Active clinical trials for "Anxiety Disorders"

Simulation education has become one of the innovative educational approaches that are widely used in providing nursing students with knowledge, skills, and attitudes towards vocational courses. Simulation education provides students with the opportunity to combine their knowledge and skills and provide nursing care in a high-reality environment. However, the fact that simulation training is a method that requires the student to recognize a clinical event, make a clinical decision, and intervene with the patient in line with this decision may cause students to experience anxiety and affect their learning. Although there are limited studies conducted on nursing students, it is stated that new approaches such as laughter yoga are effective in reducing anxiety and stress levels. In this direction, this research; In this study, it was planned to investigate the effectiveness of laughter yoga in terms of reducing the anxiety experienced by nursing students during simulation training and increasing their learning satisfaction. The universe of the research will be the second-year students of Hacettepe University Faculty of Nursing. As a result of the power analysis, it is aimed to reach 54 people. The study was planned in a randomized controlled design. Research data will be collected through Personal Information Form, State Anxiety Scale, Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale, Perceived Stress Scale for Nursing Students, and Students' Vital Findings Evaluation Form. With this study, it is predicted that laughter yoga to be applied to nursing students before simulation training will have a positive effect on state anxiety, student satisfaction, and perceived stress level.

The present study was conducted with 44 patients who applied to the Endoscopy Unit of a university hospital for sedation-free colonoscopy between January 2, 2020 and September 28, 2020, met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study. The patients were homogeneously divided into experimental (n=22) and control (n=22) groups based on their gender and history of colonoscopy. The patients in the experimental group watched a 360 degree virtual reailty (VR) video with atmospheric background music over images and sounds of nature through virtual reality glasses while no application was performed for the patients in the control group during the procedure. The "Demographic Information Form", "Trait Anxiety Scale", "Visual Analog Scale-Pain", "Visual Analog Scale-Anxiety", "Vital Signs Monitoring Chart" and "Satisfaction Evaluation on the Virtual Reality Glasses Application" forms were used in the data collection phase. For the study, an ethics committee approval was obtained in addition to written consent by the institutions and patients. Numbers, percentages, the Chi-square test, the Wilcoxon test and the Mann-Whitney U test were used for data analysis.

In this study, the effects of bed exercises on pain, anxiety, early ambulation and mobilization in major surgery patients were aimed. The research was experimental and a total of 120 patients participated. Data were collected using an information form, anxiety scale, and pain scale. Exercise was applied to the patients in the experimental group (15 minutes) and no intervention was applied to the control group. Descriptive statistics, correlation tests and t-test were used. Cronbach's alpha coefficients were checked for the scales.

It was aimed to determine the effect of virtual reality glasses application on anxiety and fatigue in women with breast cancer receiving adjuvant chemotherapy.

The study was designed as a randomized controlled experimental research with the purpose of determining the effect of distraction by using external cold and vibration-Buzzy and VR on reducing procedural pain and anxiety in children aged 7 to 12 years during phlebotomy injection.

Many medical interventions, including the dressing of central venous catheters, a common procedure used for children with cancer, cause anxiety and pain in children. This can adversely affect their care and recovery. This study aims to determine the effect of using a kaleidoscope during central venous catheter dressing on anxiety and pain in children with cancer.

Despite research identifying effective treatments for youth anxiety, parents (and other primary caregivers) are unaware that some treatments are more effective than others. This study investigates whether having a local parent key opinion leader co-facilitate an educational outreach presentation on effective treatment for youth anxiety will increase parent demand for evidence-based practices (EBPs). It is hypothesized that participants who receive a presentation co-presented by a key opinion leader will be more likely to have sought cognitive behavioral therapy for their child at the three-month follow up, relative to participants who receive a presentation presented by two researchers.

The study team is developing an e-learning course to train obstetric providers to address perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. The study team will conduct a formative evaluation of the e-learning course with 10 obstetric providers and revise/refine the course based on feedback and then conduct a summative evaluation using a cluster Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT). The three-arm cluster RCT will evaluate the effectiveness of 1) a virtual implementation protocol and e-learning/toolkit as compared to 2) e-learning/toolkit alone as compared to 3) treatment-as-usual. Effectiveness will be evaluated based on rates and quality of care for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. Using 2:2:1 randomization, the study team will randomize a minimum of 15 to a maximum of 25 obstetric practices into three groups: (1) virtual implementation protocol plus e-learning/toolkit (n=6 to 10); (2) e-learning/toolkit alone (n=6 to 10); and (3) treatment-as-usual (n=3 to 5), which will yield a maximum of 1000 patient charts evaluated for care received from obstetric providers in the randomized practices. Charts from 40 patients per practice will be evaluated at 3 different time points.

It is aimed to evaluate the effect of music listened by patients with moderate dental anxiety during the restoration of posterior occlusal dental caries on vital signs of the participants.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of diverting the children's attention to a different point during phlebotomy which is an invasive procedure with acute pain. This is a randomized controlled experimental study. The study was conducted with two groups: the intervention group (n=127) and the control group (n=129). The control group was applied to standard phlebotomy procedures. In contrast, the intervention group had a piece of equipment that looks like a blood tube in front of them during the phlebotomy process to divert their attention from the phlebotomy process to the equipment.
