Re-Engineering Systems for the Primary Care Treatment for PTSD

Completed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Stress Disorders, Posttraumatic, Depression

In brief

The study is an evaluation of a systemic intervention to enhance the delivery of care according to practice guidelines for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The immediate objectives are to (1) implement three component model (3CM) in VA primary care clinics; and (2) evaluate the effects of 3CM on clinician behavior and patient outcomes. The long-term objectives are to generate information to support implementation research on the RESPECT model for treating PTSD in primary care and ultimately, the implementation of the model in VHA to provide care to veterans with PTSD.
