1. A Study Using Virtual Reality to Reduce Intra-procedural Anxiety and Sedation Needs During Procedures with No or Minimal Sedation

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether or not a virtual reality device will reduce anxiety and need for sedation in procedures with no or minimal sedation.

2. A Study of Mood Symptoms in Epilepsy Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to track neuropsychiatric symptoms in patients with epilepsy.

3. Patterns of Co-use of Nicotine and Cannabis Electronic Cigarettes, and Its Association with Perceived Social Support in Young Adults

   Eau Claire, Wis.

   The purposes of this study are to determine the relationship between the use of e-cigarette and perceived social support in young adults, to characterize the pattern of co-use of nicotine and cannabis e-cigarette in young adults, and to identify if co-use of nicotine and cannabis e-cigarettes is a risk factor for use of combustible forms of tobacco and cannabis.

    

4. Adolescent Biomarker Guided rTMS

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to gather information regarding the use of rTMS as a treatment for depression in adolescents with Major Depressive Disorder. The investigators also hope to learn if measures of brain activity (cortical excitability and inhibition) collected with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be used to identify which patients will benefit from certain types of rTMS treatment. 

5. A Study to Evaluate Women's Birth Experience and Postpartum Mental Health Outcomes

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to implement a facilitated peer support group for women that have experienced an unexpected birth process in the last 12 months. 

6. A Study of Factors That Predispose, Promote, and Perpetuate Post-Traumatic Dizziness

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to investigate whether recent, groundbreaking discoveries about key pathophysiologic processes that drive chronic dizziness in patients without traumatic brain injury (TBI9,10) are applicable to patients with post-mTBI vestibular disability. We expect the results of this project to have practical clinical and research applications, providing novel data for two future steps:

7. A Study to Evaluate Compensatory Training to Support Everyday Function and Adherence to Brain Healthy Lifestyle Changes in Those at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease

   Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

   The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate acceptability of a combination compensation development and lifestyle modification program for brain health in those with subjective cognitive complaint without objective impairment measured by: a) the proportion of invited participants who chose to enroll; and b) quantitative and qualitative program satisfaction ratings.

8. A Study to Research Epilepsy in Adolescent Clinical Transitions

   Rochester, Minn.

   The primary aims of this study are to 1) evaluate the acceptability of implementing a novel transition program for adolescents with epilepsy; 2) evaluate the needs of patients and their families as they prepare for transition from pediatric to adult care; and 3) improve transition readiness and outcomes in youths with epilepsy.

9. A Study to Determine Whether Ongoing Assessment Aids Treatment

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purposes of this study are to summarize clinician evaluations of the NNDC battery in the single clinic where the adult battery is currently being administered to adolescents, to determine patient and clinician level of interest in using the NNDC battery in clinics where the adult battery is not currently being administered to adolescent patients (n=14), to measure change in evaluation 3 months post-implementation for any sites that begin administering the NNDC battery to adolescents, and to generate potential new Child and Adolescent Mood Disorders Interest Group (CAMDIG) research protocols for future consideration.

10. A Study to Evaluate a Primary Care-Based Intervention for Adolescent Restrictive Eating Disorders

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, usability, and preliminary outcomes of a treatment protocol (FBT-PC) for PCP management of adolescent restrictive eating disorders.
