Stroke and Anxiety Reduction

Impact of a Structured Anxiety Reduction Program on Anxiety in Patients Who Are Discharged to Home Following an Acute Stroke in an Academic Medical Center

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Apr 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this pilot study is to explore the impact that a structured anxiety reduction intervention program has on patients being discharged to home following an acute stroke in an academic medical center. Eligible participants will be screened and recruited by the research team through daily rounds. After completing the informed consent process, the research team will pull demographic information from the electronic health record (EHR) and REDCAP that includes ethnicity and support system. Participants will complete the Anxiety Screen Questionnaire (GAD-7 ANXIETY SURVEY) and will be provided with information regarding stroke support groups available with additional NYU Langone Health and the American Heart Association internet-based information regarding anxiety reduction (NYU Langone Health Anxiety Reduction Bundle). The participants will be encouraged to attend a stroke support group for 3 months and utilize the NYU Langone Health Anxiety Reduction Bundle provided. At the completion of the intervention (3 months), participants will be provided with the GAD-7 ANXIETY SURVEY again and a survey that includes open-ended questions and a program evaluation by email. Analysis will occur after final data is collected.
