Brief Summary

HIV/AIDS patients are at risk for depression, a multifactorial disorder with signs and symptoms that affect the cognitive, affective, behavioral, and somatic areas. This study used Randomized Controlled Clinical Trials (RCT). Main hypothesis: A combination of spiritual awareness-based cognitive therapy (MSBCT) plus hypnotic interventions can reduce depression degree scores by reducing cortisol levels and increasing serotonin levels in HIV patients with depression. Small hypothesis

  1. 1.There was a decrease in cortisol levels after being given the MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention in HIV patients with depression;
  2. 2.There was an increase in serotonin levels after being given the MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention in HIV patients with depression;
  3. 3.There was a decrease in depression degree scores after being given the MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention in HIV patients with depression;
  4. 4.There was a higher reduction in cortisol levels in the intervention group compared to the control group in HIV patients with depression;
  5. 5.There was a higher increase in serotonin levels in the intervention group compared to the control group in HIV patients with depression;
  6. 6.There was a higher reduction in scores degree of depression in the intervention group compared to the control group in HIV patients with depression;
  7. 7.Decreased cortisol levels and increased serotonin levels affect depression degree scores in HIV patients with depression;
  8. 8.MSBCT plus hypnosis combination intervention is a factor that can affect depression degree scores reduction in HIV patients with depression;

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Decreased serum cortisol levels

    Serum cortisol levels were measured using the ELISA kit catalog method number CO103S in the GAKI laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University - Semarang - Indonesia

    Before intervention, and 8 weeks after intervention

  • Increased serum serotonin levels

    Serum serotonin levels were measured using the ELISA kit catalog method number E - EL-H0033 in the GAKI laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Diponegoro University - Semarang - Indonesia

    Before intervention, and 8 weeks after intervention

  • Decreased degree scores of depression

    Depression degree scores were measured using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) II

    Before intervention, and 8 weeks after intervention

Study Arms (2)

Intervention group = Combination mindfulness spiritual-based cognitive therapy plus hypnosis

EXPERIMENTAL

Given to the intervention group with a frequency of once a week for eight weeks. Each session for 120 minutes or 2 hours with a set of MSBCT intervention packages resulting from modified mindfulness-based cognitive therapy with using the mindfulness concept of Kabat Zinn and the five-step model of mindfulness developed by Vidyamala Burch.

Behavioral: Combination mindfulness spiritual-based cognitive therapy plus hypnosis

Control group = Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy

EXPERIMENTAL

Given to the control group with a frequency of once a week for eight weeks. Each session is 90 minutes or 1.5 hours with a set of MBCT intervention packages developed by Teasdale, 2014

Behavioral: Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy

Interventions

The intervention was divided into eight components in eight sessions, namely (1) psychoeducation and intention, (2) awareness of breathing mindfulness, (3) body scan, (4) comfort training through daily activity/comfort exercises, (5) self-compassion / having a great soul with acceptance, gratitude, and sincerity, (6) planning happiness through independent healthy behavior targets, (7) independent healthy behavior (8) independent healthy behavior evaluation. Each therapeutic component of each session is further divided into three sub-components, namely psychoeducation, training, and hypnosis.
