Official title
Positive Psychology for Acute Coronary Syndrome Patients: A proof-of Concept Feasibility Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study is a single-arm, 12-week trial to test the feasibility of a PP-MI intervention for patients recently admitted following ACS. PP-MI is a novel positive psychology-based health behavior intervention that is adapted for patients hospitalized for ACS. The intervention aims to cultivate positive emotions in this vulnerable population that could provide broad and significant health benefits, and may have distinct-and more powerful-effects than simply attempting to dampen negative emotions. The primary aim is to assess whether the intervention exercises are feasible and linked with immediate boosts in positive affect upon completion. The secondary goal is to provide the research team with greater experience recruiting inpatients with an ACS, successfully completing intervention sessions, and administering psychological and medical assessments by phone.
