychotic episode. A perspective of this project will be to create new electrophysiological biomarkers predictive of the risk of conversion to psychosis
The study investigators hypothesize that the intervention of case managers specifically trained in case management of early psychosis will change the paradigm of care of a first psychotic episode from the current organization of the care system. Indeed, the creation of specific services for emerging psychotic disorders cannot easily be generalized throughout the country and requires specific funding. The intervention of case managers according to the recommendations of good practices will make it possible to propose the fundamental principles of early intervention to young patients and their families on a large scale throughout the territory, namely: personalized and proactive accompaniment, psycho-education of the pathology and treatments, involvement and support of the families, and support for socio-professional reintegration
Psychosis is a disabling condition that typically has its onset in adolescence and early adulthood. Many young people with psychosis have difficulty navigating services or are reluctant to engage in treatment until their illness becomes an emergency. Consequently, nearly half of all new psychotic disorders are diagnosed in the emergency department (ED). Despite the rationale and evidence for early psychosis intervention (EPI), around half of youth do not access these services. The investigators will use short message service (SMS)/text messaging, a low-cost, low-complexity, youth-friendly approach, to improve transitions in care from the ED and related acute services to EPI services, investigating the intervention's effect on attendance at the first consultation appointment, longer term service engagement, and system-level outcomes. The investigators will also evaluate cost-effectiveness and user perspectives of the intervention.
The study population for this research will include parents and concerned significant others (PCSO) of individuals experiencing recent (past five years) onset of a psychotic disorder (hereafter referred to as individuals with psychosis, "IP") who are not currently engaged with, or at risk for disengagement from, treatment. MILO is a brief and structured intervention that teaches motivational interviewing communication strategies. The initial aim (phase 1) of this pilot study is to evaluate feasibility of the intervention. The secondary aims are to evaluate the effectiveness of MILO for (1) enhancing the engagement of IP with evidence-based treatments and (2) reducing distress among PCSO. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention will be superior to control condition for both enhancing IP engagement with mental health services and reducing PCSO distress.
The main objective of this project is to analyze whether EMDR therapy, as an adjuvant to usual treatment, is effective in reducing post-traumatic stress and psychotic/affective symptoms in patients with a FEP and comorbid psychological trauma associated with first hospital admission and / or previous stressful life event.
The current investigation has been designed to test the feasibility of a mindfulness-based social cognition training (SocialMind) for people with a first episode of psychosis (AGES-Mind Study, NCT03309475). The intervention has been designed by professionals with both formal training and clinical experience in the field of mindfulness and third generation cognitive-behavioral therapies. Main outcomes are recruitment rate, adverse events and treatment adherence, although therapy effects and adjustment to intervention manual are also explored.
