Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Structured interviews and questionnaires will be conducted to collect qualitative data on the feasibility of the intervention, including insights into the process, advantages and disadvantages, and patients' experiences of the application. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Additional questionnaires are administered on comorbid symptoms (depressive symptoms (IDS) and anxiety symptoms (STAI), general functioning (OQ-45), and quality of life (WHODAS). This will allow us to investigate whether specific subgroups may influence feasibility and whether these scores change clinically. Furthermore, the trial will examine the extent to which traumatic events evoke no or significantly reduced emotional reactions in the patient, as measured by the PTSD Checklist (PCL-5), allowing for a conservative assessment of efficacy. | — |
