Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate an educational professional development program designed to assist health care professionals in developing self-awareness and self-care choices as a means to avoid compassion fatigue and improve resilience.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of the psychological triaging intervention (PTI) on the psychological distress and resilience capacity levels among the intern-nursing students during the COVID-19 crisis. Research Hypothesis Intern-nursing students who attend PTI exhibit lower COVID-19 related psychological distress level and higher resilience capacity than those who receive routine psychological support.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the #LIFEGOALS intervention for promoting mental health in early adolescents.
The approach of this intended research is to help pregnant women practice constructive coping and proactive skills that focus on positive adaptation for safe motherhood through our developed intervention. The objective of this two phases Randomized Control Trial is to develop contextually based "SM-ART" intervention [Safe Motherhood ART: Accessible Resilience Training] and evaluate the effectiveness of "SM-ART" intervention in a sample of pregnant women living in low socioeconomic urban areas of Karachi, Pakistan. It is hypothesized that the SM-ART intervention will enhance resilience and marital harmony and decrease symptoms of depression, anxiety in pregnant women.
The aim of this randomized, waitlist controlled trial is to examine the efficacy of the Compassion Cultivation Training (CCT©) in reducing psychological distress (i.e., stress, anxiety and depression) and burnout symptoms while improving psychological well-being medical students. The second goal of the study is to examine whether mindfulness and compassion-related variables as well as emotional-cognitive emotional regulation processes mediate the psychological distress and well-being changes. The effects of the CCT© program will be measured by means of self-report questionnaires involving different domains (mindfulness, compassion, distress, and well-being measures) at different time points (pre-intervention, inter-session assessment, post-intervention, 2-month and 6-month follow-up).
Evaluating a wellness program developed to provide effective sustainable solutions for medical professionals providing care to COVID-19 pandemic patients.
Burnout is a common problem for medical students and is associated with stress-related health problems and also potentially affects the quality of care delivered to their patients. Among the health problems commonly associated with burnout are substance use problems, and alcohol is the substance most often misused. The purpose of the evaluation is to document whether an educational intervention incorporating aspects of virtual reality (VR) via a 3D online simulation experience prevents or improves the primary endpoint of burnout and the secondary endpoints of burnout-related factors in medical students. The investigators will also will evaluate student satisfaction with the intervention to determine if it meets our standard of success. The hypothesis is that the intervention will improve the primary clinical endpoint of burnout from pre-intervention to post-intervention as measured by the Maslach Burnout Inventory, a validated inventory that is widely used to measure burnout. The related factors that will be measured as secondary clinical endpoints include quality of life, substance use (alcohol and drugs), depression, and resilience. Due to evidence that these endpoints are linked to burnout, the investigators also hypothesize that the measures will improve pre- to post-intervention. Satisfaction of the target audience after completing the simulation intervention will also be evaluated. The evaluation will be prior to and after use of the simulation by medical student participants, using a pre-/post intervention, wait-list control, parallel design.
The study evaluates the effectiveness of yoga practices on reducing stress, negative emotion, anxiety, and depression and on increasing positive emotion, wellbeing and resilience. The study uses randomized wait-list control. All U.S. undergraduate students in 4-year universities and colleges age 18 or older are eligible to participate.
Background Definitions of resilience vary according to the context in which it is discussed. It is often considered from the perspective of the individual. Connor & Davidsondescribe it as "the personal qualities that enable an individual to thrive in the face of adversity". Various studies have now shown a link between individual resilience and various mental health outcomes such as burnout, secondary traumatic stress, depression, and anxiety. In a systematic review by Fox et al., 22 studies explicitly stated an aim of improving physician resilience. However, there was a lack of consensus concerning the conceptual understanding of resilience with low methodological rigour of the included studies. Research Questions 1. What effect will an evidence-based resilience building intervention have on levels of resilience, stress and subjective happiness in Department of Medicine Faculty at the University of Ottawa? 2. How might implementation of an evidence-based resilience building intervention on Department of Medicine faculty, lead to the development of a community of practice for physician wellness in the Department of Medicine at The Ottawa Hospital/University of Ottawa? Methods All academic physicians in the Department of Medicine, University of Ottawa were invited to participate. We recruited 40 participants in total, randomized to either the ACTIVE or CONTROL groups. Workshop ACTIVE participants (Group A) attended a 2-hour Stress Management and Resiliency Training (SMART) program developed by the Mayo Clinic. CONTROL (Group B) participants did not attend this training. Questionnaires Both Group A & B completed questionnaires on resilience, perceived stress, anxiety and happiness at 0 weeks (pre-training) and 12 and 24-weeks post training. E-learning support Following completion of the 2-hour workshop, Group A participants were enrolled in an online e-learning support program on a website developed by the Mayo Clinic. The aim of this was to support and reinforce the messages and techniques delivered in the 2-hour workshop. Participants were invited to participate for either 12 or 24 weeks. Focus groups Group A participants were invited to join a focus group 12 weeks after the workshop was run. These focus groups explored themes of resilience, stress, and burnout. Analysis of Results Quantitative (Questionnaires): For each measurement scale, the change from baseline will be compared between groups (Active Arm and Control Arm) using the two-sample t-test. To supplement these analyses, the within-group change (baseline vs week 4/12/24) will be assessed for the Active Arm using the paired t-test. A sample size of 40 was selected for this study after weighing statistical considerations along with logistical and resource constraints. In general, for a continuous outcome variable, a sample size of 40 provides statistical power (two-tailed, alpha=0.05) of >85% to detect a difference of 1 standard deviation between groups. Qualitative (Focus Groups): Constructivist grounded theory informed the iterative data collection and analysis process. Transcripts were analysed using a three-staged process of initial, focused, and theoretical coding. Themes will be identified using constant comparative analysis and grouped to look at the interrelationship of categories.
The purpose of this study is to examine underlying physical resilience (the ability to bounce back) in response to a specific stressor (total knee replacement).
