Filter by:The research will be conducted experimentally in the form of randomized controlled studies to determine the effect of safe swaddling of newborns after bathing on stress and comfort. The population of the research consists of newborns receiving treatment and care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of a State Hospital located in the north of Turkey, and the sample consists of 72 babies who meet the sample selection criteria. Descriptive Characteristics Form, Newborn Stress Scale and Newborn Comfort Behavior Scale were used to collect data. Babies will be bathed in the bathtub and then swaddled. The baby will be placed in the incubator and kept for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the swaddle will be opened quietly and slowly, without disturbing the body posture. Stress and comfort scores will be given by two observers by video recording the babies before bathing, before swaddling and after swaddling.
For women that experience angina symptoms with underlying vascular spasm as the cause, stress has an aggravating role. Coping with stress is therefore included as an important pillar in dealing with this chronic disease, see the European Association of Percutaneous Cardiovascular Interventions (EACPI) consensus document on INOCA. In practice, stress management focuses on informing and identifying the role stress plays in their lives. A potential stress management tool: "Wavy" aims to help users manage stress more consciously through biofeedback. This research focuses on the effectiveness of stress management applications. The hypothesis is that the app will help to avoid the trigger stress as much as possible and thus reduce the burden of disease.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of a mobile app-based mindfulness program in improving the mental well-being of caregivers with a child diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who live in rural areas of Maine. The primary question the investigators aim to answer is whether this mindfulness intervention can reduce stress and anxiety in these rural caregivers of children with ASD. Participants in the trial will engage in a 30-day mindfulness program that they can complete over a maximum of 60 days. During this time, they will practice short daily mindfulness lessons and respond to a set of brief questions regarding their anxiety levels. Ultimately, the investigators want to assess whether this intervention helps these caregivers feel less stressed and anxious.
This study aims to address the following research questions: Evaluate the effectiveness of an Interactive Mental Wellness (I-AM-WELL) program on final year nursing students' anxiety, depression, stress, resilience, practice readiness, physical activity and eating behaviours. Explore final year nursing students' experiences and perception of the I-AM-WELL program. Participants will be invited to participate in an asynchronous online I-AM-WELL program
The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of music-based mindfulness on stress reduction among East Asian international students.
We aimed to compare the effects of the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and the Cognitive Behavioural Stress Reduction (CBSR) group interventions on depression and anxiety symptoms and perceived stress of medical students. 323 medical students applied to participate in one of the group interventions and were assessed with the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Of these, 253 (77% female, mean age=21.9 ± 2.9 years) were allocated into online MBSR (n=127) and online CBSR (n=126) groups after randomization. Their anxiety and depressive symptoms and perceived stress levels were assessed at baseline and after 8 weeks of interventions.
Students within post-secondary education settings are experiencing increasing stress, distress, and mental health difficulties. Many post-secondary education settings have identified student mental health and wellbeing as a priority and yet are struggling to adequately meet the needs of students. This has led to exploring whether technology can be used to help promote mental health and wellbeing among students. The JoyPop app is one mobile mental health app with a growing evidence base. It was developed to support improved emotion regulation - a key challenge among students struggling with distress and mental health difficulties. Using a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, the primary objective of this research is to determine the effectiveness of the JoyPop app in improving emotion regulation among post-secondary students when compared to no intervention. The secondary objectives are to: (1) Assess change in mental health, wellbeing, and resilience between students in each condition to better understand the app's broader impact; (2) Conduct an economic analysis to determine whether receiving the app reduces other health service use and associated costs; (4) Assess students' perspective on the quality of the JoyPop app.
Primary aims of the study are to evaluate the feasibility of Skin conductance (SC) measurements and its correlation to Neonatal Pain and Distress Scale (N-PASS) - scores during the Less-Invasive-Surfactant-Administration (LISA)-procedure in preterm infants. Secondary aims are to evaluate the effect of LISA on the general stress-level in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome. The assessment of pain and stress with SC measurement in addition to the subjective assessment with N-PASS may provide more conclusive data on the sensation of pain or stress during the LISA procedure and therefore the necessity of analgosedation. Therefore, this study might help to identify those infants in need for analgosedation, which would allow an individualized approach in the future.
The goal of this electronic feasibility clinical trial study is to evaluate the effects of breathing and meditation techniques on stress levels in patients with glaucoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does breathing and meditation decrease the level of stress in glaucoma patients? - Does breathing and meditation improve disease specific quality of life in glaucoma patients - Does breathing and meditation affect the importance that in glaucoma patients place on future consequences? Participants will participate in online session where they will be taught proper breathing and meditation technique to practice. They will also be completing online questionnaires following independent practice sessions over time. Researchers will compare the breathing and meditation group to the usual care group to see if the outcomes are different.
We will assess stress using heart rate variability during examination on medical student. Three time of measurement will be performed. First standardized objective clinical examination, second classic table examination and third a control day.
