Acceptability and efficacy of the Zemedy app versus a relaxation training and meditation app for IBS: protocol for a randomised controlled trial.INTRODUCTION
 Our proposed solution is a CBT-based smartphone app, Zemedy.


 This randomised controlled trial of Zemedy (V.2.0) uses an education and relaxation training active control app meant to simulate treatment as usual.  A target N of 300 participants complete baseline questionnaires and consent at screening, and are then allocated to either the immediate treatment (Zemedy) or the active control.  Treatment lasts 8 weeks, after which both groups complete the same battery used at baseline, and the control group is crossed over to Zemedy.  We hypothesise that the Zemedy app will outperform the active control app in reducing IBS symptom severity and improving HRQL.


 The data gathered may help establish the Zemedy app as an empirically supported intervention for IBS and will assist funding bodies in deciding whether to invest in its further development and dissemination.
