Study Summary

This trial will assess the effectiveness of the Trauma Resilience and Recovery Program (TRRP) in helping adolescent patients recover from traumatic injuries, both physically and emotionally.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adolescents aged 12-17 who have been admitted to a hospital after a traumatic injury and are showing signs of distress. It's not suitable for those with self-inflicted injuries or severe conditions like head or spinal cord injuries that stop them from communicating.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is testing the Trauma Resilience and Recovery Program (TRRP), which uses technology to help improve quality of life and emotional recovery post-injury, against enhanced usual care in pediatric trauma centers.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since TRRP involves psychological support and use of technology rather than medication, typical medical side effects aren't expected. However, participants may experience varying emotional responses during the intervention.
