Daily electronic self-monitoring of subjective symptoms and skill- learning in borderline personality disorder – the mDIARY1 trial protocol: a pragmatic randomised controlled trial
ABSTRACT
Background:
Patient self-monitoring by mobile phones during psychotherapy can enhance overview of the psychotherapeutic progress by graphically displaying current and previous scores, providing feedback to the patient, delivering psychoeducative material, and providing timely data to the therapist or treatment team.
Objective:
No studies to date have investigated if digital self-monitoring by mobile phone can reduce the time it takes patients to assimilate and generalize emotion regulation skills during treatment for borderline personality and related disorders.
Methods:
A mobile self-monitoring application was adjusted to fit patients receiving dialectical behaviour therapy psychotherapy (DBT) for patients diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. We used a modified version of the software from the MONARCA trial developed for bipolar disorder to develop a mobile telephone application that could deliver skills through text and sound files, track skills acquisition, and monitor daily levels of dysregulation, skill use, and emotional states. Its effectiveness was evaluated in a randomised controlled trial.
Results:
Results will be analysed with multiple event survival analysis (Shared frailty)
Conclusions:
N/A Clinical Trial: The study protocol was approved by the Danish Ethics Committee in the Region of Southern Denmark [S-20160085]. It was approved by the Danish Data protection Agency under the common Danish mental health databases of quality [2008-58-0035]. The approved database system used was OPEN - Odense Patient data Exploratory Network (OPEN, http\\: www.sdu.dk/ki/open)
