Filter by:The goal of this randomized control trial is to learn if physical therapy coaching and education improves work-related muscle pain in surgeons more than education alone. The main focuses of this study are to: 1. To evaluate pain in surgeons before and after surgical cases. 2. To evaluate work-load related stress in surgeons after surgical cases. 3. To evaluate surgeons' quality of life. 4. To evaluate surgeons' grip strength. Participants will be put into two groups at random. One group will watch an educational video only. The other group will watch an educational video and get a coaching session from a physical therapist.
This study will test how well a mindfulness-based intervention called CHIME improves the emotional well-being of educators in Early Head Start and Head Start (EHS/HS) settings. The study also will examine if there are any benefits to young children's social emotional health as a result of the CHIME program. Researchers will compare educators who participate in CHIME to educators who are asked to participate at a later time to see if there are benefits to their emotional health and teaching practices.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore possible benefits and mechanisms through which the Somatic Psychoeducational Intervention can improve health and wellness in health care providers (HCP). The main goals of the study are: - To understand how the participants are doing with regard to their mindfulness, coping behaviors, emotional, physical, and work health, and autonomic reactivity (the degree participants physiologically respond). - To investigate whether pre-intervention measures relate to the overall functioning of the HCPs. - To determine the 1-week and 1-month post-intervention effects of the Intervention(s) - To identify individual characteristics that influence the effectiveness of the intervention at the 1-week and 1-month post-intervention assessments. Participants will: - complete the online pre-assessment measures regarding how they are doing emotionally and with respect to their work situation. - complete pre-intervention, 1-week post-intervention, and 1-month post-intervention assessments that involve completion of online measures and collection of saliva samples. - participated in the intervention (which involves 4.5 hours; the 1.5-hour classes will be administered over three weeks). Researchers will compare the Intervention Group A to Intervention Groub B to see if the Intervention Group B experiences greater improvements in their health and wellness.
The proposed design is a randomised, double-blind, controlled, crossover intervention assessing the effects of an active intervention, containing Scutellaria baicalensis and Crataegus, versus placebo, on stress, cognition, sleep and wellbeing in healthy human volunteers. Outcome measures will be assessed acutely on day 1 and following 14 days of supplement consumption. Some interim outcome measures will also be assessed throughout the supplementation period to monitor sub-chronic changes
The goal of this four-part preclinical [I-II] and clinical [III-IV] trial is to compare, with randomised crossover study design [I-IV], a new medical airway device with standard procedure (biteblock or no device) for upper airway patency during sedation with intravenous propofol [I-IV]. - Page 1 of 9 [DRAFT] - The two main questions it aims to answer are if this new airway device is superior to standard procedure with respect to - maintenance of spontaneous ventilation [I] and upper airway volumes [II] at moderate and deep steady-state levels of sedation in healthy volunteer study participants, and - fewer and less lasting bedside signs of respiratory depression [III-IV], and less adjuvant use of manual airway support [III-IV] during procedural sedation (PS) according to standard of care(SOC) in study patients scheduled for colonoscopy or ureteral catheterisation under PS. Owing to the crossover study design used throughout the trial, there are no comparison groups of study participants [I-II] or study patients [III-IV].
This is a quasi-experimental study that will examine whether mindfulness based stress reduction, adapted to an online learning management system, will reduce factors related to burnout in private practice licensed clinical social workers in New York State.
The Norwegian Sickness Absence Clinic (NSAC) is a publicly funded specialist outpatient health service, which is uniquely available for the work force. The overall aim of the NSAC is prevention of sickness absence, promote return to work (RTW) among those on sickness absence and prevent long term disability benefit dependency. In addition to being a health service, the NSAC has a focus on work and functional recovery, including also non-health related factors. Patients can be referred by general practitioners for mental health problems and musculoskeletal problems. The NSAC has a lower threshold for severity than specialist health services generally, and in particular for mental health problems. The efficacy of this service is unknown. The NSAC Efficacy Study is a randomized controlled multicentre trial which aims to assess the effect of the NSAC service. "Helse i Arbeid" is the Norwegian name for NSAC, and the Norwegian abbreviation is "HiA". The Norwegian study name is HIANOR. The NSAC Efficacy Study involves five different NSACs across northern Norway, and will recruit 2500 patients, randomized to in equal proportions to three treatment arms: 1. NSAC - rapid: treatment at the NSAC at- or within 4 weeks 2. NSAC - ordinary: treatment at the NSAC after 10-14 weeks 3. NSAC - active control: monodisciplinary examination at the NSAC close to diagnosis-specific deadline for examination as suggested by guidelines (8-26 weeks, the majority at the end of this interval) The overall aim is to assess the effect of the NSAC service, with the hypothesis that the NSAC service is superior to what resembles treatment as usual (TAU) for outcomes such as return to work or improved health (waiting list control). Many of the diagnoses or problems for which patients are referred to the NSACs naturally improve regardless of health interventions, and - as of date - no research has been conducted to assess the efficacy of the service.
Yoga, a form of exercise designed to bring balance and health to the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual dimensions of the individual, will benefit many white-collar workers by using popular technological environments to increase overall physical activity and well-being. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of yoga exercises applied with two different technological access in white-collar employees on musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, sleep quality, stress level, quality of life and work efficiency.
The Women Lift Safely! Intervention study aims to increase safe carrying behavior to reduce health risks of heavy lifting in a rural area of Nepal (i.e. reducing weight and using safe lifting techniques). The study's specific aims are to: 1) Test whether a psychological intervention that promotes self-efficacy can promote women's use of safe carrying behavior effectively compared to an information only control condition. (2) Test whether including a social partner in the intervention is more effective than an individual psychological intervention.
This pilot study will evaluate possible intervention components to be included in a future stress management and health behaviour change trial and to pilot test their feasibility and acceptability in a small sample.
