NCT02270073
Background: Mindfulness has its origins in an Eastern Buddhist tradition that is over 2500 years old and can be defined as a specific form of attention that is non-judgemental, purposeful, and focused on the present moment. It has been well established in cognitive behavior therapy in the last decades, while it has been investigated in manualized group settings. Consequently, the demand to investigate mindfulness under effectiveness conditions in trainee therapists has been highlighted. Methods/Design: To fill in this research gap, the investigators designed the PrOMET-Study. In this study, the investigators will analyze the effects of brief, audio-tape presented, in-session mindfulness interventions conducted by both trainee therapists and their patients at the beginning of individual therapy sessions in a randomized, controlled longitudinal design under effectiveness conditions in a total of 30 trainee therapists and 150 patients in a large outpatient training center. The investigators hypothesize the mindfulness intervention will have positive effects on therapeutic processes and outcome in contrast to a progressive muscle relaxation and a treatment as usual group. The investigators will conduct multilevel modeling to address the nested data structure. Discussion: The study results could provide important practical implications, as they could inform ideas on how to improve clinical training of psychotherapists that could be implemented very, as there is no need for complex infrastructures or additional time concerning these brief, in-session mindfulness interventions that are directly implemented in treatment sessions.
NCT02067559
The main objective of the study is to test the feasibility of the ICU diaries intervention in the ICU. The investigators do not have sufficient power to detect differences in the hypotheses below, but will use the present pilot study to inform sample size required to adequately power a follow-up randomized control trial. (1) The investigators hypothesize that subjects exposed to a psychoeducation condition will have reduced rates of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) compared to those experiencing treatment as usual (TAU). (2) The investigators hypothesize that compared to participants in the psychoeducation and TAU groups, those subjects exposed to an ICU diary, and those exposed to both ICU diary + psychoeducation conditions, will have significantly reduced rates of PTSD at follow-up. (3)The investigators hypothesize that participants exposed to the ICU diary + psychoeducation condition will have significantly lower rates of PTSD compared to those in the ICU diary alone condition.
