Prevention of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder by Telephone Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Telephone Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Stress Disorder - Post-traumatic (Acute). Completed, enrolled 139 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a randomized controlled study comparing telephone-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for recent survivors of traumatic events with Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) or acute PTSD with a waitlist control group. Survivors with PTSD from both groups will receive face-to-face CBT one month from the traumatic event. The study's main hypothesis is that early telephone-based CBT will reduce the prevalence of PTSD three and eight months after the traumatic event.
