NCT01901796

Brief Summary

We hypothesize that the intervention will: (1) offer a feasible approach for providing mental healthcare to pregnant women and have a high level of acceptability by pregnant women and healthcare providers; (2) reduce symptoms of depression, stress, anxiety, and parenting stress; improve parenting competence, coping, and relationship adjustment compared to usual care; and (3) reduce the risk of poor maternal-infant attachment. As such, this early intervention holds promise for reducing maternal mental health morbidity and its negative influences on infants, children, and families.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The primary outcome of this study is the feasibility/acceptability of integrated psychosocial care and its components.

    Feasibility/acceptability of the intervention will be assessed through individual face-to-face or telephone-based semi-structured qualitative interviews of both clinic staff and women in the intervention group. The field does not allow for all questions to be provided. Sample question for clinic staff is 'What aspects made it easy/challenging to use the tablet for prenatal assessment as part of routine prenatal care?' Sample questions for intervention group participants: 1)How did you feel about answering these kinds of questions on a tablet?; 2)Please describe any concerns you had about answering these questions on a tablet; 3)How would you prefer the results to be shared with you
