A vizsgálatról
Mit akar kideríteni a vizsgálat
Many people who have posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) also struggle with problematic alcohol or drug use (substance use disorders [SUD]). Patients with both conditions prefer PTSD be treated alongside SUD. However, clinicians don't know if treatments that have been found to help those with PTSD work as well for people who also have SUD. This often leads to delaying PTSD treatment or using psychotherapies without research support. Trauma-focused psychotherapy (TFT) is the type of psychotherapy for PTSD that has been studied most often among people with both PTSD and SUD. It reduces symptoms of PTSD and substance use, although it might not work as well in those who have SUD as those who do not. Further, many patients with both PTSD and SUD do not complete TFT. Another strategy for treating PTSD is non-trauma-focused psychotherapy (NTFT). One NTFT, Present Centered Therapy, has been found to reduce symptoms of PTSD and more patients are able to complete NTFT than are able to finish TFT. However, no one has studied how well Present Centered Therapy works among patients who also have SUD.
A teljes eredeti leírásKevesebb
We will test which approach (TFT of NTFT) is better for reducing symptoms of PTSD and which is more likely to be completed by patients with both PTSD and SUD at VA healthcare facilities. We will also test to see whether some participants did better than others, so we can learn how to individualize treatment recommendations to patients. Participants will be assigned by chance to either TFT of NTFT. Patients assigned to TFT will receive either Prolonged Exposure or Cognitive Processing Therapy; both are weekly psychotherapies focused on addressing thoughts and/or memories related to their trauma. Those assigned to NTFT will receive Present Centered Therapy, a weekly psychotherapy in which patients learn about how PTSD relates to their current difficulties and problem solve current life difficulties. All participants will also receive SUD treatment. Participants will answer questions about their symptoms and experience with treatment before, right after they finish, and three and six months after they finish PTSD treatment. At the end of the study we will compare which treatment approach worked better to decrease PTSD symptom severity and which treatment patients were better able to complete. We will also track other outcomes that are important to patients (e.g., how they are doing in their relationships).
A vizsgálat 2 csoportja
- Trauma-Focused TherapyA vizsgált kezelés
Patients randomized to Trauma Focused Therapy will receive either Prolonged Exposure (PE) or Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). According to standard VA practice, assignment will be determined according to which trauma-focused therapy the assigned provider is verified to provide; if the assigned therapist is verified in both PE and CPT, the provider will decide which treatment to deliver. PE and CPT are both recommended as frontline treatments by all published PTSD guidelines. The standard treatment length will be 12 weekly sessions; however, patients and providers can collaboratively agree to early completion or extension as warranted.
Kezelés: Prolonged Exposure Therapy és Cognitive Processing Therapy
- Non-Trauma-Focused TherapyA vizsgált kezelés
Those randomized to non-trauma-focused therapy will receive present centered therapy (PCT). Originally designed as a strong comparator for psychotherapy research that included the components of "good therapy," PCT is now a bona-fide PTSD treatment suggested at the second tier in multiple clinical practice guidelines. The standard treatment length will be 12 weekly sessions; however, patients and providers can collaboratively agree to early completion or extension as warranted.
