Brief Summary

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

The cases of COVID-19 are continuing to be confirmed around the world. In the clinical settings, the nurses in evacuation acute wards are main responsibility to undertake the care of emergency patient follow-up and suspected or confirmed COVID-19 cases. Those nurses have to face the high psychological pressure, unknown panic, fear and so on. Thus, the study plans to invite nurses who are working in evacuation acute wards to participate the project called "Remote Psychological Support Group (RPSG)". The study supposes "RPSG" could improve nurses' self-efficacy, fear of COVID-19, psychological distress, and quality of life.

Detailed Description

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

The cases of COVID-19 are continuing to be confirmed around the world. In the clinical settings, the nurses in evacuation acute wards are main responsibility to undertake the care of emergency patient follow-up and suspected or confirmed COVID-19 cases. Those nurses have to face the high psychological pressure, unknown panic, fear and so on. Thus, the study plans to invite nurses who are working in evacuation acute wards to participate the project called "Remote Psychological Support Group (RPSG)". The results of this study will establish the effectiveness of RPSG intervention for nurses on self-efficacy, fear of COVID-19, psychological distress, and quality of life and identify the feasibility of the RPSG. The results are also critical to improving the quality of care for nurses during the COVID-19 outbreak and the RPSG model will establish an important basis for support group in the event of other Severe Pneumonia with Novel Pathogens in the future.

Study Groups

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

Remote Psychological Support Group

The study will invite nurses through QR code on line, and assess their background, self-efficacy, fear of COVID-19, psychological distress, and quality of life by questionnaires first. Then four evacuation acute wards (A, B, C, and D) will be randomly allocated, and the two wards will be drawn out as experimental group ward. Each group will be followed for 2 months and their outcomes will be assessed at 3 time points: baseline (pre-RPSG) (T0), and 4 (T1), 8 (T2) weeks after-RPSG, T0-T2, respectively.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

RPSG

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The RPSG program include sharing successful experience, progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR). The duration is at last 8 weeks and includes 1 hour per week of RPSG activities.

AVMBM

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The duration is also at last 8 weeks and includes encouraging to use "5 minutes Audio and Video Mindfulness of Breathing Meditation (AVMBM)" per week.

Mindfulness through audio and video

The study will invite nurses through QR code on line, and assess their background, self-efficacy, fear of COVID-19, psychological distress, and quality of life by questionnaires first. Then four evacuation acute wards (A, B, C, and D) will be randomly allocated, and the two wards will be drawn out as experimental group ward. Each group will be followed for 2 months and their outcomes will be assessed at 3 time points: baseline (pre-RPSG) (T0), and 4 (T1), 8 (T2) weeks after-RPSG, T0-T2, respectively.
