Filter by:This research is a randomized controlled study that will be conducted in an online environment. The study comprises five stages. The first stage, PREPARATION, involves obtaining ethical approval and permissions from universities, preparing data collection tools, and identifying scholarship recipients. The second stage is the development of the MOBILE AND WEB-BASED application. The third stage is the SITUATION ASSESSMENT stage. In this stage, the post-earthquake trauma level, coping skill level, emotional eating levels, and the status of healthy lifestyle behavior of students enrolled in the Nursing Departments of firat University, Osmaniye Korkut Ata University, and Ankara University will be determined using one of the quantitative data collection tools, PETLDS (Objectives 1, 2, 3, and 4). The fourth stage is the INTERVENTION stage, where the prepared training and applications will be implemented within the program (Objectives 5, 6, 7, and 8). The fifth stage is the EVALUATION stage, involving the collection of final test data and analysis.
The spleen is often injured when the body sustains trauma. This leads to bleeding. The bleeding can be stopped by a big operation cutting open the belly or a small hole in your groin where a blood vessel can be accessed and through which the bleeding can be stopped. We do not know what types of injuries it is best to use this procedure. We do not know why we do not use the smaller technique in some instances. We also do not know exactly which of a number of ways to stop the bleeding could be better. We have a big data set in the trauma and audit research network (TARN) which we would like to use to help answer these questions and design further studies to better answer the questions. Adding a few other pieces of data, we are able to answer key questions into how the spleen will best be treated in trauma.
The RADAR-Canada trial is a pilot RCT undertaken to assess the acceptability of, compliance with, and biologic consequences of a deresuscitation protocol designed to expedite the removal of excess interstitial fluid in patients who remain in a positive fluid balance following admission to an intensive care unit (ICU).
The purpose of this study is to investigate justice-involved Black/African American female adolescents' (JI BAFAs; N=35) self-reported outcomes: stress, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), recidivism, etc., as well as their parents/caregivers' (P/Cs; N=35) stress and pre- and post- intervention results along with their views of an adapted intervention.
There is a controversy regarding the roles of the Normal saline and Tap water in irrigation of the wound. It has been suggested that antiseptic solution including normal saline has cytotoxic effect while tap water damages the fibroblast. There are no high level evidence to support one type of solution over other, systematic review have found no difference in wound infection between irrigation with normal saline vs tap water. There are ten randomized controlled trial comparing tap water with normal saline for irrigating wound published between 1992 to 2016. These RCT are analyzed in three systemic review and meta-analysis published on 2016, 2019, 2022, which showed that tap water and normal saline has no difference in terms of infection rate. The infection rate observed in various studies ranges from 0-11.5% in normal saline group and 0-12.6% in tap water group with no statistically significant difference.
The proposed PROACT study will test the effectiveness of a mental health intervention (psychotherapy) for multiple common mental health conditions (depressive, anxiety and trauma symptoms) among adolescents and youth with HIV in Kenya. The study will also evaluate key factors for successful intervention implementation and conduct an economic evaluation to inform future intervention scale-up.
Childbirth is a critical moment in this perinatal period, with high unpredictability and risks of medical complications for the mother and child. It can be experienced as a traumatic experience for the woman. The consequences of a traumatic childbirth are numerous: psychiatric consequences for the mother: with increased risk of post-traumatic stress syndrome of postpartum depression decompensation of an old psychiatric illness, suicide , addictive disorders ; consequences on interactions: early mother-baby interactions are of poorer quality if the women have a negative experience of their birth. Very few studies have focused on the early detection of traumatic childbirth, on the day of it. These evaluations only take into account the women's experience of their childbirth. The systematization of a screening questionnaire for all deliveries would help to detect obvious traumatic deliveries but also to detect traumatic experiences when objectively the delivery occurs without obstetric complications. This is why the objective of our study is to evaluate the perception of traumatic births by midwives.
The PRESERVE & CONNECT project is a multi-site randomized control trial of the Breakthrough Parenting Curriculum: Navigating Trauma Across Generations (BPC) in rural and racially and ethnically diverse communities in Vermont and Connecticut.
An open reduction and internal fixation is a painful procedure requiring intensive postoperative pain management. Traditionally, opioid analgesia has been the gold standard for postoperative pain control. However, given the harmful side effect profile and opioid epidemic in the United States, it is advantageous to use alternate forms of analgesia. Multimodal pain control captures the effectiveness of different analgesic modalities and maximizes analgesia while minimizing side effects. The theory behind their use is that agents with different mechanisms of action work synergistically in preventing acute pain. Objective: To measure postoperative pain control in patients in two treatment arms of ORIF of the clavicle: a treatment group given a nonopioid pain control regimen, and a standard of care control group given standard opioid pain control regimen. Study Design: A randomized single blinded standard of care controlled clinical trial comparing pain management interventions. All adult patients scheduled for an ORIF following a traumatic fracture by fellowship trained Trauma surgeons will be eligible for inclusion. Patients will be excluded if their medical history presents known allergies or intolerance to Motrin, Lyrica, Tylenol, Zanaflex, substantial alcohol or drug abuse, and pregnancy, history of narcotics within 6 months of surgery, renal impairment, peptic ulcer disease, GI bleeding. On the day of surgery, patients will be randomized to receive a nonopioid pain control regimen or an opioid regimen using a computer-generated sequence. If pain is uncontrolled, patients will also be sent home with a prescription with 10 pills of 5 mg of Oxycodone for breakthrough pain. The amount of oxycodone taken will be recorded. Patients can call the resident on call, available 24-hours per day, if additional pain control is needed. Treatment: All patients will undergo previously scheduled ORIF of the clavicle in standard fashion and be randomized to the non-narcotic pain regimen vs the narcotic pain regimen.
The primary objective of the BLAME-LESS study is to examine the effectiveness of an online psychoeducation program in reducing trauma-related feelings of shame and guilt in adolescents who experienced sexual or physical abuse .
