PTSD Clinical Trial
Official title:
Mind-Body Treatment for WTC Responders With Comorbid PTSD and Respiratory Illness
Many responders to the World Trade Center (WTC) disaster continue to experience significant mental and physical health problems. Two of the most common health problems, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms and respiratory illness, often occur together. Mental health conditions, such as PTSD, make physical illnesses worse and interfere with treatment. The primary goal of this study is to test a mind-body treatment designed to reduce both PTSD and respiratory symptoms.
Mind-body interventions including relaxation training and other coping skills are effective
for patients with both mental and physical health problems. A leading mind-body treatment is
the Relaxation Response Resiliency Program (3RP) developed at Harvard. This treatment has
been shown to reduce both mental and physical health symptoms.
The objective of this study is to adapt the 3RP to WTC responders and test its ability to
reduce both PTSD and respiratory symptoms. This treatment will be compared to a Health
Enhancement Program that addresses negative health behaviors. The investigators will
randomly assign 175 patients with ongoing WTC-related PTSD and respiratory illness to the
3RP or Health Enhancement Program and will assess outcomes immediately after the treatment
and at 3 and 6 month follow-ups.
