NCT04209283
This research study is designed to investigate the use of a simple cognitive task (a memory cue followed by playing the computer game "Tetris") for decreasing the number of intrusive memories of trauma among trauma-exposed women in Iceland. This is a single case series using a within subject multiple baseline AB design. Participants will aim to complete a no-intervention phase ('A': baseline phase) of one week followed by a one-week intervention phase ('B'), including a one-session intervention with a researcher comprising the simple cognitive task, followed by instructions to continue using the technique self-guided in subsequent weeks. Participants will be asked to monitor the occurrence of intrusive memories of trauma in a daily diary. It is predicted that participants will report fewer intrusive memories during the intervention phase than during the preceding baseline phase and that the frequency of targeted intrusive memories is going to decrease relative to non-targeted intrusive memories. Furthermore, we will explore whether having fewer intrusive memories has an impact on function and/or PTSD, depressive or anxiety symptoms.

Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death contributing to more than 5 million estimated deaths per year globally. The longterm negative effects of smoking are well established. Complications due to smoking, from an orthopaedic perspective include impair bone and wound healing, and increased risk of infection and osteomyelitis. The primary outcome of this research is smoking cessation in patients attending the orthopaedic fracture clinic. This is a unique environment whereby previously healthy patients are faced with the impact of disability. This impetus to abstain from the benefit of fracture outcomes provides an opportunity for previously unattained early intervention and thus a greater potential for decreased patient morbidity and mortality. Furthermore it is a high volume clinic that, given the unique nature of traumatic injuries consists of a high proportion of males, ages 24-34 years old, obliged to follow up. This population is traditionally regarded as unattainable from primary prevention smoking cessation strategies. The investigators hypothesize that The Ottawa Hospital Fracture Clinic will serve as an effective environment to employ established primary prevention smoking cessation interventions, reducing the incidence of complications associated with fracture and surgical healing, and result in greater long-term cessation rates.
