The feasibility of conducting non-pharmacological research studies in participants with mania: a grounded theory qualitative analysis of the Ottawa Sunglasses at Night study
This study identified themes from the experiences of participants and clinicians of the clinical trial that contribute to the feasibility and acceptability of blue-blocking glasses as an intervention for mania. The results of this qualitative study will inform implementation practices for clinical trials investigating non-pharmacological interventions for hospitalized individuals with mania and related acute psychiatric conditions which affect judgement.
