Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to assess the effectiveness of PRATICAdr 2.0, a web application facilitated by a Return-to-Work Coordinator (RTW-C), with a focus on reducing sick leave duration and preventing relapse in individuals with CMDs. PRATICAdr 2.0 designed to enhance collaboration among Return-to-Work (RTW) stakeholders and provide systematic support throughout the RTW process, is evaluated in a randomized control trial (RCT). As part of the RCT, a total of 80 sick leave employees from 4 large public health organizations (n=80, 40 from the experimental group and 40 from the control group) will be recruited. The control group receives usual services offered by a RTW-C to sick leave employees, while the experimental group receives RTW-C services plus the use of PRATICAdr 2.0.


Clinical Trial Description

Common mental disorders (CMDs) are highly prevalent in workplace settings, and have become a significant public health challenge. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of PRATICAdr 2.0, a web application facilitated by a Return-to-Work Coordinator (RTW-C), with a focus on reducing sick leave duration and preventing relapse in individuals with CMDs. PRATICAdr 2.0 designed to enhance collaboration among Return-to-Work (RTW) stakeholders and provide systematic support throughout the RTW process, is evaluated in a randomized control trial (RCT). As part of the RCT, a total of 80 sick leave employees from 4 large public health organizations (n=80, 40 from the experimental group and 40 from the control group) will be recruited. The control group receives usual services offered by a RTW-C to sick leave employees, while the experimental group receives RTW-C services plus the use of PRATICAdr 2.0. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the PRATICAdr 2.0 experimental group or the control group using computerized stratified randomization based on age, site, and sex (sealed envelope method). Participants will complete a series of online questionnaires at several following time points. Survival analyses were used to compare sick leave durations and relapses between the experimental group (PRATICAdr with RTW-C), and control groups (RTW-C only). Mixed linear models were used to observe changes in clinical symptoms over time, especially for the experimental group. ;
