Summary
This study tests a wellness program designed for Black patients aged 60 and older who are scheduled for surgery and have symptoms of depression or anxiety. The program includes up to 10 remote sessions before and after surgery, with optional faith-based counseling and family involvement. Researchers want to see if the program is practical and helpful for this group.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Wellness Program (behavioral intervention with counseling and support sessions)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a tailored wellness program helps older Black patients manage depression and anxiety around the time of surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early feasibility study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The program may not significantly improve mental health outcomes.
