详细描述
Objective: The primary aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Internet-delivered Acceptance and commitment therapy for PTSD and comorbid chronic pain.
Sample size : 40 (20+20) participants in total.
Trial design: A randomised trial where participants are allocated to either IACT for PTSD/Pain or control group (wait-list 12 weeks). All participants will eventually receive treatment, since participants randomized to the control group are subsequently offered identical treatment.
Participants are recruited from the Pain Rehabilitation Unit at Skåne University Hospital. The unit is a government supported, regional specialist center focused on assessment and treatment of chronic pain and related disability.
Assessments: Baseline and post treatment (2 weeks after treatment) assessments will be conducted by an assessor who is trained to administer the study measures. Self-report measures will also be collected at this time, post treatment (2 weeks after treatment) as well as during a 3-month and a 12-month follow up.
