Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a 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.

Probably 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.

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.

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 gone: 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.
