Official title

Smartphone Delivery of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Post-intensive Care Syndrome-Family: A Pilot Study

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Family members of critically ill (ICU) patients are at risk for developing significant symptoms of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress during and after the ICU experience. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a form of therapy that can help individuals cope with stressful events in a more active and effective way. This study will examine the effectiveness of a smartphone self-care app delivering cognitive behavioral therapy in decreasing the psychological symptoms suffered by ICU family members. Half of the sample will receive the self-care app and half of the study sample will receive the usual supportive care given to family members of ICU patients. The researchers anticipate the self-care app will diminish the severity of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress symptoms experienced by ICU family members.
