The broader impact/commercial potential of this I-Corps project is the development of a cost-effective, convenient, and time efficient solution to address post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The public health crisis following the trauma of COVID-19 requires new solutions to increase healing and improve outcomes. This technology seeks to connect patients with an anonymous community forum, eye movement desensitization reprocessing, meditation, and yoga. Core algorithms will be used to assess treatment options for post-traumatic stress disorder.This I-Corps project is based on the development of software to facilitate healing of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), while decreasing the cost of care and improving outcomes of those suffering from PTSD. The COVID-19 pandemic has created trauma, disability, and death in the U.S. The incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) incidence related to COVID-19 is approximately 30% of the U.S. population. This technology seeks to advance a core set of algorithms that diagnosis patients, determining if they are positive for PTSD and improving their awareness of treatment options. The approach involves an agile methodology that emphasizes iteration and implementation of continuous feedback from the patient. The proposed innovation involves software that may help those navigating post-traumatic stress disorder through a set of core algorithms to minimize barriers and improve access to resources. This technology may be able to decrease costs associated with diagnosis and improve the ease with which healthcare is provided at a location that the patient prefers, such as at home.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这个I-Corps项目的更广泛的影响/商业潜力是开发一种具有成本效益、方便和时间效率的解决方案来解决创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）。COVID-19创伤后的公共卫生危机需要新的解决方案来增加愈合和改善结果。这项技术旨在将患者与匿名社区论坛、眼动脱敏再处理、冥想和瑜伽联系起来。 核心算法将用于评估创伤后应激障碍的治疗方案。这个I-Corps项目的基础是开发软件，以促进创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）的愈合，同时降低护理成本，改善创伤后应激障碍患者的预后。COVID-19大流行在美国造成了创伤、残疾和死亡。与COVID-19相关的创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）发病率约占美国人口的30%。这项技术旨在推进一套核心算法，用于诊断患者，确定他们是否对PTSD呈阳性，并提高他们对治疗方案的认识。该方法涉及一种敏捷方法，强调迭代和实施来自患者的持续反馈。拟议中的创新涉及软件，可以帮助那些通过一套核心算法来最大限度地减少障碍并改善资源获取的创伤后应激障碍。这项技术可能能够降低与诊断相关的成本，并提高在患者喜欢的地点（如家中）提供医疗保健的便利性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
