Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SMART ProgramExperimentalThe Stress Management and Resiliency Training (SMART) Program is a multimodal mind-body and cognitive skills-based program that teaches participants a variety of different approaches for reducing their physiologic stress response. The program is delivered virtually (online) for 1.5 hours once a week for 8 weeks.
Receives: Behavioral: Stress Management and Resiliency Training Program

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in amygdala activation

    change in radiotracer uptake in the amygdala with FDG-PET imaging from before to after the SMART Program

    Measured: about 10 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stress Management and Resiliency Training Program in people with Heart Attack and Cardiovascular Diseases, run by University of California, Davis at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in amygdala activation (time frame: about 10 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 May 2024.
