A Controlled Study on Fighting Against Anxiety in Older People Through an Educational Audio Programme. (ECLIPSE)
EXPLORATORY, PROSPECTIVE, MONO-CENTRIC, RANDOMISED, CONTROLLED, OPEN LABEL, STUDY EVALUATING BENEFITS OF A DIGITAL AUDIO PROGRAMME ON ANXIETY IN AGED CARE HOMES' RESIDENTS
In residential care homes for the elderly, safeguarding the mental and emotional health of aged people is a key factor in their well-being and the quality of care they receive. Among these disorders, anxiety plays a central role. Furthermore, in aged people, anxiety is frequently associated with other psychological and functional vulnerabilities, notably depression and sleep disorders, with which it frequently interacts. Taken together, these factors contribute to a cycle of emotional, cognitive and functional vulnerability that can impair the well-being of residents in care homes. In light of these challenges, non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs), which have the potential to reduce anxiety and depression and improve sleep, represent a particularly promising complementary approach and are attracting growing interest in the care of aged people living in care homes. The Simone Veil Gerontology Institute and Care Home of Cannes Hospital wishes to offer its residents a sound immersion programme as part of their standard care. The audio content is sourced from the SOMEO Life digital platform, an audio-guided application accessible via wireless headphones connected to a tablet or smartphone, allowing for individual or group use. This application offers pre-recorded sessions on relaxation, guided breathing and sophrology tailored to aged people living in care homes. In this context, this study aims to explore and evaluate, within a pragmatic and institutional framework, the benefits of an audio-guided sound immersion programme (SOMEO Life platform) on the current levels of anxiety among residents living in care homes. Depressive symptoms, sleep disorders and the use of anti-anxiety medication will also be assessed.
An exploratory, prospective, single-centre, randomised, controlled, open-label study evaluating the benefits of a digital audio programme on anxiety in elderly people in care homes is implemented. Forty patients will be recruited (twenty per groups) and followed-up during 3 months.
Primary objective is to determine whether adding an audio-guided sound immersion programme to standard care reduces the current level of anxiety (state anxiety) in patients in residential care homes for the elderly. Study endpoint is State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-Y), specifically the State Anxiety (Y-A) subscale.
