Reaching Out to Distressed Medical Residents, Fellows and Faculty

DepressionSuicide

The purpose of this study is to study whether distressed medical residents, fellows, and faculty health professionals benefit from completing online an anonymous and interactive screening of stress, depression, substance use, and suicidal thoughts. The screening and ability to interact online with a clinician anonymously are hypothesized to increase willingness to come for counseling in person. Suicide risk factors are expected to be lower once the distressed medical trainee or faculty member receives treatment.

Quality of Life in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea: The Role of CPAP Associated to Psychological...

Obstructive Sleep ApneaDepressive Symptoms

Many researches have shown that patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and often also the family members have a decreased quality of life, problems related to the sexual sphere, depressive disorders and anxiety problems. To date still remains controversial the relationship between OSA and quality of life, also the link between sleep apnea syndrome and depression is unclear. In adult patients with OSA the treatment of choice is the application of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP: Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) at the opening of the airways. With the CPAP treatment the sleep normalizes and daytime sleepiness fades or disappears. Many studies have shown that this treatment determines improvement of the medical and psychological status. However, the rate of non-adherence to treatment reported in the literature is about 46-83%, considering as adherence the use of CPAP for at least 4 hours per night. A recent study has shown that CPAP used as a single treatment in patients with OSA and depression, has reduced the depressive symptoms but in a significant percentage of patients (42%), the depressive symptoms remained unchanged or worsened. At the present time have not been published, to our knowledge, studies concerning the effectiveness of the combined treatment of CPAP and psychological support on the mood and on the quality of life OSA patients. Therefore the aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the combined treatment with CPAP and psychological intervention with cognitive behavioural therapy on the mood and on the quality of life of OSA patients.

Short-term, Intensive Psychodynamic Group Therapy Versus Cognitive-behavioral Group Therapy in the...

Anxiety DisordersDepressive Disorders1 more

Background: Psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral group therapies are frequently applied in day hospitals in the treatment of anxiety disorders, and comorbid depressive or personality disorders in Poland. There is not enough evidence for its effectiveness in this environment. This study addresses this gap. The aim is to determine the effectiveness of the two kinds of day treatments consisting of intensive, short-term group therapy: psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral for patients with anxiety disorders and comorbid depressive or personality disorders. Our objectives are: 1) Demonstrating effectiveness of each treatment in a day care setting relative to wait-list control; 2) Demonstrating the relative short- and long-term effectiveness of the two active treatments; 3) Preliminary examination of predictors and moderators of treatment response; and 4) Preliminary examination of mediators of therapeutic change; 5) Detailed comparison of impact of both methods of treatment on the outcome of used measures. Methods/design: In this randomized controlled trial, a total of 123 patients with anxiety disorders and comorbid depressive or personality disorders will be assigned to one of three conditions: 1) psychodynamic group therapy; 2) cognitive-behavioral group therapy; 3) waiting list (control group). Therapy will last 12 weeks. Both treatments will be manualized (manuals will address comorbidity). Primary outcome measures are include self-report symptoms of anxiety, observer rated symptoms of anxiety, global improvement and dichotomized diagnosis of anxiety disorder. Secondary outcome measures include personality, depression, self-esteem, defense mechanisms, beliefs about self and others, interpersonal problems, object relations, parental bonding, meta-cognition, mindfulness and quality of life: symptoms of anxiety, depression, personality, self-esteem and defense mechanisms. Measures are taken at baseline, post-treatment and 3 months following the end of the therapy. Discussion: The randomized controlled trial format is used to compare effectiveness of intensive group cognitive-behavior therapy and intensive group psychodynamic therapy for anxiety disorders and comorbid depressive or personality disorders. The rationale is to investigate how effectively anxiety disorders and comorbid personality disorders can be treated in a day hospital typical for Polish healthcare system in 3 months treatment.

Cognitive Control Training as an Adjunct to Behavioral Activation Therapy in the Treatment of Depression...

Depression

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the potential effects of a cognitive training program when combined with a particular form of psychotherapy (behavioral activation therapy) for depression. Behavioral activation therapy targets changes in behavior as a method for improving a depressed individual's thoughts, feelings, and overall quality of life. This study is designed to test whether a computerized brain exercise called cognitive control training can enhance the effects of a 5-session behavioral activation therapy program. CCT has been shown to reduce depressive symptoms in two other studies, but it has not yet been combined with behavioral activation therapy. The investigators hypothesize that individuals assigned to the behavioral activation plus cognitive control training condition will demonstrate reduced depressive symptoms from pre to post treatment compared with those assigned to the behavioral activation plus computerized control condition. The investigators hypothesize that these gains will be maintained at one-month follow up.
