Enhanced Cognitive Rehabilitation to Treat Comorbid TBI and PTSD
May 8, 2018 updated by: Amy Jak, San Diego Veterans Healthcare System
This study will test a modification of Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, (PTSD) in which CPT is augmented with compensatory cognitive rehabilitation principles from the Cognitive Symptom Management and Rehabilitation Therapy (CogSMART) intervention to create a hybrid treatment, SMART-CPT.
This study investigates the efficacy of SMART-CPT in improving PTSD and post-concussive symptoms, cognition, quality of life, and treatment compliance in those with a history of mild to moderate TBI and persistent cognitive complaints.
