Optimising the PTSD Hub App Through Co‐Production: Enhancing Digital Support for PTSD Management in Primary Care
Patients and members of the public were actively involved throughout this study using a co-production approach. A lived experience advisory panel of six individuals with PTSD provided input at all stages, including shaping the study design, reviewing participant materials, and advising on workshop facilitation. Additionally, 26 participants, comprising individuals with lived experience of PTSD, informal carers, and healthcare professionals, contributed to two Nominal Group Technique workshops. A lived experience research partner (NC) was an integral part of the research team, attended all team meetings, co-facilitated workshop sessions and contributed to design, analysis and manuscript preparation.
