What this trial studies

This single-site observational project interviews 30 women enrolled in the EMBER intervention at the NCK outpatient clinic at Uppsala University Hospital. Researchers conduct one-hour, in-person, semi-structured interviews about each participant's life situation, self-perceived needs, resilience, and views on how the intervention met those needs. Interviews are audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed thematically to identify common perceptions and gaps. The goal is to understand patient experience across different stages of contact with the clinic and diverse backgrounds.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Women who are currently enrolled in the EMBER intervention at the NCK outpatient clinic at Uppsala University Hospital and willing to do a one-hour in-person interview are eligible.

Not a fit: Women who are not enrolled in EMBER, cannot attend in-person interviews, or whose safety would be compromised by participation are unlikely to benefit from this project.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could help the clinic better align the resilience-based program with patients' needs and improve support for women after partner violence.

How similar studies have performed: Similar qualitative studies have been used to refine services, and some resilience-based programs for intimate partner violence report promising patient-reported outcomes, though large controlled outcome trials are limited.
