Filter by:The objective of this study is to develop and pilot test a telehealth-based mental health screening and engagement program that supports parents as they transition from the NICU to home. The program will use a stepped-care approach to screen parents for depression, anxiety, and PTSD; provide a brief behavioral intervention to those who screen as having at least a low risk of these conditions; and provide a warm hand-off to community mental health services for those at medium to high risk.
Background: The CPTSD diagnosis presented in the ICD-11 is supposed to provide core and culturally invariant symptoms, which is supported by recent research. Yet, evidence also shows the necessity of integrating culture-specific symptoms in intervention and diagnostic tools to enhance the validity and efficacy of such diagnoses and therapeutic interventions. Along with cultural aspects, there are relevant structural aspects e.g., economic, and social inequalities, which impact mental health. These aspects remain understudied in low middle income countries like Egypt, where there are considerable rates of violence. Aims: The project aims to i) culturally adapt and pilot test the therapeutic manual ESTAIR/MPE in urban Egypt, and ii) to pilot test a cultural and structural module for the diagnostic assessment of CPTSD among the same target population. The objective is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and initial impact on clinical outcomes of both the manual and diagnostic modules. Methods: In earlier phases, the project gathered qualitative data from key informants on the cultural and structural dimensions of CPTSD in urban Egypt. Using the collected data, investigators culturally adapted this intervention and developed a diagnostic cultural module. Subsequently, the investigators will pilot-test it in four groups of five participants each, 20 participants in total. The project intends to collect both quantitative and qualitative measures to explore determined outcomes and analyze them accordingly.
This Randomized Controlled Trial will check the efficacy of Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing vs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Post-Traumatic Stress and Comorbid Disorders in Pakistan
To assess the wear of Zirconia-PEEK versus cobalt-chromium-PEEK telescopic attachments for implant retained complete mandibular overdenture. The wear of Zirconia-PEEK telescopic attachments can affect the retention of implant retained complete mandibular overdenture.
The aim of this study is to investigate the role FKBP5 DNA methylation levels in patients suffering from complex posttraumatic stress disorder, who participated in a 12-weeks disorder-specific DBT-PTSD inpatient treatment. DNA methylation levels were measured before and after completing DBT-PTSD.
The aim of this study is to show that early identification of PTSD and CPTSD would increase recognition of these disorders and facilitate diagnosis, referral and recovery.
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a significant public health challenge with population prevalence rates in the US between 6.1 to 9.2%. There are large racial and socioeconomic inequities in access to PTSD treatment, as up to half (30-50%) of patients in safety net clinical settings meet criteria for PTSD, yet only 13% receive any behavioral health treatment. Workforce shortages are one major barrier to accessing care. Additional barriers to care can include heightened mental health stigma and mistrust of health services. Digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) may be suitable within the continuum of care for PTSD in hospital settings, given their potential for rapid-access, scalability, and the high acceptability of DMHI among individuals with high stigma and social needs. Among the available DMHIs for PTSD, the investigators have selected web-administered Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Regulation (webSTAIR), based on emerging scientific evidence and a close collaboration with Boston Medinal Center (BMC) users (patients and providers) in a previous pilot study in primary care. The aim of this randomized study is to implement webSTAIR at BMC in the Recovery from Stress and Trauma through Outpatient Care, Research, and Education (RESTORE) Center's subspecialty clinic.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about the effectiveness of a prescription wrist-wearable device called NightWare (NW) on improving sleep in Veterans with nightmares related to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The investigators also want to learn whether it improves cardiovascular health among this population.
EMDR is a psychotherapy method utilized for treating psychological traumas, with the Flash technique being one of its quickest and most effective methods. The "Self-Therapy" mobile application, accessible via Apple Store and Google Play, enables users to self-administer the Flash technique, following specific guidelines to help reduce symptoms like depression, anxiety, and stress linked to traumatic memories. Designed for adults over 18, particularly those diagnosed with mental health disorders, it is advised to be used under a psychiatrist's guidance. The application features a virtual guide, an avatar named Therapist Yağmur, who assists users through the process, including relaxation exercises and progress tracking. This allows users to pause and resume therapy as needed. Such applications represent a significant advancement in remote psychological support, potentially increasing access to psychotherapy and fostering societal acceptance of psychological health services.
This open label, within-subjects dose optimization trial will investigate the optimal number of MDMA-Assisted Therapy treatment cycles (i.e., one MDMA session and three integration sessions) in a sample of U.S. veterans with PTSD. Participants will complete from one to five cycles of MDMA-AT.
