Active clinical trials for "Anxiety Disorders"

To investigate the effect of the Childbirth and Parenthood Preparation Education on Maternal Health Needs, Pregnancy-Related Anxiety and Fetal Health Anxiety in Primigravidas. A total of 148 pregnant women are planned to be included in the study. Data will be collected with the 'Pregnant Identification Form', 'Maternal Health Needs Scale', 'Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Scale-Revision 2' and 'Fetal Health Anxiety Inventory. The "Childbirth and Parenthood Preparation Education" program will be applied to the experimental group for a period of four weeks (a month (each week, once a week in total four sessions)). It is thought that the results of the research will contribute to the welfare of pregnant women by reducing maternal health needs, pregnancy-related anxiety and fetal health anxiety levels.

Breast cancer is the number one cancer in women worldwide, with 58,500 new cases in metropolitan France in 2018. The announcement of the cancer, the treatment methods and their side effects can generate unpleasant emotions, such as fear, for example, and the resources for coping with them differ according to the patient. Coming to the hospital as an outpatient for chemotherapy is in itself a source of anxiety. The use of music in the treatment process is a therapy that can help patients to reduce the intensity of their unpleasant emotions. Active music therapy involves the patient playing an instrument, including voice and body movement in rhythm, without requiring any musical skills. The presence of a qualified music therapy professional is essential, particularly in the reception of the emotions that may be generated during the sessions. These sessions can be collective or individual. In breast cancer, music therapy has been shown to be effective in reducing pain, anxiety, depressive symptoms and length of hospitalisation in patients undergoing mastectomy.

Chronic urticaria is a condition that impairs the patient's quality of life, interferes with routine daily activities, and is often associated with anxiety. It constitutes a significant burden associated with psychiatric comorbidities such as Fundamentals of Positive Psychotherapy (PPT) The aim is to help the individual to develop his/her core capacities and in his/her daily life in four areas of life (body, success, relationships and the future) to help them achieve balance. In patients with chronic urticaria, especially problems with the body occur and this can affect other areas of life. Literature When examined, it is seen that psychological interventions in chronic urticaria are very few and in ancient times. In addition, it is recommended that psychological interventions based on conversation should be performed with these patients. PPT, conversational and balancing the dimensions of "body, achievement, relationships and future" It is a working approach. Body and future in the disease process of chronic urticaria patients Considering that there is a balance change in the dimensions of the PPT, it will contribute to the literature. is considered. Intervention Group Positive psychotherapy counseling sessions, specialist psychiatry who completed positive psychotherapy training will be done by the nurse. Contact information of the volunteers will be obtained at the outpatient clinic and individuals will be randomized. will be divided into intervention and control groups.

The purpose of this study is to test whether a single-dose of Epidiolex (cannabidiol) is associated with reduced psychological, physiological, and neuroimaging measures of anxiety in people diagnosed with social anxiety disorder (SAD).

This mechanistic study uses an anti anxiety drug and brain imaging to study the threat processing system and associated brain circuits in people with depression, anxiety disorders and comorbid depression and anxiety disorders. In a double blind, placebo controlled crossover design, up to 65 individuals will be recruited who will have a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and at least one anxiety disorder (AD) (AD-MDD group), up to 65 participants will have a diagnosis of MDD and no diagnosis of an AD and up to 65 participants will have no diagnosis of MDD and a diagnosis of at least one AD will be enrolled to participate in an two session study to obtain 150 completers (50 per group). All participants will receive a single dose of Lorazepam and placebo (order randomized) taken orally. After the ~2.5 hr screening session, participants will complete two identical ~5 hr experimental sessions, each of which include a 30 min eyeblink startle session and a 1 hr functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scan session. The total time involved in the study is approximately 10.5 hours. The main questions the study seeks to answer are: are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their eyeblink startle response to threat? are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their brain activation in response to threat? are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their responses to anxiety drugs?

Adolescence is a critical period for the onset and maintenance of anxiety disorders, which raises the importance of intervening early; one possibility of doing so is via digital interventions. At least two lines of research have been explored in the past years in this area. First, studies have tested the anxiolytic effects of casual video games, hypothesizing that, through the induction of flow, these games can effectively distract individuals from anxiety-related thoughts and feelings. Second, the bidirectional link between poor attentional control and higher anxiety has led to the design of novel interventions aiming to improve attentional control such as working memory training studies. Importantly, action video games, classified as a distinct gaming genre, have been shown to enhance attentional control. In this study, we aim to compare the effects of action video game play and casual game play to a no-training group, assessing their potential to alleviate anxiety when delivered entirely online. The goal of this three- arms randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the feasibility of a 6-week video game training intervention to reduce adolescent anxiety-related symptoms. We will also examine the efficacy of the proposed treatment when entirely deployed at adolescents' home.

Social anxiety is associated with significant deficits in social and occupational functioning. The proposed study seeks to evaluate the feasibility of implementing a brief text-based intervention for decreasing social anxiety related safety behaviors among Veterans attempting to re-integrate into the workforce. Findings from this pilot will support a larger randomized controlled study examining the efficacy of the intervention for improving functional outcomes and quality of life among Veterans.

Cardiac surgery patients often undergo anxiousness and pain. Before surgery, anxiety is often caused by the idea of sternotomy, extracorporeal circulation, fear of post-operative pain, and even death. After surgery anxiety and pain can be the consequences of operative and peri-operative procedures. The investigators believe that reducing stress and pain by a relaxation therapy would lead to better stay in hospital and a better recovery after surgery. Music Care® relaxation technique consists into listening to an audio relaxing soundtrack chosen by the patient. This technique has already proven with several clinical studies its efficiency for reducing pain and anxiety in hospital. The research consists of comparing this technique to Peter Hess® sound massage for reducing pain and anxiety. The Peter Hess® sound massage is a holistic relaxation technique that uses sound vibrations generated by therapeutic singing bowls. Patients will be randomized in one of the two groups (Music Care® or Peter Hess®).
