Active clinical trials for "Psychophysiologic Disorders"

Menopausal syndromes includes somatic symptom, psychosomatic symptoms, sexual dysfunction and even urinary symptoms. Hormone therapy (HT) is widely used for controlling menopausal symptoms. Common HT for menopausal syndrome with intact uterus includes tibolone, estradiol valerate (E2V) 1mg & medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) 2.5 mg, and conjugated equine estrogens & MPA. However, only a few literatures mentioned about the therapeutic effect of tibolone, but lack of comparison research about their therapeutic effect on somatic symptoms, psychosomatic symptoms, sexual dysfunction and even urinary symptoms. The knowledge of the above therapeutic effects should be important for choosing a suitable medication. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the therapeutic effect on somatic symptoms, psychosomatic symptoms, sexual dysfunction and even urinary symptoms between tibolone and E2V/MPA.

More and more people suffer from stress-related illness and ailments that can greatly affect the individual's experienced quality of life and sense of coping since pain, physical, mental and social functioning are closely linked. Many of these people will seek primary care for help, and thus be referred to the Norwegian psychomotor physiotherapy (NPMP) performed by physiotherapists in primary care. Data shows that for the first three months of 2009, 42% of patients were referred to NPMP had a musculoskeletal diagnosis as the first diagnosis, often in the form of long-term and comprehensive pain problems. Many of the patients also had emotional difficulties, but without being diagnosed with mental illness. 23% of patients who were referred to NPMP had a psychiatric diagnosis as the first diagnosis. The full range of psychiatric diagnoses are represented, but the majority of patients were treated for anxiety and depression. The investigators want to let people who have had NPMP treatment to consider what effect the treatment has given, measured by separate registrations of quality of life, pain, physical, mental and social functioning.

Hypothesis The supportive psychotherapy model can be structured and developed for the non-pharmacologic therapy of acute coroner syndrome patients in intensive cardiac care unit The development of the supportive psychotherapy model can provide an improvement in psychological function in the form of a reduction in symptoms of anxiety, depression, and an improvement in the quality of life of acute coroner syndrome patients during treatment at intensive cardiac care unit. Psycho-patho-mechanization of supportive psychotherapy model development in the improvement of psychosomatic function of acute coroner syndrome patients by assessing the improvement of serotonin, cortisol, and immunoglobulin-A levels, and, Development of the supportive psychotherapy model can provide improvement in somatic function in the form of decreased complications such as arrhythmias, pericarditis, chronic heart failure, shock and death of acute coronary syndrome patients during treatment. Psychosomatic improvements, namely anxiety, depression, and cardiac complications associated with levels of serotonin, cortisol, immunoglobulin-A and heart rate variability.

As a result of the pandemic, hygiene and distancing rules must be followed in Health care/ rehabilitation clinics to ensure the safety of patients and staff. This has led to extensive changes in the therapy processes, including a reduction in group sizes and maintaining distances within the groups, resulting in a reduction in the range of therapies available to individuals, since the number of employees remains unchanged and cannot be increased at will and in the short term due to the lack of qualified staff. In order for the treatment/rehabilitation goals to be achieved nonetheless, new forms of implementation of therapy programs must be developed in addition to organizational adjustments. Digitalization can be a significant support in this respect. The majority of patients in psychosomatic rehabilitation possess smartphones, meaning that the necessary infrastructure for the utilization of digital offers is available and can be used to the greatest possible extent. The use of digital measures within the therapeutic services supports the independence of the patients, as they can use the digital offers independently and flexibly in their own time. How should Health care/rehabilitation services be designed in light of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic and which services have the potential to buffer future crises: What general recommendations can be derived for the design of such services for routine care? What are support measures to encourage social participation and return to work?

The general objective of this study is to determine the indicators of suitability, clinical utility and satisfaction of the transdiagnostic online intervention for the treatment of emotional disorders and those derived from stress and trauma in a Mexican community sample. The specific aims are: To Carry out a screening evaluation from the transdiagnostic model by evaluating clinical indicators (depression, anxiety, acute / post-traumatic stress, emotional regulation strategies, intolerance to uncertainty) and that allow determining the frequency, intensity and severity of cases identified by type of emotional problem. Measure the fidelity of the use of the intervention manual in each treatment condition. Evaluate the degree of satisfaction, acceptance, complexity and modality of the transdiagnostic intervention. To know the degree of suitability of the transdiagnostic intervention from the point of view of therapists and supervisors in relation to the problems of the studied sample and the recommendations for its improvement. To compare the clinical utility of the transdiagnostic intervention via the internet for the treatment of emotional disorders and those derived from stress and trauma against the efficacy of the CBT intervention and the waiting list group.

