Filter by:The overall aim is to examine the impact of trauma and critical illness on the brain, peripheral immune system and cognition. This is a prospective study where a study group exposed to trauma and intensive care will be be examined with consecutive PET imaging, EEG, biomarkers and cognitive testing within 3 weeks of the trauma, after 3 months and finally after 12 months. The study group will consist of twenty trauma patients treated in the intensive care unit.
Trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) is an evidence-based practice (EBP) for the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) among children and adolescents. In the current study, data were collected from youth receiving TF-CBT in specialized child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) and their caregivers in 2018-2021.
Aim: The aim of this study to determine the effect of motivational interviews on the perception and self-efficacy of birth in nullipars with a perception of traumatic birth. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted in a randomized controlled, between November 2019 and November 2020 in the obstetrics outpatient clinics of Elazig Fethi Sekin City Hospital. In the power analysis, the sample size was calculated as at least 83 pregnant women for each group (83 experiment, 83 control). Data were collected with Descriptive Information Form, Traumatic Childbirth Perceptions Scale (TCPS) and Childbirth of Self-Efficacy Scale-Short From (CBSE). Pregnant women in the experimental group were held with four sessions of motivational interviews one week a part. No intervention was made for the pregnant women in the control group. Descriptive statistics, chi-square test, t test for dependent and independent groups were used in data analysis
It is well known that patients suffering from chronic pain report higher levels of pain, anxiety, and depression if they have experienced a traumatic event. However, little is know about pain area and widespreadness. In this retrospective study, we want to investigate whether pain area and widespreadness differs in chronic pain patients with and without traumatic events. To test this hypothesis we will retrospectively analyse pain drawings collected at the pain outpatient department from Hannover Medical School. Participants will be divided into four groups depending on the severity of their traumatic events: no trauma; accidental trauma; interpersonal trauma; post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
To fill up the research gaps and build up a healthcare service model for geriatric trauma patients, this two-stage study aims to (a) develop geriatric trauma Artificial Intelligence (AI) prediction models by comparing the outcomes from clinical assessment and AI joint images; and (b) examine the long-term effects of an innovative health service program in geriatric trauma patients.
Victims of trauma are often healthy individuals prior to the incident, but acquire numerous complications including sepsis and pulmonary complications and diminished quality of life after trauma. According to Advanced Trauma Life Support guidelines, all severely injured trauma patients should receive supplemental oxygen. The objective of TRAUMOX2 is to compare the effect of a restrictive versus liberal oxygen strategy the first eight hours following trauma on the incidence of 30-day mortality and/or major respiratory complications (pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome) within 30 days (combined primary endpoint).
Registry intended to provide a data repository and reporting infrastructure for the surveillance of CytoSorb device use in real-world critical care settings, and to serve as an objective, comprehensive, and scientifically-based resource to measure and improve the quality of patient care
In high-volume trauma centers, multi-slice CT scanners have become the routine imaging modality for screening trauma patients due to their speed and accuracy. In trauma patients with no known neurologic deficits, diagnostic CT is often obtained though it remains unclear whether this affects management of the patient [1]. With the growing cost of health care, a careful look at the benefit and cost of CT is needed to determine how to best utilize this modality in the evaluation of trauma patients. HYPOTHESIS: In trauma patients with absence of neurologic defects, the addition of comprehensive CT does not change overall clinical management.
This study will investigate if the SSERT (Social Skills and Emotion Regulation Training) intervention is feasible and acceptable in individual with psychotic disorder and a history of trauma.
Medical teams work in demanding situations that are often uncertain, changeable and require accurate decision-making, skilled movement and coordinated action. How teams perform matters for patient outcomes. In addition to medical expertise, how individuals and the team collectively respond and manage the psychological stress of the situation has a significant impact on performance. One approach, which attempts to explain the facilitating and debilitating effects of stress on performance is the biopsychosocial model of challenge and threat. A challenge state occurs when perceived personal resources meet or exceed the situation's demands, whereas threat occurs when demands exceed resources. Challenge states have been consistently associated with improved performance in a range of environments and activities, including medical settings. In a recent study conducted during a national simulation-based training event for residents (the SIMCUP Italia 2018) it was found that a high level of resources is associated with better performance until demands become very high. The present study builds on previous work to explore how challenge and threat states are linked to performance. It includes a more recently developed and robust measure of demands and resource appraisals. In addition, secondary aims include the exploration of how psychological variables, specifically cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, self-confidence and social identity (connection with other members of the medical team) are linked to challenge and threat and performance. Understanding the psychological determinants of performance in critical care can provide the basis for individual and team-based interventions to improve critical care team performance.
