Clinical Trial Summary

Affective disorders are associated with impaired functioning and quality of life, as well as comorbid somatic disorders and increased mortality. Despite different medical and psychological treatment options, the prognosis for affective disorder remains largely unchanged. Consequently, the field needs new intervention strategies especially targeting the patient groups having impaired functioning. The core idea of the AWARE project is to focus on improving functioning and quality of life in patients with affective disorders every-day life using a comprehensive 360 degrees intervention. The trial has a randomized, controlled, parallel-group design. Study participants will be 140 outpatients, male or female age 18-65 with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder or unipolar disorder, in a current state of remission, with an objectively rated impaired functioning. Participant will be randomized to six month AWARE intervention or treatment as usual (TAU). Assessments encompassing Activities of Daily Living (ADL), neuropsychological testing, mood ratings, physical health and questionnaires on subjective cognitive complaints, psychosocial functioning, quality of life are, sleep quality and satisfaction with psychiatric treatment are carried out at baseline and after the end of treatment. Discussion: It is hypothesised that the AWARE arm in comparison with standard care will improve observed ability to perform Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and improve Quality of Life.


Description:

Despite different medical and psychological treatment options, the prognosis for affective disorder remains largely unchanged. Consequently, the field needs new intervention strategies especially targeting the patient groups having impaired functioning. The core idea in the AWARE project is to focus on improving functioning and quality of life in patients with affective disorders every-day life using a comprehensive 360 degrees intervention. The present AWARE intervention represent an integrated treatment avenue to improve functioning in patients with affective disorders. The aim of the study is, in a pragmatically Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT), to investigate the effect of a 360 degrees intervention based on the ICF Brief Core Set for BD and unipolar disorder targeting functioning. The participants will upon inclusion, be randomised to participate in either 6 months AWARE treatment or standard care. The control group will receive standard care consisting of the standard out-patient mental health service routines in The Capital Region of Denmark. The AWARE intervention targets multiple aspects of the described enhancers of functioning based on on the ICF Brief Core Set, including ADL ability as a part of carrying out daily routines. The study carried out in a randomized design. The investigators who assess the patients are blinded to whether the patient has participated in the active or passive treatment arm, so the results will be valid. In addition, validated standardized survey methods according to all the outcomes is applied.
