Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intelligent Biometrics - Prolonged Exposure (Therapist Guided).Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
In the therapist-guided group, Study Therapists will virtually accompany patients during IVEs and use actionable biometric and subjective data during in vivo exposures (IVEs) (galvanic skin response [GSR], heart rate [HR], and subjective units of distress [SUDS]) to modify the assignments in real-time. All participants receive at least 10 sessions of prolonged exposure therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder.
Group II: Intelligent Biometrics - Prolonged Exposure (Record Only).Active Control1 Intervention
In the record-only group, passive data collection will be utilized to collect and store biometric and behavioral data for future offline analyses to investigate predictors of outcome. All participants receive at least 10 sessions of prolonged exposure therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder.
