Key information made simple

What is this study testing?

This study is testing whether cognitive behavioural therapy may be useful for adults experiencing ptsd.

What would participation involve?

Participants may take part in cognitive behavioural therapy, complete questionnaires or follow-up assessments, attend study visits with the research team. The protocol may also involve randomization, placebo, or a comparison group. The registry lists locations in Canada.

Who is it mainly for?

This study appears to be mainly for adults with ptsd.

What should you check before joining?

Ask about how many sessions are required and who delivers them, whether there is placebo, randomization, or a comparison group, how many visits or travel steps are needed, the exact eligibility criteria.

What to expect

Your next step

The official record suggests in-person participation through a university, with sites including University of Manitoba in Winnipeg. Participation appears to involve guided sessions or support activities with check-ins on how they fit into daily life. The main fit is usually matching the main diagnosis, while common reasons not to take part include other factors that could make participation unsuitable. The official record does not list a formal phase, which usually means this is focused more on feasibility, delivery, or support than a standard drug-development stage.

FAQ

Questions about this study

What is this study trying to understand?

This study is exploring brain stimulation for people with ptsd. Participants may complete study visits, assessments, or follow-up activities defined by the research team. It includes a comparison with a sham comparison. Direct benefit is not guaranteed. The detailed objective is not always clearly listed in the public registry; the study team can confirm.

Does this study involve a device, app, or technology?

This appears to be a device / app / digital / technology study. The phase is not clearly listed in the public registry. Phase is mostly relevant for medication studies and some device studies. For this study, it may be more useful to look at what is required, the duration, visits, and eligibility criteria.

Who might this study be for?

This study may concern people with ptsd; age range: Over 18 Years. The criteria appear fairly specific, but you should not assume you are eligible. The study team must confirm diagnosis, age, exclusions, available locations, and next steps.

What would I likely need to do?

You may need to use a device, app, or digital tool for a defined period. The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask whether some steps can be done remotely.

What should I check about data, monitoring, alerts, and daily use?

If the study uses a device, app, or digital tool, check what data is collected, who can access it, how often you need to use it, and what happens if the tool detects a concerning signal. For any mental health study, also ask who to contact if you feel worse, whether participation may affect current treatment, whether you can stop, and who confirms eligibility.

Will I need to travel or attend in-person visits?

The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask which sites are open, how many visits are expected, whether any steps can be done remotely, and whether travel costs or compensation are listed.

Who is behind this study?

This study is sponsored by University of Manitoba, which appears to be a university. If available, it can be useful to check the sponsor website, collaborators, investigator affiliation, and the official registry before deciding. HopeStage does not judge the quality of a sponsor or researcher, but helps you identify what to verify.

Can I still join this study?

The registry indicates that this study is completed. It may still be useful for understanding the research, but you are unlikely to be able to join.
