Predicting Psychotic Relapse Using Speech-Based Early Detection
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 May 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Psychotic disorders, including schizophrenia and affective psychosis, are severe mental health conditions marked by recurrent episodes that contribute to long-term disability. Relapses, characterized by the re-emergence of psychotic symptoms after remission, are a critical factor in the progression of these disorders, increasing risks such as suicide, cognitive impairment, and unemployment. This study aims to develop a novel, speech-based digital model to predict relapses in individuals with psychosis. Building on previous research into language abnormalities in schizophrenia, the study will employ a longitudinal design across Early Psychosis Intervention (EPI) clinics in Ontario and Quebec to advance relapse prediction
