Delivery of Digital Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Following Concussion (HEADON)
Delivery of Digital Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Following Concussion: HeadOn Feasibility Study
Study Overview
Detailed Description
The HeadOn study is a prospective feasibility study of patients presenting to the Emergency Department (ED). Potentially eligible patients will be contacted by a member of the research team and their consent will be sought for participation. Those not recruited at presentation to the ED will be contacted by telephone, text or email within two weeks of their concussion date to seek their participation in the study, again by a member of the research team. After consenting, the participant will be taken through the registration process for the HeadOn program. For patients who are contacted after discharge they will be taken through registration process over the telephone or if preferable will be able to return to the ED to go over the process.
At registration the participant will be invited to complete a series of patient reported measures including the Rivermead post-concussion questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, PHQ9 questionnaire and FAST alcohol questionnaire within the HeadOn program. Alongside this, a series of researcher-led anonymised data points will be collected in a separate specially designed database including demographics, date of concussion, neurological and imaging findings which will all be collected from the medical notes and imaging reports. The HeadOn program runs for five weeks following which the participant will be invited to complete the same set of outcome measures. Alongside this, all the participant will be contacted (via telephone, text or email) by a member of the research team at week 5 to complete a further five measurements: Glasgow Outcome Score Extended, mHealth App Usability questionnaire, time to return to work and a healthcare utility questionnaire. Interested participants will be invited back within two months of enrolling in the study for a more detailed qualitative interviews about HeadOn. The study will recruit for a period of 6-months or up to 100 participants.

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: HeadOn intervention
Participants are given access to HeadOn - a web application that delivers a CBT programme to patients following concussion.
|
HeadOn is a web application which takes the participant through a 5-stage CBT programme including: (i) understanding post-concussion symptoms; (ii) sleep after a concussion; (iii) lifestyle habits and exercise; (iv) managing negative thought patterns and (v) returning to baseline.
The programme is delivered through a combination of weekly tasks (such as completing symptom diary, setting exercise goals and setting up a sleep time routine), audio/video media and reading material.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Participant compliance with HeadOn program
Time Frame: On completion of 5 week HeadOn program
|
Data inputted into the digital CBT program will be used as surrogate marker of participant compliance.
During each stage of the program participants are required to input data as part of the CBT tasks.
Participants will be divided into the following three groups: Fully compliant: participants who input data into the program during all five stages; Partially compliant: participants who input data but not during all five stages; Non-compliant: participants who do not enter any data into the program
|
On completion of 5 week HeadOn program
|
mHealth App Usability Questionnaire
Time Frame: On completion of 5 week HeadOn program
|
Validated questionnaire that examine participants' attitudes to an mHealth intervention
|
On completion of 5 week HeadOn program
