Low Earth Orbit Communication Satellites: A Positively Disruptive Technology That Could Change the Delivery of Health Care in Rural and Northern Canada

The current solution to providing health care in these remote locations has been to transport the patient to the health care provider or vice versa, which incurs considerable financial strain on our health care system and personal stress to the patient and provider. One of the most stressful concerns is the danger and futility of unnecessary transport and the higher crash rates of medical evacuation flights [9].

Exploring Stress and Stress-Reduction With Caregivers and Clinicians in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to Inform Intervention Development: Qualitative Interview Study

This study’s methodology was grounded in an essentialist and realist epistemology (that a reality exists independently of researcher beliefs or interpretations) [20] and informed by existing stress theory, including the situational stress model [21], on which the validated PSS:NICU (Parental Stress Scale: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) was developed [22]. We used the framework method of thematic analysis, a qualitative method commonly used in applied health research [23].

Cooperative Virtual Reality Gaming for Anxiety and Pain Reduction in Pediatric Patients and Their Caregivers During Painful Medical Procedures: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Hence, the patient’s anxiety and stress can complicate treatment procedures and interfere with the healing process [2-4]. As a result, it is a common practice to sedate patients by administering medication. However, the use of such medication is associated with additional health risks [5], particularly in the context of child development [6]. An additional factor that can influence the emotional experience of child patients is their caregivers, in most cases a parent.

Employers’ Perspectives of Caregiver-Friendly Workplace Policies for Caregiver-Employees Caring for Older Adults in Hong Kong: Thematic Analysis

Thus, several studies have investigated the impact of caregiver-friendly workplace policies (CFWPs) on CEs, which have been associated with the improved overall health of CEs by reducing occupational and overall stress, minimizing work interruptions, and improving performance [22,25-29]. There are also direct economic benefits accruing from adopting CFWPs. For example, educating CEs about their caregiving activities generates a net benefit ranging from US $48,010 to US $675,657 for CEs and employers [30].

Stress and Hypertension Among African American Female Family Caregivers of Persons Living With Alzheimer Disease and Related Dementias: Protocol for a Pilot Internet-Based Randomized Controlled Trial

One of the underlying mechanisms behind adopting healthy self-care behaviors is stress reactivity or resilience—the body’s psychological and physiological response to stress [13]. Understanding these factors can contribute to more effective and sustainable behavior changes such as healthy eating, stress management, and physical activity. Only a few studies have explored the stress and resilience associated with healthy self-care behaviors among African American caregivers.
