Study Summary

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in bipolar disorder, yet no empirically validated psychosocial interventions to manage risk factors for CVD in BD have been developed. The purpose of this study is to develop and test the feasibility of an integrated treatment to decrease CVD risk factors, while exploring whether the intervention improves overall functioning and mood symptoms. The designed treatment integrates theories on Nutrition strategies, Exercise interventions, and Wellness Treatment (NEW Tx) to address risk factors for CVD that co-occur with bipolar disorder. NEW Tx includes novel intervention strategies in each of these three modules, as well as modified and tailored empirically-supported strategies for bipolar disorder. The primary hypotheses are that NEW Tx will be feasible to deliver, acceptable to this population, and associated with improvements in CVD risk factors (i.e., waist circumference). Exploratory analyses will examine predictors of treatment response and the effect of NEW Tx on mood symptoms and overall functioning.

Primary Outcome

NEW Tx Scale is a 10-item scale to asses participants' expectations of NEW Tx their acceptability of NEW Tx at Week 20. This scale also includes a comments section to solicit unstructured feedback from participants on NEW Tx. The scale for this item is a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 ("strongly agree") to 5 ("strongly disagree"). The score for each item is summed for a total score that ranges from 10 to 50 with higher scores indicating poorer perception of the treatment. TAU participants o
