Filter by:This is a multicenter retrospective study to investigate the dosage regimens of sertraline in the treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) under current medical practice and the efficacy and safety of this drug in patients with PTSD. Data will be collected from the medical records of patients with PTSD.
The goals of this project are - 1) to evaluate the effectiveness of a CBT treatment module addressing the mental health and functional impact of killing in the war zone, - 2) to gather data on Veteran stakeholders' perceptions of acceptability and feasibility of the CBT treatment module, which would be used to further refine the intervention, and - 3) to gather data on clinician stakeholders' perceptions of acceptability and feasibility of the CBT treatment module, which would be used to ensure that the module could be easily integrated into EBT for PTSD.
The purpose of this study is to determine if eszopiclone relative to placebo (sugar pill) is effective and tolerable for people with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)-related sleep disturbance. The investigators will also examine the impact of treatment on sleep patterns, memory recall bias, and level of inflammatory markers (cytokines). The investigators predict eszopiclone will lead to greater improvement than placebo in measures of PTSD symptoms, memory recall bias, and level of inflammatory markers.
The aim of this R34 study is to develop and test the feasibility of a Stepped Care intervention for young children with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Phase I will focus on developing and testing the feasibility of Stepped Care Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (SC-TF-CBT) in a small open trial (N=10). Phase II will consist of a randomized controlled trial (N=54) examining the efficacy of SC-TF-CBT relative to standard Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)on a number of outcome measures, treatment acceptability and satisfaction, and costs of treatment delivery. Findings from this pilot study will establish the feasibility and preliminary efficacy (see Kraemer et al., 2006) of SC-TF-CBT before progressing to a larger, randomized R01 to examine the effectiveness of SC-TF-CBT for early childhood PTSD.
The specific aims of this study are: 1. To compare the effectiveness of a cognitive behavioral therapy (prolonged exposure, PE) to that of PE and medication (sertraline). 2. To compare the durability of PE gains to that of PE and sertraline at 3, 6, and 9 months post-treatment. 3. To compare those who have chosen their treatment to those who have not in terms of completion of treatment, treatment satisfaction, and short- and long-term effectiveness of the treatment. 4. To examine cost effectiveness of treatment delivery to trauma survivors with PTSD.
The objective of this study is to determine whether participation in a mind-body skills program by war-traumatized adolescents in Gaza will result in improvement of posttraumatic stress symptoms, depression, and levels of aggression compared to a control group.
The objective of this study is to determine whether participation in a mind-body skills program by war-traumatized children in Gaza will result in improvement of posttraumatic stress symptoms, depression, and decreased hopelessness compared to a control group.
The objective of this study is to determine whether participation in a mind-body skills program by war-traumatized adults in Gaza will result in improvement of posttraumatic stress symptoms and depression, and will increase posttraumatic growth compared to a control group.
Trauma-informed treatment will improve emotional regulation and behavior.
The main objective of this study is to compare the rate of reported anxiety / depression (HADS >= 8) among spouses and other family members in ICU patients.
