NCT06049433

Brief Summary

This hybrid effectiveness-implementation project will allow the team to evaluate and refine implementation in preparation for future multisite trials to ultimately move the Evidence-Based Intervention (EBI) to scale among diverse populations. The plan is to enroll 120 at-risk pregnant and postpartum women from rural, urban, and Latino populations. Using a randomized preference design to also evaluate patient and sociocultural factors in participation and symptom trajectory. Using the Implementation Research Logic Model, the team will evaluate the implementation feasibility and acceptability of a remote-access and on-demand MBCT PD prevention intervention that is integrated within maternal clinical care settings using an existing patient portal. Successful achievement of the study aims will result in a refined implementation protocol for future studies that are sufficiently powered to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated Digital Mental Health Technology and to estimate the cost/benefit ratio

Interventions

The intervention uses a standardized, manualized program (UPLIFT - Using Practice and Learning to Increase Favorable Thoughts) based on Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MBCT) in the prevention of depression in various populations and settings. MBCT can be delivered individually and in groups and via electronic platforms, in diverse populations. We have adapted UPLIFT for this study, based on input from focus groups and in response to the ongoing pandemic, and under the direction of our team's mental health professionals. Adaptations include access to asynchronous, on-demand multi-media MBCT content (digital audio-video files and downloadable content),
