Trial summary

This study proposes to adapt an evidence based peer parent navigator (PPN) intervention, called Parent Connectors, in which trained and supervised PPNs deliver weekly telephone-based support for six to nine months to parents or caregivers of all newly enrolled youth or young adults (Y/YA) in FEP services.

About this study

This study proposes to adapt an evidence based peer parent navigator (PPN) intervention, called Parent Connectors, in which trained and supervised PPNs deliver weekly telephone-based support for six to nine months to parents or caregivers of all newly enrolled youth or young adults (Y/YA) in FEP services. This PPN model will be used to enhance the delivery of Coordinated Specialty Care (CSC) for Y/YA in New York's state program for FEP, called OnTrackNY (OTNY). This research project has potential to add value to the CSC model through the inclusion of a feasible, low burden intervention that may improve family participation in services and Y/YA outcomes. Using random assignment, this study will examine the feasibility and preliminary impact of an accelerator strategy-the inclusion of peer parent navigators or PPNs-in CSC teams.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Family Empowerment Scale (FES)

    A 34 item self reported instrument designed to measure empowerment status. The scale measures levels of empowerment, such as family, service system and community, and is rated on a likert scale, scale, ranging from1 (not true at all) to 5 (very true). The FES produces scores for three subscales based on level of empowerment:Family (12 items), Service system (12 items), and Community/ Political (10 items).

    Measured: 9 Months

  2. Patient Activation Measure (PAM)

    100-point quantifiable scale determining patient engagement in healthcare

    Measured: 9 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PPN in people with First Episode Psychosis (FEP), run by NYU Langone Health.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Family Empowerment Scale (FES) (time frame: 9 Months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Apr 2022.
