  • All patients aged 18 to 65yrs who present to THHS ED with a discharge diagnosis of non-cardiac chest pain (NCCP) during the study period,.

排除标准

  • Individuals with limited proficiency in English language or with sensory or other impairment which impacts on expression and comprehension of English language
  • Individuals from indigenous or culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds
  • In addition it is suggested that individuals with the following conditions be excluded from this study
  • i. Those who have an underlying cardiac pathology – for the purpose of the study this is defined as individuals who have a diagnosed coronary artery disease This is because this represents a high-risk group who might need to re-present to the ED and therefore any gains made due to psychotherapy might not be best reflected through ED representations as the primary measure of the intervention's success.
  • ii. Individuals who have a co-morbid neurological condition: This includes a group of individuals who have had stroke or a space occupying lesion or those with a history of seizure disorder. Once again this represents a high-risk group who might need to re-present to the ED and therefore any gains made due to psychotherapy might not be best reflected through ED representations as the primary measure of the intervention's success
  • iii. Individuals who have a co-morbid psychiatric condition for which they are on psychotropic medication:
