Active clinical trials for "Anxiety Disorders"

This randomized controlled study evaluates the effect of acupressure application on the anxiety level patients undergoing cystectomy surgery. The hypothesis of this study is that acupressure reduces anxiety levels and stabilizes hemodynamic parameters.

With this study the investigators aim to examine through a mixed method study the feasibility, usability and satisfaction with the developed online tool for perinatal mental health problems. This will be done through a pre- and post measurement of depressive and anxiety symptoms and the use of the tool itself. In addition, a qualitative thematic analysis will be conducted on the clarity, understandability and user-friendliness of the tool.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and safety of two care pathways (including internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy [CBT] and/or in-person CBT) for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of VR on post-operative pain and anxiety management in cardiac surgery patients undergoing a coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedure. Participants in the intervention group will receive a 20 minute session with the head mounted VR device on post-operative days 1,2 and 3. Participants in the control group will be treated with conventional post-operative care.

The purpose of this study is to determine if non-invasive distracting devices (Virtual Reality headset) are more effective than the standard of care (i.e., no technology based distraction) for preventing anxiety in parental and pediatric populations

The study was planned as a randomized controlled study in order to evaluate the use of music and natural scenery paintings in women who underwent HSG procedure, their pain level, anxiety and post-procedure analgesic use.

Chemotherapy is a treatment that uses natural or synthetic chemicals and biological agents to kill rapidly proliferating cells. As chemotherapeutic drugs prevent the growth and proliferation of cancer cells, they also inhibit the growth of normal cells such as intestinal and oral mucosal epithelium, bone marrow cells, and hair follicle cells. During chemotherapy treatment, which is widely used in the treatment of cancer cases and considered one of the most effective methods of cancer treatment, individuals; may experience side effects such as nausea-vomiting, loss of appetite, mouth ulcers, pain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and changes in their skin and nails. There are several factors that can trigger anxiety in cancer patients: fear of cancer and its treatment-related side effects, fear of relapse after treatment, uncertainty, concerns about changing roles and relationships, and fear of death. Treatment methods are available for a variety of side effects and negative effects experienced by cancer patients. These methods include pharmacological and nonpharmacological approaches. For example, benzodiazepines are frequently used to treat anxiety in cancer patients. If benzodiazepines are not adequate, low-dose antipsychotics can be used. However, benzodiazepines and their derivatives may reduce respiratory function, induce sedation, and cause confusion. Music is an example of non-pharmacological cognitive-behavioral treatment that is used to control negative symptoms in many fields. The use of music for healing is easy, has no side effects, and is beneficial for physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Anxiety and fear can be reduced by therapeutic music, which increases endorphin secretion and positive emotions. Treatment of serious illnesses such as cancer requires a holistic approach that includes psychological, social, and spiritual support in addition to pharmacological treatment. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine how different types of music affect cancer patients' anxiety and satisfaction during chemotherapy.

For many years, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) has been a common and effective procedure to treat chronic refractory joint pain. Although efforts must be pursued, as general anesthesia remains the main tendency for TKA. Currently, the standard of care to manage procedural anxiety is pharmacological sedation; i.e. the intravenous administration of additional anesthetic agents such as propofol or midazolam. However, pharmacological sedation has considerable undesirable side effects. Hence, risks of intraprocedural adverse events including respiratory depression, hemodynamic perturbations, or paradoxical effects such as hostility, aggression, and psychomotor agitation, are increased. The goal of this prospective, single-center, randomized controlled clinical trial is to systematically evaluate the impact of implementing a protocol of virtual reality hypnosis in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.

The purpose of this study is to assess how psychological stress and anxiety relate to bladder sensitivity and to psychological burdens in people with overactive bladder and how this can be measured effectively.

This study will use a systematic music therapy intervention on patients with mental illness trying to help them with their internalized stigma.
