What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-V (CAPS-5)
Time Frame: 6 months
|
PTSD symptoms over the previous month will be assessed with the CAPS-5 clinical interview.
Total symptom severity score and symptom cluster severity scores will be calculated.
Scores range from 0 to 80, with higher scores reflecting more sever PTSD symptoms.
|
6 months
|
Six-minute walk test
Time Frame: 6 months
|
Performance-based measure of aerobic endurance.
Participants are instructed to walk along a measured course for 6 minutes.
The distance walked in 6 minutes (feet) is the outcome of this assessment.
There is no maximum value for this test, but the minimum value could be 0 (unable to walk any distance).

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)
Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?
IPD Plan Description
All of the individual participant data collected during the trial, after de-identification, will be made available.
A limited dataset (LDS) will be created and shared pursuant to a Data Use Agreement (DUA) appropriately limiting use of the dataset and prohibiting the recipient from identifying or re-identifying (or taking steps to identify or re-identify) any individual whose data are included in the dataset. Only de-identified (stripped of 18 HIPAA) and anonymized datasets (void of any identifying code, study or otherwise) will be shared.
