Resumen
Este estudio piloto demuestra que es factible y aceptable una intervención de cuidados escalonados para la angustia psicológica en Jordania. El enfoque de cuidado escalonado demostró una reducción de los síntomas de depresión en comparación con una sola intervención, lo que informó un ECA definitivo.
Área de la Ciencia:
- Intervenciones en salud mental
- Investigación en la atención primaria de la salud
- Diseño del ensayo clínico
Sus antecedentes:
- La angustia psicológica es una preocupación importante para la salud pública.
- Los modelos de atención escalonada ofrecen un enfoque flexible para el tratamiento de la salud mental.
- Los estudios piloto son cruciales para perfeccionar las intervenciones antes de los ensayos a gran escala.
Objetivo del estudio:
- Para probar una intervención de cuidado escalonado para la angustia psicológica en Jordania.
- Evaluar la seguridad, la aceptabilidad y el cumplimiento de la intervención.
- Examinar los procedimientos de ensayo para un futuro ensayo controlado aleatorio definitivo (ECA).
Principales métodos:
- Se llevó a cabo un ECA piloto paralelo de doble brazo y en un solo grupo ciego en centros de atención primaria.
- Se reclutaron 145 adultos con una angustia psicológica significativa (puntuación ≥20 en la Escala de angustia psicológica de Kessler).
- Los participantes recibieron un programa de cuidado escalonado (autoayuda guiada + programa de grupo) o autoayuda guiada sola, junto con el tratamiento mejorado como de costumbre.
Principales resultados:
- La intervención de cuidados escalonados (Doing What Matters + Group Problem Management Plus) fue factible y aceptable cuando fue administrada por no especialistas capacitados.
- Los participantes en el brazo de cuidados escalonados mostraron síntomas de depresión significativamente menores después de la intervención y en el seguimiento de 3 meses en comparación con el brazo de intervención única.
- Los procedimientos de prueba fueron aceptables para todas las partes interesadas, lo que demuestra su viabilidad en el contexto jordano.
Conclusiones:
- Los resultados del proyecto piloto respaldan la aplicación de un modelo de atención escalonada para la angustia psicológica en Jordania.
- Este estudio proporciona datos esenciales para informar a un ECA definitivo sobre la eficacia clínica y la rentabilidad.
- El uso de trabajadores de la salud no especializados capacitados es una estrategia viable para la prestación de intervenciones de salud mental.

Social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, is characterized by an intense fear of social situations where one might face humiliation, rejection, embarrassment, or negative evaluation. This disorder leads individuals to avoid activities like casual conversations, public speaking, or seemingly simple tasks such as eating, signing documents, or swimming, in public settings. Its impact extends beyond discomfort, often significantly interfering with daily functioning and quality of life.
