简要总结
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of two different modalities of therapist-guided Internet-delivered behaviour therapy (IBT) for children and adolescents (7-17 years) with Tourette's Disorder (TD) or Persistent (Chronic) Motor or Vocal Tic Disorder (PTD).
详细描述
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of two different modalities of therapist-guided Internet-delivered behaviour therapy (IBT) for children and adolescents (7-17 years) with Tourette's Disorder (TD) or Persistent (Chronic) Motor or Vocal Tic Disorder (PTD). The two modalities of IBT are habit reversal training (HRT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP). Secondary objectives are to evaluate whether IBT can decrease tic frequency and tic-related impairment, and, as both HRT and ERP have been proven efficacious in treating TD/PTD face-to-face, are any of the two treatments better suited to be delivered via the internet?
The design of the study is a randomized-controlled trial with 20 participants. Participants will be stratified by ADHD/ADD status.
The treatment duration is 10 weeks.
Feasibility and acceptability will be assumed if:
- The two treatments can be successfully adapted to a therapist guided internet-delivered format (technical feasibility)
- Patients/parents are willing to try the offered treatment modalities
- Participants complete the active parts of the treatment
- Referrers are open to the idea of internet-delivered treatment for TD or PTD
- We can recruit sufficient numbers of patients for a fully powered efficacy trial
