Active clinical trials for "Anxiety Disorders"

This study examines how online self-guided programs can improve mood and anxiety symptoms. These programs use exercises from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, which is an evidence-based treatment for depression and anxiety. The purpose of this study is to learn who will do best with the online format. Our aim is to learn for whom online self-guided interventions are most efficacious. This knowledge is important because it will help inform clinicians and patients about who might benefit from this type of intervention versus who would need the assistance of a therapist. More specifically, we hope to figure out who would benefit from solely an online intervention and who would benefit from an online intervention in addition to other treatment.

The current cohort study of 300 stable COPD patients aims to assess the following topics: The prevalence of anxiety and depressive disorders in patients with COPD The screening properties of Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale in patients with COPD The prognostic influence by anxiety or depressive symptoms and anxiety or depressive disorder. whether characterization of 1) affective aspects of dyspnea symptoms or 2) persistent styles of thinking (worry or rumination) and metacognitions that drive these may improve the current recommendation of screening for anxiety and depression in COPD in relation to its clinical relevance on functional status and three year outcome

In this clinical study, it was aimed to evaluate whether there is a decrease in patient anxiety by applying virtual reality glasses, which are the product of new technology, during scaling and root planing treatment. Patients who required scaling and root planing treatment and also scored 9 or above according to the Dental Anxiety Scale were included in our study. Scaling and root planing was performed in a randomly selected intraoral quadrant of the patients, in the same way, with or without the use of virtual reality glasses. In the virtual reality glasses application, a video consisting of images of nature landscapes developed for patient rehabilitation was projected onto the screen in front of the patient's eyes. The Dental Anxiety Scale was reapplied after the completion of the treatment. In the intraoral quadrant where virtual reality glasses were used, it is expected that lower Corah Dental Anxiety Scale scores may be obtained after the treatment is completed, compared to the intraoral quadrant where the treatment is performed without glasses, thus reducing anxiety.

The aim of this randomized, controlled study is to examine an internet delivered, self-help program for social anxiety based on psychodynamic therapy. The study will compare three conditions: the psychodynamic program with therapist support, without therapist support and a waitlist control.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a brief intervention for disabling anxiety is practical to conduct and beneficial for older adults injured by falls.

The purpose of this project is to develop and evaluate Internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) for Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients with concurrent depression or anxiety symptoms. All treatment in this project is given as an adjunct to Standard Medical Treatment (SMT). ICBT will be compared to an Internet-based active control treatment (ICONTROL) and to SMT alone. It is hypothesized that both active treatments will be superior to SMT, and that ICBT will be superior to ICONTROL, in reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether tailored internet-administered cbt is a feasible treatment for anxiety disorders in clinical settings.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether participation in mind-body skills groups by veterans who have experienced a stressful war-related situation and have symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), will improve symptoms of PTSD, depression and anxiety, reduce anger, improve quality of life, quality of sleep and result in posttraumatic growth (a positive change that people can experience when they have been in a traumatic situation).

A pilot study to evaluate the ability of photobiomodulation to alter cerebral blood flow in the frontal poles and to affect the emotional status of patients with major depression.

This study will compare the change detected by a standardized rating scale (Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale) scores in the active treatment group as compared to sham (placebo) group after 6 weeks of rTMS treatments. It is hoped that 6 weeks of rTMS treatment will lead to improvement of core symptoms in patients with GAD.
