Filter by:Double-blind placebo controlled study of Cannabidiol (CBD) for symptoms of PTSD in adults using liquid structure(TM) Formulation (Nantheia ATL5(TM)). Subjects complete 3 weeks of baseline data collection including assessments of activity and sleep. Intervention is Nantheia ATL5 or placebo. Dose is initiated at 400mg BID and maintained over 8 weeks. Standardized symptom profile measurements, clinician assessments, laboratory testing, collection of inflammatory biomarkers, and suicide screening is completed throughout. Age- and gender-matched healthy population subjects are enrolled and complete baseline data collection only. All subjects may complete optional procedures of driving assessments and functional MRI (fMRI).
The overall goal of this randomized controlled trial with partial crossover is to compare the effectiveness of 1-week virtual massed Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to 5-day virtual relaxation training (RT) with regard to their ability to reduce posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. Specifically, this study is designed to 1) examine changes in PTSD symptoms during and following the respective intervention, and 2) explore possible psychological treatment mechanisms, including cognitive control, inhibition, self-efficacy, and memory, and 3) examine possible moderators of treatment success (e.g. neuropsychological factors).
To assess the Flash version of EMDR in reductions of the disturbance of upsetting memories at post-intervention, and 1-month follow up within a double-blinded, online 2-arm randomized controlled trial (RCT) with self-report outcomes. We will assess 45 per group, adequate for the detection of a medium effect size. This double-blinded, RCT will assess the comparative efficacy of these two online interventions designed to reduce memory disturbance.
We plan to study the reach, effectiveness, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of the virtually-delivered Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (v-SKY) intervention. We will study effectiveness by comparing the effects of v-SKY to a waitlist control in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with Canadian military and RCMP veterans with PTSD. Effects of the intervention on PTSD symptom severity, depression, pain, anxiety, and quality of life will be evaluated. We will evaluate the reach, adoption, implementation, and maintenance of the v-SKY intervention amongst veterans, SKY instructors, health professionals, and administrators by interviewing RCT participants, instructors, health professionals, and administrators that work with veterans. Evaluating implementation of a virtual intervention is relevant in both pandemic and post-pandemic contexts where virtual interventions may continue to be more available and possibly preferred by patients and clients.
This study will examine the use brief prolonged exposure (Brief PE) therapy compared to standard clinical care to reduce posttraumatic distress among people who have had a spinal cord injury and are receiving rehabilitation in an inpatient setting.
For this protocol, the investigators plan to collect pilot data to: 1. establish the feasibility and safety of administering brexanolone to individuals with concurrent Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).
This randomized trial will compare a novel treatment, Acceptance of the Behavioral Changes to Treat Insomnia (ABC-I) to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) among Veterans with comorbid Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and insomnia disorder. ABC-I combines the behavioral components of CBT-I with components of another behavioral therapy (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and has been shown to improve treatment adherence. The study objectives are: 1) to evaluate the benefits of ABC-I in reducing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms among Veterans with comorbid PTSD and insomnia disorder compared to CBT-I, and 2) to evaluate the effectiveness of ABC-I in improving insomnia symptoms and sleep quality among Veterans with comorbid PTSD and insomnia disorder as compared to CBT-I. Veterans with insomnia and comorbid PTSD who receive care at Sepulveda and West Los Angeles facilities will be recruited for the study. Those who pass an initial eligibility screen will be enrolled and written informed consent will be obtained. A baseline assessment will be completed that includes measures of sleep, PTSD, and quality of life. Veterans who meet all eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to the ABC-I (n=100) or CBT-I (n=100) treatment. Both treatments will be provided in 5 one-on-one sessions by a trained instructor who is supervised by a behavioral sleep medicine specialist. All randomized participants (n=200) will have 3 follow-up assessments (post-treatment, 3-months, and 6-months after randomization). The follow-up assessments will collect information on PTSD symptoms, insomnia symptoms and sleep quality.
The proposed project seeks to demonstrate that a brief bout of aerobic exercise can improve a particular type of therapeutic learning among victimins of interpersonal violence with or without posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
This will be a 12-week randomized trial. Outpatients and patients from the Mood and Anxiety program at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) with a current diagnosis of post-traumatic stressed disorder (PTSD) and cannabis-use disorder (CUD) will be randomized to receive individual motivational interviewing therapy and contingency management (n = 12) or individual motivational interviewing therapy alone (control group, n = 12) after enrolment.
The primary aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Internet-delivered Acceptance and commitment therapy for PTSD and comorbid chronic pain using a randomized controlled trial with waitlist control.
