Intervention

Arm Description

Participants meeting eligibility criteria will participate in the Mind Body Program for Vascular Disease, working in-person or via telehealth with a study interventionist for an hour weekly in 6-8 week cycles learning problem-solving techniques targeting mood/distress and enhancing disease management strategies. Participants will be assessed at baseline, 3-months, and 6-months.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in PAD-Specific Health Status on the Peripheral Artery Questionnaire (PAQ)
The PAQ Summary Score is a 20-item, validated, self-report instrument quantifying patients' disease specific health status. The measure is comprised of 6 domains including physical limitations, symptoms, symptom stability, social functioning, treatment satisfaction, and quality of life. Total scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicate better functioning. Change will be determined using comparisons between baseline and 6 months.
Change in Depressive Symptoms assessed by Symptom Checklist-20 (SCL-20)
Patient depressive symptoms will be measured using the SCL-20. The SCL-20 is a 20-item, validated, self-report instrument assessing depressive symptom intensity. Total scores range from 0 to 80, with higher score indicating higher depressive symptom intensity. Change will be determined using comparisons between baseline, 3 months and 6 months.
Change in Depressive Symptoms assessed by Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9)
Patient depressive symptoms will be measured using the 9-item PHQ-9. PHQ-9 is a 9-item validated questionnaire used to screen for depression with a range of scores from 0-45. A cumulative score of ≥10 is considered positive with lower scores indicating no or mild anxiety. Change will be determined by whether sufficient improvement is demonstrated between initial screening, baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Sufficient improvement is defined as a 30% improvement if the prior depression score was between 5-10, or a 50% improvement if the score was greater than 20.
Change in Stress Symptoms assessed using Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10)
Patient distress levels will be measured using the 10-item PSS-10. The PSS-10 is a 10-item, validated, self-report, questionnaire used to assess perceived control and confidence in managing stressful situations over the past month. Scores range from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicated higher levels of perceived stress. Change will be determined by whether sufficient improvement is demonstrated between initial screening up to 6 months. Sufficient improvement is defined as moving from a high stress (score 27-40 on PSS-10) to a moderate stress (score 14-26).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in Care Satisfaction using COPES Satisfaction with Depression Question
Patient satisfaction with the care they receive participating in the Mind Body Program for Vascular Disease will be measures using the single item COPES Satisfaction with Depression Question. This item asks patients to rate the quality of professional care they have received for their symptoms of distress or depression over the last 2 months. Scores range from 1 (Excellent) to 5 (Poor), with higher scores indicating worse satisfaction. Patients who did not receive care for distress or depression symptoms have the option to indicate this as their response. Change will be determined using comparisons between baseline and 6 months.
