ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how an internet-based lifestyle program can help people who have survived a cardiac arrest but are experiencing anxiety, depression, or cognitive difficulties. The goal is to see if using a web app can improve these mental health symptoms and enhance the overall quality of life for these patients.

To participate in this study, you need to have been discharged from the hospital after experiencing a cardiac arrest and have mild to moderate anxiety or depression. You should be between 65 and 74 years old or 29 to 219 years old, be able to understand Italian, and be comfortable using the internet. If you join the trial, you will have access to helpful resources and support through the web app, which aims to improve your emotional well-being and daily functioning. This study is currently recruiting participants, so if you think you might qualify, it could be a good opportunity to get support and help.
