摘 要:Over the course of the last year, the study team received IRB approval and began recruiting participants at five of the six study sites (Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Ft. Bliss, Ft. Campbell, Ft. Carson, and Ft. Stewart). As of August 31, 2012, 368 total referrals across the five active sites had been received; 179 participants had been enrolled and randomized into the study (86 participants into the STEPS UP arm; 93 participants into the optimized usual care arm); 53 participants completed the 3-month follow-up assessment; and 6 participants completed the 6-month follow-up. We are awaiting HRPO approval of our final site (Ft. Bragg); we anticipate beginning recruitment at Ft. Bragg in September 2012. Multiple amendments have been approved by the WRNMMC IRB, including an amendment that revised eligibility criteria and updated data collection forms. The study intervention has been refined to include a web-based care management support tool; nurse-assisted web- based cognitive-behavioral therapy options for PTSD and depression; a modularized telephonic cognitive-behavioral therapy option for PTSD and depression; and a preference-based stepped care approach to primary care PTSD and depression treatment sequencing. We have continued to hire and train site and centralized personnel.
