Study Summary

This trial will study whether digital cognitive behavioral therapy (dCBT) is an acceptable treatment for generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) in people with cardiovascular disease (CVD), and whether it is better than a waitlist control condition.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who've had a recent acute cardiovascular event like a heart attack or stroke and are experiencing anxiety. They must be past the initial recovery phase, which means at least 2 months since their cardiac event, and have clinical levels of generalized anxiety.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a digital Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (dCBT) app called Daylight to see if it helps people with heart disease manage anxiety and improve health behaviors. Participants will either use the dCBT app or be put on a waitlist as part of the control group.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves digital therapy rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, users may experience discomfort or emotional distress when confronting anxious thoughts during therapy.
