Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators provide biofeedback training to assist the abused PW nurses to reduce WPV-related stress and achieve better resilience and mental health. The research project will assess the participants' physiological indices prior to the intervention as well as their levels of resilience and mental status.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This was a quasi-experimental study, structured questionnaires of Resilience Score, The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) and Occupational Stress Indicator-2 were used in this study before and three months after intervention. A total of 112 abused psychiatric nurses were randomly assigned to 3 groups. The biofeedback group (n=40) received the biofeedback training and the self-training group received video relaxation training by Line (n=44). The control group (n=28) did not receive any intervention.

Biofeedback training is an effective intervention to enhance abused PW nurses' resilience and lower their depressive symptoms. Video relaxation self-training is also an effective way to strengthen abused psychiatric nurses' resilience.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Interventional

EEG Recording The one-channel EEG sensor was recorded from Cz with linked-ear reference based on the International 10-20 system. EEG signals were recorded using BioGraph Infiniti software (Version 6.0.4, n.d.) with a band-pass between 1-30 Hz. The sample rate was 256 Hz with 60-Hz notch filters, and the electrode impedances were lower than 5 kΩ.

A lead II electrocardiogram (ECG) was collected for 5 minutes at baseline using the ProComp InfinitiTM system (Thought Technology Ltd., Montreal, Canada), which was installed on a laptop. A sampling rate of 2,048/second was set in order to acquire real-time interbeat intervals.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The aim of this study was to explore the abused PW nurses who receiving bio-feedback training as an intervention improve, and change of physiological indicators before and after intervention (3 months later), which included Respiratory Rate (RR), skin conduction (SC), heart rate variability (HRV), and resilience.
