Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder Clinical Trials Data presented on Clinical Trials Search is not meant to be a substitute for qualified health advice, visits or treatment with a real mD. We are not doctors. Always consult your doctor about Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a site devoted to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder Clinical research trials and Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder healthcare trials happen in many of places across the United States. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the effectivity of new drugs. The purpose of the studies / projects is to solve particular human medical questions. Clinical trials are a popular way for doctors, government agencies, and private sector companies to discover cures for all varieties of conditions, such as Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder. Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder Clinical Trials and other clinical trials allow volunteers to have health treatment alternatives before they are available to the masses. Some times the human subjects obtain treatment for without cost, and sometimes they are compensated for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder clinical trial. Test subjects oftentimes receive the most effective healthcare possible for their Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder condition. Dangers are a reality, however, and may include extra or frequent physician visits, healthcare dangers (possibly life-jeopardising), and/or the treatment being uneffective. Trials are federally governed with rigorous guidelines to protect clinical trials patients.

Interactive Computer Treatment for Panic Disorder
For Condition: Panic Disorder
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) ,
Synopsis: The purpose of this study is to develop an interactive computer based version of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and compare its effectiveness to book based CBT for the treatment of panic disorder.
Details: Panic disorder (PD) is a highly prevalent and debilitating condition. Unfortunately, many people with PD go untreated because of the high cost and low availability of treatment. Research shows that CBT is an effective treatment for PD. When administered as a self-help, computer based treatment, CBT may provide a less expensive, more engaging treatment for PD. Participants in this study will be randomly assigned to receive computer based treatment, book based treatment, or no treatment for 10 weeks. After these 10 weeks, symptoms of anxiety and depression will be measured with patient interviews, scales, and questionnaires.
Eligibility:
Study Type: Interventional, Treatment, Randomized, Open Label, Active Control, Parallel Assignment, Efficacy Study
Minimum Age/Maximum Age: 18 Years/65 Years
Genders: Both
Protocol Entry Criteria: Inclusion Criteria: - DSM-IV diagnosis of panic disorder, with or without agoraphobia Exclusion Criteria: - Change in medication type or dose 12 weeks prior to study entry - Suicidal - Current substance abuse - Current or past schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or organic mental disorder. Patients on medications must meet stability requirements such that initial administration of the medication and dose has been maintained for at least 3 months prior to treatment and will be maintained until post-treatment.
