A Study of a Mental Fitness Intervention for Anesthesiology Resident Wellbeing and Self-Compassion
{ "Study of App-Based Mental Fitness for Anesthesiology Residents", "This study is looking at whether app-based wellness programs can help improve the well-being and self-compassion of anesthesiology residents. Researchers are testing a \"mental fitness intervention\" delivered through an app, which includes weekly video lessons and daily short exercises. This program aims to help residents recognize self-sabotaging thought patterns. They will compare this to another app-based wellness program that is similar in length and time commitment. The main goal is to see if these apps are practical for busy residents and if they can improve their well-being, burnout, anxiety, and depression. This is a small pilot study to see if a larger study would be helpful. You can join if you are an anesthesiology resident (PGY4) at Massachusetts General Hospital or Brigham and Women's Hospital, and you can also include a loved one.", "design": "This is an interventional pilot study with a planned enrollment of 60 participants. Researchers will compare two different app-based wellness programs.", "commitments": "Participants will complete one video-based lesson per week and brief daily practice exercises for six weeks. The study will follow participants for up to 12 weeks after enrollment.", "compensation": "Not stated in the trial record.", "follow_up": "Participants will be followed for up to 12 weeks after enrollment to measure retention rate.", }

- Intervention Acceptability (Acceptability of Intervention Measure, AIM)At the end of study up to 12 weeks after enrollment
Acceptability of the assigned program, measured with the 4-item Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM). Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = completely disagree to 5 = completely agree). The mean score ranges from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating greater acceptability. Administered to both arms.
- Intervention Appropriateness (Intervention Appropriateness Measure, IAM)At the end of study up to 12 weeks after enrollment
Perceived appropriateness and fit of the assigned program, measured with the 4-item Intervention Appropriateness Measure (IAM). Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = completely disagree to 5 = completely agree). The mean score ranges from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating greater perceived appropriateness. Administered to both arms.
- Intervention Feasibility (Feasibility of Intervention Measure, FIM)At the end of study up to 12 weeks after enrollment
Perceived feasibility of the assigned program, measured with the 4-item Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM). Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale (1 = completely disagree to 5 = completely agree). The mean score ranges from 1 to 5, with higher scores indicating greater perceived feasibility. Administered to both arms.
- Net Promoter Score (NPS)At the end of study up to 12 weeks after enrollment
Single-item likelihood of recommending the assigned program, rated from 0 to 10. Reported as the Net Promoter Score (percentage of promoters \[9-10\] minus percentage of detractors \[0-6\]), which ranges from -100 to +100. Administered to both arms.
