简要总结
This study is aimed to evaluate the effects of yoga intervention versus usual care (control group) for reducing stress among people living with HIV in Indonesia.
详细描述
Introduction
Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) continues to be a public health challenge for four decades after the disease appeared. Stress is one of the most common mental health problems that occur among people living with HIV. Yoga is increasingly popular as one of the complementary therapies in health care systems including in nursing. Moreover, much evidence shows that yoga is a promising modality to be used to treat stress and to maintain the health and wellbeing of PLWH.
Purpose: The primary objective in this study is to evaluate the effects of yoga intervention versus usual care (control group) for reducing stress among people living with HIV in Indonesia.
Methods: This study will use a parallel group randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, with single blinding, and repeated measures. Sample will be divided into a yoga intervention group and a routine care group as the control group. In this study, the independent variable is defined as yoga intervention, and the dependent variable is stress. In total, participants who will participate is sixty-six, thirty-three participants in yoga group and thirty-three in control group. The Generalized Estimating Equation will be performed for the data analysis.

结局指标
主要结局
Perceived stress scale (this study will measure the the phenomenon of stress among PLWH using the Perceived Stress Scale developed by Dr. Sheldon Cohen in 1983).
时间窗: (1) Pre-test (before yoga intervention), (2) Post-test one / at the week-eight (after yoga intervention finish), (3) Post-test two for following up (at the week twelve or one month after yoga intervention finish).
The scale uses a 5-point rating scale from never (0) to very often (4) to measure the degree to which a person judges situations in their life to be stressful. This scale contains 10 items. Scores range from 1 to 40, with higher scores reflecting greater perceived stress. This scale has sufficient internal consistency with Cronbach alpha 0.78 (Cohen et al., 1983). The stress will be measured in three different time to see how the yoga intervention change the level of stress of participants, before and after intervention.
次要结局
- Coping Self-Efficacy Scale (The definition of coping self-efficacy is defined based on the concept proposed by Chesney et al in 2006 where they defined coping self-efficacy refers to the capacity to cope effectively with life obstacles.((1) Pre-test (before yoga intervention), (2) Post-test one / at the week-eight (after yoga intervention finish), (3) Post-test two for following up (at the week twelve or one month after yoga intervention finish).)
- The Brief Health status Survey((1) Pre-test (before yoga intervention), (2) Post-test one / at the week-eight (after yoga intervention finish), (3) Post-test two for following up (at the week twelve or one month after yoga intervention finish).)
