LIFEwithIBD: Living With Intention, Fullness and Engagement With Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Inflammatory Bowel DiseasesThis investigation aims to apply and test the feasibility of an acceptance, mindfulness and compassionate-based intervention structured for inflammatory bowel disease patients. LIFEwithIBD programme for inflammatory bowel disease thus comprises 9 weekly group sessions, lasting 1 and a half hour each, run in small groups at a Gastroenterology Service at the Coimbra's University Hospital. For each week participants have assigned homework (e.g., mindfulness exercises). The efficacy of LIFE-IBD Group Intervention to improve quality of life, mental health, and disease activity-related scores will be tested in a sample of Portuguese patients. Additionally, this study expected that the observable changes after the intervention completion will be attributed to changes in emotional regulation processes and maintained over the follow-up periods.

Digital Behavioral Interventions in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Crohn DiseaseUlcerative Colitis5 moreGiven the bidirectionality between psychological distress and disease activity in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), whereby increased psychological distress exacerbates disease activity and vice versa, psychosocial aspects of IBD care are receiving increased attention. However, proposed interventions are generally resource-intensive and have been tested in majority white populations. While people of color are an increasing segment of the IBD population, they are currently underrepresented in research studies. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and implementation of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) among IBD patients of color with elevated psychological distress.

FatigueInflammatory Bowel DiseaseFatigue is a common symptom in inflammatory bowel diseaseI and persists despite clinical remission. Fatigue in patients with chronic diseases can be objectified by the FACIT-F scale. Acupuncture has been shown useful in the treatment of fatigue in various chronic diseases.

Patients with inflammatory bowel disease and severe fatigue (FACIT-F score <38) who agree to participate in the study will be randomized to three different treatments: electroacupuncture vs. sham electroacupuncture vs. control group.
