Full title: "One Step at a Time" - an Internet-delivered Treatment for Patients Moderately Impaired by Bodily Distress Syndrome. A Feasibility Pilot Study

Brief Summary:
This uncontrolled feasibility pilot study explores the acceptability and potential effect of a 14 week, 11-module, therapist-assisted, internet-delivered treatment program, "One step at the time", for patients moderately affected by Bodily Distress Syndrome. The study includes 25 participants aged 18-60 with multiple functional somatic symptoms for a duration of minimum 6 months. The focus of the feasibility trial is evaluation of treatment response, treatment satisfaction, program utility, recruitment and retention rates, data completion rates, and time requirement. The primary feasibility criterion is a +2.0 points change in patient-rated physical health measured by the SF-36 aggregate score physical health from before to after treatment.

What does one step at the time even mean?

From the trial listing,

"Intervention

Behavioral: Internet-delivered treatment: "One step at the time"

The guided internet treatment program consists of 11 modules (+ 1 module for relatives) activated consecutively over a period of 14 weeks. The content is written psychoeducation, patient videos, audio exercises and exposure exercises. The program is therapist-guided; hence all patients will receive support primarily from a specific therapist during the 14 weeks."

My guess is that they called it "One step at a time" to give the illusion that it is somehow connected with pacing.
