简要总结
This project aims to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary efficacy of remotely delivered CAE among patients with schizophrenia (CAE-S).
详细描述
Patients with schizophrenia will be randomly assigned to receive either CAE-S or eTAU following the baseline assessment. The primary feasibility outcomes will be attendance and patient satisfaction (Aim 1) and change from baseline to 12 weeks in schizophrenia symptoms as measured by the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) (Aim 2). An exploratory evaluation (Aim 3) will examine the posited mechanistic underpinnings of the CAE-S intervention by assessing change from screening to 12 weeks in psychotropic medication adherence as measured by the Tablets Routine Questionnaire (TRQ) and validated by eCAP (objective bottle openings). Secondary measures will include the Clinical Global Impression (CGI), functional status, quality of life and attitudes towards medication.
