Summary

This trial aims to address the mental health challenges faced by patients who have been in intensive care units by developing a mobile app called Blueprint. This app helps people manage their symptoms and has been shown to reduce

Who is the study for?
This trial is for survivors of cardiorespiratory failure who have been in the ICU and are experiencing psychological distress such as depression, anxiety, or PTSD. It's particularly focused on including patients from racially and ethnically minoritized groups.

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Blueprint adaptive coping skills interventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This is a unique adaptive coping skills intervention developed over years of research that targets patients hospitalized for cardiorespiratory conditions. Participants will receive 4 weeks of different Blueprint content through a mobile app. Each week's session includes a within-app HADS survey for safety monitoring. A printed or PDF workbook with complementary content and QR links to app videos is provided.
Group II: Education program controlActive Control1 Intervention
This is cardiorespiratory condition-specific content through an iterative process, informed by research on informational needs and past successful education programs. Participants will receive 4 weeks of different 10-minute informational videos unrelated to Blueprint content through a mobile app. Each week's session includes a within-app HADS survey for safety monitoring. A printed or PDF workbook with complementary content and QR links to app videos is provided.
