Identifying and Treating Depression in the Orthopaedic Trauma Population (NCT05976347)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this trial is to pilot a way for orthopaedic surgeons to safely screen for depression and provide treatment for depression with medication. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the outcomes of patients who screen positive for depressive symptoms and are prescribed either an Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) or serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRI). 2. What are the outcomes of patients who screen positive for depressive symptoms and choose not to pursue treatment with medication?
