Brief Summary

Failure to adapt to stress leads to functional impairments in various areas, including social, occupational, educational, and other significant domains, necessitating therapeutic intervention. Interventions through mobile app in the form of software can provide a new alternative for alleviating symptoms caused by psychological trauma by increasing accessibility to early intervention for trauma patients. This study aims to preliminarily assess the safety and feasibility of a psychological traum intervention by developing SAT-014 to help patients with trauma and stress-related disorder continue effective treatment in a stable environment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

• Change in IES-R (Impact Event Scale-Revised) score

  The Korean version of the Impact Event Scale-Revised (IES-R) consists of 22 items each rated on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 to 4. The total score ranges from 0 to 88, with higher scores indicating a greater risk of post-traumatic stress disorder and a worse outcome.

  Baseline, 3weeks, 6weeks, 10weeks

• Change in PCL-5 (PTSD Checklist-5) score

  The PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) consists of 20 items, each rated on a scale from 0 to 4. The total score ranges from 0 to 80, with higher scores indicating greater distress due to symptoms related to past stressful experiences and a worse outcome.

  Baseline, 3weeks, 6weeks, 10weeks

• Change in GAD-7 (Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 item scale) score

  The Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item scale (GAD-7) consists of 7 items, each rated on a scale from 0 to 3. The total score ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating more severe anxiety symptoms and a worse outcome.

  Baseline, 3weeks, 6weeks, 10weeks

• Change in BAI (Beck Anxiety Inventory) score

  The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) consists of 21 items, each rated on a scale from 0 to 3. The total score ranges from 0 to 63, with higher scores indicating more severe anxiety symptoms and a worse outcome.

• Change in PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire-9; depression screening tool) score

  The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) consists of 9 items, each rated on a scale of 0 to 3. The total score ranges from 0 to 27, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms and a worse outcome.

  Baseline, 3weeks, 6weeks, 10weeks

• Change in QIDS-SR (Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self Report) score

  The Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology-Self Report (QIDS-SR) consist of 16 items, each rated on a scale of 0 to 3. It evaluates responses to 16 items based on criteria for nine depressive symptoms. The total score ranges from 0 to 27, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms and a worse outcome.

  Baseline, 3weeks, 6weeks, 10weeks

• Change in CGI (Clinical Global Impression) score

  The CGI consists of two items: (a) the clinician's overall impression of the patient's severity of illness and (b) global improvement over time. The severity of illness is rated on a scale from 1 to 7, with a higher score indicating more severe illness and a worse outcome. Global improvement is also rated on a scale from 1 to 7, with a higher score indicating a worse outcome.

  Baseline, 3weeks, 6weeks, 10weeks
