What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a case management algorithm that includes early phone contact for women who have experienced violence and are at risk for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Participants will be randomized into a group receiving the Vigitrauma intervention or a control group receiving standard care. The study will assess clinical outcomes after initial consultations in clinical forensic medicine units. The goal is to improve follow-up attendance and mental health outcomes for these women.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly improve mental health outcomes and support for women victims of violence.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown that decision-making algorithms using phone contact can be effective in improving outcomes for vulnerable populations, suggesting potential success for this approach.
