Behavioral Health Support After ICU Stay

This study is testing a Behavioral Health Collaborative Care Model (BH CoCM) for people who have been in the intensive care unit (ICU). Many ICU survivors experience mental health challenges like anxiety, depression, and PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder). This study at the Medical University of South Carolina wants to see if the BH CoCM, which includes digital tools (Neuroflow), behavioral health coaching, and psychiatric support, can help improve these symptoms. You might be able to join if you're an adult who has attended the MUSC ICU Recovery Clinic within 180 days of leaving the hospital. The study will measure changes in depression, anxiety, and PTSD over six months to see if the BH CoCM is effective. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study that plans to enroll 150 participants. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive the Behavioral Health Collaborative Care Model or usual care.
What's involved
If you join, you will undergo assessments for anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress. If in the intervention group, you will use the NeuroFlow platform and receive behavioral health coaching and psychiatric support for 6 months.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your symptoms of depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress will be followed for six months.
