A new but less studied strategy integrating personalized feedback intervention (PFI) with fear appeal has shown promise in modifying behavior.<h4>Novelty</h4>There is limited evidence to suggest that using patients' own videotaped recordings in a delirious state can reduce relapse and enhance abstinence. Our study evaluates the combined effect of both PFI and fear appeal on reducing alcohol use and prolonging abstinence.<h4>Objectives</h4>This study aims to evaluate the impact of PFI with fear appeal on alcohol consumption patterns in terms of duration of abstinence and amount of alcohol consumption in patients with delirium.<h4>Methods</h4>This open-label randomIndian journal of psychological medicine02537176261422286https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC12924772biostudies-literatureEffect of Personalized Feedback Intervention (PFI) with Fear Appeal on Alcohol Consumption Pattern in Patients with Alcohol-induced Delirium: Protocol of an Open-label Randomized Controlled Trial.PMC12924772Spoorthy MSAjay SMalathesh BCTikka SKJain VLakshmi SfalseEffect of Personalized Feedback Intervention (PFI) with Fear Appeal on Alcohol Consumption Pattern in Patients with Alcohol-induced Delirium: Protocol of an Open-label Randomized Controlled Trial.<h4>Background</h4>Alcohol dependence is prevalent, with significant morbidity and mortality linked to alcohol-induced delirium.
