Summary

This study tested an 8-week cognitive training program delivered via telehealth for veterans recovering from alcohol use disorder. The goal was to see if the program was feasible and acceptable to participants. Nineteen veterans took part, and the study focused on recruitment, retention, and satisfaction.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Compensatory Cognitive Training (CCT) delivered via telehealth
What this could lead to
If this approach works, it could offer a practical way to help veterans with alcohol use disorder improve thinking skills and reduce relapse risk.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 19 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral and may not work for everyone.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Male and female Veterans (\>18 years) who meet criteria for AUD in early remission (\>1 month, \<12 months remission) based on the DSM-5 (American Psychiatric Association, 2013) * Concern about a mild cognitive decline that has been identified by the Veteran or a knowledgeable informant (e.g., SUD treatment providers), and the Veteran wants treatment for their cognitive concerns * Access to internet and webcam.
