Active clinical trials for "Anxiety Disorders"

A mixed methods randomised controlled pilot trial, conducted in miniature of future definitive trial, in which the investigators will test optimised intervention and study processes. The investigators will individually randomise stroke survivor participants in a 1:1 allocation to: HEADS: UP or Control.

Participants with Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) will use a digital therapeutic for 30 days, and will complete assessments measuring a broad range of anxiety and mood-related symptoms, with a focus on SAD symptoms, and metrics of functional impairment during this time. After the treatment period, participants will be followed at 6 month and 12 month after the completion of the study.

The current study aims to explore the efficacy of a text message based Safety Behavior Fading Intervention compared to a control intervention.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of an acute dose of BNC210 compared to placebo on reducing anxiety provoked by a speaking challenge and measured using the Subjective Units of Distress Scale (SUDS) in patients with Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD).

Anxiety is a common and impairing problem for children. The principle treatment for pediatric anxiety involves facing a child's fears in a stepwise approach through a therapeutic exercise called exposures. While exposures are effective, some feared situations cannot be confronted in a clinician's office (e.g., heights, public speaking, storms). This poses a logistical challenge in treatment that: (1) takes time away from patient care, (2) leads clinicians to rely on imagined exposures, and/or (3) requires families to complete exposures outside of the therapy visits. This creates a burden for clinicians and families, and impedes treatment success. Immersive virtual reality (VR) presents an innovative solution that allows children to face fears without leaving the clinician's office. While VR has been used to distract children during painful medical procedures, it has not been well examined as a primary treatment for pediatric anxiety. This study proposes to examine the effectiveness and acceptability of using immersive VR exposures to treat children and adolescents with specific phobias.

Lavender is a plant whose extracts are widely used in aromatherapy. Lavender has been shown to decrease pain during procedures, and has also been shown to decrease pre-operative anxiety. It contains two compounds, linalool and linalyl acetate, both of which have been shown to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system. The study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of inhaled lavender on pain and anxiety levels associated with specific interventional pain procedures. The study will be conducted in a randomized controlled trial. The trial will include one experimental group who will be exposed to lavender oil infused surgical mask to be worn by the subject, a second placebo group who will be exposed to a almond oil infused surgical mask to be worn, and a third control group who will wear a surgical mask infused with sterile water. Participants will be randomly assigned, and subject will be blinded. Our study will seek at least sixty participants, each randomly assigned either the experimental, placebo, or control group (n=20) to ensure adequate power. The disease characteristics among groups will be similar, with all participants experiencing back pain with or without radicular symptoms leading them to seek lumbar epidural steroid injection or lumbar medial branch block. Pre-procedural anxiety and anxiety occurring during the procedure will be measured by the State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAT-I) questionnaire. Procedural pain will be measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). Our goal with this study is to investigate safe, adjunctive therapies that may decrease patient discomfort during interventional pain procedures, and ultimately improve procedural adherence.

The study sample will be divided randomly into 4 groups, each group will contain 27 children who need treatment in mandibular teeth and require anesthesia with inferior alveolar nerve block which is considered a painful procedure. In the aromatherapy group, 3 drops of lavender-Neroli will be applied to cotton balls, which will be placed in a box designed with 3D printing to be placed on the nasal mask that is similar to the one used when administering nitrous oxide, so that the child inhales the aroma of the essential oil through the nasal mask. The mask is applied 5 minutes before administering local anesthesia in order to allow the child to inhale the oil aroma prior to and during local anesthesia. In the music group, the music will be played from the recorder prior to local anesthesia and during it, music will be chosen by the child from the cartoon movies/tv shows they watch so that it is from his environment and familiar to them. In The third group, both music and aromatherapy will drive the anesthesia process. In The control groups, the child will put on the same nasal mask without an aromatherapy box to obtain a placebo effect and then receive the anesthesia.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of Ranquilon, 1 mg tablets, at a dose of 6 mg/day compared to placebo for the treatment of patients with anxiety in neurasthenia and adjustment disorder. An additional study objective was to evaluate the safety of Ranquilon, 1 mg tablets, at a dose of 6 mg/day compared to placebo in patients with anxiety in neurasthenia and adjustment disorder.

It was aimed to examine the effect of aerobic exercise on nomophobia and anxiety in nomophobic university students.

The aim of the study is to determine the effect of group mindfulness based cognitive counseling on social anxiety, assertiveness and self-confidence in nursing students and the relationship of these variables to change over time.
