About this study

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
