HEADS: UP (Helping Ease Anxiety and Depression Following Stroke) Psychological Self-management Intervention: Non-randomised Pilot Study

The aim of this mixed methods research is to conduct feasibility pilot testing of an existing mindfulness intervention called HEADS: UP. The intervention is designed to help people affected by stroke self-manage symptoms of anxiety and depression.

Descripción detallada

Mindfulness-based interventions are thought to help people affected by stroke (Lawrence et al., 2013). Helping Ease Anxiety and Depression (HEADS: UP) is an adapted mindfulness-based intervention for people affected by stroke (Lawrence, 2019). This study aligns with the feasibility/piloting stage of the Medical Research Council framework (Craig et al., 2008) and will optimise intervention delivery and study processes, ensuring all elements are working together, ready for testing at a later stage.

The aim of this mixed methods research is to conduct feasibility pilot testing of HEADS: UP to help people affected by stroke self-manage symptoms of anxiety and depression prior to Phase III testing in future work.

This stage is a non-randomised pilot study based in Glasgow, United Kingdom. The purpose of the pilot is to assess feasibility and acceptability of delivering HEADS: UP, and recruitment and questionnaire data collection processes; identify any additional HEADS: UP adaptions.

Descripción

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have had ≥1 stroke 3-60 months previously (reflects incidence of anxiety/depression)
  • Interested in learning skills to help them cope with self-reported anxiety and/or depression
  • Able to speak and understand conversational English
  • Able to identify a family member/peer who would: like to take part, can speak and understand conversational English; not participating in another trial.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior MBSR attendance in the last three years (as this may confound results)
  • Current participant in another trial
  • Cannot follow a 2-stage command
  • ≥28 on Behavioural Assessment of Dysexecutive Syndrome (BADS) scale; assesses the cognitive skills required to engage with group-based interventions (goo.gl/uumeFw)
  • Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS); screens for anxiety and depression; used extensively in Primary Care research (goo.gl/TtdDDW). A score of 8-10 suggests mood disorder; ≥11 indicates 'probable presence'. A total cut-off score of 11 achieves optimal balance between sensitivity and specificity, and will be used for family/peer participants who have not had a stroke. A lower cut-off score is recommended for stroke survivors i.e. 4 on each sub-scale.

NOTE: A current prescription for anxiolytics or antidepressants is not an exclusion criterion. If screening identifies a potential participant who requires GP referral, that individual may subsequently be prescribed medication; this is a feature of the pilot work. In a future trial, where participants are randomised to two arms and there is equal probability of people being on medication in each arm, it will not be an issue.

Experimental: HEADS: UP
HEADS: UP is group-based mindfulness intervention based on the original mindfulness based stress reduction course, but adapted for people affected by stroke.

HEADS: UP comprises 9 x 2.5 hour mindfulness teaching sessions and a silent retreat in week 7. Course materials include accessible information packs and resources to complement class-based sessions.

The first week of the 9-week course is an introductory class. The purpose of the introductory class is to give participants the opportunity to meet the trainers and to decide if they want to learn more about mindfulness. The introductory session also allows participants to meet other people on the course and to share their (stroke) stories.

Periodo de tiempo
Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL): change is being assessed
Periodo de tiempo: Weeks 0, 9, 21
The Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL) is an outcome measure intended to assess of health-related quality of life for people affected by stroke. It is a self-report scale containing 49 items in 12 domains. Items are rated on a 5-point Likert scale and the questionnaire is usually completed in 10-15 minutes.

Stroke Impact Scale (SIS): change is being assessed
Periodo de tiempo: Weeks 0, 9, 21
The Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) is a self-report, health status measure for people affected by stroke. It was designed to assess strength, hand function, activities of daily living, mobility, communication, emotion, memory and thinking, and participation. The SIS can be used both in clinical and research settings. It contains 59 items and assesses 8 domains. Each item is rated using a 5-point Likert scale. A final single-item question assesses the individual's perception of recovery from stroke, measured using a visual analogue scale, where 0 = no recovery & 100 = full recovery. The scale is normally completed in 15-20 minutes.

The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is a self-administered measure of depression and anxiety. The HADS is not a diagnostic tool, but can screen for anxiety and depression. The HADS has 14 items in total and asks about mood in the past week. Seven items assess depression and seven items assess anxiety. The HADS can be administered repeatedly without impacting on validity. Each item is rated on a 4-point scale and provide a score 0-21. A higher score indicates higher distress.

The DASS is a set of three self-report scales designed to measure depression, anxiety and stress. Each of the three DASS scales contains 14 items, divided into subscales of 2-5 items with similar content. The Depression scale assesses dysphoria, hopelessness, devaluation of life, self-deprecation, lack of interest/involvement, anhedonia, and inertia. The Anxiety scale assesses autonomic arousal, skeletal muscle effects, situational anxiety, and subjective experience of anxious affect. The Stress scale is sensitive to levels of chronic non-specific arousal. It assesses difficulty relaxing, nervous arousal, and being easily upset/agitated, irritable/over-reactive and impatient. Subjects are asked to use 4-point severity/frequency scales to rate the extent to which they have experienced each state over the past week. Scores for Depression, Anxiety and Stress are calculated by summing the scores for the relevant items.

The patient is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. This decision results in a 1-digit number that expresses the level selected for that dimension. The digits for the five dimensions can be combined into a 5-digit number that describes the patient's health state.
