NCT03878160

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to identify Acute Coronary Syndromes (ACS) patients' specific needs and preferences for depression treatment via in-person or virtual individual interviews to (a) guide MBCT adaptation; and identify barriers and facilitators to (b) group videoconferencing delivery, and (c) blood spot data collection to enhance feasibility. Through qualitative measures participants will report specific physical, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms to be targeted in the intervention, discuss barriers and facilitators to participating in a video-conference treatment program and completing blood spot data collection procedures.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Number of Participants Reporting Changes After ACS

    This portion of the individual interview will focus on exploring changes experienced after an ACS, such as psychosocial changes and health behavior changes. Participants were individually interviewed via telephone using a semi-structured interview guide. Three independent coders conducted qualitative thematic analysis and results were analyzed within each group. The identified themes are reported, and the criteria used to determine the outcome measure is the number of participants who endorsed each theme.

    one 30-90-minute session

  • Number of Participants With Perspectives on MBCT

    This portion of the individual interview will focus on exploring patients' perspectives toward an MBCT treatment approach. Participants were individually interviewed via telephone using a semi-structured interview guide. Three independent coders conducted qualitative thematic analysis and results were analyzed within each group. The identified themes are reported, and the criteria used to determine the outcome measure is the number of participants who endorsed each theme.

    one 30-90-minute session

  • Number of Participants With Perspectives on Videoconferencing

    This portion of the individual interview will focus on exploring perspectives regarding videoconferencing intervention delivery. Participants were individually interviewed via telephone using a semi-structured interview guide. Three independent coders conducted qualitative thematic analysis and results were analyzed within each group. Identified themes are reported, and the criteria used to determine the outcome measure is the number of participants upon interview who reported expressed each theme.

    one 30-90-minute session

  • Number of Participants With Perspectives on Blood Spot Data Collection

    This portion of the individual interview will focus on exploring ACS patients who had perspectives on participating in a remote dried blood spot procedure. Participants were individually interviewed via telephone using a semi-structured interview guide. Three independent coders conducted qualitative thematic analysis and results were analyzed within each group. The criteria used to determine the outcome measure is the number of participants upon interview who reported any type of perspective on participating in a remote dried blood spot procedure (self-collection of dried blood spot via finger-prick). Please note that the number of perspectives reported for each theme can exceed the number of people per group because each participant reported multiple perspectives (e.g., both pros and cons of videoconferencing).

    one 30-90-minute session

Interventions

Individual Interviews will focus on exploring (a) changes after ACS, such as psychosocial changes and health behavior changes; (b) specific preferences for the MBCT intervention; and (c) potential barriers and facilitators of group videoconferencing and (d) blood spot data collection. Individual interviews will use a semi-structured interview guide. Individual interviews will be conducted until thematic saturation is reached. Individual interviews will be audio-recorded for transcription and data analysis.
