Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize the role of sleep, emotion processing, and daily affect in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and whether improving sleep quality using slow wave activity enhancement will impact next-day affect in youth. Participants will attend 4 study visits: - A clinical and trauma assessment visit - A testing day that may include cognitive testing, surveys, and an MRI. - An overnight sleep study following one week of at-home sleep recordings with the device in the sham condition - An overnight sleep study following one week of at-home sleep recordings with the device in the sleep enhancement condition
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is prevalent among Veterans and effective evidence-based psychotherapies (EBPs) for PTSD have been implemented within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). However, retention in PTSD EBPs is poor. Premature dropout is associated with worse clinical outcomes and greater healthcare utilization. Delivery of PTSD EBPs in a massed format, typically three or more days per week delivered within a month, have shown promise for increasing retention. The present study is a pilot feasibility and acceptability study comparing massed PTSD treatment to treatment as usual (e.g., typically weekly treatment).
The overall objective of the proposed study is to determine if Dexmedetomidine HCl (BXCL501) is safe for treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD) with comorbid posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in an outpatient setting and also shows potential signals of efficacy thereby supporting the conduct of later phase clinical trials.
The current study will evaluate TF-CBT delivered via tele-health for youth presenting with trauma symptoms via a randomized controlled trial. Goals of the current study are to examine the effectiveness of Tele-TF-CBT delivered by community providers in Puerto Rico in improving youth trauma outcomes. Goals are also to support the feasibility, acceptability, and engagement outcomes of Tele-health delivery.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the feasibility of implementation aspects, treatment effects and change processes regarding a brief trauma-focused Internet-based CBT treatment, for patients who have been treated in trauma care at Karolinska University Hospital and who exhibit symptoms of psychological consequences of the traumatic event. Another aim is to explore factors (predictors, moderators and mediators) that influence the effect of the treatment, in order to better understand who responds to the treatment.
During this 36-month R34 trial, eight study phases are proposed to adapt an evidence-based post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) intervention (STAIR-NT) and layer it into a methadone maintenance treatment (MMT) program (START Treatment and Recovery centers) in New York City for use among individuals engaged in stimulant-opioid polysubstance use. The study aims to adapt STAIR-NT to a massed treatment schedule. Once an adapted protocol is complete, it will be tested for feasibility, acceptability, and short-term polysubstance and PTSD symptomology outcomes in a pilot randomized control trial (RCT) of 80 participants. Participants who screen eligible and consent will be randomized 1:1 to the adapted STAIR-NT intervention or treatment as usual (TAU) using randomization blocks of two and two and four via a computer-generated randomization sequence. Participants assigned to the intervention will receive the adapted massed delivery of STAIR-NT by trained counselors.
This study is a randomized factorial trial designed to evaluate unguided (i.e., purely self-help), transdiagnostic internet delivered cognitive behaviour therapy tailored for public safety personnel with tunneled of personalized course delivery and with or without the incorporation of social learning resources.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if receiving Trauma-Informed Guilt Reduction (TrIGR) Therapy is as effective as receiving Prolonged Exposure Therapy among veterans with PTSD and trauma related guilt. The main questions it aims to answer are: Will TrIGR be comparable to PE in terms of PTSD symptom reduction? Will it TrIGR be comparable to PE in improving functioning and reducing depression symptoms? Will it be superior in improving trauma-related guilt and shame?
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if receiving Prolonged Exposure Therapy for PTSD in massed format (multiple sessions weekly) is as effective as receiving it with sessions once per week among veterans with PTSD and substance use disorder in intensive outpatient substance use treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Will the massed format help participants complete and benefit from Prolonged Exposure in terms of PTSD symptoms? - Will it help participants reduce substance use? Participants who are in intensive substance use treatment will be asked to complete Prolonged Exposure with either weekly sessions or multiple sessions per week.
The world experiences a high rate of traumatic events. Even if PTSD is not diagnosed, traumatic events can significantly affect people's lives. Traditional face-to-face therapies often face challenges, such as financial constraints, expensive therapy sessions, time restrictions, fear of stigma, and difficulties in accessing clinical psychologists. These challenges motivated us to develop new methods. Particularly in Turkey, there is neither sufficient infrastructure nor existing applications dedicated to addressing trauma-related complications. The development of the 'TraumaRelief' app is a pioneering initiative aimed at bridging this gap, targeting the resolution of these prevalent issues by introducing an accessible, innovative solution. The newly developed "TraumaRelief" app aims to provide solutions to these issues. This app contains eight modules: online video talks, psychoeducation, coping with symptoms, mindfulness-based relaxation exercises, imagery exposure, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy)-based daily exercises, therapist messaging, emergency contact access. The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of this newly developed application through a pilot randomized controlled trial.
