Comparison of Prolonged Exposure vs Cognitive Processing Therapy for Treatment of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Among US Veterans
Overview
This randomized clinical trial compares the effectiveness of Prolonged Exposure (PE) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for treating PTSD among US veterans across 17 Department of Veterans Affairs medical centers. The study evaluates changes in PTSD symptom severity, functioning, and quality of life following 10 to 14 sessions of either therapy. Results indicate substantial improvement in both groups, with PE showing a greater mean improvement in symptom severity compared to CPT.
