简要总结
The primary objective with this study is to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of ten weeks of internet delivered prolonged exposure delivered through a digital platform with therapist support. The secondary objective is to investigate preliminary effects of internet delivered prolonged exposure in terms of reducing symptoms of post-traumatic stress, depression and increase quality of life.
详细描述
The investigators will investigate internet delivered prolonged exposure delivered as a ten-week treatment comprising of six modules (psychoeducation/rational, in vivo exposure, imaginal exposure, common problems during exposure, hot spots and relapse prevention). The feasibility and acceptability and preliminary effects of treatment- and assessment procedures will be evaluated using a within-group design with repeated measurements and qualitative interviews. Recruitment is designed to be broadly inclusive with minimal exclusion criteria. Patients will be recruited from a psychiatric clinic specialized in PTSD in Stockholm, Sweden and by advertisements in newspapers and social media.
