Filter by:Abstract Objective: The research was conducted to determine the effect of the nursing intervention, which was given to patients according to the Roy Adaptation Model, on patients' stress, psychosocial adjustment, and self-care power. Methods: The population of the study, which was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study, consisted of 80 patients receiving outpatient dialysis treatment in the hemodialysis unit of a university hospital. The patients from the population were included in the sample of the study in a randomized manner. The data were collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, the Hemodialysis Stressor Scale, the Self-Care Scale, and the Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale. Results: When the pre-tests between the groups were compared, hygienic self-care power, healthcare orientation, vocational environment, domestic environment, sexual relationships, extended family relations, social environment and total psychosocial adjustment levels changed significantly (p<0.05). When the post-tests were compared between the groups, no significant difference was found only in the mean of the mental state sub-dimension (p>0.05). Conclusion: Interventions made according to the Roy Adaptation Model reduced the stress level of the patients, and increased their self-care power and psychosocial adjustment.

The primary objective with this study is to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of ten weeks of internet delivered prolonged exposure delivered through a digital platform with therapist support. The secondary objective is to investigate preliminary effects of internet delivered prolonged exposure in terms of reducing symptoms of post-traumatic stress, depression and increase quality of life.
Better Together Physician Coaching ("Better Together", or "BT"), a 4-month, web-based positive psychology multimodal coaching program was built to decrease burnout in medical trainees. Here, the investigators seek to understand it's efficacy in male-identifying trainees at the University of Colorado - Aim 1: Implement Better Together in for male-identifying trainees in Graduate Medical Education at the University of Colorado. - Aim 2: Assess outcomes: primary: reduce burnout as measured by the Maslach Burnout Index (goal: 10% relative improvement), and secondary: self-compassion, imposter syndrome, flourishing and moral injury. - Aim 3: Advance the field of coaching in GME through innovation and dissemination of evidence-based approaches to GME trainee wellbeing.
The current study aims to assess the acceptability and feasibility of an adapted version of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Treatment Seeking (CBT-TS) for use with signing Deaf adults. This is a Stage 1A intervention refinement study consisting of a single-arm open pilot trial. Thirty Deaf adults with clinically significant symptoms of alcohol use disorder (AUD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and/or insomnia, who are not currently engaged in treatment will be recruited from across the United States. All subjects will complete a baseline assessment of their behavioral health symptoms, perceptions towards treatment, and intent to seek treatment prior to engaging in the adapted CBT-TS intervention. The primary clinical outcome, assessed at one-month follow-up, will be whether subjects scheduled professional treatment. Secondary outcomes include changes in subjects' perceptions towards treatment, intentions to seek treatment, and symptom severity from baseline. During the one-month, follow-up assessment subjects will also complete a client satisfaction survey and open-ended questions to provide feedback about the CBT-TS intervention.
The objective of this study is to test the efficacy of a Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT) adapted for use with victims of terrorism in Spain who are diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), major depressive disorder and/or anxiety disorders subsequent to direct or indirect exposure to a series of terrorist attacks that occurred 20 years prior to treatment on average. Spanish victims who meet the criteria for long-term posttraumatic stress disorder, major depressive disorder, and/or anxiety disorders related to direct or indirect exposure to terrorist attacks that occurred 20 years ago, on average, will be randomly assigned to 16 weekly sessions of TF-CBT (experimental group) or waiting list control (control group) conditions. Between groups comparisons related to diagnostic rates and posttraumatic, depressive and anxiety symptoms will be made immediately after the intervention. Pre- follow-up comparisons related to diagnostic rates and posttraumatic, depressive, and anxiety symptoms will be carried out for the experimental group. It is hypothesised that participants receiving TF-CBT will have significantly lower diagnostic rates and mean levels of posttraumatic, depressive and anxiety symptoms than the control group immediately after the intervention, and that they will experience significant pre-treatment to 6-month follow-up decreases in diagnostic rates and in posttraumatic, depressive and anxiety symptoms.
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a debilitating psychiatric disorder, which results from exposure to traumatic events. Veterans are more than twice as likely to suffer from PTSD compared to civilians. Current interventions for the treatment of PTSD are evidence-based psychotherapies, such as Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). Therefore, we plan to compare Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) with and without a novel prebiotic bar designed to beneficially modulate the microbiota to determine the utility of this combined approach to positively impact PTSD symptoms. We will conduct a 12-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-sectional trial in veterans with PTSD. Participants will be randomized to receive CPT + prebiotic or CPT + placebo. They will be provided a supply of prebiotic or non prebiotic bars for 12 weeks. At three different time points, participants will complete questionnaires and complete questionnaires and produce a stool sample ( weeks 1,2, and 12). All participants will be recruited from the two-week in-person Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) at the Rush Road Home Program, where they will be receiving CPT.
At the "Métropole Savoie" hospital, to deal with the daily influx of severe patients during the second wave of COVID-19, 23 patients had to be transferred away from their home city and far from their families as part of a medical evacuation (EVASAN). The purpose of the study is to investigate whether there is an association between medical evacuations and the occurrence of psychological disorders such as post-traumatic stress, anxiety or depression occurring within 6 to 10 months in families of evacuated patients. The investigators want to compare the prevalence of psychological disorders in the families of patients evacuated for a serious form of COVID-19 (cases) compared to that of families of patients not evacuated (controls) hospitalized for a serious form of COVID-19.
Many patients suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are resistant to established treatment consisting of psychotherapy. Patients often go years with this debilitating disorder without experiencing sufficient improvement. Approximately 1/3 of patients will drop out of treatment because of psychological burden and overactivation. A novel ketogenic diet treatment could amend established treatment, and potentially upregulate the threshold for exciting neurons in dysfunctional brain regions, mediated through various mechanisms. This may reduce PTSD symptoms, and thus enabling patients to respond to psychological treatment without getting overactivated and unable to process trauma. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether it is possible to carry out a ketogenic diet therapy for patients with PTSD for four weeks.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10 mg of oral administration balovaptan once a day (QD) compared with matching placebo in adults with PTSD.
The main objective of this study is to determine whether remote delivery of written exposure therapy after motor vehicle collision reduces incidence and severity of posttraumatic stress symptoms in high risk individuals. This randomized controlled trial is a pilot study to determine feasibility and potential efficacy. This data can be used to adequately power a larger randomized controlled trial.
