Early EMDR Following Covid-19 Critical Illness: A Feasibility Trial — Cov-EMERALD  

Depression Clinical Trial

Official title:
EMERALD: Can a Virtual Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing Intervention Improve Psychological Outcome Following Covid-19 Related Critical Illness: A Feasibility Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

Primary objective is to evaluate the feasibility of delivering an online early Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) Recent Traumatic Events Protocol (R-TEP) to patients who have survived Covid-19 related critical illness, within the context of a randomised controlled trial (RCT). This will inform the design of a future RCT investigating the effectiveness of EMDR R-TEP in reducing psychological symptoms, for adult survivors of intensive care.

Clinical Trial Description

A significant number of patients worldwide, have been admitted to intensive care suffering from Covid-19 related organ failure. Patients who survive a period of critical illness have a disproportionately high chance of suffering from significant and persistant poor psychological outcomes. Eye-Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) has reduced incidence of psychological morbidity in war veterans and victims of man-made and natural disasters. Small studies have also shown it to be effective in healthcare settings, within the Emergency department, following cancer diagnosis and implantation of cardioverter defibrillators. EMDR is validated by UK National Institute of Clinical Excellence guidance for use in treating adult onset PTSD. Because of ongoing social distancing guidance our study programme aims to investigate whether it is feasible to treat patients with an early online Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) intervention, delivered soon after hospital discharge and whether this intervention will improve psychological outcome for survivors of critical illness. ;
