Overview

The purpose of this study is to test internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder in a routine clinical setting in a rural part of Sweden.

Aim The aim of this study is to conduct a pragmatic evaluation of ICBT for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders and OCD within routine health care in a rural area. Research questions * Is ICBT an acceptable method for the patient group? * Is ICBT effective in a clinical setting? * Is further treatment needed after ICBT? * What are the long-term effects of ICBT? * What predicts treatment outcome? * How does ICBT work in a clincal setting? (time spent, negative effects etc)? Design This is a uncontrolled intervention study where included families and children will be recruited consecutively during two years from a routine care CAMHS unit. All participants will be offered ICBT and assessed pre- and post-treatment, and at three-month follow-up through clinician ratings and self-report measures. The primary outcome measure is clinician rated severity of principal disorder at three-month follow-up. Long-term results will be assessed through study of medical records two years after completed ICBT.
