ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is effectively treated with exposure and response prevention (ERP), yet very few veterans receive ERP for OCD within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Veterans are a clinically complex population, and no prior research has evaluated the effectiveness of ERP in veterans with OCD or comorbid OCD and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Given the limited accessibility of ERP-trained providers within VHA, assessment of video telehealth (VTH) delivery of ERP is warranted.
METHODS: A sample of 160 veterans with OCD (80 diagnosed with comorbid PTSD) will be randomly assigned to receive up to 16 sessions of ERP or a stress management training control delivered via VTH. Assessments will occur at baseline, posttreatment, and 6-month follow-up. The primary outcome will evaluate the impact of ERP on participants’ functioning, and secondary outcomes will include quality of life and OCD symptoms. At posttreatment, qualitative interviews with veterans, clinicians, and administrators will explore barriers and facilitators to treatment delivery, and the implementation potential of ERP.
CONCLUSIONS: Results will provide direction for the treatment of OCD and comorbid PTSD in veterans, as well as guidance for future implementation efforts for ERP within VHA.
