Internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to Reduce Depressive Symptoms After Stroke Pilot/Feasibility Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cognitive behavioral therapy for Stroke and Depression. Completed, enrolled 28 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Mood disorders occur in 25-30% of stroke patients and are associated with lower quality of life, higher mortality, increased healthcare utilization, and higher costs. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) interventions have been shown to both treat and prevent post-stroke mood disorders, thus having the ability to improve quality of life and reduce costs. This study aims to test the feasibility of internet-based CBT combined with a telephone/email based coaching service after stroke.
