The Syracuse VA Medical Center is launching a study to investigate if
a mobile application can help veterans better self-manage
post-traumatic stress disorder.
The 16-week study will examine the PTSD Coach, which aims to teach users self-management strategies and techniques. While there is evidence the app can help with cognitive behavioral strategies, it's unclear whether it is a good fit for a military veteran PTSD sufferer. The research team, led by Kyle Possemato, a clinical research psychologist, also wants to see if melding the app with clinician support can enhance self-management activity.
