Intellectual Disability Clinical Trial
Official title:
Mindfulness Based Intervention for Individuals With Intellectual Disabilities and Their Care Givers: A Pilot Trial
The proposed study is a pre-post intervention study to investigate the acceptability and feasibility of a mindfulness based program for people with intellectual disabilities and their caregivers in a low income setting in Pakistan.
In Pakistan, prevalence of intellectual disability is 19.1/1000 severe intellectual
disability and 65/1000 for mild level of intellectual disability. Disability not only affects
the individual but also the family in general and caretaker specifically.
Several researches proved that parents of children with disabilities experience number of
problems related to parenting stress. There is a dire need to develop feasible,
cost-effective, community level interventions, that would augment existing healthcare
systems.
Mindfulness as a relatively new therapeutic strategy, has not been practiced as far as
individuals with intellectual disability are concerned. This study aims to explore the
feasibility and acceptability of mindfulness-based strategies for individuals with
intellectual disability and their care takers in improving their well-being. A sample of 12
participants will be recruited from rehabilitation centers. The study will be conducted in
Karachi. The group intervention will consist of twelve sessions; approx. 90-minutes per
session weekly. therapy logswill be used to measure feasibility and acceptability of the
intervention and the full Psychological Therapies Outcome Scale - intellectual disabilities
(PTOS)-ID (psychological distress and positive well-being scales) will be used as secondary
outcome measure. In addition, the positive well-being section of the PTOS-ID will also be
administered at session 3 and 6 as an interim measure of well-being.
Baseline assessment will be done following the consent. Post assessments will be conducted at
the end of intervention (at 3 months).
