Summary

The purpose of the present pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and potential efficacy of a brief, internet-delivered CBT protocol provided early following cardiac surgery.

Conditions

  • Cardiac Surgery

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Online CBT following cardiac surgery

It will include psychoeducation, behavioral activation to address post-operative fatigue and depression, interoceptive exposure to reduce fear of cardiac-related symptoms and in-vivo exposure to reduce avoided situations, and activities to enhance physical activity and wellbeing. Labeling (i.e., describing post-operative and/or cardiac-related symptoms, thoughts, and feelings) will be used continuously during treatment to enhance the effect of exposure and pain management
