A Blended Intervention for Adjustment Disorder.

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility (including usability and satisfaction) and preliminary effectiveness of a blended intervention for Adjustment Disorder. This intervention combines a self-applied Internet-based program (TAO) with face-to-face sessions with a therapist via videoconference.

Clinical Trial Description

Adjustment disorder (AjD) is one of the most commonly diagnosed disorders in clinical practice. However, although there is still no evidence-based treatment for this problem, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the most studied. Internet-based treatments emerge as an alternative to reach more people in need while reducing intervention costs. However, high drop-out rates in this format highlight the need to develop new ways of delivering treatments. The present study aims to test a blended treatment for AjD that combines a self-applied CBT programme online (TAO: Adjustment Disorder Online) with face-to-face sessions with a therapist via videoconference every 10-12 days. Only one treatment group has been included and patients will be evaluated at pre-treatment, post-treatment and follow-up (3 and 12 months). The study will be conducted following the extension of the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement for pilot and feasibility studies (Eldridge et al., 2016), the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials of Electronic and Mobile Health Applications and online TeleHealth guidelines (Eysenbach, 2011), and the Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials (SPIRIT) guidelines (Chan et al., 2013a; 2013b). Specific objectives of the study include: (1) To analyse the feasibility of different recruitment and data collection methods (e.g., how broad or restrictive are the eligibility criteria, how willing are patients to participate, time needed to collect data), (2) To explore reasons for non-participation and drop-outs from treatment, (3) To assess patient satisfaction and acceptance of treatment (both quantitatively and qualitatively), (4) In addition, as a secondary objective to explore the potential effectiveness of the treatment at post-treatment and follow-up. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
