This article describes the development of the smartphone application for cognitive-behavioural case management of young individuals with early psychosis and examines the acceptance and potential clinical benefits of this application through a pilot survey.
Gwangju Bukgu-Community Mental Health Center developed and launched a smartphone application (Heal Your Mind [HYM]) for cognitive-behavioural case management and symptom monitoring. The HYM application for clients includes 6 main modules including thought record, symptom record, daily life record, official notices, communication and scales. The key module is the "thought record" for self-directed cognitive-behavioural treatment. When the client writes and sends the self-cognitive-behavioural therapy sheet to the case manager, the latter receives a notification and can provide feedback in real time. We conducted a survey to investigate the acceptance and feasibility of this approach among young clients with early psychosis.
A total of 24 clients with early psychosis participated in this survey. More than 80% of participants reported that it was easy to learn to use this application, and no one described this application as very complicated or reported that they needed a long time to learn how to use it. About 80% of participants were satisfied with this application, and 70% reported that they received help as a result of using this application.
This study suggests that this smartphone application is useful for young individuals with early psychosis and that it may contribute to the development of both young customer- and case manager-friendly systems for this clinical population.
本文描述了一款用于早期精神病青年个体认知行为病例管理的智能手机应用程序的开发,并通过一项试点调查研究了该应用程序的可接受性和潜在临床益处。
光州北区社区心理健康中心开发并推出了一款用于认知行为病例管理和症状监测的智能手机应用程序(治愈你的心灵[HYM])。面向客户的HYM应用程序包括6个主要模块,即思维记录、症状记录、日常生活记录、官方通知、沟通和量表。关键模块是用于自我导向认知行为治疗的“思维记录”。当客户编写并向病例管理员发送自我认知行为治疗表单时,后者会收到通知并可以实时提供反馈。我们进行了一项调查,以研究这种方法在早期精神病青年客户中的可接受性和可行性。
共有24名早期精神病患者参与了这项调查。超过80%的参与者表示学习使用该应用程序很容易,没有人将该应用程序描述为非常复杂,也没有人报告他们需要很长时间来学习如何使用它。约80%的参与者对该应用程序感到满意,70%的参与者报告称使用该应用程序后得到了帮助。
本研究表明,这款智能手机应用程序对早期精神病青年个体有用,并且可能有助于为这一临床人群开发既对青年客户友好又对病例管理员友好的系统。
