Women who have experienced an early pregnancy loss (miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy) will be randomly allocated to either a brief cognitive intervention or a placebo activity. Participants will be followed up at week 1, 1 month and 3 months following the intervention. It is hypothesised that those allocated to receive the brief cognitive task-based intervention will develop fever intrusive memories, less severe mental health symptoms and better day to day functioning when compared to women allocated to the placebo activity.
This is a randomised controlled trial designed to investigate the impact of a brief-cognitive task based intervention on intrusive memories, mental health symptoms and daily functioning, in women following an early pregnancy loss.