Background: Physiotherapists (PTs) in primary health care manage patients with a large variation in medical diagnosis, age, functional status, disability and prognosis. Lack of knowledge and systematically collected data about patients treated by PTs in primary health care has prompted this longitudinal observational physiotherapy project in Norway. This paper aims to describe a method for developing a database of patients managed by PTs in primary health care to study patients' characteristics, treatment courses and prognostic factors. The study is a longitudinal observational project, following patients through physiotherapy treatment periods in primary health care in Norway and until one year after inclusion. The project involves both private practice and municipally employed PTs working in primary health care in eight municipalities in Norway. The participants are recruited to three different parts of the project depending on age and whether they are referred to a private practice or a municipally employed PT. All data are recorded electronically, transferred and stored securely. All patients complete extensive questionnaires providing information about demographics, disability and function, pain related variables, treatment and evaluation of treatment as well as clinical tests. The PTs have access to their own patients' data. The investigators have also prepared for linkage to national patient registers and population-based studies to be able to gather further important data. This project will have important implications for physiotherapy services in primary health care. The database already contains almost 3000 patients, and data collection is ongoing. Preliminary analyses suggest that the patients included so far are representative of the larger population of patients treated by private practice or municipally employed PTs in Norway. This large scale prospective physiotherapy project will provide knowledge about the patient groups treated, treatment given as well as short and long term outcome of the patients.

Post-/long-COVID occurs in patients with severe, moderate, and even mild courses. The symptomatology is multi-layered and complex. Patients with mild and moderate courses and especially younger patients are not optimally integrated into one of the existing care structures of COVID outpatient clinics and regular primary care. The diagnosis of post-/long-COVID and a consequent targeted treatment are currently partly not ensured. The variability of symptoms and the resulting complexity of diagnosis and treatment also pose a challenge in rural areas. The aim of the project is an evaluation of a program for low-threshold needs identification and treatment planning for a hybrid (personal supporting counselors and digital trainings) post-/long-COVID care. The contents of the present project include an innovative basis outside the existing standard care for the identification of affected persons. This will be done by means of a low-threshold online screening, which can also be carried out by the affected persons themselves. Furthermore, an intensive interdisciplinary assessment linked to medical rehabilitation resulting in a comprehensive, interdisciplinary, and cross-sectoral treatment plan is a core component of the current project. Finally, the implementation of digital trainings which are accompanied by a personal supporting counselor and augmented by continuously available trainings in the form of digital modules aim to provide general recommendation for the future support of post/long-COVID care. The current research project aims to evaluate the feasibility and the practicability of a comprehensive, interdisciplinary, and cross-sectoral treatment program consisting of a low-threshold online screening and holistic assessment for PACS. Furthermore, it aims to evaluate digital interventions and the use of so-called personal guides that may help to facilitate the recovery of PACS.

Cases of physical and psychological stress problems is the need to prevent the risk of depression, primary care model will help to prevent depression. Many scholars have advocated for depression treatment not only concern symptom control and relief, prevention of recurrence should also be aware. The literature found cases had depression, with cognitive strategy bias , may cause recurrence of depression, under the influence of stress. The study was to assist the physical and mental disorder patient caused by stress and depression patient having cognitive and emotional regulation, and increased adapting Ability by ongoing two separate treatment groups ,Mindfulness-based Cognitive Group Therapy and psycho-physiological stress regulation Group Therapy. In addition, psychological groups can also help regulation daily Trivia stress, study will try to know about how group therapy's effects on patient's immune system.Research has three purposes,to validation 2 group model's results in assisting psycho-physiological stressed and depression patient, to establish group leader training center and prepare groups' standard procedure manuals,and to understand the patient's psycho-physical stress reaction on the immune system and fat cell hormone.

The purpose of this observational multicenter-study is to investigate safety of psychopharmacological treatment and rates of adverse drug reactions in gerontopsychiatric inpatients. Elderly people are at higher risk for developing side effects under pharmacological treatment due to an altered metabolic situation, higher comorbidity rates and often polypharmacy. Furthermore gerontopsychiatric patients can often not articulate their symptoms clearly, for example due to pronounced cognitive impairment. The aim of the study is to gain valid data of possible adverse drug reaction rates, their potential risk factors and outcome, as well as medical prescription practises. To assess these outcomes an intensive pharmacovigilance-monitoring will be conducted at the five participating study sites. At Baseline demographic data, previous and present disorders, use of drugs, previous and present medication, quality of life, cognitive function, physical examination results, laboratory results and ECG will be assessed. Afterwards patients are visited weekly and screened for possible adverse drug reactions. All adverse drug reactions will be coded in the MedDRA-system. In case of a possible serious adverse drug reaction serum levels of all psychotropic substances applicated will be assessed. Drug combinations will be analysed using an established advanced bioinformatic tool (mediQ). Diagnosis, medication intake and possible adverse drug reactions are documented continually. 2 weeks after discharge from the ward, patients will be contacted by phone to assess catamnestic data.
