Active clinical trials for "Anxiety Disorders"

This study developed and then compared via randomized trial two brief online interventions targeting increasing treatment-seeking behavior in social anxiety.

A randomized control trial was made to examine the effects of breastfeeding support given by the video-conferencing method in the early postpartum period on anxiety, breastfeeding self-efficiency, and newborn outcomes.

The investigators aimed to investigate the effect of menstrual cycle phases on preoperative anxiety in women under general anesthesia.

This study is evaluating how well a music therapy program works to improve anxiety and stress in adolescents and young adults receiving cancer treatment.

A randomized clinical trial 1:1 among relatives of patients admitted to an intensive care unit, the intervention group will be composed by family members who receive a printed brochure and will be encouraged to visit a website detailed information and plain language about the ICU environment and the critically ill patient characteristics. The primary outcome will be the impact of orientations on symptoms of post-traumatic stress, assessed by the IES-R scale. Secondary outcome measures will include symptoms of anxiety and depression at the end of 7 days and after 3 months of follow-up by the HADS scales, the degree of satisfaction of the relatives, through the FS-ICU scale, as well as the association of resilience, through the CD-RISC scale, with the symptoms of anxiety and depression.

The purpose of this research is to find out how people with epilepsy and possible symptoms of anxiety or depression are doing for 6 months after a regular epilepsy clinic visit. Participants in this study will complete questionnaires either by phone or via the patient portal.

An interventional research study will be undertaken to assess the effectiveness of the promotion at the local level of an e-health tool for suicide and psychological distress prevention (the StopBlues application and website). This trial is a cluster-randomized, parallel group, controlled intervention study with local authorities as the unit of randomization. Local authorities will be randomly assigned to one of the following three arms: local authorities not promoting the e-health tool (control group); local authorities promoting the e-health tool without general practitioners (GPs) involvement; local authorities promoting the e-health tool including GPs' waiting room. The trial will last 24 months and after a 12-month post-randomization period, local authorities from the control group will be allowed for a further 12-month period to launch their promotional campaign supported by the research team through regular contacts and additional technical and financial resources (intensively sustained promotion). This will facilitate the recruitment of clusters as well as their adherence to the intervention during the first 12-month period. The main criterion will be the number of suicidal acts at nine months. Data will be collected both at the local authority level and at the individual e-health tool user level.

Patients often report anxiety and pain related to electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS) which are tests used to look for diseases of the nerves and muscles. Unfortunately, for those with very high levels of test related stress, the experience may be very frightening and may impede completion of the study and negatively impact on making a timely and accurate diagnosis. Several studies have shown that music can improve anxiety and pain levels in various situations and procedures. Our study will allow participants to play music of their choice during EMG and NCS in order to determine if the pain and anxiety that they experience is reduced.

Rationale: Recently, research that demonstrates a clear relationship between the built healthcare environment and the health and wellbeing of patients has come available. Patients in a CT scan suite are usually anxious. The environment has been shown to lower stress; a painting or piece of art for example, can capture and hold attention and thereby lower negative thoughts and evoke positive emotions. Sights of nature have demonstrated to be especially effective in recuperating from stress, presumably because the human brain has evolved in a natural environment. The current study will investigate the effects of exposure to nature in the CT scan suite. A SkyCeiling, a large, slightly illuminated, photographic illusion of a real sky view is placed above the CT scan. The main hypothesis of this study is that a sky view will lead to a lower level of anxiety in the CT scan suite. Objective: The primary objective of this study is to examine the effect of a view of nature on a patient's stress and anxiety. Secondary objectives are to study the effects of a view of nature on a patient's environmental appraisals of the CT suite, satisfaction with the provided service, and trust in the healthcare provider.

This pilot clinical trial studies cognitive behavioral therapy in treating anxiety in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer and their caregivers. Cognitive behavioral therapy may reduce anxiety and improve the well-being and quality of life of patients who have stage IV non-small cell lung cancer and their caregivers.
