Brief Summary
The goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to evaluate whether the dietary supplement Ansileve (Ansileve SOS spray and Ansileve capsules) can improve psychological well-being and parental functioning in mothers and fathers of children experiencing an acute medical event requiring hospital care. The main questions are:
- Be mothers and fathers (≥18 years) of children admitted for an acute medical event at the Pediatria Immunoreumatologia Unit of the Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico
- Complete validated questionnaires assessing functioning (BIMF, only mothers), emotional impact of the event \[Impact of Event Scale - Revised (IES-R)\], and anxiety symptoms \[Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7)\] at baseline and during follow-up
- Receive either Ansileve SOS spray or placebo spray at study enrolment.
- Take either Ansileve capsules or placebo capsules daily for 30 days according to the assigned treatment group
- Complete a follow-up assessment to evaluate treatment adherence and possible adverse events.
